Out in the parking lot, when we were waiting for Valet, she was so livid with my ass that she was crying, which didn’t do shit but show that her hormones were kicking in. If she was pregnant, she and I needed to have a little talk because I meant everything that was whispered into her ear that night.
So, here I was, parking my car in the driveway of her townhouse and hoping to just get some type of conversation from her ass. It had been a week of zero communication because she had me blocked. Her petty ass even blocked me on the kids’ phones and their iPads. I hated to just pop up on her like this, but I was desperate. I desperately wanted my wife back.
Her car wasn’t in the driveway, but there were lights on inside the house, so I went ahead and knocked. No one came. I knocked again and again, and suddenly, I could feel footsteps coming to the door. There was a window next to the front door, and I saw someone look through the curtain. I smiled when I saw that it w
as Journey. I watched as my daughter rolled her eyes at me, looking like every bit of her mother, before she turned the doorknob.
She stood before me with her hands folded, and I didn’t know who hated me more at that point; her or her mama.
“Daddy can’t get a hug?” I asked her, and she ignored me. “Where your mama at? Her car isn’t in the driveway,” I asked.
“She’s not here. She went to pick something up for dinner, but she should be back in a minute. Why are you here? Mommy doesn’t want you here, and you know that,” she had the nerve to say.
She even tried to close the door in my face, but I used my foot to stop her. I had to remind myself that this same girl came from of my nut sack because I was seconds away from knocking her ass clean out. I loved Journey, Lord knows I did, but I’d been having my doubts about her lately. Maybe it was because I was entertaining the things that my mother had been saying about her possibly not being mine. It’s just that she and I didn’t share any of the same traits. She was every bit of her mother, while we really didn’t have much in common, especially in terms of looks. I could be talking crazy, or maybe it was the fact that this little girl was about to close the door in my face that had me even entertaining this mess.
I took Takari’s absence as an opportunity for me to walk into the house. This was my first time inside her home, and I had to admit that it was beautiful inside. Takari always had a good eye for interior design, so I wasn’t shocked that she had the place all nice, looking like it deserved to be in one of those home décor magazines.
I quickly jogged up the stairs, and I walked into the first room that I saw with the door open, which was Journey’s room. She was inside her room. Knowing Journey, she was probably downstairs on the phone, letting her mother know that I’d come inside the house.
I walked out and then I went further down. It led me to Jaden’s room. He wasn’t inside, so I walked down the hallway a little further, and now I was in Jada’s room. They were lying in the bed together asleep. I loved my kids, so instantly, I walked over to them and kissed them both on their foreheads before I walked back out.
Takari’s room was across the hall from them, and her door was open, so I walked inside. I laughed to myself when I saw that her little ass had the nerve to have this big ass king sized bed to herself, knowing damn well that that was too much bed for her. Pictures were hung up on the wall of just her and the kids. I examined the room a little more, and I saw that she had Fleurs de Paris roses on her nightstand. Everyone knew that those roses were like the Chanel of roses, so I quickly walked my ass over to the dresser just to see if she’d left the card, but she hadn’t.
After I finished looking around in her room, I walked inside her bathroom, which was adjacent to the bedroom. First thing I noticed on the counter was the Upspring Morning Sickless Drops, which was a dead giveaway that my suspicions were right about her being pregnant. I could feel myself beginning to sweat, and my hands also began to sweat, which showed that I was getting angrier by the second.
Right when I was getting ready to walk out of her bathroom, I saw a pink box sticking from the trash can. I walked over, and with shaky hands, I removed the First Response box. The tests were inside, and all three of them had been taken. Like I had been run over by a truck, every bone in my body ached when I saw that all three were indeed positive.
“What the fuck are you doing going through my things? Jerrod, get the hell out right now! I swear to God I will call the police on you!” I heard Takari’s voice.
I was so wrapped up in snooping through her stuff that I never even heard her come in the house. She snatched the pregnancy tests from my hand and held them in hers. I examined her up and down in the gray sweat suit that she was wearing along with her house shoes and her long hair going back in two French braids, and I was hurt. I had loved this woman since I was a teenager, yet this was how she does me! Me, of all people!
“Who’s it by?” was the first thing that I asked her.
She let out a sarcastic laugh while shaking her head.
“You really have some fuckin’ nerve! Just know that you could never compare to him. Why are you here, Jerrod? Listen, I do not feel good, and the only thing I’m trying to do is crawl back in my bed and go to sleep, so can you please get the fuck out so I can do that?” she asked, standing by the bathroom door and gesturing with her hands for me to leave, but I wasn’t going no damn where.
“I’m your husband, Takari, and you will not stand here and disrespect me like this. Have some fuckin’ respect for the last eighteen years that you and I have shared! This is what I want you to do because I think you have a hard time hearing. First thing in the morning, I want you on the phone with a fuckin’ clinic, so we can go ahead and dead this shit. All will be forgiven after this. I promise I’ll never bring up you being a fuckin’ hoe and allowing yourself to have raw sex with the first man you find ever again. I won’t talk about how classless you are for getting yourself pregnant after us just separating for not even a year yet! I won’t bring it up. I promise I won’t,” I let her know.
Those probably weren’t the right words for me to say to her, but this was how I felt. I was disgusted with her that she could move on so fast. I grew up in a home with both parents, and I witnessed a lot of things take place between them. There was no such thing as a perfect couple, so, of course, my parents argued. Of course, there were nights when they wouldn’t sleep in the same bedroom. Of course, there were times when they would go days without speaking to each other and would use myself or my brothers to relay messages to them, but damn, that’s as far as it went.
I was wrong too for sleeping with Valentina, but what I did couldn’t even compare to this shit that Takari was pulling. She was a whole fuckin married woman with another man’s seed inside of her.
“If that’s what you came over here for, you can leave. You can call me every hoe, slut, and trick in the book, but that won’t make me get an abortion. Now, if you don’t mind, I—”
Pow!
I don’t know what came over me, but I found myself raising my foot when she turned around, and I kicked the shit out of her, making her fall straight on her face. It was already too late. I’d already lost it. I walked over to her and flipped her body on her back. My hands went for her waist, and I squeezed. I squeezed where her stomach was, basically trying to kill that baby right out of her. The whole time, she was screaming and crying at the stop of her lungs, telling me to stop, but I wouldn’t; hell, I couldn’t. I’d already transition from being Jerrod to the devil. I knew that I wasn’t myself because all I really saw was darkness around me as I bent over Takari and assaulted her.
“Daddy… noooo! What are you doing? Get off mommy!” My five-year-old daughter was the first one in the room, followed by her brother and her big sister.
Tears were falling from my eyes, but I was already in too deep to stop now. Jada’s small hands had gone for my face, and she was trying to scratch me. I lost it and pushed her little ass out of the way. She fell down on her ass, hitting her head on the back of the dresser. Loud screams filled her mouth, but that didn’t stop her from jumping up again and coming back over with her brother and sister, who were screaming and telling me to get off their mother.
“See what the fuck you did, Takari? See what you did?” I asked, raising my hand and slapping the shit out of her. “You did this! You’re the reason why my kids have to see me act like this. Did you tell them? Did you tell them how much of a hoe you are and how you’re pregnant with another man’s child? I bet you didn’t because you always try to make yourself look good and make me look bad in front of them, you slut!” I yelled.
I was so disgusted with her that I hocked up a big ass load of spit, and it landed right in her face. Spitting on someone was like the ultimate level of disrespect, but she’d caused me to do all of this. All three kids were screaming to the top of their lungs, trying to get me off her, but they couldn’t handle me.
“You going to get an abortion, o
