11:02 a.m.

"Come on sis, let's get out the house" Tae said. "He's right Lyric, you been in this house for at least a month now" Alani said, as I laid on her shoulder.

"Noelle, your getting out this house today and that's final" Grace, my mother said walking out the kitchen with cup of tea for everyone.

"I've booked a massage for you guy's at this massage parlor I absolutely love, and then maybe you guys could go grab a bite to eat" she said setting the tray of tea down on the table.

"That's sounds good auntie" Lani said letting out a small smile, in hopes her best friend would agree.

"And i'll finish the things here" Grace said motioning to the moving boxes, as the doorbell went off.

"It's probably Indy" Tae said, getting up from the couch to go open the door.

"Come on let's go get you dressed" Alani said, as I leaned up from off her shoulder. "No, I got it" I softly spoke, pushing up off the chair to head up the stairs.

Alani, let a deep sigh as she watched her best friend walk off, as Tae and India walked in. "How is she" India asked sitting down next to Alani.

"Same" Alani said, shaking her head as Grace passed her a cup of tea. "She's going to be okay, it's just going to take time" Grace said, sipping from her tea.

"They haven't talked it out at all, or even tried too. And he leaves tomorrow for tour." Alani said with disappointment laced in her voice.

She knew how in love Markeyvious was in with Lyric. She just didn't understand why he wouldn't try to make things right before he went off for, months.

She started to believe that he was being selfish, knowing how bad this is weighing on Lyric, and considering the fact that she was pregnant was even worse.

"I'm just worried about all this unnecessary stress, can harm the baby" Alani said. "Understandable, but let's not only put the blame on him, he's went through some traumatic events. Not only that we don't know what went on in his childhood. He probably don't know how to accept someone being there for him, through hard times. And knowing my daughter she's going to keep pushing on him to open up, until he explodes." Grace said.

"I just want you guy's to surround her with positive vibes today, s-she needs that" she continued to say tearing up.

2:34 p.m.

"This shit gone have me shitting" Tae said as we all sat down with our food from the taco truck. "Now Tae" I said, smacking my lips.

"What it's the truth" he said shrugging his shoulders. "You agreed on tacos" India said as she squeezed the lime on her street tacos.

"Right" Alani co-signed. "Cause I just know these bitches gone be good, but imma pay for it later" he said taking a boomerang of his food.

"Ouuuu" I excitedly danced in my seat as I, unwrapped the foil from around the street corn I had got. "That's who going to be shitting" Alani said frowning her face up at the corn, as I took a picture of it.

"Here taste some" I said moving the corn to her mouth. "Now, Lyric you going to be mad ass hell if I was to smack that shit out yo hand" she said trying not to gag.

Alani hated anything that had corn in it, it was so weird.

"We do for a girls night" India said as I bite into the corn. I nodded my head as I chewed. "Drunk uno is calling my name" Lani said.

"I hate y'all bitches" I said, rolling my eyes. "Nobody told you too be busting yo legs open" Tae said. "You just mad you don't got nobody to bust yours open too" I shrugged my shoulders.

"Pregnancy done turned my friend into a mean bitch" he said as I laughed. "Have you started planning for tootie's birthday" Lani asked.

"Yes and no" I sighed. "Y'all already know she dramatic" I playfully rolled my eyes. "Just like you" India said. "Right but continue" Lani said.

"Whatever, but for her photoshoot she wants to do a butterfly theme but for the actual party she don't know if she wants to do unicorn or butterflies" I said taking a sip from my drink.

"Lets hangout at my place tonight" Alani said as I picked up my buzzing phone.

when & where ?

👍🏽

fine, anything else

-lol, ttyl

"You down for it boo" India asked me as I put my phone in my purse. "Umm, actually tonight I have plans" I said. "Key wants too talk" I continued.

"Okayy, that's fine we can just reschedule" Lani said. "Ohh, before I forget I have the keys to the house" India said wiping her hands off before reaching into her purse to pull out an envelope.

"Thank, you so much Indy for your help" I said taking the envelope from her. "It's fine" she said waving me off. "No, seriously especially with short notice" I said.

India had just got her real estate license, about three months ago. She had helped me find a four bedroom, and three bath house that was placed in a nice neighborhood.

Markeyvious was yet to know, he would just have to find out on his own time. Just like I had too.

"We need to go to the mall after so I can get my stinky man something" Lani said rubbing my belly. "You need to tell him to stop sitting on top of my bladder" I said, rolling my eyes.

7:24 p.m.

"Okayy, let me know when you make it home. I love you." I said hugging my mom before she walked outside. "I love you too" she said walking out. I made sure she drove off safely before locking the door.

I sighed as I look at all the packed boxes in the middle of the floor. I went into the living room, sitting down in the couch, pulling out my phone getting on Instagram, instantly seeing Key's page pop up.

I exited Instagram, going to the security camera app to pull up the cameras as I heard a car pulling up outside.

Nervousness instantly rushed through my body, after seeing it was Markeyvious car. I locked my phone, tossing it beside me as he started unlocking the door.

I nervously fidgeted with my fingers. "Noelle" he announced, locking the door. I pushed myself up off the chair.

"What's all these boxes" he asked as I turnt the corner. "I-im moving out" I softly spoke up as I studied his face. You could tell he hasn't been eating, he looked drained, I couldn't recognize the person that I fell in love with.

He chuckled as he nodded his head. "Key you already knew my intentions were too never be here long" I said. "Lyric you could've let me know, so I could know where my kids laying they head" he slightly yelled.

"I'm not some spiteful bitch that would keep the address from you Markeyvious and you know that" I said, shaking my head in disbelief.

"I didn't tell you about the house, just like you didn't tell me you took on more tour dates" I said as guilt plastered on his face.

"Damn, Lyric can a nigga breathe, you always complaining about something dawg" he yelled.

"Complaining" I questioned. "It's a fucking difference in between in complaining and expressing your thoughts on things. That's the shit you do when you are in a relationship." I said as he looked off, not looking me in the eye.

"You already knew how hard it was for me now, with the dates you already had but you added more knowing you don't even know if you'll be able to make it too OUR SON'S BIRTH" I yelled.

"Don't try to play me like i'm a bad father Lyric" he sternly said pointing his finger at me. "You are surely starting to turn into one. Over the past month you have made empty promises to Merie and every fucking time I have to pick her up. You promised too, always show up to my appointments" I said as tears started to stream down my face.

"Why won't you just let me be there for you" I said caressing his face. "Markeyvious" I cried as the tears started to fall harder, as he snatched his face away.

"I'm d-done Lyric" he said wiping the stray tear away that felled, as he stared at the wall.

"Me too" I softly spoke up, causing him to look my way, not expecting that response, staring me into my eyes for the first time tonight.

"I sh-im going to ll-eave" he said clearing his throat. "Wait" I called out, stopping him in his tracks. "Was i-i never e-nough" I asked.

"You was always enough Noelle. More than enough. But I realized I can't love you properly, if I don't love me first." he spoke, with his back facing me.
