"I made pancakes!" Ray smiled walking into the living room with a tray of pancakes
"Ayeee" Christopher yelled taking the first one off the top
"It's Richard Snr's recipe so enjoy boys" She smiled
"Urgh Erick can i marry her instead i promise i'll give her back after 20 years" Joel moaned with a mouthful of pancake
"No thanks" Erick siad hugging Ray into his side "mine"
"All yours" Ray mumbled kissing him

Just then Aleesha came down the stairs holding Aaliyah's hand.
"I'm going out" she announced
"Good morning everyone, how did you sleep? i slept great thanks Aleesha" Richard said mockingly "now where you are you going?"
"Last time i checked you were Aaliyah's father not mine" Aleesha spat
"You havn't slept home for the past 2 days, you're being cold towards me and giving me attitude what's up with you?" Richard asked his girlfriend

"What's wrong with me? what's wrong with me is i put up with your bullshit Richard. I tolerate a lot of your crap and without question, you need me here? i'm there. want me to do this? i'm doing it but all for what? You made arrangements for Aaliyah to come over and didn't consult me? i ran around the entire day catering to your daughters needs i'm not a fucking babysitter Richard, nor am i your fucking slave. I'm just about done with your crap" Aleesha unleashed

The room had now fallen silent, Richard say dumbfounded looking at Aleesha. The only sound was the TV that played Basketball wives but that was long forgotten about. Aleesha gave Richard one more look before walking out the door and slamming it

"I'll go see if she's okay" Ray mumbled running after her best friend

She caught her in the drive way, just in time. Ray pulled Aleesha into her arms and let her cry into her chest as she mumbled her frustrations to her. Ray knew how Aleesha felt, it must feel like shit. Once Aleesha had calm down Ray told her to get into the car and wait for her there while she got her things

"Where is she?" Richard asked Ray the moment she came in
"In the car but" Ray grabbed Richards arm "give her some space"
"How am i supposed to give her space, that's all i've been giving her and if she feels like this about it then-
"Look Richard, if there's one thing i've learnt about Aleesha is listening to her never helps solve the problem, you need to hear her" Ray said and with that she grabbed her bag and walked out

Ray drove Aleesha to the one place she knew could get her mind off things, and that was the mall.
"a little retail therapy could do you some good" Ray smiled at her best friend
"I'm just so tired Ray" Aleesha said "mentally, emotionally and physically"

Ray nodded
"Work has me going up the wall, on top of that it's the frustrations of Richard not listening to me and a good fuck from him could get me to relax about work but i'm mad at him which makes me more frustrated" Aleesha sighed
"Girl just let the man fuck you" Ray laughed as they sifted through the many clothes
"Ain't no dick making me give up standing my ground girl" Aleesha laughed
"See there's the laugh we missed" Ray smiled

Back at home Richard couldn't get his mind off of what both Ray and Kat had said to him. He was listening to Aleesha but hearing the same thing, a reoccurring theme to her frustrations. He sighed and walked into Zabdiel's room knowing he was the only level headed man to give advice

"Hey man" Richard said
"You good? I mean after Aleesha's outburst this morning" Zabdiel asked sitting up straight on his bed
"Yeah, I mean i never realised how much it meant to her or how much it hurt her you know" Richard shrugged "i mean most of the time whenever we spoke about marriage she seemed very understanding about me not wanting to rush things"
"So here's the million dollar question, do you want to marry her?" Zabdiel asked
"I can't imagine my life outside of her" Richard admitted
"Then there's your answer" Zabdiel said with a small smile
"Anyways, things good between you and Aaliyah?"

Zabdiel sighed, he'd been hiding his feelings so well. Smiling when he was supposed to, cracking jokes but in actual fact he was slipping, slipping into a dark hole of depression, he was sure he had forgotten to feed Appa for the past few days had it not been for Joel he would have died.

"I think about what i said to her before she left every night before i close my eyes. I can't sleep or eat without thinking of her or how she is. She hasn't answered a single one of my texts or dms and to be honest i think when she comes back she's going to break up with me and i deserve it" Zabdiel rambled
"Look man i suck at giving advice but if i were you, i'd take the first flight to Mexico to get my girlfriend back" Richard shrugged "or the next best thing, squeeze it out of Ray, she'll crack the easiest"
"Thanks man" Zabdiel sighed

Downstairs Erick sat on his guitar strumming, checking out different cords when Christopher walked down.
"Hey man can i talk to you?" Erick asked halting Chris's movements.
"Sure what's up?" Christopher said sitting down
"I wanted to apologize about Puerto Rico and all, i was just under pressure with the whole secret but i didn't wanna tell Ray-
"Look man i get it, there were just other ways to go about it. Ray is a cool girl, she's my baby sister i'd take her over you any day she doesn't deserve what happened to her.m" Christopher shrugged "next time you pull thay i break your kneecaps"
"Awwww did my 2 favourite men aside from my celebrity crush and dad make up?" Ray awed from the door
"How much of that did you hear?" Christopher asked
"Just about how i'm a cool girl, your baby sister, you'd pick me over Erick-
"So everything?" Christopher groaned
"And you'll never hear the end of it" Aleesha laughed

"Hey Ray, can i talk to you for a minute?" Zabdiel asked from the stairs.
Ray looked at the boys who shrugged "sure"

She ran up and followed Zabidel to his bedroom where he let her in before standing at the door and locking it
"Zabdiel, you do know I'm engaged, and i don't see you like that" Ray said eying him
"And i don't see you like that either" Zabdiel said in disgust
"Thank God" Ray sighed in relief "so what do you want?"
"Are you pregnant?" He blurted making Ray freeze
"Yeah" Ray said "5 months"
"Wasn't it 4?" Zabdiel said quickly
"I said 5" Ray stood "if this is what you're going to press me about you can let me go"
"No, i wanna know where Aaliyah is, why she's not answering my calls and texts and when she's coming back" Zabdiel listed
"Mexico, because you're an asshole and not any time soon" Ray answered swiftly "can i go?"

Zabdiel eyed Ray suspiciously, he unlocked and leaned off the door, opening it.
"Before you go, i want one last request" Zabdiel said "Video call her from your phone so i can see her"
"And if i refuse?" Ray asked
"Then you can enjoy my room because you're not going anywhere" Zabdiel threatened

Ray came up to him, looking him straight in the eye before slipping through the door and making a run for it, Zabdiel followed closely behind getting a hold of her just before she got to the stairs.

"Let go of me!" Ray yelled shrugging in his grasp
"Dude what are you doing?" Richard asked
"Squeezing it out of her!" Zabdiel said breathlessly
"Zabdiel yo what the fuck let go of her!" Erick yelled

Zabdiel let go of Ray, letting her fall to the ground. Everyone was looking at him as if he had grown 5 heads. He turned on his heel and made his way to his room where he slammed the door and sat on the bed. He grabbed his phone and began looking at his pictures with Aaliyah, videos of her laughing, his smile quickly turned to tears as he cried himself to sleep
