Part 6 Adrianna, Brian and Stefan
Stefan and I cuddled together and just enjoyed each other's presence and time while we had it. He made me something to eat and feed me chocolate covered strawberries. He made me feel like I was a queen up until it was time for him to go to work. Once he got dressed I got up and walked him to the door. We opened the door and Stefan stepped out onto the porch and we kissed. As Stefan’s back faced the street I opened my eyes as we kissed and I noticed Brian sitting outside my house again. He rolled down his window and I saw the look on his face. He stuck his gun out the window and I screamed no.
Stefan jumped and looked at me and then turned to look behind him.”you okay?” he asked I grabbed his face and pull him back in to kiss again. As Stefan’s eyes closed again I spun us around so it was my back facing the street. I heard Brian's car pull off. When we ended our kiss I let out a sigh of relief.
I watched as Stefan walked to the car and pulled off. I blew him a kiss and went back into the house. I could hear my phone going off in my bedroom. I went and got it. It was Brian calling. “Why were you outside my house again?” I asked as soon as I answered. “Why are you playing with me! Do you know what I am capable of doing?” he asked me. “Brian I am a married woman!” I yelled into the phone. “You are my woman,” he said to me. “You are crazy.” I said to him. “You haven't seen shit yet. Keep playing with me and I’m a show you better than I can tell you.” Brian said to me. “I'm hanging up because you're not about to keep threatening me.” I told him. Brian was about to say something and I hung up.
Brian called me back immediately. I declined the call. But he called right back. He called again and this time I called and put him on do not disturb. Brian sent me a text and I didn’t even bother to read it. Instead, I picked up my phone and called Tisha. “Hey boo” she answered real cheerfully by the third ring. “Hey what are you doing?” I answered. “Nothing at home bored.” she said. “Well come over, let's have a drink. I miss you.” I said to her. “Say less I am on the way,” she said super excited.
By the time Tisha got to my house, I had already opened a bottle of wine and was basically through my first glass. I opened the door for her and hugged her and went into the living room and got on the couch. Tisha came into the living room looking at me strangely. “When you called me over I thought we were going to be having fun not drinking like two depressed women.” she said. “I'm not depressed, I'm just stressing.” I said to her. “What's going on?” she said as she took a seat.
“Girl I done got myself in some sht.” I said to her. “Well bitch let me pour up for this tea.” she said as she filled the glass I had waiting on the table for her. I hesitated on if I wanted to tell Tisha or not. It was one thing to have secrets but it was another thing to tell someone else and then have to trust that they won’t tell them. “Tisha what I'm about to tell you, you can’t tell nobody.” I said “girl who I’m telling you is my only friend.” she said. “Your man,” I said side-eyeing her. “Girl fuck him. He better hope I let him in the house tonight.” she said. “What the fuck is going on with that?” I asked her. “Same shit different day. But back to you.” she said.
“I might be pregnant,” I said to her. “I'm a be a godmother?” Tisha said, all excited. “Well, I don’t know if I am or not. Stefan pointed out to me today that I’ve missed my period twice and that my behavior has been off.” I told her. “Well shit what are you waiting for let's find out,” she said looking at me. “I'm a wait to tomorrow and go to the store and get a test and see. Tisha looked in her purse and pulled out a pregnancy test and put it on the coffee table. “No better time than now,” she said looking me in the eyes. I looked at her and then the test. “Why are you walking around with a pregnancy test in your purse?” I asked her. “Shit I had a scare and was pissing on one of these for a week straight at work.” then one just happened to be lifted over,” she told me. I looked at her again and then back at the test. The more you look at it ain't gonna change nothing. Let's end the guessing games and just find out.” she said.
I got up from the couch and grabbed the test and my drink off the table. I went to the bathroom and Trisha followed behind me. I sat my drink on the counter of the sink and then opened the test. “It's a clearblue test so all you gotta do is pee on it and it will say pregnant or not pregnant in like 10 to 15 minutes.” Tisha said.
I closed the bathroom door. took a deep breath and then another sip of my drink. I opened the test, pulled down my pants and sat on the toilet, and pee on the test. When I was done I got myself together, washed my hand, sat the test on a paper towel on the sink, and then opened the bathroom door for Tisha to come in.
We sat on the bathroom floor waiting and this seemed like the longest ten minutes of my life. This was like the mental abuse you go through when waiting on the test results from your STD test. When the turner on my phone went off Tisha looked at me. “You ready?” she asked me. No, I shook my head. Tisha grabbed my hand. “Listen no matter what the test says everything will be alright, you got a husband that loves and you know I'm always here rocking with you until the wheels fall off. I still was stuck. “Want me to look for you,” she asked. “Yeah,” I said with my voice cracking.
Tisha stood at the sink quote for a moment and then finally looked at me and smiled. “Well girl… It looks like you're going to be a mommy.” she said cheerfully. My head dropped and I started to cry. “Wait what's wrong Adrianna? Having a baby isn’t that bad.” she said to me. “In this case it is.” I told her. “What do you mean? Because you and Stefan aren’t exactly where y'all want to be right now? It's okay y'all can still make shit happen with a baby believe me. Plus I know Stefan is going to love being a daddy. He loved you and he will love anything y'all created together” she said to me. “And what if the baby is not his.” I said to her.
Tisha took a seat on the floor. “What are you talking about Adrianna?” she said in a real serious voice. “I’ve been…. I've been…” ‘you been what?” Tisha asked. “I've been cheating on Stefan and this baby could be his or Briain’s,” I said to her. Tisha slapped me. I turned back and looked at her as I held my face. “Have you lost your damn mind?” I asked her. “That's the same thing I'm wondering about you. You got a good man. One that most of us out here praying for. This man loves you down to your dirty draws, he works, he cooks when he's home, he never gave you a reason to think he was cheating and has no baby momma. And you cheat on him.” Tisha said. “I wasn’t happy. But I know now I was wrong.” I cried out. “You weren't happy? You weren't happy? Are you serious Adriana that some shit you talk through with your man and give him the chance to make right; you don’t just step out on him. And now want to cry you were wrong. You knew you were wrong from the wrong. But wrong felt good so you did it anyway.” she told me. “You're supposed to be my friend,” I told her “i am your friend, and because I'm your friend I am telling you you are dead ass wrong. I've been in Stefan's shoes. I know how it feels to find out you've been cheated on. I know how that breaks and crushes everything in you. I know how hard it is to have to decide to love the person that hurt you still or to walk away.” she said to me as a tear ran down her face. “But I'm sorry,” I said to her. “Don't tell me your sorry. You need to tell Stefan that, and you better come correct when you do it or you gonna lose a good man and it's gonna be all your fault,” she said as she wiped her face and stood up.
“Where are you going?” I asked as I followed her. “I'm getting my stuff and Im getting out of here. I don't want to be a part of this. I can’t even believe I now know this.” she said to me. “You're already apart.” I said to her. “No, I'm not.” she said back as she walked into the living room. “Yes you are because Stefan thinks I was with you last night and stayed at your house, but I was really with Brian.” I told her.
Tisha walked up to me and I thought she was going to slap me again so I prepared myself and got my hand ready to slap her back. “So now everyone has to be a part of your shit.” she said to me as she looked me in my eyes. “It was the first thing that came to mind.” I said to her. Tisha shook her head. “You better figure this shit out because if your man comes questioning me about your shit I’m telling him the truth.” she said and then walked to the door. I followed behind her Tisha opened the door, walked out of it, and slammed it behind her. I went back into the living room and looked at my phone. There were tons of calls and texts from Brian i threw my phone at the wall and landed on the floor showing a crack that went right between Stefan and I in the picture I had on my wallpaper.
Stefan jumped and looked at me and then turned to look behind him.”you okay?” he asked I grabbed his face and pull him back in to kiss again. As Stefan’s eyes closed again I spun us around so it was my back facing the street. I heard Brian's car pull off. When we ended our kiss I let out a sigh of relief.
