Risk It All

Chapter 5: Say Yes

**Alexis' parents in the mm**

-The Next Morning-

Andre (Alexis Dad) POV:

I walked into Symone's TEMPORARY room to aggravate her mean ass. I saw her in the bathroom washing her face. I hugged her from behind. For a minute she blushed, but she changed her facial expression quickly.

"What do you want Andre?" Symone asked.

"You" I said smirking.

"Boy get up off me" she said.

"Boy? I'm a grown man, but breakfast is ready baby" I told her.

She smiled at me and walked to her bathroom. I watched her ass and thought to myself "Damn, that ass got fatter." I'm definitely getting my wife back, and that's a fact.

Alexis' POV
My fat ass woke up to the smell of food. I quickly got up to handle my hygiene. When I arrived downstairs, I was greeted with pancakes, eggs, bacon, and grits. Somebody threw down.

"Good morning you guys" I said full of energy.

Seeing all of this deliciousness on the table got ya girl hyped.

"Well someone woke up in a good mood. Maybe you can rub some of that energy on your mother" my dad said.

"Andre please don't make me punch you in your throat" my mama said.

I decided now would be the perfect time to bring up what I peeped last night.

"Well, Daddy must not have did something right last night when I saw him sneaking out of your room" I said sipping my orange juice.

If only you could see their reaction. They looked like a deer caught in headlights.

"Mind your business little girl" my mama said with a wink.

Just nasty. They are too old for that. After I finished breakfast, I decided to go bond with my little brother. He had me watching Paw Patrol. While I was with him, my phone got a notification from yours truly. DeVante. He CLAIMS that Kailand wants to have a play date with Hakeem. But I know he just wants to see me. I'm not gonna flex, I wanna see him too. So I told him to come on over.

After cleaning up around the house, the doorbell rung. Dee stood there smiling while holding Kailand.

"Awww! My babyyy!" I yelled.

"Aww someone's excited to see daddy" Dee said smirking.

"Nigga not you, Kailand" I said reaching out to her.

I brought Kailand into the den with Hakeem and watched them play and do whatever kids do.

"Lexi, umm I'm sorry about yesterday" DeVante spoke up.

"Why did you leave me?" I asked.

"After I calmed her down, I turned around to check on you, and you were gone" he said.

He was right. I had to leave up out of there before I caught a case.

"What do you see in her?" I asked.

His mood seemed to change.

"I mean at first things was all good kinda. She was just an insecure girl, and I wanted to be the dude she could depend on ya feel me. Now it seems like the only thing she depend on is my pockets. I have love for her but I'm not in love with her, and I honestly don't know what to do" he said venting.

Now I'm mad. It's bitches like Jayda who break the good niggas' hearts. Then the good niggas don't know a good girl when they see one, and their trust is fucked up forever. I wish he would open his eyes, and realize that I'm the girl he needs! Ugh..wishful thinking.

"Maybe you should have a talk with her, and see if this is really a relationship you want to stay in. I personally feel like something is off with her. She gives me a bad vibe" I said giving him my honest opinion.

Is it bad that I'm hoping this relationship doesn't work out? Oh well. Sue me.

"You have to let me make up for yesterday" he said.

"How exactly are you gonna do that?" I asked.

"Don't worry about all that. When I text you later on tonight be ready" he said in all seriousness.

"Don't talk to me like I'm your child stupid, but I'll be ready" I said smiling.

Hours went by of us laughing and talking like always. I'm so glad we got over that little situation from yesterday. Him and I both know we can't be mad at each other for long. After all that's my damn ba-bestfriend.

Jayda's POV
"Did you get the money?" My boyfriend asked.

"No. He was with some bitch, and I showed out. Now I have to get back in his good graces" I said.

"Jayda wtf! You had one job. That was supposed to be rent money. You so damn stupid" he yelled.

"Well damn Bryce! Maybe if your broke ass get a real job. We won't have to depend on him" I yelled back instantly regretting it.

Soon as the words left my mouth, he slapped me.

"Get the money" he said sternly and walked away.

I sat there rubbing my cheek. I should've got out of this toxic relationship when I had the chance. It feels like I'm stuck in this relationship now. I can't keep living like this. This is now a matter between life and death.
