Chapter 113: His Son

MIA

HOURS EARLIER.......

"What do you think about red? Red is a beautiful color you know." Coco said as we fixed my bed together.

"Hmm it is but I think it is not mostly used by bridesmaids."

"Say what?"

I shrugged, fixing the pillow.

"I haven't seen bridesmaids wearing red," I said, placing the pillow close to the headboard.

"Uh, how many bridesmaids have you seen so far?"

I stood up straight and gave her a look.

She raised her brows.

"Really, Coco?"

"Yeah. Tell me. Cause it looks like you haven't seen many." she said, tucking that sheets in.

"That's mine, Jay Jay." Vicky took our attention.

She and Jay Jay are seated on the floor with their toys and dressed in their nightwear. Jay Jay is kinda dragging Vicky's cookie with her.

God, this little guy.

Coco chuckled.

"Okay, fine, you can have it." Vicky gave up, releasing the cookie for him gently.

He said things to her as he put it in his mouth.

"You have it already. Why are you being mean?" Vicky whined.

I chuckled.

"Aw," Coco said.

"Ignore him, Vicky. He is being naughty again." I said.

"Cute naughty," Coco chipped in.

I shook my head.

"Red is one of the options, Mia. You will love it."

I rolled my eyes, heaving a sigh.

"It will make the event colourful." She added.

"True but I don't think there will be bridesmaids. I don't have a lot of friends."

She opened her mouth to speak but....

"Plus, Big Kai hasn't talked about anything about the wedding lately," I said, flipping my hair behind my ear.

She scoffed. "You have his ring on your finger."

My heart reacted.

"He will start talking about it soon. That's not even a problem."

I looked at the ring as I recalled the day he gave it to me.

The beautiful way he gave it to me.

I loved it.

"The problem is you said you don't have a lot of friends," she said.

"Yeah, I don't. You, Jay Jay, and Caleb are the only friends I have. Caleb and Jay Jay can't be bridesmaids. You, on the other hand."

She smiled.

"Only you can't be the bridesmaids."

Her face twitched.

"Wait, I thought I was going to be your maid of honor."

I raised my brows, smiling.

Her shoulders fell.

"Who else will be?" she whined.

"Vicky," I said.

Her face twitched.

"Huh?!"

I chuckled, walking towards Vicky.

"Vicky?" Coco asked.

"Vicky, stand up please," I said.

"Okay," Vicky said, getting on her feet.

I placed my hand on her shoulders and looked at Coco.

"Vicky will be my maid of honor," I said, grinning.

Coco scoffed. "She is six."

I shrugged.

"Ugh, why?!" Coco whined, making me chuckle as she walked towards the bed and sat on it like a kid.

Dramatic much?

"What's a maid of honor, Mia?" Vicky asked. I looked at her.

She is looking up at me.

"I will tell you later okay?"

"Okay."

I kissed her hair and she moved back to Jay Jay. I walked towards Coco.

She folded her hands and pouted as I sat next to her.

"Okay, fine. You can be a maid of honor too."

She looked at me.

"Really?"

I chuckled. "You are so dramatic, Coco."

"No I am not."

"Yes, you are. I can have two maids of honor. I don't mind." I said, smiling.

"That will be great," she said, her face lighting up instantly.

I chuckled as Caleb came to my mind, killing my smile as I stared at a random place.

"What's wrong?" Coco asked.

I looked at her.

She is looking at me.

"What if Caleb comes back with a negative result?"

She stared at me.

I shrugged. "I would like that."

She placed her hand on mine.

"I know. But if it is negative, we will just move on. After all, he brought Jay Jay back because of you. He's not going to send him away."

I nodded. "I know he won't. But I kinda feel like there is a void in his heart that needs to be filled. That love he had for Jay Jay. That love is the  reason I am here, you know."

She nodded.

"He thought I kidnapped Jay Jay." I lowered my gaze. "He almost killed me for that."

"But he didn't."

I looked at her.

She nodded. "Instead he fell in love with you."

My heart fluttered.

She smiled at me.

I smiled slightly.

"Let's just hope it comes out positive."

I nodded.

"If it doesn't, it is still fine," she said.

"Yeah."

A knock on the door took our attention.

"Mia?" Caleb's voice called.

Coco and I shared a look.

"He is here," we said in unison.

We moved towards the door and I opened it, revealing Caleb dressed in his usual black suit and has his two hands in his pockets.

"Caleb."

"Babe," Coco called.

He is looking at us with a straight face.

"Hey, girls," he said.

My shoulders fell as my heart tightened.

"Are you with the result?" Coco asked.

Caleb nodded, lowering his gaze.

"And?" Coco asked.

He took his hand out from his pocket and reached for his inner jacket pocket. He took out a white envelope and handed it to me.

I looked at Coco and then at Caleb.

I braced myself to accept the truth. I collected the envelope and opened it.

I took out the result and I opened it.

I froze at the sight of the 99.99% match.

I looked at Caleb.

His lips formed into a smile.

My heart danced for joy as I stared at the paper happily.

"What does it say?" Coco asked, moving closer to me and staring at the paper.

I let her hold it as I felt happy tears filling my eyes.

Her face twitched as she read it.

"It is a match. They are a match," she said, looking at me.

I nodded, letting out a laugh.

"Oh thank God!" She wrapped me in a hug.

I held her as well.

"This is great news!" she squealed as we unwrapped each other.

"It is!"

"Lil Kai is back," Caleb said.

We looked at him.

My heart melted at the name.

"Yes. Lil Kai is back. God, I can't wait to tell Big Kai."

"I can't wait either but he is not in at the moment," Caleb said.

I furrowed my brows.

"He had to take care of this. But he will be back soon and he has something for you."

"For me?" I asked, smiling.

"Yeah. He wants you to wait up for him."

I looked at Coco with a smile.

She is smiling at me.

I returned my gaze to Caleb.

"That's a good opportunity to tell him." He said.

I nodded. "I am going to wait up. I doubt if I will even sleep tonight."

"You shouldn't," Coco said, making us chuckle.

"Well, let's just be patient. Soon, we will break the news." Caleb said.

I wish soon would come right away.

I really can't wait!

I have to.

Ugh!

MINUTES LATER......

"I don't get it, Coco," I said as I placed sleeping Jay Jay in his crib gently.

I stood up straight and looked at Coco who was helping me tuck Vicky in bed. She looked at me.

"Why would Imani lie about this?"

She covered Vicky properly and stood up straight.

"What else? The usual. Always getting rid of the women around him and the things connected to the women." she said.

I scoffed in disbelief. "Big Kai didn't marry Jay Jay's mom. Why would she take it on on innocent Jay Jay?"

"You think she didn't take it on Isadora?" she asked.

I stared at her.

"Her fake news made the boss kill Isadora. Imani knew he would react like that. That was her plan all this time. She planned everything perfectly." she said, rubbing my arms and looking away as I recalled her discussion with Naomi in a corner a long time ago.

Good God.

"She is dangerous. Sometimes I get scared for you."

I looked at her.

She is staring at me with a slight worry on her face.

"For me?"

She nodded. "She hates it when women are around the boss. I still believe she has feelings for him. I fear she might want to harm you too."

I scoffed. "I am not afraid of her."

She raised her brows.

"I was. But not anymore."

"Well, um, that is good. Ish. But you still have to be careful with her. Watch your back always cause no one can see Imani coming."

I heaved a sigh, looking away.

Coco's phone beeped, taking my attention.

She took it out and stared at it.

She looked at it.

"It's Caleb. He said you should come out now. The boss is here."

I felt the weight of worry lifted as joy filled my heart.

I happily moved to the mirror and stared at myself in my black pajamas.

"You look great, Mia. Now hurry." Coco urged, opening the door for me.

I smiled. "Thank you."

I headed towards the door and out of the room.

I walked along the hallway as my heart and lips begged to blurt out.

I got to the stairs.

There he was, seated on his couch. He looks breathing in his black shirt with three buttons open and his sexy braids.

I felt the result in my pocket with my hand, adding to my excitement.

I descended the stairs instantly and he looked my way.

I smiled at him as I walked towards him.

His eyes were glued to me as I went closer.

He extended his hand to me.

I placed my hand on his and sat on his lap.

His enticing scent filled my nose as my heart danced to his hands on me.

"Hmm, you smell nice, baby."

I chuckled. "Thank you."

"I got you these." he gestured at the things next to us.

I saw a lot of gifts.

I covered my mouth with my hands, staring at the things.

"Oh my God," I got on my feet and stood in front of the stool.

I picked up that one thing my eyes caught.

"A phone?" I asked, looking at him.

"You like it?"

My heart danced happily!

"I love it."

"It's yours."

Gosh, finally I have a phone.

A bigger phone.

Caleb didn't tell me he had these things for me.  I picked up the lilies and sniffed them. I closed my eyes to the amazing scent.

I looked at Big Kai.

"I love them. Thank you." I said, leaning closer to him. I kissed his lips softly.

God, I should tell him now.

"I also have a gift for you," I said, smiling.

He furrowed his brows.

"Really?"

"Yeah."

I looked at Caleb. He gave me a nod.

Here goes.

I placed the things back and took out the result from my pocket.

I handed it to him.

He didn't take it but stared at the paper and then at me.

"Go on," I urged, smiling.

He took the paper from me.

I moved the strands of my hair behind my ears excitedly as he attempted to open the result.

Next, the entrance door opened, taking our attention.

Imani and Naomi walked in.

My heart picked up.

I scoffed internally.

Seriously? Right now? I thought she would be in her room by now sleeping.

What the....

"What is going on here?" Imani asked.

Nah. I am revealing this.

"Please open your gift, Big Kai," I said, making him look at me.

I nodded at him.

He opened it.

"What is this?" he asked, looking at me.

I opened my mouth to speak but ....

"A DNA test result." Caleb chipped in.

"What?" Imani blurted. "What the fuck did you just say, Caleb?

I rested my eyes on Big Kai. He is staring at the result.

"Jay Jay is your son."

He looked at me.

I nodded, smiling at him.

"He is your baby," I added.

Next, Imani snatched the result from him and ripped it off.

I froze.

"Hey!" Caleb yelled.

"What are you doing?!" I blurted.

She kept ripping the paper.

What is wrong with her?!

"What have you done?!" I yelled.

"Shut your mouth, you fucking bitch! How dare you?!" she yelled.

"Imani!"

I flinched at the sound of Big Kai's loud voice.

They both glared at each other.

Big Kai looks angrier.

"Did you fucking lie to me?" He snarled.

Imani didn't respond but looked my way.

With a glare.

I held her gaze.

"Imani!" Big Kai yelled again.

"What?!" She snapped at him, catching me off guard. I shared a look with Caleb.

God, she is crazy.

"That brat is not your son!" She yelled.

"Of course he is." My words worked faster.

She glared at me.

"You gave him a fake test result. We did another and it came out positive. Jay Jay and Big Kai are a 99.99% match."

Her jaw tightened as she glared at me.

"You meddling slut. How dare you do what you fucking did?!" she yelled.

"You...." I trailed off the minute Big Kai stormed towards her and gripped her next with his two hands.

My heart pounded as they both glared at each other.

I shared a worried look with Caleb.

"I'm gonna fucking kill you, Imani." Big Kai snarled.

"You ain't gonna do shit." she snarled as well.

She is not even remorseful.

"That brat is not yours and he will never be!"

I furrowed my brows, stunned at her words.

"Ugh!" Big Kai groaned, hitting her face with his backhand.

She whimpered, taking steps back.

He took out his gun instantly. My heart dropped as he clocked his gun and aimed it at her.

"Big Kai," I called.

"No!" I heard Caleb's protest.

Big Kai fired.

I covered my face with my palms as the place stilled.

I lowered my palms slowly.
