I watched Dave's phone ring for the third time in a row. It was Tia.
"You not gonna answer that?" I asked
"Nope." He ate another spoonful of cereal
"Come on Dave." I sighed. "Don't be like that. You could potentially have a child out here. What if she's calling about that?"
He shook his head. "Not my child, not my problem."
"You being childish as hell right now. What if it is yours?" I crossed my arms. "Then you gon be feeling bad about it. Accidents happen. But I'm not about to sit here and let you act like this towards an innocent child. That's foul and I would be fucked up to sit here and allow the shit."
"What?" He frowned. "What does this have to do with you?"
"I'm with you almost every day. You tell everybody I'm your girl. And as your "girl", if I sit here and let you neglect that baby, that would say a lot about my character."
He sighed and went into the kitchen.
"Why are you trying to avoid it?"
"I'm not."
"So what you doing then?"
"Thinking."
"Too late for that. The baby already here nigga."
"I know that baby isn't mine."
"Ok. Get a DNA test."
His phone rung again and I grabbed it.
"Hello?" I answered
"Hey.... Is Dave around?" Tia's voice came through the phone
I handed him the phone and he groaned.
"Wassup." "I was busy." "You know what, we will come get her." "Yeah we." "Better get used to it." "Whatever." Dave tossed the phone onto the couch
"What happened?"
"I was going to go pick the baby up but as soon as I said we, her whole attitude changed. Red flag number one." He walked out the living room.
His phone lit up and it showed that Tia had sent him a text. I went to the message and read it.
Tia
Just come and get her in like 30 minutes. I'm home
3:38PM
I walked to the bedroom and leaned against the doorframe. Dave was laying across the bed with his arm over his face.
"Get up and go get yo baby."
He smacked his lips. "Chill out."
"She said come get her. She just texted you."
He sat up and looked at me.
I tossed him his keys and went back to the living room.
"Don't even sit down. You going too."
"Why?"
"Come on." He opened the door to the apartment.
I got up and put my slides on before walking out the door.

"You nervous?" I asked as we got out of the car.
"Nah. I just know when something is off and this shit here ain't right. I NEVER fuck these hoes without a condom, ever. I always flush that shit or they swallow, so how the fuck did I get her pregnant?" He looked at me before knocking on the door
