CHAPTER TWO
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

    Amoura stared intently in the mirror as she attempted to cover the hickeys on her neck up with makeup. She felt stupid doing this but she didn't want her grandma or papa questioning her about it. They obviously were going to conclude that she was out doing more than just hanging with her friend.

She was already dressed and her hair was out curly. Tomorrow she had an appointment to get it done. She was tired of doing her real hair everyday so some weave would have to do for a few weeks. Plus she wanted a new look sometimes.

Ace was still knocked out on her bed. He always wanted to sleep with Amoura despite having his own room with a boy theme. She was kinda bummed he was still sleep because he was also sleep when she got back last night. She would just have to wait till she got home from school.

Looking at her phone, she noticed the time was already seven. She didn't want to miss the bus so she hurriedly grabbed her things before leaving out. She usually went with Naylee but Nay got in trouble for coming home late on a school night so couldn't take the car anymore.

Of course, Amoura was mad she had to take the bus but she really didn't have a choice. By morning her papa would be at work and her grandma would be getting ready to take Ace to daycare, before she also headed off to work. She made her way across the street and to the bus stop where few students stood around.

"Why won't you tell me?" Naylee whined

Amoura rolled her eyes, continuing to eat food

"Amoura don't be like that..."

"Like what?"

"Like did y'all fuck or?"

"Bitch what do you think?"

"Well bitch why you ain't just say that?"

"Bitch because it's pretty obvious. I don't wanna talk about it anyway that's just weird."

"No it's not. I tell you when I get some dick and how it was."

"Okay that's you. I don't wanna go into detail. Can you not see I'm trying to forget about it? I don't know him nor will I ever have to see him again."

"Mhm whatever." She mumbled

Amoura drank some of her juice and went on her phone. She was waiting patiently for school to be over with. She was missing Ace right now.

"Oh yeah, you left your sweater in the car. I'll give it to you tomorrow."

"Seriously? I really was looking for it this morning too but okay."

Lunch was over and Amoura had one more period to go.

The last bell rung and students were leaving out quickly. She put her things in her book bag and made her way out the class. Before leaving out she had to stop by her locker and get some other things. Once she was done she closed it and continued her way out. The hall was crowded with kids playing around.

She got out the entrance door and then felt a pair of arms wrap around her shoulders and somebody hugging her from the back. She turned her head slightly up to see it was Miles, her ex. She rolled her eyes and tried removing his arms.

"Miles get your dirty ass off me."

"Stop being like that." He said

"You stop being annoying. Why you still on me?"

"Cause I miss you and my son."

"And your son? Nigga bye."

"You know Ace my seed."

Amoura shook her head laughing "And if you missed me you wouldn't have fucked with bitches I didn't like while we were together. Go back to them."

"Ion know why you act like they had shit on you."

"Well I wouldn't have to think that if you didn't treat me like they did. You a sorry ass nigga and got what you asked for. I don't care about your feelings anymore."

"I feel you but I still miss you."

"Okay that's cool. I would miss me too."

He gripped her butt in the yellow sundress she was wearing.

"Get off me Miles. I'm not yours anymore nigga." She tried pulling his arms from around her but he was stronger than her

"You gone always still be mine." He said in her ear "Who you know gonna give better head than me?"

"I'll find somebod—" Amoura was cut off when she heard some female yell miles name

He let go of Amoura and she looked to the right seeing some Spanish girl walking up. Amoura seen her around the school before but didn't know her personally.

"Sandria it's not even what it look like baby."

"So I didn't just see you hugged up on her from behind and touching her ass? Huh? You gonna sit here and lie in my face like I'm stupid."

He couldn't even say anything because he didn't know what to say.

"This the girl you hugged up on? And this bitch let you" She pointed to Amoura with a frown

"Hold on... I'm not no bitch." Amoura said "Don't get mad at me because of some shit he did. I clearly was annoyed and kept telling him to get off me and he didn't. Watch what the fuck you say to me cause I'm not these other bitches you can play with."

"Bitch why are you lying? I watched you laugh at something he said. You clearly trying to ruin our relationship."

"Yo, chill, she didn't do shit." He said "That was all me."

"Nah that bitch really trying to get back with you."

"I don't want his ass back." Amoura laughed "Clearly you not doing something right if he telling me he miss me. I didn't even know he was with you nor would it have mattered because he still wouldn't have let go of me and I couldn't pull him off me like I'm the hulk or some shit. Point I'm making is, check him. Not me."

"Don't get smacked." Sandria said laughing a little

Amoura raised her eyebrow "By who? Cause it damn sure won't be you."

"It damn sure will."

"Ard y'all stop this shit cause it's getting nowhere." He said holding onto Amoura

"Don't hold onto me, hold onto your girl. I'm going home cause this isn't my problem to begin with. Say something to him cause I wasn't hugged up on him was I? Dumb ass bitches like you annoy the fuck outta me."

Amoura walked away and Sandria was about to go after her but Miles held her back. He made sure to get a look at Amoura's ass in her dress as she walked away. He wanted that old thing back.

Amoura was on her way to pick Ace up. The daycare he was at wasn't too far of a walk and even if it was Amoura wouldn't mind. As she was walking there she got a message. She checked seeing it was from Dre. Her heart immediately sunk.

Dre
Wya?
2:32 PM

She didn't know what to say. Thinking about what they did still had her in a daze.

I'm just now getting out of school
2:33 PM

I forgot you a child get that education youngin
2:36 PM

Whatever lmao
2:36 PM

Amoura came up to his daycare a couple minutes later. She went inside and signed him out before they brought Ace out. The smile of his face made Amoura smile.

"Did you have fun baby?"

"Yes, we got to paint" he said happily

"What did you make?"

"You but we have to let them dry"

"You made me?" Amoura pointed to herself surprised

"Yeah" He nodded smiling

"I can't wait to see it baby."

"Yeah and I even make your eyes lashes long how you like them mommy"

"Aww you're so sweet Ace."

The whole walk home Amoura listened to Ace tell about his day. They got in the house and Amoura checked her phone.

Dre
Come past my crib.
2:39 PM

I can't. I'm with my son right now.
2:50 PM

Dre
Damn. When you gone be free then?
2:52 PM

I'm not sure. But I'll definitely let you know when I am.
2:52 PM

Dre
Ard bet.
2:58 PM

"Ace please don't make this plate fall." She said as she gave him a plate of food

"I'm not." He whined

"Cause I am going to be so mad if you do."

Ace slowly walked over to the table and placed it on there. Amoura watched as he climbed onto the chair to sit down.

She was fixing herself a plate when she heard Ace scream.

"What's wrong?" She asked worriedly as she hurried over to the table. She saw the half bitten chicken nugget on the plate.

"It's hot." He looked up at her sadly

"You didn't know that? You gotta blow before you eat baby."

"I didn't know it was super hot like that." He said low

"Yes they are. Blow it Ace."

"Okay." He mumbled

  All it took was a meal and a show on for Ace to be knocked out in just a couple minutes. While he slept Amoura got her homework done and tried to finish up a project she had due in a week. She wanted to graduate and eventually go to college. Even though she got pregnant young she still wanted to accomplish her dreams and become a psychologist.

  A lot of times she hated thinking about her mom but she always thought about what would've happened if she stayed. Would Ace even be here if she stayed in that toxic environment. It hurt thinking about the past but she did it frequently. Mostly when Ace wasn't around because her mind seemed to go in a deep hole when he wasn't up to make her happy and forget about those things.

She found it becoming difficult to focus so she grabbed her earphones and decided to listen to some music. She wanted to get her work done and dwelling on the past always threw her off that's why she hated to do it.
