CHAPTER 69

  A week later

  I hang my bag on my back after hugging the three Js and saying our goodbyes. I walk out of the house being escorted by Mycole.

  “Promise you’ll take care of them,” I say as we step outside the house. “Like I never could?”

  “I promise.” he smiles widely before pulling me in for a bone-crushing, long hug. “Take care of yourself and little Reign in there.” He says, rubbing my still flat belly and I slap his hand away, blushing like crazy still. He gave the baby Reign because he saw her reigning. I didn’t contradict or battle words.

  I couldn’t be the girl mom wanted me to be for my younger brother if anything was ever to happen to her. I was a walking bomb, a disaster ready to be released. More than anything, I needed to be safe and fix myself and safely give birth to the little one in me, which would never happen if I stay here and kept remembering every of my misfortune.
