Page 35 of We Could Be Better

“Girl calm your ass down everyone in here already under enough pressure we don’t need you coming in here starting shit. Keem and Nik are now together, so you either get over it or keep pushing.”

For the first time in a long time I eyes glistening up, but I held back all of my tears. I couldn’t believe Cash of all people just wanted me to except the fact that his brother left his family for one of my friends. What part of that is alright? But I was about to respect his wishes and keep pushing; he was right I couldn’t handle it so there was no need for me to be around it.

“Tell my sister I love her. Go give you dad a hug Ryder.”

Man I took care of everyone like I was the mama I looked out for them; I held everything around us down. I risked my fucking life just get them their money back and this is how theyrepay me. Boy its crazy how God work, but he always separates the real from the fake.

Once Ryder hugged his dad we left; I knew they would come home thinking they would see us. But me and my baby were about to go and say fuck everyone. I would be sure to call and check on Kyra, but for now I wanted to only focus on myself. I walked out that hospital and out they life.

Chapter Thirty-Five

“Thank you Cash.”

“Bitch don’t ever fucking speak to me again.”

I never wanted to speak to Dreka the way I did, but everybody around me was getting on my fucking nerve. My girl was in the back getting ready to bring my son in the world and she walked in the hospital with a fucking attitude. I couldn’t take this fucking shit anymore nothing was the fucking same; I was beyond pissed off at my brother for dissing Dreka and that bitch Nik had to die pregnant or not she was a fucking snake.

“Keem come back when you drop ya girl off somewhere.”

“Really Cash you know Kyra is my friend too.”

I walked off and got ready to head to the back when Kyra, but not before saying one more thing.

“Nik you burned all your bridges with everyone. The only person you have to depend on now is Keem and until he leaves you alone then I won’t have anything to do with him.”

Brother or not I meant every fucking word I had said to the both of them. I’m sure they knew them fucking around would cause an ass load of drama but yet they still decided to fuck. And then he had the nerve to pop a baby in the bitch.

Soon as I walked to the back Mina was holding Kyra’s hand as she was getting ready to push. Fucking around withthem almost caused me to miss the birth of my son, and if that would have happened I would’ve had to kill them.

“PUSH!”

I couldn’t believe what I was witnessing right before my eyes. It was a wonderful moment and a moment I wish I would’ve gotten when Paisley was born. But I won’t dwell on that; I will just enjoy this moment. Watching my baby boy come out was the most breathtaking moment ever. He had a head full of jet black hair that laid flat to his head. When they took him to the weighting table for a moment I forgot about Kyra because I ran over to check on my boy.

At that moment I knew I was going to name his Cash; I mean one day in the future he would carry on my legacy and run the street of Atlanta so why not give him my name.

“Cash, where’s Dreka?”

I was so caught up in the moment of having a son that I forgot Dreka stormed out of the hospital. I should’ve known that Kyra would soon ask questions about Dreka.

“She came and left.”

“Where is she now?”

“Look Kyra we just had a healthy baby boy let’s focus on enjoying him for the moment.”

“Cash don’t play with me where is my sister?”

“She left I don’t know where she’s at. Keem and Nik were here so she left.”

That alone made her cry so I knew then I wasn’t about to tell her everything that was said in that waiting room. I wasabout to enjoy this moment with my lil’ nigga, but I couldn’t take hearing my girl sniffing and crying on Mina shoulders.

“Whatever you do please don’t like Keem and Nik back here.”

“I already sent them home bae now just calm down.”

The bond Dreka and Kyra have is like no other so I knew she wouldn’t get over, so I knew she was hurting with her sister not being here. But she would see Dreka soon as we leave; she knew for herself Dreka never stay away for long. She was just in her feelings and needed some time to herself.
