《Down The Line》~DTL.9~
Advertisement
Since Kamryn was going to hang with Darius today I decided to go over to my parents house. I like to visit them at least once a week. Me and parents had a good relationship. I can't say they were that pleased when they found out there 16 year old daughter was pregnant.
"Mom I'm sorry. I didn't know I was going to get pregnant" I told my mom after showing her the test.
"If your going to have sex Aaliyah, you should be doing it responsible." She lectured me.
"So where's this boy Darius. He's gonna leave you high and dry" My dad said. My dad never liked Darius for whatever reason.
"No dad don't even start. I haven't even told him yet"
"Aaliyah I'm very disappointed in you." My mom told me before walking out my room.
My dad shook his head "Come on Aaliyah you gotta do better" then he left.
"Hey Mom" I said as I kissed the side of her cheek.
I pooped some grapes in my mouth "Hey babygirl" my dad said.
"Hey dad" I smiled.
"Where's Kami" My mom asked while cutting some fruit.
"With Darius" I said while continuing to eat some fruit.
My dad slightly shook his head "Now he wants to be in her life"
I rolled my eyes "Dad Stop, you know I was the one who didn't tell him about Kamryn. It's not his fault"
"Yea" my dad snarked.
"So you and Darius are getting back together" My mom asked.
I laughed "Oh no. We're just co-parenting Kamryn. Nothing more nothing less"
My mom gave me a side eye "Sure." She smirked "You and Darius were attached by the hip. Y'all are gonna get back together I already see it"
I shook my head "Highly unlikely mom. First he has a girlfriend and he made it clear that he didn't wanna be with me." I paused "I can't be mad at him though, I'm the one who broke up with him"
My mom groaned "Only time will tell Aaliyah"
I just playfully laughed. Me and Darius probably would never get back together. Like he told me a couple weeks ago "The Aaliyah and Darius story is over, I moved on and I'm only focused on my daughter" I said in my head remembering what he said.
"Anyways. Darius family is having a family reunion this weekend. Me and Kam are going"

"That's good. Darius family should know Kam" My mom said.
"Well Kamryn's happy She has a family now" I smiled.
"Well babygirl I'm proud of you" my dad kissed my cheek.
I smiled "Thanks Dad, So where's Ariana" I asked my parents referring to my younger sister.
"She's around here somewhere." My mom said. Ariana was my moms baby, she was the youngest. Ariana was 18 years old. She was going to college in the fall, but still living with my parents.
"Ariana, your sisters here" My mom screamed. After a couple minutes she came running down the stairs.
"Hey sis" she smiled. "Hey Ari" I smiled and hugged her.
"Staying out of trouble" I asked with a smirk. Ariana was a good kid, she just hung out with the wrong people. She had been arrested a few times.
She rolled her eyes "You always gotta start Aaliyah huh" she asked with a attitude.
I laughed "I asked a simple question. No need to get so hostile"
"It's not even funny punk. I'm done with my old lifestyle. Plus I was only arrested twice for petty theft"
"If it was so petty why you steal it." I asked in laugh.
She through a grape at me "Fuck you Aaliyah"
My mom shook her head "Love you too Ari" I laughed as she walked back upstairs.
"You always better from a far" she yelled as she walked up the stairs.
"Leave your sister alone" My mom said as she threw some vegetables in a pan.
I laughed "She makes it so easy for me"
Me and Kamryn got to Jalen house, she got out the car. She put her hands up, wanting me to carry her.
"Kamryn why can't you walk, it's only like 10 steps to the house" I asked.
She just whined still wanting to get picked up. I groaned and scooped her up off the ground. She laid her head on my chest. "You lucky you my baby" I said shaking my head.
"I wanna ring the doorbell" Kamryn said lifting her head.
"Ring it" I nodded my head.
She rang the doorbell, after a couple minutes Jalen came and open the door. "Wassup Bro" He dapped me.
"Hi Princess" he said to Kamryn. She buried her head in my neck not responding.
"She shy" Jalen asked.
"No." I shook my head. "Kamryn say hi" I tapped her. She said hi in a low voice. I could tell she was cranky and a little tired.

"Hi" Jalen responded and let us inside.
"So you liking the daddy life"Jalen asked in a joking tone.
I laughed while trying to set Kamryn down but she ain't budge. I just sat on the couch next to Jalen "Yea boy she's the one and only female I can spoil in my life"
Jalen shook his head "So wassup with you and Jamera?"
I rolled my eyes "Man she was tripping, she came to Aaliyah house just acting a fool. I broke up with her. Aaliyah gonna have a permanent residence in my life now and I'm not trying to deal with her acting out every time she around"
"Damn man that's rough. You and her was dating for a quick minute. Who gonna be the next girl"
I smirked "I think imma just stay single for awhile. Just focus on Kamryn and work." I said truthfully.
I honestly wasn't looking to be in a relationship. Especially considering my last two relationships were fails. I just wanted to focus on my relationship with my daughter.
"Damn. Well good for you" Jalen smiled. I shook my head and smiled. "I'm content right now"
My phone rang and it was a business call. "Mooch get up I gotta take this" I told Kamryn.
She whined "Come here Kam I'll hold you till he get back" Jalen held at his arms. She looked at him for awhile before going to him.
I got up and answered the call "Darius Boweman" I said into the phone.
"Hello Mr.Boweman I was calling from New York about your new styles for your line. We need you to come to New York asap to finalize everything" The lady said.
"Alright. I'll make the arrangements thank you" I hung up the phone, I went to the bathroom. After I got out I heard Kamryn crying.
I rushed to the living room "Nigga what you do to her" I asked him.
"Man nothing. She just tired" He said while standing up.
"Come on Mooch. I gotta get you home you tired" I said while putting my arms out for her.
She sniffled and came. "Kamryn baby I know you tired but stop all that crying" I told her as she buried her head in my neck.
I shook my head. "Aight man imma holla at you later" I told him and dapped him up.
"Okay bro. Bye Kamryn" he said while tickling her sides and kissing her cheek. She didn't even respond.
I drove back to Aaliyah house and when I got there I took Kamryn straight to her room. She had fell asleep on our way here. I skipped back down the stairs.
"I gotta go to New York in a couple weekends." I told Aaliyah.
"Okay?" She made a face.
"You ain't gotta make that face, I'm just telling you"
"Okay thanks for sharing" she said sarcastically.
"Your welcome asshole" I said while walking to the door. She followed me to the door.
She opened the door for me "Why you opening the door. Imma go"
"Well you need to go a little faster" she said while tapping her fork and waving me out.
I stared at her "Watch me just stand here" I said while crossing my arms.
"Watch me call the police" She smiled sarcastically.
"I'm still in shock" I said changing the subject.
"In shock about what?"She asked confusedly.
I looked at her "About Kamryn." She flashed a half smile "You never expect to have a child with your highschool sweetheart" I said smiling.
"I know it's crazy" She crossed her arms. The room fell quiet. "Look Darius"
"Don't say it"
She rolled her eyes "Darius please shut up for once"
I had a shocked looked but stayed quiet "I know I've said it before but I'm sorry."
"I know you are Aaliyah. Not saying it was okay what you did but I forgive you" she smiled "For everything"
"Hug it out" she said while putting out her arms. I shook my head and laughed and walked up to her. She wrapped her arms around my neck and I wrapped mine around her waist.
It felt so natural and comfortable, it was like when we were together. This was the first time I just hugged Aaliyah in four years.
Aaliyah finally broke the hug "Okay goodnight" she said nervously.
I smirked "Goodnight Aaliyah. I'll be by tmrw to see Kamryn. I'll make sure her room is done in the next week" I walked out the door.
She nodded her head "Yup great. Have a great night" she closed the door quickly.
I laughed and walked to my car "This girl" I shook my head.
