~Last day of vacation~

-Chanelle p.o.v-

These past two weeks in this vacation house have been really fun. Hakeem's been treating me like 'The Queen I Am' as he calls it. And I just been enjoying myself. The first night was kinda edgy. Hakeem was so distant because he knows I'm hiding something. But I talked him in to trusting me and letting go of his guard. He did, after a while. And everything's been normal ever since. I don't know why it was so hard for him to let his guard down. We've been together at least what 9 months? And I've never done anything for him to doubt me or my faithfulness. Maybe he let the money go to his head, because I've been ahunnind with this relationship from the jump. And he knows that.

He better know that.

Today's our last day in the vacation house. I don't wanna go but I have things to take care of. Mainly the Dolls and this baby. My stomach has a noticeable bump in it. I'm excited! Hakeem hasn't noticed yet anyway. No shock. He's rarely observant. He didn't even notice that his mom cut her hair until I said something. Even then he still didn't notice. But anyway, my stomachs pretty big for four months. But then again I only have meat in certain places and my stomach is not one of them. I try not to show it too much so Hakeem can't tell to the difference. Although he's rarely observant I didn't want to take any chances. I been avoiding my usual walking around in my bra and panties these last few weeks. I wear really baggy clothes instead. You'd think the man you're around 24/7 would take a slight notice to something like this. Guess not.

"Aight You ready?" Hakeem asks coming into the room and sitting on the opposite side of the bed.

"For what? Is the car here already?" I ask while zipping my bag up. I placed my bags by the door as he responded.

"No. It's not here yet. But we need to talk." He looked at me in all seriousness. I nod and sit down with my legs stretched out on the bed.

"Okay about what?" I ask looking at him.

"Don't play dumb. It's our last day here.... On our first night here what did you tell me you was gonna do on the last day?" He asks looking me in my eyes. I think for a minute.

"Oh." I respond nervously while standing up slowly. I paced around the front of the bed for a minute or two while thinking of a way to tell the man that I love I've been hiding a 4 month pregnancy.

Nothing came to mind.

I sighed as I leaned on the dresser.

"I thought by now I'd be ready to tell you. But.... I guess I'm not." I say lowly. He sighs slightly.

"You know you can tell me anything. There's nothing you should feel like you can't tell me." He states moving to the bottom of the bed.

I sighed and covered my face. I felt a few tears slip out of my eyes as I thought about the situation... Jus do it Chanelle. He loves you. He said it himself. He's not gonna blow things out of proportion.... Right? Iont know hoe, quit talkin to yourself and see.

"Is this about the fact you been fuvkin around with other niggas. Now they blowin ya phone up. Programmed as 'IGNORE' and shvt." He says smiling as he lit a blunt that was tucked behind his ear. I took my hands down quickly.

"What?" I ask confused looking down at him. He stood up and took a couple puffs while walking over to me.

"Yeah. You ain't think I'd find out?" He asked standing right in front of me.

I just looked at him confused. Find out? Find out about what? Jada said he doesn't know I'm pregnant. That's all I'm hiding from him!! What is he talking about?! Before I could ask he started talking again.
