"I like you onyx! I LIKE YOU A LOT!" I say tearing up. His mouth drops but no words come out. "Every moment wit you feels euphoric onyx. I don't wanna hide being wit you or just being yo baby mom, I want to be the girl you can love with no fears. I wanna be your girlfriend or your future wife!" I say standing up facing away from him. "I- I really do like you Lani more than you'll ever know it's just I'm not good for you, i don't wanna break your heart because I can't love correctly" I feel him grab my arm and turn me around, his face full of sadness and pain. "I do have feelings for you, I do wanna love again but I can't" he says and a tear falls down his face breaking my heart. "Just try with me, we can take it day by day" I flash him a small smile. "You promise?" He asks and I nod holding his hand. "I promise, I got your back Jabari. always" I say and he starts to tear up for the first time ever and it made me cry too. I pull him into a hug wrapping my arms around his neck as he wraps his hands around my waist leaving some room for my baby bump so that I could feel comfortable. #1 Black love book #1 Atlanta book 1/28/2025 - 2/6/2025 #1 babymama book 2/28/2025 - 3/15/2025 #2 twinbabies book #5 babydaddy book
