Jayjay's pov
Damn even she didn't understand text. So I called her as well and unlike the others it took her a long time to reply.
"Hello?"
I could here a baby crying in the background.
"Jay"
"Uhm I don't know if it's appropriate to ask but can u meet me I need your help"
"Jay I can't meet you but if it's that-"
She got cut off my crying and she continued again.
"Ya as I was saying if it's really urgent come over and we can talk"
Shit I could but Denzel can't find out that gago might tell Keifer.
"Uhm... Is Denzel home?"
"Uh not yet does he-... Have to be present?"
"No! I mean he doesn't I'll come over"
Grace agreed and they lived nearby so I kept walking even tho my legs hurt like a bitch.
I knocked and I immediately felt stupid cause there's a BABY.
"It's open"
Grace yelled from inside.
I pushed the door open and got inside and I locked the door behind me. She looked like she had just showered cause her hair was damp honestly I thought mothers barely got time after postpartum but anyway I started speaking.
"Grace you know it's not safe to leave the door unlocked especially when Denzel isn't home"
"I know Jay... I know but I'm just so mad at him... He's pissing me off"
"What's wrong? Did you fight?"
"Well ya I'm just so frustrated at him...I get it he's stressed but why is he burying himself in so much work to cope? Like he needs to give time to be home with us cause I can't manage everything on my own"
"Grace... I get it's hard and ya your right he shouldn't be doing that but instead of fighting you guys should sit down and talk about it for the sake of grazel atleast."
I seemed to shifted something in her as she thought for sometime.
"I'm trying but he's not paying attention"
"Well talk to him today and set a date today like during the weekend to talk to him"
Grace nodded thoughtfully.
"Thanks Jay you've always been a lifesaver..."
"Well you guys are my friends so obviously and also do you need help with anything I'm willing to help"
"Well can u set the bottle temperature to like warm up the milk"
I nodded quicky before hurrying to do that. While doing that I couldn't stop myself from asking Grace.
"Is it hard to raise a baby so young?"
Grace raised an eyebrow before speaking.
"Well I guess kinda but why do you ask?... Planning to make your own?"
"Well ya but-"
WAIT WHAT WAS I SAYING
"I MEAN NO I SAID THAT MINDLESSLY...it's just that everyone keeps saying I'll get pregnant early... To the point it's annoying... Like do you even think that?"
I said letting my frustration out.
"Well listen I don't know keifer well enough to be the judge of that jay but I feel like your the responsible type so no not really"
Responsible my ass if she wknew what me and Keifer did she'd never look at me and Keifer the same way again. I glanced over to see grazel dozing off a little in her arms.
"Well thanks but if you don't mind me asking how was like other people's reactions to you guys"
"Well uhm it was annoying like really annoying like when he decided to stay for the baby everyone suddenly thought he was responsible for staying. But me? Everyone assumed I was a slur for spreading my legs? Like I didn't make it alone it was partially his fault but I was judged more"
Ouch I felt bad for grace imagine being blamed for something while the other person got off the hook.
It was so unfair for women...
