Chapter 3

Me and the kids been doing just fine by ourselves. Damien had finally stop calling me like he was crazy. He came by last weekend and got the kids. They told me all about his new apartment. They was excited. My boys was sad that their dad wasn't in the house with us but they was getting use to the idea. We was all in the living room watching tv. My phone rang. I saw it was Kita. 

"Hello." i answered. 

"let's go to the mall." She said. I really didn't wanna go anywhere but I had been in the house with the kids for months. It had been a minute since our ladies night. 

"Alright!  I'll see if the kids daddy will get them for a few ours!" I told her. I called Damien and he was happy to get them. He was doing any and everything to keep me happy. I actually loved the new him. He had spent more time with the kids these last couple months then he had in all the time we been together. I couldn't even lie I kind of missed him at home. I told him I would drop them off on my way to the mall.

 When i made it to his door, i called him and let him know that i was outside. By the time we made it up to his apartment, he had the door open and was waiting by it. I had to admit, he was looking good. He always was a looker. That was the problem. He knew he looked good. Had the nerves to have his chest out. I was almost tempted to stay there with them. 

"Here's the kids." I said As i turned around and started to walk away. 

"Wait, Shunshine." He said as he looked me up and down. I had lost a little bit of weight so i knew i was looking good. My personal trainer had me on a strict diet. I was following it to the tee. He looked like he wanted to eat me alive.  

"Baby can we just talk. This has gone on long enough. I told you that girl wasn't pregnant. I haven't even talk to her since the day that's she called. Baby just give me another chance. I can't even sleep without you. What you want me to do? I'll do anything to be with you and the kids."

I looked at him and instantly got mad. How dare he talk to me about this in front of the kids. I politely put my daughter down. The boys looked at me with questions in their eyes. I didn't even say anything. I just walked out the door. To hell with him. He should've thought about me and the kids when he was out sticking his dick in everything. Now he want us. Where was this Damien when i was at home crying because my husband wasn't home? Where was he at when i had a  long day?  Did he not understand that this was hurting me to? Even thought i didn't want him, i was still in love with him. 

 

Me and Kita spent all day at the mall. We shopped until we dropped. Shared a couple slurpees and shopped some more. She tried to get me to talk about Damien but i was not in the mood for that. She understood. After shopping, we decided to eat in the food court. As we sat at the table, i noticed a light skin dude looking at me. 

"Kita, you see dude at the table behind us? He keep staring over here." I said self consciously. I took another look and he smiled. 

"Girl, if he look good, walk over there and get his number. It's about time you get out and date. It's been months since you left your husband. I know your kitty dying for some attention other then your fingers." She said as she sneaked a peek. 

"Girl, he fine as fuck. What the hell you waiting on." She whispered. 

I took another looked. Damn, he was good looking. Very muscular and tall. Had a mouth full of gold. Just like i like them. With a look that scream thuggish. I was basically salivating at the mouth. I tried to take another look. When i looked up, he was walking towards our table. I got nervous. 

My palms was sweating as he approached the table. 

"Hey." My name Micheal and i couldn't help but come over here and say some to you. Can i have your name and number to call you sometime?" He said. 

I was not ready for that. I was still getting use to the idea of being alone. I still need to heal. 

"My name Shunshine. I'm not really interested in getting to know anyone right now." I said. 

"Can't blame a brother for trying." He replied back with a smile. I almost gave in. He hand me a business call and told me to call him if i change my mind. i looked at the card and saw that he was a mr. fix it man. He fixed on houses and appliances. 

Kita looked at me and rolled her eyes. "Girl you might have let your future walked away. You gave that wack ass Damien a change. That man was too damn fine to turn down. If i wasn't married, I'll call his ass. I'm tempted to call him for you." She said with a shake of her head. 

"Girl bye. I don't need another man. I need my kids. And Hoe don't worry bout my kitty. I got enough toys to keep her satisfied. " i said with a laugh. We got up to walk to our cars. 

As i drove home, i thought about Micheal. Could i really be letting Damien keep me from being happy. I don't know but i knew one think Micheal had a smile that will melt your panties off. Damn, he was fine!
