Here is the rest of chapter 8 my lovely readers.

Carmen.
Three good reasons.
And I can't come up with one.
"How about I'm afraid," I ask. He laughs and throws a ball across the court.
"That's a bullshit excuse that you come up with all the time to keep yourself from loving me Carmen. But the problem is is that you do love me," he states.
I know I do.
"What if you hurt me? There's so many women out here trying so hard to be with you and you want me," I say.
"Exactly I want you," he replies and starts dribbling a ball.

"Why are you two at my door? It's five o'clock y'all should either be having sex or on a date. But you're at my door interrupting our sex," Johanna states making me laugh. Justin and Damon sit and talk on the couch while Johanna and I head in the kitchen. "Tell me what's wrong it's written all over your face."
"I have a secret Johanna and you're gonna be pissed and if Justin ever found out he'd kill me," I whisper glancing over my shoulder at Justin talking with Damon on the couch.
"What is it Carmen," she asks in a serious tone.
"Promise not to freak first," I say.
"I can't promise and you better tell me," she states dragging me to her bedroom and snatching the door closed.
"Umm..."
My throat feels dry.
I can't really breathe.
It's a secret.
A big secret.
"Tell me Meme," Johanna says.

I can do this.
"I-I had a baby when I was seventeen... with Justin going off to school and playing ball I decided to keep my pregnancy a secret and after I heard that Justin was sleeping around up here it made it easier for me to," I admit.
"What the hell Carmen I know you're kidding," Johanna states with her hand over her mouth.
"I was a scared kid. I didn't know what to do. My Mom came up with the idea to pretty much take care of him while I went to school. I call him when I can and whenever I visit home I'm with him. He knows I'm his mother and that Justin is his dad he just has never met him," I explain.
"I can't believe my ears," Johanna states shaking her head. "This is why you act the way that you do Carmen you're hiding this big ass secret."
"After I got pregnant my parents moved from Charlotte, North Carolina to Virginia. My Dad told everyone it was because his job. Up there I didn't have to keep him a secret as long as I kept him from Justin," I explain.
"You have to tell him," Johanna yells in disbelief.
"Tell me what," Justin asks busting into the bedroom.
Oh my god.
