Mistakes Made & Lessons Learned (Book #1)

Chapter 6

~*Leslie*~

As I lay in bed with David on top of me, I can't help but think about what my life has come to. I live a lavish lifestyle and I don't have to worry about nothing but I'm just not happy. I feel as though I failed myself because this is not the life I wanted to live. This moment makes me feel bad because I'm sitting here faking like David hitting all the right spots when he ain't hitting nothing! Ever since that day we had that argument, he been acting strange. He always wants to have sex and when we do have sex he acts like he has something to prove. I guess he just trying to show me what he has to offer but in all honesty he doesn't have anything I want except his money.

"You like how Big Daddy D make you feel?" He asks snapping me from my thoughts.

"Mhmm. I love Big Daddy D." I said then faked an orgasm.

The fact that I had to fake an orgasm made me sick to my stomach. I pushed David off of me and ran to the bathroom. I dropped to my knees and released the contents from the breakfast I just ate not too long ago. When I was finished I stood up and saw David standing in the doorway smirking.

"What you smirking for?" I asked trying to push past him but he pushed me back in the bathroom.

"David move out the way." I said trying to push past him again but he picked me up and sat me on the bathroom counter.

"Les I know you pregnant. You been throwing up for 2 weeks straight." He said kissing me all over. I rolled my eyes because I knew it was true but I wasn't telling him that.

"No I'm not now let me go." I said trying to get off the counter but he stopped me.

"Are you only telling me that because it's that nigga you cheating on me with baby?" He asked clenching his jaw.

"No, I'm saying it because I'm not." I said pushing him into the tub.

I hopped off the counter and walked into the room. I put my robe on and sat on the bed prepared for the fight that was about to happen. A minute later he stormed into the room and grabbed me by my neck. I clawed at his hand trying to get air into my lungs but David wasn't even David. His eyes were dark and I was scared for my life.

"Leslie stop lyin' to me! I know you cheating on me!" He said making his grip tighter.

I shook my head no with tears falling from my eyes. I guess he finally saw the pain he was causing because he let my neck go and walked out of the room. It took me five minutes to get my breathing back in order and when I did I ran into the bathroom to take a shower.

I walked out of the bathroom 10 minutes later and got dressed. I looked in the mirror and saw the bruises left on my neck. I grabbed any ole scarf and wrapped it around my neck to hide the bruises. I didn't even put make-up on, I just rushed down the stairs to the front door. When my hand reached the knob I heard David walk up behind me.

"Where you going?" He asked turning me around.

"To handle business." I said turning around and opening the door.

"Tell the bitch nigga the baby mine." He said walking away.

"Yup, this one sure is yours 'cause the last one ain't!" I said and slammed the door in his face.

I didn't realize what I said until I was inside my car and he was banging on my window. I rolled down my window and pepper sprayed him. When he dropped to the ground I started the car and pulled out of the drive-way. I no longer care about David so why should I keep acting like I do?
