*Milan

I finally made made it to Melody's. She came and picked me up from the airport. And we were sitting at the kitchen table. She was eating hot Cheetos with some cream cheese. I can't even lie it looked good.

"You eyeing this, you want some??" She asked making me look at her

I nodded.

She pushed it towards me. I grabbed 2 chips and scooped up some cream cheese with them. I started eating it. I moaned and closed my eyes. That shit was sooo good.

"This is a pregnancy craving..." she said looking at me

"So, what that supposed to mean??" I asked looking up at her

"I'm just letting you know..." she said

"Whatever..." I said eating more

We were sharing it.

"So what you needed to get away from??" She asked

"Just the city. I been having too much going on in my little life right now that it's overwhelming and me staying there isn't helping..." I said honestly

"Wanna talk about it??" She asked

"Not right now. I just wanna enjoy myself and not think about that..." I said and she nodded

"You have anyone new in your life??" She asked

I rolled my eyes.

"These people only care about themselves. They don't care how their action effect others. From here on out I would like to be alone until find somebody who's for me, all about me. Somebody who cares and let me know so..." I said

She was looking at me for a second.

"You sure you're okay..." she said touching my hand

I nodded before getting up. Soon as I got up a wave a nausea hit me. I ran to the bathroom and threw up. When I got through, I sat up, and Melody was beside me. I looked up at her.

"I got up too fast, I got a lil nauseous..." I said and she nodded

She passed me tissue.

"You should lay down and get some rest..." she said
"Did you get any sleep on the plane??"

"No I didn't sleep..." I said

"Well go in the guest room, get some rest, and when you wake up I'll have something to eat waiting for you..." she said making me smile

I stood up.

"Thank you..." I said hugging her

I went into the room and laid across the bed. I didn't have much to do cuz I left my phone back home. I needed time to myself, time to get myself together, and time to just be me without distraction. Also, I need to find out what I'm going to do.

I was drowned in my thoughts but I took time to clear my mind. After clearing my mind, my eyes got heavy and fell asleep.

I finally woke up and smelt food. I got up went to the bathroom, did what I needed, washed my hands, and went to the kitchen. Melody was standing in front of the stove.

"What you cooking??" I asked and she jump

"Milan what the fuck..." She said looking at me

"My bad..." I said laughing a lil

"Asshole..." she says making me laugh harder
"But I'm cooking gumbo. I know that's your favorite..."

"It smells good..." I said licking my lips

"Trust me it is..." She said looking at me

We talked for a while before the food was done. She told me to go sit and she'll fix the food. I sat down, she brought our plates, got us drinks and we started eating. She right that shit was good. While eating the door opened.

"BABY I'M H—..." I heard

I turned around and I seen my mom at the door. I stared at her as she stared back at me.

"What!?" I said softly before looking at Melody

She was looking at me too.

"WHAT??" I yelled

Melody opened her mouth to say some but it closed back. She reached her hand out to touch me but I pulled back.

"Milan honey w—..." mom started

"WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON??" I yelled standing up from the chair

"We didn't want you to find out like this..." Mom said walking in front of me and stood beside Melody

"What's been going on between you two??" I asked looking at the both of them

They were looking at each other. Melody was rubbing her hands together which she died when she get nervous. Then, Mom turned to look at me.

"TELL ME!!" I yelled

"We're married..." my mom said

I stared at the both of them not believing what I heard.

"Milan we wanted to tell you but I wanted to fix our relationship first. I was giving it time and we were both going to tell you when the time was right..." mom said

"I didn't wanna leave you in the blind, trust me. But we were worried that you wouldn't accept us or even approve of this..." Melody said walking to me
"We didn't mean to fall in love but we did. We hid our love from you which I wish we shouldn't done. But we did. We're sorry..."

They both were looking at me. The tears in my eyes stung as I started at them. I blinked as I felt the tears fall down my face.

I can't believe they didn't tell me about this. I wouldn't have cared about them being together it's the fact that y'all kept y'all whole fucking relationship from me. Y'all kept your wedding and marriage from me. And y'all kept that I was having a sibling from me. Like how could they.

"Milan..." Mom said walking to me

I shook my head with tears still running.

"I'm sorry. I should've told you..." she said

I felt my heart beating against my chest. I felt like I had to throw up. I grabbed my mouth and ran to the bathroom. I made it to toilet and it just started flowing out. I felt my hair begin pulled up.

"It's okay..." I heard Melody say and I felt a hand rubbing my back

I finally stopped and slouched against the toilet.

"Why you keep throwing up??" Melody asked me while her and mom were looking at me

"You know I throw up on my period..." I said wiping my mouth

"And I also know when your lying..." she said

I rolled my eyes and let out a sigh.

"Milan what's wrong??" She asked

I bit my lip and let out a soft sigh.

"I'm pregnant..."
