I almost laughed at their faces when I told them in a calm voice that Tianya and Kylynn had beaten the shit out of the two biggest gang leaders in town.  It was partially true.  We had been out wandering around town one day when a group of guys started bothering us.  We ignored them, but they didn’t get the hint.  They followed us for a few blocks; just as Tianya and Kylynn were going to turn around and ask them what the fuck their problem was, another group of guys appeared, and that's when shit went down.  It turned out that they were rival gangs, and the one was partially coming to make them leave us alone and ask them why they were on their turf.  I was terrified, but Tianya and Kylynn stood there staring at all guys as if they were bored.  They probably were.  I knew a fight between the two groups was imminent, and I was pulling on their arms to get us out of there.  Of course, that didn’t

There was a shit ton of nervous energy in this room.  Alayni and Travis had landed earlier than they thought they would.  They got into Savannah at around midnight.  Everly had woken up to Alayni’s group text, letting everyone know that they had arrived and the meeting would still take place around noon.  Of course, Tianya responded by telling all the girls they needed to meet her and Kylynn for breakfast.  I was hesitant to let Everly out of my site, but I also didn’t want the lecture from Tianya and Kylynn I knew I would get if I didn’t let Everly go.  I dropped Everly off at the restaurant that Kylynn had chosen.  Us men decided to meet for breakfast as well.  Gio told us about this new place, so that is where we met.  I sat down beside Lance as Alek introduced me to everyone else.“This is Rondell.”  Travis said.

I knew that Kaden was anxious about that meeting between Arthur, the lawyer and the mystery person.  Kaden and Lance had to fly out today for the meeting in Boston.  They weren’t due to leave until Tuesday, but the meeting had to be pushed up.  The whole North East was expecting a terrible winter storm, and Kaden and Lance didn’t want to get stuck up in Boston for who knows how long.  They are due back Saturday.  The storm is expected to hit Sunday, so they wanted to make sure they left before it rolled in.  I am currently over at Mark and Claire’s.  I didn’t want to stay in the apartment alone, and Gio had to fly home.  He had a family emergency, and that would have left me alone in the apartment.  Claire told me to come to stay with them until Kaden got back, and I was more than happy to do that.  Claire and I were planning my baby shower. I told her that I really didn’t

We met with Arthur two days ago, and I am still processing what he told us.  I was expecting the mystery person to be one of moms relatives, but I was not expecting it to be my grandmother and one of my aunts.  Ironically the two mystery people that showed up with the lawyer are the same to that randomly showed up that day at mom and dads and made a huge scene.  I am not sure what to think.  I looked at mom, and she didn’t seem surprised at all.  Everly and dad were on the way to the airport to pick up Gio.  He finally got everything straightened out with his family.  He said that his dad is doing good and should be getting out of the hospital in a couple more days.  They wanted to make sure there were no other clots anywhere before they sent him home. “How are you holding up?”  Brent asks.&l

Two more months is all I have left.  Thank god, I am over being pregnant.  I love my son and feel him move around, but my back is killing me.  My feet hurt, and I feel like an overfilled water balloon.  I am getting very worried that if he grows any more that I won’t be able to have him naturally.  Aunt Lisa told me at my monthly appointment that everything was looking good.  From her estimates, she says that he is 7lbs, maybe even a bit over that right now.  Of course, that pushed me into overthinking mode.  I shudder when I realize that if he gains a pound or more a month until I give birth, he could weigh 9lbs or more.  There is no way I can push that out of my body.  I can feel the panic attack starting.“Ok, you need to calm down.  Everything is going to be fine.”  Claire says.&
