"So you haven't talked to Korie since the middle of January?"

"Well, yeah I've talked to him, he drops Lyric off, and he checks on the baby, and he goes to the baby's appointments." She said scrolling down Instagram. "But we haven't been together since the middle of January."

"Why didn't you tell me? I thought you guys were fine." I said furrowing my eyebrows.

"I didn't wanna put our business out there, plus I thought we'd be back together by now. But he hasn't even brought up anything about getting back together or working things out. The baby will be here soon and I just-" She sobbed into her hands and leaned against the arm of the couch.

I slowly and carefully got out of the love seat and wobbled over to her. I placed my hand on her back and rubbed in circular motions.

"It's gonna be okay bestie," I hugged her, "you know I always got you, no matter what's goin' on with you and Korie. That's my nephew in there, and I got him just like I got you."

"He brought it up to me that Tasha told him I was working with Carmen. I was so upset at him for believing her, that I went to a hotel for a couple of days and completely ignored him. When I came back it was a note on the table saying he was leaving, and me reacting the way I did let him know that I was guilty. But I swear on my life I'd never do anything like that, and for him to even think that was the slightest bit of the truth, makes me wonder if it's even worth it."

"Calm down, it's okay. I know, and Korie knows as well. Just give it all some time." I reassured her.

She nodded her head as she wiped her face, calming down. I couldn't stand seeing her like this, and I especially didn't want her stressing out because it's unhealthy for the baby. When she leaves here I'm definitely calling Korie over because he hasn't came by in forever, but he calls every once in a while, never mentioning to me that he and Mo had been broken up.

"Sorry about that," she took in a deep breath, "so how excited are you? The boys are coming any minute now." She smiled and placed her hand on my giant belly.

"I'm so ready! This is only the eighth month though, but I definitely think they'll be coming earlier than expected. The doctor said they're really developed. They're gonna be tall for sure." I smiled just thinking about my babies.

"So amazing." She poked her bottom lip out and placed a hand over her heart. "I only have three months to gooo." She danced around in her seat.

"Damn, you are six months! I forgot you were so close behind me, that's so crazy, me and my bestie pregnant at the same time. I love you, bitch."

She started to fake cry, "I love you too, hoe."

——

Mo had left a little while ago, and I'm just waking up from my nap. I grabbed my phone off of the nightstand and checked the time.

"It's almost four o'clock in the afternoon?" I yawned and looked to the other side of the bed, seeing Trey sleeping with his arm over his eyes.

I must've been really tired because I didn't hear him coming in from the gym, and I definitely didn't feel him climbing into bed.

I swung my feet to the other side of the bed and stretched, while yawning again in the process.

"Ouch!" I whisper-yelled after stubbing my toe on my vanity chair.

After making my way to the bathroom, I brushed my teeth and washed my face. I also made a mental reminder to get my hair done as I looked at the messy bun on top of my head.

I walked back in the room and climbed back in the bed, straddling Trey as best I could.

He moved around a little and did this little cute wiggle with his nose making me smile at his beautiful face. I leaned down and gave his lips a few pecks, which turned into a full make-out.

I pulled away and laughed, "Baby, I thought you were sleep."

"I was, but them juicy lips of honey can revive me from the dead any day." He smacked my ass as he bit his bottom lip.

"Ow." I pouted and rubbed my hand over the sore spot.

"Give me another kiss." I bent down and kissed him as I felt his dick hardening under me.

"Babe, no sex." I said in between kisses.

"Just let me put the tip in," he groaned, "I'll be quick."

"Aht aht, no nookie for two and a half months, doctor's orders."

"Man fuck that doctor." He mumbled, smacking his lips.

"You better get real acquainted with that hand and some lotion." I laughed as I climbed off of him. "When did you get home?"

"About one-thirty, you was knocked out, so I just got in the bed with you."

"Yeah, Mo came over this morning." I paused and looked over at him on his phone. "Did you know Korie and Mo weren't together?"

"Nah." He got up and put on his slippers.

"Mhmm," I squinted while I watched him enter the bathroom.

I dialed Korie's number and waited as it rang.

"Wassup sis."

"Mm." I lifted an eyebrow because he thought shit was sweet.

"Hello?" He asked confused.

"I don't care what you're doing, if you're not here in an hour, I'll come kick your ass and I promise you that."

I hung up the phone and went downstairs to begin dinner. I guess we'll be eating a little early today.

——

I opened the door and immediately gave Korie the death glare.

"Sis, what's up with all the animosity?"

"Korie, come in the house just incase there are any witnesses." I dragged him by the hood of his jacket and closed the door. "So, you single, huh?!" I shoved my hands into his chest making him stumble back a little.

"Just listen up before you go all Mayweather on a nigga." He backed his way to the couch and sat down. "I have reasonings behind my decisions."

"Which are?" I motioned my hands for him to continue.

"When I came back from the hospital after being shot, I didn't want help from nobody, I didn't wanna be a burden, I tried to explain that to Mo on many occasions, until eventually she just started giving me the cold shoulder." He explained.

"So let me get this straight, you're mad because your girlfriend wanted to be there for you in your time of need?You sound almost as dumb as you look!" I snapped.

"Whatever," he mumbled, "but then something kept sitting on my mind. The last conversation I had with Tasha, she said Monique was working with Carmen. I asked her about it and she started acting all weird, she even left with no calls or nothing. That's a dead give away to me."

"Korie, that girl is pregnant with your child. She takes care of Lyric as if she was her very own, and let's not forget she's my best friend, do you honestly think she'd do something like that?" I leaned up and folded my hands under my chin, staring at him.

"D, it is what it is, ima be there for my son, and I ain't tryna take Lyric out of her life, I'm just distancing myself, at least for now."

"You talkin' bout, at least for now, Monique might not wait around forever." I sighed and got up to head towards the kitchen.

I decided to make chicken Alfredo for dinner, so I checked the sauce that was now boiling.

"I remember Mo telling me something about Tasha saying she was pregnant by you, was that true?" I looked over at him as I poured the sauce and chicken over the noodles.

"That was a lie, it was a fake document saying she was eight weeks pregnant. And I wouldn't have touched that girl if somebody paid me a mil." He shook his head in disgust.

I nodded my head and began to wash my hands, drying them after. There was an awkward silence in the room, so I decided to break it.

"So how do you go about telling a four year old that her mom is dead?"

There was a pause before he answered. "I haven't told her yet." He rubbed his hand over his waves. "And I don't know if I should, I mean Tasha was barely around anyway. If she don't ask, then why tell."

"But she will wonder, in the future. And you don't want her hating you, or Mo for the reasoning when she finds out." I finished making plates and began setting the table.

"When the time is right, I'll tell her."

March 13
Trin

I was sitting on my couch flipping through the channels on the t.v waiting for Reem to come. We were supposed to be going shopping for our upcoming vacation, and I was beyond ready, especially since he said it's on him.

I picked my phone up off of the couch, hearing a 'ding' indicating that I had a text message.

Big brother💩💓
I'm on my way, I have someone with me...
1:38 p.m.

Me
Umm? Shouldn't i know who's coming to my house! 😡
1:40 p.m.

I sat my phone down and began straightening up my living room, as quickly as possible. I didn't know who was coming, but I didn't want them walking into a mess.

Twenty minutes later, three knocks were heard on my front door, and for some reason I was hesitant to open it. I blew out the apple cinnamon candle that sat by my door, and fanned the smoke away before unlocking the top bolt.

"Hey br-" I was cut off by a sudden panic that took over my chest.

Did I just see a ghost?

I grabbed my chest and slid down the wall, as Antoine knocked. I was so caught off guard that I slammed the door as my initial reaction.

"T!" Twan rapidly knocked. "Open up."

I shook my head 'no' as if he could see me, and I wiped the tears that were coming from my eyes.

I heard some commotion outside, and heard Reem's voice. He and Korie were arguing, going back and forth on what was going on. I decided to gather myself, and pick myself up off of the ground. Whatever was on the other side of that door, I guess I'd just have to face it.

I slowly opened the door, but quickly turned away. I heard the door close, indicating that everyone was in. I felt arms wrap around my body as I shook, "It's okay, it's all good baby." Reem's voice soothed me as I steadied my breathing.

"Baby." She croaked out. "I just want you to know, that I had to leave. It wasn't safe for me or your father to stay in the states. I didn't wanna take you and Antoine because I didn't want you around us, people were looking for us, high prices on our heads. There were people who-" she paused, and I heard her sniff. "There were people who would do anything for that money, and that included killing you two, to get to us."

I shook my head and tried processing what she was saying, but no matter how much I tried to wrap my head around it, I couldn't.

"You left us. No calls, no sign of living. So you think," I turned around and faced her, "I should sit here feeling sorry and accepting you back with open arms?" I squinted my eyes and stepped closer to her.

"Trinity." She said sternly. "Watch your mouth, I am still your mother." Her eyes began to water.

"Are you scolding me right now?" I released a sarcastic laugh. "You will not scold me in my house, that I pay the bills in. You don't get to scold me, 'cause you missed that opportunity."

She nodded her head and looked back at Twan. "We can go now, I tried."

"Hold on, let me talk to her." He nodded towards the kitchen, telling me to go there.

I grabbed a water bottle out of the refrigerator and sat on the island, running my hands through my hair. This is too much, how am I supposed to feel? I'm so over this shit, I can never catch a break and it's getting tiring.

"Trin look, I know you upset but, just try with her, okay?" Twan walked in saying to me.

"How could I!" I started crying again. "I had to come to terms with both of my parents being dead! At a young age, and you of all people know exactly how I felt." I paused shaking my head, wiping tears. "Twan, why is she here? What's the real story?" There was a long pause, "Is daddy alive too?" I didn't even look at him, but the silence gave me the answer.

"You'll tell her!" I heard my mom yell from the living room.

Twan held up his finger and walked into the living room, I hopped down and followed, wondering what she was talking about.

When I walked in, Reem and my mother looked at me.

"Kareem here, has something he needs to tell you." She raised her eyebrows at him and folded her arms over her chest.

"Trin-"

"Cut the bullshit, what's goin' on?" I held my hand up, cutting Reem off.

"I should've told you this a long time ago," he shoved his hands in his front pockets.

I stood there waiting for the worst.

What's the worst thing that could come out of his mouth, in a moment like this? I thought to myself.

Excuse any mistakes..

So, did y'all catch it? Mo is pregnant with a boy. I purposely skipped Mo's gender reveal, and the ladies' baby showers because I thought it'd be too repetitive.

Korie and Mo's relationship?

Does Korie need to tell Lyric about Tasha?

Who is ready for the twins to drop!? I still need names for them guys! Leave them to the right>

I also need a MIDDLE name for Korie and Mo's son, 'cause I already picked out the first name.

Reem? Suspenseful, I know 😈😂
