AUTHORS NOTE:
For the readers that were here since the beginning, I changed the main characters name to Cairi. A friend of mine pointed out the name Leila sounded really close to my moms name and once she said that, I couldn't get it out of my head 😂😂😂 so her name is now Cairi.
The girls must've had fun at Mikayla's because they were out before I was even done reading them their bedtime story. I was glad they went to sleep fast tonight because I was totally in my own head. I laid on my bed staring up at the ceiling, wondering what I was going to do about what went down between Malakai and I the past couple of days. Thinking about the stuff he was involved in made me uneasy. Mainly because I didn't know exactly what it was, but I knew it was bad.
A loud vibration on my nightstand startled me. I rolled over to pick up my phone and see who was hitting me up.
*1 Unread Message From Malakai*
*I won't be back in town until the end of the week. Can I see you then?*
I feel my heart rate increase and my stomach do back flips. I hit reply.
*Just let me know 😘*
I send it and see him typing almost immediately.
*Goodnight beautiful.*
I catch myself smiling at my phone like a complete idiot.
"Momma."
I'm pulled away from my phone to see Akila standing in the doorway of my room. I sit up, worried.
"What's wrong baby?"
She rubs her eyes from sleep. "Can I sleep with you?"
I don't hesitate to stand up and walk over to pick her up. I smile at her and give her a kiss on the cheek.
"Of course amor."
I carry her to the bed and tuck her in, stroking her hair to help her fall back asleep.
I lay down next to her and soon let myself drift to sleep as well.
