Melody POV
I hand Vince a cup of coffee and he thanks me; still looking at Vicky playing with her barbies on the floor in front of us.

"I cant believe she's my child." He states.

"Well believe it. You fu-"

Im interrupted by an annoying buzzing sound as Vince pulls out his phone, checking it.

"I uh have to go. But ill see you tomorrow." He stutters standing up and cautiously walks around Vicky as if she's a wild animal.

He walks out the door and I hear a whistle from the steps. Looking over I see Blessing and she's leaning against the railing.

"Well...that was quite the show." She smirks

I sigh, "You saw"

"Mhm. I cant believe you told him. You're getting soft on me Melody. Just a week ago you were raging about not telling him...now you're letting him in." She states

"Im not going soft! I just...I don't know, I went with him to his stupid high school thing and when I saw the way he was acting with the kids....how happy he made them...I wanted it for Vicky." I explain

"Does Vicky know who he is?" She comes down the steps and sits next to me.

"No. She thinks he's just one of my friends." I shrug

"You better tell her the truth. She's 5 now....she can handle it...I know she can"Blessing smiles at the oblivious five year old.

I sigh looking over at Vicky. I just don't want to start more shit for her.
