“You real dumb for that. You lucky that man didn’t kill your ass,” she said. I was so annoyed, and Breesha wasn’t making the shit no better.
“Where he at anyway?” she asked, noticing that Rashard wasn’t there.
“He talking about he had to go to the shop to handle some business with his lying ass. He just want to go over there and be around those dirty bitches that be all in his face,” I said pissed.
Breesha laughed, “Imani, you need help girl. I’m about to go. I don’t want to be nowhere near here when Shard come home,” she said, standing up. We walked in the den, and Bria was knocked out on the couch.
“She do this every time. She be hard down crying for me to put on Frozen for her, and she always end up falling asleep,” Breesha said, walking over to Bria and picking her up from off the couch. She carried Bria, with her head resting on her shoulder. After she turned around, I walked them to the front door.
“Alright Mani, call me later. And don’t do no dumb shit when Rashard come home. Remember, your ass is pregnant, you don’t need to do nothing that can or will harm the baby,” she preached.
I nodded my head and closed the door. I activated the alarm system and climbed the stairs and walked inside the bedroom. I got in the bed and sent Rashard a text.
Me: When are you coming home?
Shard: When I’m ready!
Me: Fuck you! You can stay your ass out there all damn day for all I care!
Shard: You need a nap! Take your ass to sleep and stop trying to start shit. I’ll be home by the time you wake up.
I didn’t even respond to his ass. I sat my phone on the nightstand and crawled under the covers. I laid there for a few minutes, just thinking how my life was getting ready to change in a few more months. Hearing my baby’s heart beat today had me ready for him or her to enter this world. I no longer was going to live my life trying to satisfy my mother. If me having a baby wasn’t good enough for her and would cause her to turn her back on me, then fuck her–straight up. After over thinking myself into a headache, I threw the covers over my head, and I was knocked out in about two minutes. Rashard was right–I did need a nap!
Chapter 3: Breesha
I was so damn tired. I’d been up since 6:30 this morning because Bria spent the night with us last night, and I had to wake up early to get her ready for school. It was 6 p.m. now, and I was just walking in the house. Bria’s mom, Sharice, picked her up from school today. I planned on going home to my house tonight but Dontae insisted on me coming over to his house, and the nigga wasn’t even here yet. I took off my heels and headed upstairs. I just needed a minute to sit down. I had been on my feet all day, and I didn’t even get a chance to take my break because it was so busy in my store all day.
After sitting on the bed for another ten minutes, I eventually got up and went inside of the closet and searched to see if I had any more clean pajamas left over here. I couldn’t find any, so I went inside Dontae’s dresser and pulled out an old Miami heat jersey. I had clean panties and bras over here, so I took them from out of the drawer as well.
Twenty minutes later, I was stepping out of the shower with the towel wrapped around my body. I dried my body off, lotioned myself with my Love Spell lotion by Victoria’s Secret, and threw on the jersey, which stopped mid-thigh. I slipped into my house shoes and headed downstairs to cook something up. I decided that I would prepare baked chicken, yellow rice, and vegetables. If it was up to me I wouldn’t have ate, but I knew that Dontae would come home from work hungry, and what type of girlfriend would I be if I didn’t feed my man? I was back and forth between the kitchen and the den, trying to watch Empire and cook at the same time. If Dontae was here right now, he would have cursed me out. He hated when I cooked and tried to watch TV at the same time. He swore that I was going to fuck around and burn up the damn house.
Forty-five minutes later, I was taking the chicken from out the oven. I heard when Dontae came in the house. He stood behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist. His tall and muscular frame towered over my small, short frame. He easily lifted me up and sat me down on the counter. I wrapped my arms around his neck, while he proceeded to kiss me on my lips. I loved kissing my man. His lips were so full and juicy. If I could, I would lay up under him and kiss him all day.
“I missed you all day,” I said after I pulled away from him.
“Really? I can’t tell with that slick shit you was spitting on the phone earlier. Acting like you didn’t want to spend the night over here with a nigga,” he said, and the scowl that he was sporting made him look even sexier.
“Baby, don’t act like that. If anything I don’t have any more clothes over here, that’s why I wanted to go to my house,” I said, kissing those irresistible lips again.
“I keep telling your little hard-headed ass to just move in here with a nigga. You not tired of going back and forth from your house and mine?” Dontae asked me, aggravated.
I jumped down off the counter, because I wasn’t in the mood to have this conversation with him again. Yes, I loved Dontae, but I didn’t know if I was ready to move in with him yet. Plus, I didn’t want to leave Mani by herself at the house either, es
pecially while she was pregnant.
“So you just gon’ act like you ain’t hear a nigga, right?” Dontae asked me.
“Baby I hear you, just give me some time to think about it,” I said, turning off the rice cooker.
“Man Breesha, you been saying that same shit for weeks now. What’s so fuckin hard about moving in here?” he asked. I sucked my teeth and walked into the den, and sat down on the couch.
“You selfish as hell yo,” Dontae said, then went upstairs.
If me not knowing whether or not I was ready to move in with him made me selfish, then so be it. I had to really take the time out and think about that before I jumped into a big decision like that. Most times, relationships didn’t work out because the couples moved way too fast. I didn’t want that to happen with Dontae and I. I didn’t want to make any mistakes with him that would cause us to break up. I knew for a fact that this was the man that I wanted to be with in the long run, so with that being said, I was going to hold off for a while until I made that big step. Right now, I’m about to eat, feed my man, and fuck him real good because I didn’t want him mad at me.

Life for me had been okay for the most part. Since I started taking classes though, I felt like I rarely saw my husband anymore. He would be at the studio during the day, while I would be home. I had classes Monday through Thursday at night, so when I would leave to go out, Sincere still wouldn’t be home. My night class was from 7 p.m. until 10:30 p.m. Some nights when I would come home, Sin would be home but he would be sleep, or some nights he wouldn’t be home at all; but for the most part, I had been keeping myself extremely busy, and I wasn’t constantly calling my husband trying to see about his whereabouts. I hated that every night I had to drive and get my daughter from my mom’s house when I would get from class. I would feel so sorry for my baby, because she would be so tired the next morning getting ready for school. I didn’t want to put the hassle on my mother by letting Janiya sleep over there throughout the week, which is why I went and picked her up every night.
