*Two days before Egypts and Aiyden's Birthday trip*
❌TW: SA❌
I was packing my clothes for the trip when I suddenly got a text from my mom.
"Stop by the house when you find time. We need to talk."
I immediately stopped what I was doing and got dressed to leave. I walked downstairs and grabbed my keys off the counter and left.
******* Once I arrived at the house, I got out the car and went in.
"Ma. Where you at?" I yelled loud enough for her to hear me
"In Tyriek's room." She yelled back
I placed my keys on the key hook and walked back to the toddlers room.
"Hey ma." I said as I walked in the room.
Tyriek was in his crib sleep so we couldn't talk loud.
"King, i'm going to need you to take Tyriek to live with you."
"Why ma? What's going on?" I asked in a slight panicked tone
"They've given me six months King. My cancer is getting worse and i'm already stage 4. I don't want to fight anymore. So please take him and build a better relationship with him. I won't be here much longer King, and I don't want him to be like you were when your dad left."
"Why didn't you tell me sooner?" I said as a tear fell down my cheek, " You know I would have been here."
"I know you would have. But I have God. Regardless if I live or die, God has me. But now your son needs you."
Now before anyone judges me let me give y'all a little background. When I was fifteen, I went to a party with some "friends" from school. There was an eighteen year old girl there and she basically drugged me. She took to me to her home and molested me. She ended up getting pregnant but didn't want an abortion. So she had the baby, and dropped him off on my moms doorstep. I did a DNA test and the baby was mine. Once I came clean to my mom , she began the process of pressing charges, but she ended up getting killed when Tyriek was two months. So win-win I guess.
I've never hated my son nor neglected him for his egg donors stupidity. I have always been there for him and I would give my life for that little boy. It's just that I never told anyone about him besides Yasmine. My mom offered to raise him until I graduated high school, but now that her cancers gotten worse she can't uphold that offer. Which I guess is fine since we all decided to graduate early.
"King, don't worry about me. It's time for you to take car of yourself and your son. I'll be alright. Now come on and help me get his stuff."
Once we got all his stuff and packed it into my car, I put him in his car seat and buckled him up. I gave my mother a kiss and got in the car and left.
The whole way home I could only think about how much life was about to change. For one, I might not have my mother with me. And she's my whole world, besides Tyriek of course. Then two, how am I going to explain to everybody that i've had a kid for three years and never told anyone. Aiydens going to be hurt for sure. He's been like a brother to me since elementary, and I have been keeping the biggest part of my life from him.
But honestly I feel like my secret won't be the only thing being aired out on this trip.
