I'm Still Here: Sequel For 'Step Daddy No'

Chapter 76

"I still can't believe that my baby is gonna have a baby". I laughed at how stupid my mother sounded.

We stood in my kitchen. Well.. mom was. I was sitting on a chair at the counter filled with all kinds of food. The kitchen seemed to be my favourite place of the house until this day of my pregnancy.

The house had a pool. Michael made sure the house had a gym too. I would've killed him if he didn't. The babies nursery was already set. There were still rooms that we hadn't decided what to do with as yet.

"I'm a woman now mom, not a baby". She looked at me as if she couldn't believe it. We've been through this before. But in a way she was right. I would always be her baby.

"Well I know that". She fanned me off with her hand, but I just smiled. I didn't know what was going on with her relationship. Like if she was gonna get married but she didn't say. I liked the guy. He was kinda cool. He couldn't be here because he was on a business trip. That was totally cool with me.

I watched as people crowded my home. Most of them I knew but others I didn't. But some of those that I thought I didn't knew looked familiar still. I wasn't certain of where Michael was at the moment, but I guess he'll find me soon.

Everyone that came brought gifts. Wendy showed them where to put them.

I didn't like the idea of the gifts. We were more than capable of buying whatever we needed for our babies, but I guess they knew that. I'll just burnt them after. No one should have anything over me.

'You know, I was the one who gave her that'. Nope, don't want that. I know how people were these days.

I spotted Monique a few times but I didn't know where she disappeared to. We spoke earlier. It seemed as if she was happy.

I'd only keep what Eva and all my friends and families gave. It might sounded selfish but I didn't trust those people.

I was really happy that Leon didn't die. I didn't have that on my conscience. If I was ever gonna be in any danger or anything at all I won't call him. Michael and I knew not to believe any crap from anyone without confronting each other, but I wasn't used to the part where whenever he got me mad I'd keep it to myself without involving Monique or Leon, but now was different. I wouldn't let them know when things weren't so good. I also wouldn't let them know when things were great either. I'd let them wonder. It also almost felt like Monique was avoiding me.

I didn't really blamed her. I almost got her husband killed.

I took a huge bite of the burger in my hand. I on the other hand, I couldn't walk normal. I had to walk slow and wide. It actually felt like the baby was going to drop out. It made me felt like I'd have the baby right there and then. Worst that I'm not far from delivering.

"I see your lost in thought. I'll leave you to think". I looked at her.

"What? No mom. It's fine. What were you saying". I said with my mouth full.

"It's ok sweetie". She gestured with her eyes the direction of the doorway. Oh Michael was walking towards us.

I nodded trying to chew the rest of the burger, swallowing bit by bit. Mom walked off, but not before she patted Michael's shoulder before she left.

Michael put both of his hands on both sides of my enormous belly, observing it in a funny way that made me giggled.

"You look like your being tortured. Look how big your belly is". I swallowed the rest of the burger. My legs were already wide apart so he just stepped in.

"This is why I should be highly respected. As a matter of fact all good mothers who gave birth should be highly respected". I smiled sweetly.

"But you haven't gave birth yet". He said closer to my face. I gave him my death glare.
