"What about your friends? Will they stand their grounds? Will they let you down?" Monse danced in the mirror while she was curling her hair. She was done with Javon, they hadn't talk to each other in two months. She didn't want to be with him anymore.
She stayed at Tee's house while he stayed in the house that he bought and she furnished. He was there all alone just him and his thoughts. The only time they conversed was at the doctors office and they barely talked them.
London was done chasing Monse, he realized that she really didn't want to be with him. It was Saturday and the day of Nia's baby shower. She knew she would have to see London's face but she knew how to ignore him. She slicked her edges and put some lipgloss on. "You bout ready?" Tee asked peeking in the door. "Yeah." she said. She picked up the gift and her purse. A Prada one, she hasn't worn the Birkin yet.
Monse slid her feet in some slides and grabbed her phone and the two left. "Girl when are you gonna get back with Von?" she said. "When I feel like he learned his lesson." she shrugged. She didn't want to get back with him but she didn't see herself with nobody other than him.
Arriving at the building Monse got out of the car seeing a lot of cars parked. "Goodness." she mumbled pulling her dress up. She had on a white sundress that
stopped mid thigh. Taking the gift bag out the backseat, her and Tee walked to the front door. A smile plastered across her face as she hugged Nia and handed her the gift. "7 whole months." she rubbed Nia's stomach.
Monse didn't understand how she made it these three, her emotions were all over the place, she was always tired and hungry.
"Girl I'm so ready for her to get out of here ugh." she laughed giving Tee a hug and accepting the gift. In the corner of her eyes Monse spotted London eating food off a plate like he never ate before. He didn't see her until he turned around. She looked at the ground before he could look at her.
"Where's the father?" she asked not paying him any attention. "Girl he over there." she pointed to the thrones that they were supposed to sit in. Monse began walking over to Nard when London purposely bumped her. He didn't say excuse me he just kept walking. She rolled her eyes at him and went to give Nard a hug. "How you been?" he asked. Being that they have barely heard from Monse in 3 months.
"I'm good, working on myself. I graduate in 2 months, then I'm moving."
"Moving where?" he asked. Monse had been saving money up to move out of the state when she graduated. "Houston." she shrugged scratching her arm. "Do what's best for you then." he nodded. She laughed walking to the table Kianna was sitting at eating. London was sitting in front of her.
"Don't talk to me now because the only time you be trynna talk to me is at school." she dodged the hug making Monse laugh. "Ouu it's meatballs." she gasped taking one off her plate. "Get ya baby mama I'm bout to tear her ass up." Kianna warned jokingly.
"Monse come talk to me." he stood up. "No."
"Bring you ass out here, I ain't fucking ask." he barked making her jump. Kianna eyes got wide as she looked away with her "you heard him" face. Monse sighed following Javon out back where no one was. He held her hand holding the door open for her.
Monse looked up at him with glossy eyes biting her lip. "I miss you." she mumbled. "I missed you too. Why you acting like that towards me?"
"Because you cheated on me Javon."
"Monse that was three months ago." he said. Monse examined his face seeing her middle name above his eyebrow. She didn't think he was serious about the tattoo but he actually went and got it. A few weeks ago at that. "Maybe I'm not over it." she crossed her arms.
"I begged you over and over, I'm not doing it anymore. I'm not about to keep chasing you." he said grabbing her arm pulling her body towards his. "I wanna be with you." she replied. "I wanna be with you too. I want you in OUR house."
"Ok." she nodded slowly not looking at him. He bit his lip lifting her face up placing a kiss on her glossy lips. He didn't bother to wipe the lipgloss off of his lips. Javon felt like the man since he got his girl back. Even though it took him three months, he was going to do right by her and he meant it. He walked back in the building with the biggest smile on his face, Monse and him hand in hand.
Nard was shaking his head at them as Von shot him a quick middle finger.
Everyone was seated as Nia and Nard started opening gifts. Monse was anxious for them to see what she bought for their daughter. She had fun shopping, being that she was ready to shop for her baby.
She still hasn't talked to her parent, or told them she was pregnant. She didn't care to either, a phone worked both way and if he father wanted to contact her he could. He stopped giving her money but she didn't care. Of all the years he's gave her thousands of dollars it's all been saved up and Monse is still saving.
"Open that." she blurted out making everybody look at her. Monse was tired of watching them open other people's gift it was time for hers. Nia chuckled grabbing the bag. Monse had bought the baby Chanel outfits and shoes. Diaper, pacifier, and last but not least, a small diamond necklace that read CHANEL.
That was the name of the baby, Nia wanted it so bad. Chanel Renee Wheat. Renard wanted the baby's middle name to be Renard but Nia made a big deal about it throwing the name off so he said to name her Renee.
"Aww Monse." she looked at the tiny clothes. Monse smiled hard as Nia took the outfits out of the bag one by one.

"Why you running from me?" KoKo asked Aliyah as he followed her down the street. "Kody leave me alone please." she begged as she walked further. Aliyah had found her a small 1 bedroom apartment in Atlanta, she decided not to move out of Atlanta. She was at a corner store buying some snacks and she ran into KoKo, she dropped all her snacks and left.
"You don't love me?" he asked grabbing her by her hair as soon as he caught up with her. Little did he know Javon was creeping behind a dumpster watching them. "Let me go." she tried to pry his hands off of her.
"You told them that I snitched?" he growled throwing her on the ground. He began beating her like she was a nigga in the street. She cried and cried until finally two shots were fired.
Javon stayed where he was knowing that if he moved Aliyah would see him and probably snitch. "AHHHHHH, SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASEEEE!" she screamed to the top of her lungs as KoKo's now lifeless body laid on top of her. His blood was leaking all over her sky blue outfit.
"KoKo get up." she tapped him. He was unresponsive, her cries became more and more louder as she heard faint police sirens. Javon crept along going around a building to make it seem like he just walked out of a house. "Liyah? Is that you?" he walked over to her.
"Von please help me. He has to go to the hospital." she grabbed his pants trying to get herself off the ground. Her body was still weak from being beaten by him. "Let me go." he pushed her hands off of him.
"He look mighty fucking dead to me." he laughed. "Get yo ass up and go home you know 12 gone be here soon." he said to her. She nodded brushing herself off before she took of running.
This is her first time seeing him again since he got shot, she was the one who gave KoKo the ride to his house. KoKo never knew his address until Aliyah said something about it. KoKo was still mad at Von from pistol whipping him over some racks. But now it's just one person stopping Javon from being on top.
Messiah Kelly.
London thought about it all the time, how he would feel if he was the one that killed his father. Or how Nard would feel, or how Kianna and his mom would feel. His mom would never speak to him again and she is his everything.
Though Candice didn't have any feelings toward Messiah, he knew that she would still be hurt that her son killed his father. Javon had to plan away to off him without his mom knowing. And he was going to do it by himself. He walked down to his car getting in and speeding off.
they had to get back together🥴🥴
