"Damn slow down" scooter chuckled while I ate. We met up for lunch together like usual on our lunch breaks "I told you to eat breakfast this morning before you left the house"
"I wasn't hungry then" I explained with a mouth full of food, chewing and swallowing before I finished talking "besides, Kay's daddy got me stressin like hell in that damn office"
"How?"
"Cause! Baby he gets the stupidest cases just for the money and gets mad when somebody points it out. It's like he don't want nobody to hurt his little ego and he never wanna be wrong but unlike everybody else ima say what the fuck I gotta say" I ranted while stabbing my fork into the steak "and the lady that hired me.. she'll do whatever the hell helps his big ass ego just cause she fuckin him"
"What?" Scooter laughed
"Even the fuckin blind can see that they fuckin around. And she no more than thirty something so she still can get pregnant. What if she do end up pregnant by him? That'll be sick as hell"
"Why?"
"That old ass man with kids just as old as his lil girlfriend and GRANDKIDS... having a brand new baby"
"To him he ain got kids or grandkids cause ain you said he don't talk to either of his daughters"
"Not nomore. But still. That's nasty"
"We'll just be lucky that ain yo daddy"
"Trust me I'm glad. But shit, I really don't even know mine so it's no telling what he got going on"
"You'on need his ass. You doing good without him"
"You right" I nodded "I gotta great job, I'm happy, married..."
"Yeah. And now since you all of that. When we gone talk about having a baby?" He asked while I picked up my cup and started drinking from it
"Huh?"
"Don't act like that. We talked about this before and you said you wanted to finish school, get yo job and get married before you thought about a baby"
"Yeah. But I just started working scooter. Not even for 3 months yet. Let me get IN first"
"I'm just sayin cause I do want a baby lani"
"I do too. But ion wanna stop when I'm doing good right now. Cause helping Kay helped me realize it's a lot to be a parent. Besides, you'll still be able to work and do whatever if we have one and ima be the one down"
"You act like I ain gone be there for you"
"I didn't say that. I'm just- nevermind.. can we just change the subject right now"
"No we can't"
I rose my eyebrow "what?"
"We not cause we don't ever talk about shit if you'on want to and that ain healthy"
"I just don't wanna discuss is having a baby in the middle of eating lunch. This is the only peaceful time I have until I go home and ion wanna spend it arguing about us having a baby. We can talk about it all you want when we get home but right now.. I just don't want to.. please" I asked and scooter just nodded
"Ight" he simply said as my phone vibrated on the table but I ignored it
"You ain gone get that?"
"No. I'm on break and I'm with you. If anybody need me they can wait" I shrugged and he smiled before we went back to eating
Angel
1:15 pm
"Angel" destiny called my name while I sat in the break room watching Netflix on my phone. I looked up and over at her "somebody out here lookin for you girl"
"Who?"
"Ion know. One boy"
I sighed and stood up, leaving the break room, shoving my phone in my pocket as I did so. I followed Destiny to the front and slowed down my pace when I realized it was Quentin. Once he spotted me, he walked over to me and I smiled
"Whatchu doing up here?"
"I need you to talk to my stupid ass brother"
"Elijah? What's wrong with him?"
Quentin gave me a look and I already knew
"That nigga ain said shit to me in days"
"I mean.. can you blame him Quentin.. honestly" I asked while I put my hands in my pockets and Quentin shook his head
"He know I ain mean to do it"
"But you did it. That's the thing. You know Elijah was protective over Lucas and now he feel like he failed cause look at what happened. In his own house" I whispered to Quentin
He sighed while running his hand across his face
"Well to lighten the mood, I heard everybody think Benji them did it. You told people that?" I asked with a laugh
"Nah. They just got they self caught in it and everybody pissed cause you know Lucas was cool with everybody. I know about 5 different niggas that want they heads now"
"That's fucked up.. for them" I laughed again as Destiny walked over to me with a folder in her hand
"That's the lady in room 4's folder"
"Alright" I responded and as she walked away Quentin's eyes followed her
"She gotta nigga?"
"Ion know. She cool and everything but she too cool with karma for me to fuck with her like that. She act like she single though, the way she bounce around in the niggas faces when they come up here"
"You said karma?" He seemed to catch onto that one part and I nodded. Just as I nodded, the bitch came walking on through, eyeing me before she walked past going to the desk behind me. I saw Quentin's eyes follow her ass the entire time
"I'm so sick of taking pregnancy tests" she complained to one of the other nurses and I rolled my eyes
"Think you pregnant with baby number 30 huh?" I asked and she looked back at me
"If I was pregnant with baby number 30, I'm pretty sure you'll still be desperate enough to have baby number 31 from him. Now let me get back to work and you talk to your friend" she replied before walking off
"Karma-girl... I need to get away from this job before I choke that bitch out"
Quentin laughed
"Nah I need you here"
"For what?"
He looked over at karma who was now talking to destiny, probably talking shit about me
"That Benji lil wifey ain it?"
"Mhmmm"
He kept his eyes on her "yeah ima need you here... swing by the house after you get off, Ight"
"Sure" I responded before giving him a hug and he left so I just went back to the break room to hide out again for a little longer, ready to get this day over with
