Our Little Secret

Fifty-Six

Nicki sighed, finally sitting down on her bed.

"Okay, you're supposed to be on bedrest for the next six weeks. Is there anything you'd like me to do to make you more comfortable?"

Nicki had hired a private doctor for herself and a full time nanny for Rihmeek.

"Um, no I'm fine. Thank you," Nicki smiled.

The doctor nodded. "Well, I'll be in the room if you need me."

Nicki nodded, taking off her clothes. Laying down in her bed, she pulled the covers up and grabbed her phone, sighing. She had a few missed calls from Meek, which she declined for obvious reasons.

I'm sorry

Nicki rolled her eyes, looking at Meek's text. She immediately started texting back.

Save your sorry. I'm done Meek. I can't do this shit anymore. Somebody's gonna end up hurt fucking with your unstable ass. Stop texting and calling my phone. I'm done.

She hit send, then locked her phone as a tear rolled down her cheek. Sitting up, she rubbed her stomach, calming herself down.

"Thank you, lord for my three little blessings," she smiled.

|3 Months Later|

"Heyyy, baby mamaaaa," Adrian smiled, sitting down at the island in Nicki's condo.

"Hi, babe. How are you?" Nicki smiled.

Adrian opened her bag of food.

"I'm good. You want some of this?"

"What is it?" Nicki asked.

Adrian looked at it. "Japanese food."

"Mm, yeah," Nicki nodded.

Adrian nodded and got up, getting two plates. She divided the food evenly on both plates, then got up, throwing her trash away.

"Aww, you're getting bigger. You're such a cute little mommy," Adrian smiled, sitting back down.

Nicki laughed a little, sitting down.

"I thought being pregnant with one baby was tiring, but two? Then on top of that I have a two year old whose current interest is seeing how fast he can run away from Mommy."

Adrian laughed. "Girl, tell me about it. Avery ain't no better. She really has a smart ass mouth and a bad attitude."

"She gets it from you," Nicki laughed.

"I know, but damn. It's so hard watching her grow up. I miss her being my little baby."

Nicki smiled. "That's how I feel about Rihmeek, but he's so precious and he's a mama's boy."

"I can tell," Adrian giggled. "By the way, Meek has been asking to see you."

Nicki rolled her eyes. "Nope. I allow him to see Rihmeek whenever he wants, but I am not letting him see me."

"Nic, he's drinking his life away."

Nicki sighed, dropping her fork down on the plate. She put her face in her hands, shaking her head. Adrian looked at her before seeing a tear drop onto the island.

"Oh, Nic.."

She got up, walking around, rubbing her back. Nicki sniffled, bouncing her leg rapidly.

"I want him to stop," Nicki said, sniffling again.

"Me too, but it's only getting worse."

Adrian got a few Kleenex tissues, helping Nicki wipe under her eyes.
