with complete sincerity and commitment.
My mother scold me when came from work and I decided to tell her that I had Ace around Miguel my mother basically lost it
She didn't want to hear anything no excuses no anything she just wanted me to understand how dangerous it was
"Mom it wasn't planned I-" she cut me off with waving her hand shaking her head
"It wasn't plan but you had that man YOU barely even know sleep under the same roof as your 4 year old son anything could of happened Camila and YOU weren't thinking" she said looking at me
I nodded looking at Miguel play with his toys "You're right mom but I haven't seen the idiot in a month so it doesn't matter anymore" she scoffed and mocked my words
"it doesn't matter- you- you just don't learn do you?" she said I shake my head looking down
"I'm sorry" I said tearing up
"don't apologize to me apologize your son he could of been put in a situation i'm not even sure you'd be able to take him out of" she said sitting down next to me rubbing my back
I sigh sitting up straight "I have to go shopping for Miguel and get him prepared for tomorrow" my mother nodded leaving my side
"come on papa tell mema bye" I called out for him as I hug my mom and kiss her cheek
Miguel ran into the living room doing so making sure he cleaned up after himself he came to me to the front door
"be safe I love you" my mom said waving us off
"you too mom I love you more" I walked off to my car putting Miguel in the car I made sure he was okay and we pulled off
"but that's what i'm talking about Cam i'm not sure if I want a gender reveal or not" Taylor spoke on the other end of the phone
"I think you should do it but it's actually kinda hard to find things for Miguel he's picky with his outfits" I said pulling out a shirt showing Miguel he shook his head pointing to a different shirt
"You see i'm not ready for that at all" she said laughing on the other end of the phone
"and if you have a girl i'll pray for you, Miguel is hard enough" I said whispering the last part eyeing Miguel
He ran over to me "mommy can I get some gum please" he looked up at me pointing to the gum ball machine
"heck no Miguel" I said pulling the phone away from my ear he pouted
"here talk to titi Taylor" I said holding his hand and giving him the phone
Miguel was just going on and on about a show on Cartoon Network Chowder
Pulling out more outfits for Miguel big day tomorrow I smile when he handed me the phone
"I'm so tired Miguel has way too much energy" Taylor said through the phone making me laugh
"I got to go though Tay i'll talk to you later" I said holding Miguel hand walking to the register
"be safe love you" she said
"you too love you more" I ended the call putting my phone away
"ew mommy I don't want this shirt" Miguel started to whine as we stood in the line
"Miguel it's too late we're already in the line you should of paid attention when I told you to" I said moving up a little bit he looked at me with a pouting face
he looks so much like Teo
'no crap that's his father shut up' I told myself pulling Miguel to the register handing the lady my stuff
"87.34"
the lady said taking the ink pins off the pants I brought Miguel digging in my bag to get my card Miguel yarned
Handing my hard to the lady as Miguel hugged my thigh "Thank you" I said to the lady grabbing the bag
"come on papa" I squat down to pick him up and grunt "oh man we got to put the ice cream down" I said as he laughed
walking out of the mall I started to feel unsafe again I held Miguel tighter trying not to drop my bag
"hey beautiful what's your name" one of the dudes with a cigarette called
Move faster Camila
I sped pass them "hold on ma dang" another dude said
the first guy started laughing "damn man she got a kid"
"don't matter how you doing ma?" the second guy said walking behind me as I continued my pace making sure I don't walk directly to my car
"She good and I advice y'all to fall back" I heard a familiar voice making let out a breath
"That's yours?" the first guy questioned"
"you got a problem with it?" the voice said deeply
"nah man you got it" I turned to see the men backing away
Ant grabbed my bags making me instantly throw my free arm around Miguel
"Camila" Ant called after me
I looked back at him
"yes" I bit the inside of my cheek facing forward walking the right direction to my car now
"you okay?" he asked following behind me I nodded my head like a crazy person unlocking my car door
he put the bags next to sleeping Miguel and closed the door as I strapped Miguel up closing his side of the door I stood up straight looking at Ant
"Ant" I barely whispered he looked down at me
"what's up Cam" he moved closer
"did you tell Miguel that you were his father?" I said slowly
Ant looked at me and swallowed looking away
"Did you tell Miguel th-"
"No" he said looking everywhere but me
"why are you lying Ant why would you even tell him something like that you-"
"Camila trust me I showed him a picture of me and Mateo" Ant said looking down at me
"he has never said anything before about wanting daddy why would you even- why?" I felt a lump in my throat
"I didn't know the kid was going to give you a hard time and I thought it was time for him to know who his father was in the first place" Ant blinked a few times then looked away again
"I wanted to tell him when I felt he was ready" I said tearing up
"why are you crying Camila?" Ant asked dryly
"because I wasn't ready he wasn't ready he's not even old enough to tie his own shoe I wanted to tell him later on-"
"you ain't think he would question it now?"
"No" I rolled my eyes
"he's a smart kid Camila he might not talk about it but he knows" Ant said looking in the car
I chuckled nodding Ant pulled me into a hug hugging him back we stood there for 2 minutes in a hug
he pulled back kissing my forehead
then my nose
and he hesitated on kissing my lips

Ant kissed my lips gently licking my bottom lip for entrance I gave it to him

I stopped and jerked myself back
"I'm sorry I- I have to go" I said getting in the car and pulling off
