Beauty & The Beast

35

Ari POV

"Look at my face" I complain. My shit is naturally fat but today I woke up and it's definitely swollen. Tae claims you can't tell but he just want me to go to the mall with him

"It really don't look bad. Just put your shades back on" Tae say

"Why do you even want to go to the mall" I ask

"For one you don't even have a room for your child and for two it's damn near Christmas" Tae say

Thanksgiving came and went and I actually did spend it with Kenya and Kayleigh. Madison went back to Chicago. She was pissed I didn't go but I was actually really comfortable with them. Creed was even a little upset about it. At the rate I'm going I am never getting out the talking phase

"Well Madison is gone I just have to find someone to come and clear it out" I say "or you and Santana can do it"

"Get to googling hoe" Tae say

"Have gay friends they said it'll be fun" I mock "these hoes just chase dick"

"Girl I'm trying to help you. I know you haven't Christmas shopped" Tae say

Never been big with holidays. I guess when you come from a money hungry family you stop expecting the movie shit. They don't care for the memories just what you got them and how much you spent.

"I just have to get a few gifts" my friends and it's pretty easy for me to shop for them.

"Please Ari" Tae whine "we never do anything together. You always with Creed"

"I thought you liked her" I say

"I do but like damn bitch go run the streets give me my hours" I started laughing. Now that part I'm still adjusting to like it's nine at night and she not making moves she's in the bed. If it's mine we cuddling if it's hers we on FaceTime. I like it.

"You the one be at work" I say

"Are you telling me not to go" Tae raise his eyebrow

"Not all the time. You can come over here" I'm not going to deny the fact this baby makes me lazy. I barely ever go to the shop. For one it's always nasty outside and I don't do the rain or the cold. It's not for me. "You deserve it" because Tae has definitely stepped up. Whenever I decide to get off my ass and open my second shop he will run the first one. Not because he's my best friend but he stepped up when I needed him the most

"Four months and that big" Tae say "I can just imagine at nine"

"I'm almost five months" I smile. Soon my baby is going to be here. Know I'm ready well Kinda "and I came up with a really pretty name" honestly my baby not even that big which is crazy because all I do is eat. The weight sticking to me instead of the baby

I really want to go see Kay and show her my bump, talk about my pregnancy, and tell her the name I decided on but that neither here nor there.

"Mall bitch. That's where I want to go" Tae say 

"Okay fine" I say

I was already dressed seeing as though it's the middle of the day. I put on some uggs and just ran my fingers through my hair

After getting everything we headed to the parking garage. "I don't have gas we have to take yours"

"See bitch I already don't want to go and now you want me to drive" I say

"I'll drive" Tae say grabbing my keys

"And I think I need a new tire or something. Look at it please" I say
