* 6 weeks later *

The last weeks were, without a doubt, the best of my life so far. Josh was the most perfect son I could have wished for, he was polite, well behaved, pretty intelligent and simply adorable. 3 weeks ago he had called me "Mommy" for the first time. We had went to the park and he fell off the swing and when I had rushed over to him

Yes, I'm a veeeeery protective Mom!!!

to ask him if he had hurt himself, he pointed to to his knee and cried "yes Mommy, there!" I'll never forget this moment and no one can imagine, what that word means to me. We also had spent the weekends with Marshall and the girls, we all had grown very close. By now Hailie, Laney and I went out shopping and getting our nails and hair done, twice. They even called me to ask for advice, if they didn't want to talk to their Mom and Dad. Whitney had totally accepted Josh as her little brother, the two were just too cute to see together. Overall everything was great. Except my relationship with Marshall.
Don't get me wrong, I knew I had a hardworking man as my boyfriend and he definitely wouldn't be the greatest rapper of all time, if he wouldn't be so determined. But the last 2 weeks, he hardly called or texted, sometimes not for days. Only the weekends I would see him and then I would be the one, spending time with the kids, while he was in his homestudio. The only times I had him to myself, were at night and believe me, then I had his full attention. He could be so sweet and affectionate towards me and then he wouldn't call.

Uuuuuuuuhhhhh.... i knew he would drive me insane!!!

Today was Friday and I had just picked up Josh from kindergarten, when Kim called me.
Yes, Kim had my phone numbers too. We even met once at a coffee shop and tbh we get along pretty good. I understand that people think she's the biggest bitch on earth and she never tried to hide it that her and Marshall's relationship was horrible sometimes; often because of her; but she had changed and that was what mattered to me.
"Hey Kim, how are you?" I answered over my speaker.
"Hey Tina, I'm good. How are you?"
"I'm good. What can I do for you?" I asked her.
"Listen, I talked to Marshall and I'm about to bring Whitney over to the studio. I thought that maybe, you come over and we could grab a coffee at the shop around the corner?!"
"If it's okay that Josh's with me, then sure." I told her.
"We could leave him with Whit for a bit?!" She suggested.
"Sure, I'm not far away anyway. Should we meet there?"
"Yeah, I maybe need 20 minutes. But I think Marshall will be happy to see you. So we'll meet inside?!"
"Good. See you in a few Kim!"
"Yup, see ya!"
And we hung up. I turned my car around and drove over to the studio, which was just 3 minutes from here. I drove through the gates, parked my car, got Josh out and walked with him on my hand, inside the building.
Jessica, the girl from the frontdesk, jumped up immediately, when she saw me coming in with Josh. She adored my son and everytime I came over, she played with him.
"Hey Tina!" She smiled at me and bent down to hug Josh,"hey cutie!" He returned her hug and I asked her where Marshall was.
"I guess at the lounge area" she told me and went on "you want to leave him with me?"
"That would be great. Kim and Whitney will be here in a few minutes too. Can you please send them over then?"
"Sure" she answered and took Josh behind her desk and I walked to the lounge area.
I stepped in and was greeted by Royce, Denaun, Yelawolf and some other guys.
After the hugging ceremony and some smalltalk, I looked around but couldn't find Marshall.
"Where is he?" I asked Royce and he went silent and slightly pale.
"Uh....." he started, rubbing his neck "I don't know, maybe at his office?!"
"Alright, I'll go search for him!" I said, turning and walked out towards his office.
"Yo, Tina, wait...." I heard Denaun behind me, but I pretended to not hear him and walked on. I had a bad feeling and I needed to find out what was going on.
On my way I passed at little hallway and stopped dead in my tracks.
There stood my boyfriend. Pushed against a wall, with his back and a way to slutty bleach blond bitch kissing him. One hand on his cheek, the other in his pants.

This can't be true!! It's a nightmare! I'll wake up any minute.....

I just stood, frozen to the spot and I could felt anger taking over my body.

Don't make a scene!! You're better than that!! And DON'T KILL HIM!! Get out off here NOW!!!!!

I decided to let him know, I was here and that I had seen everything, so I coughed once. He turned his head immediately towards me and his eyes widened at my sight. I just looked at him shaking my head and walked off to the front, feeling my eyes getting watery.

Not now! Not in front of Josh!!

I grabbed Josh, mumbling "sweetie we have to go now" and was out the door.
I was close to my car, when I heard Kim calling my name.
"Tina, hey..." she said walking over to me and stopped instantly, when I turned around and she saw my face. She pulled me in a hug and whispered in my ear.
"What happened? What did he do?" She released me and I looked down at my feet, in-and exhaling deeply, before I looked up at her and the first tear ran over my cheek.
"Not in front of my son, Kim! I can't! I..." and the next tear dropped down.
"Whit, get Josh and go into my car, please!" She ordered and Whitney came over and took Josh away. They got into Kim's car and I was about to speak, when I heard Marshall behind me coming out the door and yelling my name.
"Tina! Tina please! It's not what it looked like! Tina..."
"YOU!!" Kim started and stood in my front to shield me from him, "I know that 'it's not what it looks like' from you. I can only imagine, what she saw in there!" She almost yelled at him.
"Kim, that has nothing to do with you. Let me talk to her!" He told her in an angry tone and tried to step around her. "Tina, please! I would never do that to you. Beautiful please, you have to believe me! It's..."Kim cut him off with a sarcastic laugh.
"Yeah, a'right!"
I just stood, shielded from Kim, in front off my car, trying very hard not to break down.

Why does this happen to me again?!?!?! God please.... WHY?????

"Kim, I told you. This is not your problem.." Marshall tried again, this time yelling at her. But she cutted him off again.
"It IS my problem!!" She now also yelled back at him, "she is my friend Marshall and sadly now, we have a lot more in common than ever before!" He was about to say something back,when I found the strength to speak.
"Please, not in front off the kids. I don't want them to hear and see this!"
"Tina please..." Marshall tried again to step around Kim, but she pointed her finger at him and gave him a death glare.
"Stay away from her Marshall or help me God, I'll flip the shit here!" She turned around and looked at me with a soft expression on her face.
"Tina, tell me what can I do? What do you want?"
"I want to get away from here!" I answered her, tears still flowing.
"Then we'll do that! Let's get into your car. I'll take Josh with me, we'll meet at yours. I don't want you to be alone now. I know what can happen, when this Fucker breaks someone's heart!"

Oh my..... do I look suicidal to her?!?!

"Come on, let's go!" She opened my car door and I got in, starting the engine right away. I backed out off the parking lot and drove towards the gates. I let the tears run freely and took a last look in the rearview mirror. Kim was about to get into her car and Marshall stood, his head hanging down in the middle of the parking area.

I really thought he loved me. But guess he was right, it is hard to be with him and now it's over.....
