Jaelynn POV

Elijah has some damn nerve. His mama don't know about me. I️ get that they don't talk like how a normal son would talk to his mom. But still... she still called you for your birthday so she cares at some extent. Unlike his father who hasn't spoken to Elijah in years.

Elijah came strolling into the room rubbing the back of his neck. I️ just side eyed him but went back to looking at the television.

"Baby?. Listen let me explain" not looking at him I'll let him talk. "As you know my mum and I️ don't have the best communication. So when I️ do talk to her the conversation isn't long. I️ do forget to even mention you or our baby. It's not intentional".

"My ass... Elijah. Not intentional. It may be not be but it is. Did she know about Alexis?" I️ asked.

"Why can't we enjoy today?" He asked.

"You know you're right. It's your birthday go enjoy the day. I'll be here just watching tv and trying to figure out why my boyfriend is trying to keep me a secret".

Elijah just stood there as if he was trying to think of the right thing to say. He came over and sat on the bed. "Yes, she knew about Alexis".

"That's great. Are you ashamed of me or something?. I️ know your mama isn't racist cause Alexis is darker than me".

"No baby, I️ would never be ashamed of you. You forgot you the one who changed me for the better". He tried touching my hand but I️ pulled away.

"Doesn't excuse the fact you didn't update your mom on your dating life".

He rubbed his chin and said "she had a love/hate feelings toward Alexis but she favored her too. Alexis had this charm that she can turn on for someone to like her. She won my mom over when we went to go visit her".

"Hold the fuck up!!" I️ got up off the bed and paced the room. "Let me get this straight. You had the audacity to let that bitch meet your Mom?. But I'm here pregnant about to pop and I️ haven't met anyone from your family". He got me fucked up.

"It was different then, Jaelynn. Why is this such a big deal?" He asked.

"Because if you were serious about us you would've made the attempt to let me meet your mom. Your daughter's grandmother".

He didn't say anything he just sat there and stared at me. I️ can tell he still doesn't get it.

"Listen when Alexis met my mom we were together for a while. Longer than we've been together. I️ thought it was right for her to meet my mom thinking it was going to last longer than it did".

"Was she pregnant at the time?" I️ asked. Lord help me not beat up this man.

He nodded.

"You know what... it's obvious you think Alexis has better qualities it takes to meet your family. I️ get it I️ do. Nice to know I️ can never amount to what Alexis is to you" storming out of the room leaving him there .

Going to my other closet down stairs I️ grabbed my clothes and got dressed. Walking out the bathroom I️ see Elijah walking from upstairs.

"Where are you going?" He asked.

"Out. I️ rather be with someone who actually doesn't compare me to someone else" grabbing my bag I️ took my car key out.

"Can I finish explaining this?" He was starting to get frustrated.

"No you said a lot and enough. Like you said it's your birthday go enjoy it. Shit, call Alexis and have her come see you since she's the best thing you've ever had" opening the door and waddling to my car. Usually he lets me walk out with nothing else said or done. But today was going to be different.

He ran up behind me and got to my car door before me. Blocking my way of getting inside. "I'm not letting you walk out of this discussion. We are going to talk about it and move on from it".

"Can you move?" I️ asked.

"No, you do this all the time. Anytime we have an argument you want to up and leave. Not this time. We are going to finish this conversation, make up and then if you still want to leave you can".

"What else do you want to say Dr. Phil?". He held onto my wrist to make sure I️ don't try and make a run for it.

"I️ wasn't comparing you to Alexis. She can never compare to the woman you are. Maybe I️ was wrong for not introducing you to my mum. But it wasn't intentional. I️ guess I️ was so wrapped up in You it didn't occur to me to let you meet her. I️ wanted you to myself for a while before letting you shine your light on someone else".

These hormones have me acting crazy. I️ need to give birth soon. "Elijah..."

"Let me finish... in due time I️ will eventually let you meet her. As of right now obviously you can't because your soon to give birth. I️ don't want you thinking in that crazy head of yours that I️ don't value you cause I️ do. And at the end of the day if my mum doesn't like you who cares. As long as I️ love you that's all that matters".

"Are you done?" I️ asked trying not to cry.

He nodded "I'm sorry I️ overreacted. But it did hurt me that Alexis got to meet your mom and I️ haven't. I felt like you were hiding me away from your side of the family. Like I'm a monster or something. Then again these hormones got me thinking irrationally".

"And I'm sorry you took my words in that way that made you feel not good enough. Never think that again. You're more than enough for me. And always will be. I️ love you".

He leaned down and gave me a kiss. "Don't ever let anyone tell you different. Or I'm kicking someone's ass".

I️ laughed "you stupid. But I️ love you too".

"Good now I'm going to go inside and figure what's going down tonight and now you can go out feeling better and actually enjoying the day" he moved from infront of me and slapped my butt. Making me jump.

"Hey!" He winked at me and smiled "that ass got fat from you being pregnant. Actually I'll wait for you to get back".

"You know what I️ don't have to go out" I️ smirked wrapping my arm around his. "Good I️ think I️ deserve some birthday sex". Oh boy here we go.
