He sighed. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"I tried to, but I guess I pussied out."

I sat on my bed, staring down at Kenji's contact. I took deep breaths. I did that everyday, but I failed to press the call button every single time. I closed my eyes and hit it. I put it on speaker.

First ring. Second ring. Third ring.

"Hello?" He picked up the phone.

I took a deep breath.

"Hello?" He asked again.

"H-Hey." I spoke up. "Hey. It's Alex."

"I know." He said. "What do you need?"

"I just wanted to talk about something-"

"Look, I'm sorry for leaving that night. It was for the best and you need to understand that."

"Kenji I-"

"Alex, stop. We're not good for each other. That's facts. I can't give you what you need or what you want. That's the truth. We're just not made for each other."

I looked to the ceiling as frustration built up. Hot tears ran down my cheeks.

"No. I need to-"

"I gotta go. Have a good night." He hung up the phone.

He hung up on me.

I took a deep breath, picking my phone up and chucking it at the wall.

"Stupid ass bum ass bitch ass pussy ass nigga!" I yelled.

I sat back, rubbing my belly.

"We'll get through this." I whispered. "I promise."

My door slowly opened.

"Hey." Zara walked in, in her pajamas.

"Hey." I wiped my tears.

Zara was seven months pregnant with her second child, a girl.

"Mind if I lay with you?" She asked.

"Come on." I faintly smiled through my tears.

She climbed in bed with me and hugged me. "We'll get through this. I promise. I got you. Lorenzo and I are here for you. He won't say anything."

"Aye I got you too." Lucia slid in with her house shoes. "Fyi."

She climbed in bed with us. "And when my niece or nephew is born, I will be the best auntie ever."

"No, that'll be me." Zara rolled her eyes.

"No. Me."
