Nalani sat at the kitchen table in the house she shared with Sinclair, a bowl of yogurt, granola, strawberries, and a drizzle of honey in front of her.

With each bite of her parfait it seemed like she drifted further and further off into her thoughts. She pondered on if she would be making the right decision if she broke up with Sinclair.

To help her decide, Kyzion suggested she make a pros and cons list in all aspects of their relationship, as well as his characteristic traits. So far, Sinclair weighed equally on each side.

She hadn't even realized any of the bad things about him because she was so caught up in seeing the good that he did for her. He really did try, but she wasn't sure if it was enough.

Nalani had been with Sinclair since she was 17, and she was now 23. That was six years, and most of that time was good-but ever since he'd became 'famous', things had started to quickly go downhill. The only thing keeping them as close as they were was their daughter, Skye.

Skye would be four in a few months, and she was the best thing that had ever happened to Nalani. Her baby meant everything to her, and that was the main reason she didn't regret being with Sinclair.

She figured the reason she hadn't broken up with him yet was because she was so used to him. All she knew was him, and up until now, she really hadn't known what it was that she actually deserved.

To her, what she was worth went out the window the first time she'd caught him cheating. He'd only been caught twice, but she was sure there were more. The fact that he didn't reassure her worries was enough to make her believe he was still 'doing him'.

But now, she was falling in love with herself again. She'd recently been spending more time alone in their relationship than she had with him at her side, and she was realizing that she didn't need him as much as she thought she did.

"Why you up so early baby?" Sinclair's raspy voice snapped her from her thoughts, leaning down to kiss the side of her face.

"Waiting for you to get up. We need to talk Sin." She pushed her empty bowl to the side, and his eyebrows furrowed.

"Talk about what? You okay?" He sat beside her, turning her chair so that she faced him.

"No, I'm not. And you don't have to pretend that you care if I am or if I'm not, because I know that you don't." She played with her hands, and his frown deepened, being cut off before he could even disagree with her.

"You can say that you do all you want, but from the way you act-I really can't believe anything you say. Actions speak louder than words, you know?" She briefly paused, chuckling at the cliché phrase.

"You breaking up with me Nalani?" He sensed where this was going, the frown remaining on his face.

"Yeah, I am." She wiped her eye just as a tear fell, and when more of them followed, she covered her face.

"Don't do that baby. Come here." He wrapped his arms around her, and her cries became audible as she held around his neck, being placed in his lap.

"You don't love me how you used to Sinclair. You can't even satisfy me by pretending that you do. And I never fucking did anything to you to deserve that shit. All I've ever been was good to you and you make me feel like that shit still ain't enough." She spoke through her cries, feeling him lay his head on her shoulder.

"Yes I do. Don't say that Nalani. I love you more than anything else, you know that. You all I got."

"So why don't you act like it? What do I have to do Sinclair? It's been fucking years and after all the talks we have, nothing's changed. You have all these other girls, so what do you want from me?" She sniffed, questioning what she was worth yet again.

"I ain't been with nobody else Nalani. You know that I'm trying mama." He reached to wipe her face, and she rolled her eyes, standing up so she could get out of his lap.

"I'm not lying to you. Here, check my phone. I haven't deleted nothin', you can check all that shit. I'm not cheating on you and I haven't in a while. We got passed that, remember? We doing better now Nalani." He tossed his phone on the table, thankful he had a protective case on it because he tossed it pretty hard.

"It's not just the cheating Sinclair. It's the not being there for me because you're always gone now, you don't notice when I'm mad, you come up with an excuse every time I ask can we go out-it's so much other shit besides cheating." She gestured with her hands, no longer sad, instead becoming upset.

"I do everything that I'm supposed to as your fiancé, and as your best friend. I clean, I cook, I do your laundry, I help you with your homework, I guide you before your Socratic seminars. I helped your fucking grandma with the homeless food drive! Literally everything!" She continued to rant, finally getting everything off of her chest.

"I don't know what else to do Sin. I ask myself every night, what can I do to be better for him? How can I make him love me the way that he used to?" Her voice cracked, and he looked away from her, swallowing the lump in his throat.

"And I can't find anything Sin. Now that I'm asking you what can I do to be better, you don't even have anything to say because there's nothing else. I do everything already. This will never fucking work-and I've tried for so damn long to keep holding on."

"I don't wanna lose you, you know? You are my favorite person ever, despite the way that you've been treating me. But I can't keep doing myself like this Sinclair. I can't." She began crying harder, and he stood from his seat, pulling her in for a hug.

"I'm so fucking sorry Marie. I'm sorry baby." He referred to her by her middle name, holding her tight while she quietly cried on his chest.

"I can't tell you that I'll do better because I haven't been keeping my word, I know that. I want you to do what's best for you, and if that's ending shit with me then that's okay. But I'm not letting you go, aight? I'ma learn to do better and then I'm getting you back, you hear me?" He kissed the side of her face, feeling her hug him tighter.

"I'll learn to be better for us. You so beautiful to me Marie, I don't deserve you and I know that. I'm so fucking sorry man. I didn't even realize baby. I'm such a fuck up man, I be trying, I swear to god. I don't know what it is Nalani." He ran his hand down his face, trying to stop himself before he cried as well.

"I love you so much. I'm sorry baby." He rubbed her back, trying to soothe her cries that made his stomach turn.

"Why can't you just be right for me?" Another crack seeped through her sad voice, resting her hands on his shoulders.

"I'ma learn Nalani. I promise." He looked down at her, and she grabbed his face once his lips pressed against hers.

He picked her up as soon as she allowed him to deepen it, and she wrapped her arms around his neck, being carried back to their room.

"I hate you s-so much, fuck," She frowned, feeling herself become wet as he trailed soft kisses down her neck.

"I know baby." He put his lips back on hers as her back came in contact with the bed, and he reached down to pull her panties off, following up next with his shirt that she wore.

Her mouth fell open as his wet kisses met her slit that glistened with her lubricant, wet for the man who knew her body the best.

Sinclair's large hands gripped her waist, holding her steady as he took her clit in his mouth, flicking his tongue right underneath it.

"Fuck," She breathed out, moaning as he shared a deep and sensual kiss with her opening, his face beginning to drip with her wetness.

She attempted to close her trembling legs, another soft moan leaving her lips once he popped her thigh to keep them spread open.

"I'm cumming." She whined, lifting her back from the bed as she released the knot in her stomach, feeling her opening convulse as she came in his mouth.

Sinclair groaned against her, burying his face deeper in her slit so that her cum filled his mouth-his favorite taste.

She pulled him up by his head, sliding her tongue in his mouth so that she could taste herself, both of them moaning against each other's lips.

He reached into his nightstand to grab a condom, knowing that she no longer wanted raw sex with him, and that was completely his fault. He needed to do better with her, and it made him sad that he was just now realizing how terrible he'd been to her.

Nalani gasped, her eyes fluttering open after feeling him began to insert himself inside of her, and he moaned at the feeling.

"I'm so sorry. I'm sorry baby." He pushed deeper, and tears brimmed in her eyes as she tried to get used to his length-they hadn't had sex in a few weeks. She couldn't lie like she hadn't missed it.

"Oh my god," She moaned, holding the back of his head that was in the crook of her neck, her body jerking with each deep and slow stroke he sent to her lower half.

"I missed you. How you feeling baby?" He stroked deeper, sucking her skin that resulted in a series of moans from her.

"I missed you too. Mm, fuckkk, you f-fuck!" She cried out, her nails scratching at his back, wanting him to speed up but she was obsessed with how slow and sensually he was fucking her.

"You thinkin' 'bout givin' my pussy away? Huh?" He sped up, feeling her nails digging deeper into his skin like she needed something, and her moans grew louder.

"No, oh my fucking g-shit! Baby I'm cumming." She whined, his dick repeatedly jabbing at her spot to trigger an orgasm.

"Nah. Hold it. Don't cum." He sat up, pulling her arms off of him and then he held them above her head, looking down to watch his dick slide in and out of her.

"Sinclair," She whimpered, her trembling legs wrapping around his waist, and he groaned at the use of his name-he loved hearing it from her.

"Yeah baby, I'm here. I'm right here." He slammed deeper, using his dick to play with her juices that were so loud that he could hear it.

"I need to cum, please. I-Sinclair, please?" She cried, begging for her release that would unfold at any second now.

"Cum." He fucked her harder as his own nut approached, and once she screamed, his hand placed over her mouth to shut her up.

"Be the fuck quiet. If you wake my daughter up I got something for you. You hear me? Shut that shit up and take it Nalani." Her cum stuck to his pelvis like glue from how close their bodies were, and her muffled cries quieted, before her eyes dazed as she began squirting.

"Fuck!" He groaned out, halting his movements as his nut unintentionally released, feeling his load make the condom full.

"Sin!" She gasped, feeling the condom bust inside of her, and he grunted, quickly pulling out in time so that the torn condom didn't linger inside.

"Shit baby, I'm sorry. Fuckkk," He pulled the condom off, stroking his dick at the sight of his nut leaking out of her.

She moaned, not able to focus on it long enough as she went through her orgasm, still cumming from their heavy session.

He pushed back inside of her, and both of them moaned together at the feeling of him raw and his nut that was releasing inside of her.

"I missed you so much. Fuck, fuck, fuck." He grunted, dropping his head as his dick throbbed, causing his body to slowly go limp on top of hers.

She wrapped her legs around him after he pulled out, trying to regulate her breathing as she calmed herself down from the high of her orgasm.

"Don't ever use my daughter as a way to make me cum ever again." She mumbled, and he laughed, making her lips spread into a small smile.

"I wasn't playing. You better hope she still sleep. I could go another round." He kissed her neck, and she chuckled, rubbing the back of his head.

"No. You need to go to the store and get me a plan B." She mumbled, turning her head to look at him.

"No more babies." She spoke, knowing that he was about to try and object.

"I'ma do better though." He mumbled, and she shrugged, her eyes low since she was now tired.

"You ain't changed your mind?" He asked while moving her hair from her face.

"Not really. Sex doesn't do anything for my decision making." She chuckled, and he didn't respond, rubbing her cheek.

"I want to see you do better, and then maybe we can try this again. I won't make any promises though. I'm tired Sin." She mumbled, referring to their broken relationship.

"What we gone do about Skye? You not taking her from me, are you?" He asked, and she shook her head no. He might've been a terrible fiancé, but he was an astounding father and she'd never take that from him.

"We'll figure something out-a schedule. We'll make it work." She told him, and he pulled her body closer, the two of them laying on their sides.

"Nalani I can do better. We don't have to do none of this, let me fix it." His eyebrows were furrowed, and she looked away from him, not wanting to give in.

"I'm tired of hearing the same shit. This is manipulative, steadily apologizing but acting the same way. That shit get annoying Azarias." She spoke, referring to him by his middle name.

He didn't respond, and the two laid in a not-so-comfortable silence while each occupied in their own thoughts.

"What we doing about the house?" He asked after a few quiet minutes, and she shrugged. She hadn't gotten that far in her thought process yet.

Nalani grew up in a two parent household all the way until she moved out to be with Sinclair, and she wanted the same thing for her daughter. She tried to keep it that way for so long, but she was tired of forcing something that wasn't there.

"I love you, so much. I'm sorry baby." He mumbled, and she wrapped her arms around him, lowly sighing to herself as she became sad at their new circumstances.

"I love you too Sinclair. But, I still need my plan B. So get up." She joked to lighten the mood even though she was serious, and he laughed, sitting up in the bed.

She held on to him as he picked her up, carrying her to the bathroom. After a half hour shower, the two of them cleaned up the mess in the room, and then Sinclair left to go to Walgreens.

As Nalani was putting a fresh comforter set on the mattress, the room door opened, and she turned her head to see a drowsy Skye.

"Hey puddin'. Come here." She opened her arms, and Skye walked into her embrace, being picked up from the ground.

"I missed you yesterday. I made cookies at Nana's." Skye kissed her cheek, and she smiled, walking out of the room with her.

"I missed you too baby. What kind you made? Not chocolate, right?" She asked, and Skye nodded, yawning as she was placed on her stepping stool in her bathroom.

"It was cake batter cookies. I saw it on Tiktok." She yawned again, putting toothpaste on her toothbrush so that she could brush her teeth.

"And you didn't save any for me?" Nalani sat on the tub side, plugging the drain so that she could start some bath water.

"No. Grandpa ate the rest that I put in the ziplock baggie." She told her, and Nalani laughed, shaking her head at her dad.

"Next time you need to beat grandpa ass. He know I be hungry, hell." She rolled her eyes, and Skye giggled, rinsing her mouth out.

Lol surprise 😍🙏🏼🤰🏽
