《Played Out》24. Secrets & Plots
Advertisement
I looked at the instagram photo over and over again. I shook my head before locking my phone and sipping my non-alcoholic wine. My sister and our best friend Yoni came back in with the pizza and drinks. I shook my head trying to shake the anger for our movie night but I was pissed.
"Did you talk to him yet?"
"Nope" I rolled my eyes "He full of shit!"
"I can't believe he did that to you girl" Yoni shook her head "I mean Ess my girl because she my LS but that's fucked up regardless. And she shouldn't even be trying to be with him knowing yall got the baby coming"
"He not doing this to me" I shook my head "He just said we was gone be a family and everything"
"I told you to talk to him" Destiny shook her head "You blowing up when you don't know what's going on"
"They fucking together Destiny!"
"And if they are what you gone do about it? Because going off and pouting ain't doing shit for you! Get yo man back or shut up sis"
I rolled my eyes before sitting back and rubbing my belly. Unfortunately my sister was right and I need to do something.
"What am I supposed to do y'all?" I felt my tears rolling
"Don't cry pooh" Yoni hugged me "I know if it was me I'd break they ass up. He was yours before her then he'll be yours when they done"
"That's—"
"Perfect!" I cut off Destiny off as the idea hit me "All I have to do is play supportive friend. Pharaoh spend time with me and the baby anyway. All I got to do is make it seem like somethings going on behind her back"
"Harmony that's stupid"

"How?"
"She got a point Des" Yoni shrugged "If I don't know nothing I know Ess don't trust people like that so once you break her trust in him. She'll cut him off quick"
"And Pharaoh got mad as hell at her for talking crazy to me! It could work!"
"I'm not in it" Des shook her head "Just don't have me fighting a bitch because you can't let go"
"He wanted this baby! And I want my family so I'm making it happen! Fuck her!"
I knew my sister didn't agree but she always had my back. It was a twin thing. We left the conversation alone and watched the movie but the whole time I was sitting there plotting my plan.
I knew I had to do something so I decided to start now.
I locked my phone just waiting for his response.
Pharaoh is the most amazing human being I have met in a long time. Honestly, before him it was Kira with Gianni before her. Still, no one had made the effort he does to make me happy and cheer me up. My mom use to and I thought without her, I'd have to pull myself out of the depression which has never been something I'm good at. But with Pharaoh, I know on my weakest day he'll be there. After spending the day with him and Papi then waking up to Urban Air with my sisters and Mazi. I was more than happy. Pharaoh even spent the night at my place.
I woke up before him and just watched him sleep. I was consumed by the thoughts of everything he still didn't know about me. Things that I was hiding from so that I can stay sane. I knew eventually I would have to tell him but I wasn't prepared to do it now. I shook those thoughts and thought about the drive to the prison. I knew something was bothering Pharaoh. I wasn't gone push the issue because I knew he would talk to me when he was ready.

I got dress and headed to Pharaoh's house for our NPHC week planning meeting. We basically planned everything before the fall semester ended but we were review everything with the chapter leaders of the other chapter. Each org had two or three people to plan the week as a team. I got drafted because Gianni and Kira got voluntold to do it.
Pharaoh and Lucca (Alphas), Johnathan and his LB Devon (Nupes), and Divine, Carter, and Sebastian (Bruhz) were all apart of the crew. Plus there was Sidney and Laura who were Ks. All the other orgs weren't on the yards so it was just us.
When I got there, my girls were standing outside waiting on me. We headed inside and everyone else as in attendance kickin it. I was so antisocial before this no one even knew I was a Delta. I kicked it with my line sisters but that's about it. Devon and Sebastian were social work majors so we had classes together but other than that everyone was knew to me.
We got to planning and making sure everything was perfect. Laura and Devon had the flyer looking hot and everything was mapped perfectly. We were done pretty quickly so the guys suggested we turn the meeting into a kickback/game night.
"Come to my room for a minute" Pharaoh whispered in my ear
I nodded and followed him to the back. As soon as we were in his room he pulled me into a hug and kissed me.
"What was that for?" I laughed
"I just wanted to love on you and make sure you were good"
"I'm fine baecon. Gianni and Kira been with me all day. My auntie got here last night after we got home. I'm good I promise"
"I just wanted to make sure"
"What about you?" I moved to sit on the bed "Yesterday something irritated you"
"It was just Harmony"
"Oooh"
"She started tripping and I just..." he rolled his eyes "I don't even know what I'm supposed to do with her ass"
"She is pregnant and hormonal. Just talk to her and just to sympathize with her feeling" I shrugged "Set the standard for y'all coparenting situation then leave it at that"
"She text me wanting to talk now so I guess I should"
"Rao Rao you have to. She's baby boy's mother and you need to have a cordial possibly even friendly relationship with her. My dad spoke of all the memories but I remember them breaking up when I was five. The first couple times they were together was ugly... then they were like best friends. My mom always said it was because Papi sat her down to talk and they realize I was watching. Don't have tension for him to see"
"Thanks Squish" he hugged me "Now come on before they think we fucking"
I laughed following him out. We walk in to a bunch of jabs and jokes about us fucking but it was all fun and games. After a few hours we all headed home. Pharaoh decided to come with me and spend the night. My aunt was at the house and he wanted to see her so I agreed knowing she would love to see him. Plus she could give advice on coparenting better than anyone. She tried plenty of times with Mazi dad so she was a pro at what not to do.

8 185Dragons of Dark Rebellion in A World of Essence
In a world where cultivation is the highest form of virtue, the purity of one’s blood is of absolute value. Saul is neither Arloni, nor Delcairan. He’s both. But when a strange ring suddenly falls into his hands, nineteen year old Saul is more than willing to push the boundary between fantasy and reality. However, things are not as they once were in Falden. At a time where Saul finally confronts lord Albryte’s sons after years of torment and abuse, his father’s health is fading fast. Suddenly faced with the consequences of his actions, Saul is forced to make a difficult decision. And as he fights his own battle, dark forces descend upon Lucidia. Followed by a pair of glowing red eyes, a stranger appears in the night, visiting Falden with unfavorable intentions. Even worse, nameless assassins strike at the heart of the capital, leaving Eliza Zaryph, the black sheep of the ruling house of Lucidia, shouldering the burden of governing a kingdom that once turned its back on her. As the world marches toward chaos, their lives take a drastic turn. Will Saul abandon those he holds most dear? Will Eliza drown herself in the past? Or will they struggle against fate and seize the future with their own hands? Tomorrow remains uncertain. But the Sun will show them the way. Author's Note: Inspired by the Wuxia/Xianxia genre the magic system is comprised of cultivating through different Worlds of power, where each World offers more strength and abilities. Currently there are five Worlds known: Essence Practitioner, Essence Channeler, Essence Warrior, Essence Conquerer, and finally Essence Ruler. (And for the best reading experience I recomend altering your width setting to about 70 or 80 percent on desktop.) Table of Contents: Prologue Part 1: Homecoming (chapters 1-12) Part 2: Journey (chapters 13-25) About 70 percent complete. I'll update this figure over time and begin posting again after I finish it and go through several rounds of editing.
