𝐒𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐲 | Rio [good girls]

catorce

I look at him. God he's so fucking tall. 6'7 to be exact.

This guy was Nia's father and my husband. We got married at a young age. We met in middle school and we were best friends ever since but when nia was five we got into a couple of fights because of stupid reasons I can't remember now. We got divorced and he said he needed some time. I said ok because when he said "time" I thought maybe a week, 2 weeks or maybe the longest: a month. But 3 YEARS?! I would've never thought 3 motherfucking years.

"I'm back." He said as he looked at me straight in the eyes.

"Are you kidding me? That's all you have to say? I haven't seen you in 3 years jalen" I say to him and i knew he could tell that I was still hurt from when he left.

"Let me come in Kalani, please." He says as he looks down at me.

All I see in front of me is a fucking douchebag standing on my front porch. It's sad how he thinks I'll just be like "oh yes please come in, I've missed you so fucking much." I have missed him though, it's sad, i know.

"Fuck to the no" I say.

"Please" he replies. He looks miserable he really does.

I feel bad. I'm not the type of person who would do something bad and not feel guilty. I feel guilty about shit I shouldn't feel guilty about, it's sucks but I can't help it.

I look at him for a couple seconds thinking about what I should do.

I sigh and open the door wider and step to the side.

He slowly comes in.

"Do you have somewhere to sleep?" I ask him quietly feeling bad about the way I had talked to him before.

"No..."

"Just ask." I tell him. He looks at me confused

"What?" He asks.

"Just ask me if you can stay here." I tell him.

"Is it oka-" he starts but i cut him off.

"Sure BUT you will stay here for a couple days to sort your shit out and then you're gone." I tell him.

"But i came for you and nia." He tells me.

"Yes, you did but 3 years late maybe wasn't the right time." I reply. He stares at me.

It's crazy how I haven't seen this man in SO long but I forgave him that quickly.

I still love him. It's wrong to say but I do, he was a great father to nia and a great husband to me. He would never or had ever laid a hand on me or our daughter which I'm greatful for. He was honestly such a good guy. He really was, and those feelings I had for him just don't magically disappear.  I can't just hide my feelings. I love jalen and I've missed him so much.

We went into the living room and just talked about where he was and what had happened to him. He told me he had been living in Phoenix, Arizona most of the years he was gone, but that's pretty much it. He says that nothing much has happened and that he just minded his business. Which I believe because jalen is a quiet guy. He doesn't really talk unless spoken too.

It's weird because I feel like jalen hasn't been gone at all. We were just sharing some smiles and laughs a couple minutes ago but it feels like he has been here the whole 3 years he's been gone...

We also talked about what has been going on in my life.

Obviously i didn't tell him about Rio and hopefully he doesn't find out because I have no idea how he'd react to another man in my life. Jalen is over protective and I love him for that but if he found out about Rio I'd be a little worried.

"I've missed you"

( if you were wondering who plays jalen ^)
