Jackie POV
"The baby is all healthy and full of energy. How are the vitamins working for you?" The doctor asked me.
"Great! They're working fine thank you" I said with a smile.
"When do we find out the gender?" Roddy asked, yes he came with me. No we're not together but he's still the father of my child. And for that, he has my respect as the father.
"Well Jaqueline is 4 months now, so the next appointment in 7 weeks you guys will find out the gender." The doctor said.
"We gone have somebody else get the results." Roddy said.
"Yep" I said.
"Oh, you guys must be having a gender reveal." The doctor said and we both chuckled.
"Yeah we are, and a baby shower later, like when I'm 8 months." I said.
"Well congratulations, let's get you cleaned up" She said with a smile, then cleaned the cold gel off of my belly.
"Thank you doctor" I said, she said "Don't mention it!" And left out the room.
"I'm glad our baby is healthy." Rodrick said.
"Me too" I said.
He put his hand on my belly, rubbing it softly.
"You told your dad and brother yet?" Rodrick asked me.
"Nah, I haven't heard from neither one like that." I said shrugging.
"How do you feel about that?" He asked.
"I don't feel anything.." I said.
"You scared." Rodrick said.
"Scared?" I asked.
"Yes." He replied.
"Scared of what?" I asked.
"To express how you really feel with me.. That's my fault though. Jackie, I love you.." He said.
"I know Rodrick." I said with a sigh.
"I'm sorry I made you feel otherwise. But baby, I need you to know.. I don't want anyone else. You do know that don't you?" Rodrick asked me.
"Sometimes I don't know Rodrick." I said shrugging.
"You love me?" He asked.
"Of course I do, with all my heart." I said.
"Then we have something worth fighting for. But baby you gotta fight with me.. I can't do this alone." Rodrick said grabbing my hand.
"You can't keep screwing up out here man.." I said.
"I know.. And look... I gotta talk to you. Before we can even move forward." Rodrick said sighing, sitting next to me.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Doja hit me up the other day." He said.
"Okay?" I said.
"She's saying... That she's pregnant." Rodrick said, rubbing his face.
"By you?" I asked.
"Yes.." Rodrick said.
"You didn't use a condom?" I asked.
"I didn't have one and- No.. I didn't use one Jackie. I'm so sorry... That I keep hurting you." He said, I sighed covering my face.
If it ain't one thing it's another with this nigga.
"I'm sorry I keep messing up Jackie.. Man I'm sorry I even brought you here. I am.. But I'm gonna still get a DNA. Because I pulled out." Rodrick said.
"Bye Rodrick." I said getting up from my seat, grabbing my purse.
"Jackie wait" He said.
"What?" I said with an attitude.
"I-I'm sorry Jackie.. I really am." He said sighing.
"Yeah you are sorry." I said back, heading out the doctor's office.

Bird POV
I was in my house, writing some music and just thinking.
I've been distant, from Roddy and Jackie. That dream I had, was all it was. A dream.
I don't have feelings for Jackie like that. We best friends, our friendship has always been great for me. And Roddy is my best friend, I would never do him like that.
A nigga just been kickin it wit Jackie a lot, and I assume that's why I had a dream about her.
My door bell rang, and I sighed getting up and walking to the door.
I looked through the peephole seeing Keisha.
I grunted and opened the door.
"What's up?" I asked.
"Can we talk?" She asked.
"Make it quick I'm busy." I said letting her inside.
"You don't gotta be rude to me.." She said.
"What could you possibly want?" I asked her.
"I want you Da'Vion. I just messed up.. For real. I was just lost okay? I went through a lot in there and-"
"I feel bad and I'm sorry about that but you can't make that an excuse for being disloyal. None of that was my fault and I was trying to be there for you but you kept pushing me away. Over and over. I was tryna love you through it, but you couldn't love me the same way I loved you. And that's okay" I said shrugging.
"Now that's not fair you know I love you!" Keisha said.
"Until Big Sean got up in there." I said.
"You don't even know if we had sex or not." Keisha said folding her arms.
"Did y'all?" I asked.
She sighed and didn't answer.
"That's what I thought. It broke a nigga just thinking about another man's hands all over you.." I said shaking my head.
"Baby I know and I'm so sorry.." Keisha said.
"Baby?" I said.
"Yes you my baby.. Stop acting like that." Keisha said.
"Nah I'm single and so are you. Keisha I don't wanna be with you, I can't." I said.
"But-"
"I can't... Lay next to or be with someone who turned their back on me as soon as it got tough. You showed that when the game tests you, you gone fold. And I don't want a woman like that." I said.
She looked me up and down.
"Fuck you Bird." She said grabbing her purse off the couch.
"So now you mad because I'm telling you the truth? Keisha you caused this. Take responsibility of your actions" I said.
"Yeah whatever. Bye." She said walking out the door.
I shrugged and chuckled. Welp.

Roddy POV
"So how far are you?" I asked Doja.
"Just two weeks. And that's when we had sex." Doja said.
I sighed and said "Alright."
Two babies on the way by two different women. And I'm hurting one woman so bad in the process and it broke my heart for Jackie.
"What's wrong?" She asked me.
"You know we gotta get a DNA test." I said.
"When the baby is born?" She asked.
"Nah, once you hit 7 weeks." I said.
"I don't think you can-"
"Nah we can I looked it up. They gone swab you once you 7 weeks pregnant." I said.
I don't need nobody tryna trap me.
"But it's yours, you're the only one I smashed in the last two weeks." Doja said.
"I still would like to be sure." I said.
She sighed and said "Alright."

I pulled up to Jackie's house, because she texted me telling me to get some of my stuff.
We just decided I was gone move out for now, that's what she wants and I understand and I deserve it.
I rang the door bell and she came quickly and didn't even look at me. I walked inside the house shutting the door behind me.
"I packed some of your things already.." Jackie said as I followed her upstairs.
Once we got to the bedroom, I just looked at her. I can tell she been crying.
"Jackie I care-"
"You don't care about nothing but yourself Rodrick." She said.
"That's not true.." I said.
"Yeah okay." Jackie said rolling her eyes.
"And-" I got cut off by my phone ringing, it was an unknown number and I answered it putting it on speaker.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Aye Roddy it's me Jay" He said.
Jay is an old friend me, Jackie and Bird were acquainted with a while back before he got locked up.
"Wassup how you been?" I asked.
"I'm straight. But the homie just got jumped by these lil niggas, I wanted to handle them later. They threatening his family and mine, I need you to roll through." He said.
"Hmm. I got you, what time?" I asked, Jackie looked at me scrunching her eyebrows.
"8 tonight. Bird needa slide too." Jay said.
"I'll hit him up." I said.
"Bet, I'll scoop you later tonight or I can send you the addy. Whichever you prefer" He said.
"I'll slide and get Bird while I'm at it." I said.
"Say no more." He said, and we both hung up.
"I gotta get ready to leave tonight.. I'll come back and get the stuff later okay?" I said.
"You need some weapons or anything?" Jackie asked walking up to me.
"I got my pistol, I'm pretty sure them lil niggas ain't no threat at all." I said.
"So you just gone roll over there?" She asked.
"Wit Bird yeah." I said.
"Well if you need me to roll, I'm sliding. Period. You got I got the work." Jackie said looking up at me.
This woman here... She always been down. Always held it down.
I smiled looking down at her.
"Why are you grinning like the joker?" Jackie asked folding her arms.
"Because I know me and you still good as long as I see that fire in your eyes" I said looking her in her eyes and she broke eye contact with me.
"Rodrick.. What me and you had is done." She said rolling her eyes.
"Don't say that.." I said.
"Nah, you got another baby mama besides me now..." She said, then she looked away from me sighing.
Then she looked me back in my eyes and said "You ruined it.. Forever."
Then she walked out of her bedroom leaving me in there by myself and I sighed rubbing my face.
