Chapter 13.

At work I filed all the paperwork that was being piled up at my desk. I was super excited only because the homeowner called me earlier that day telling me that the house was ready. I was finally on my way to having a peace of mind. That house was giving me bad vibes and I wanted out. Telling Cher the good news she congratulated me. I had to meet with the man after work and I was ready. The day ran smoothly until my co workers pissed me off. Obviously you can't put certain food in the break room because somebody stole my shït. Now they knew not to play on my time because my attitude was at an all time high. Cher gave me hers to replace mines to avoid me from going slap off on somebody. Like who does shït like that anyways. I'm so tired I don't know what to do. Craig was avoiding me at all costs because he knew that ass was on thin ice with me. After slaving I got ready to go. Cher wanted to go with me to look at the house but since she sacrificed her food for me she had to go get something to eat. I felt bad but she didn't have to do that. Going home I showered and changed clothes. Locking up the house and getting in the car I made it to my new house. It was dope as hell. I noticed a car parked by the curb and the door was slightly opened. Pulling in the driveway I got out and went to the door. A man stood there looking at the house and noticed me. "Are you Ms.Larson?" He asked with a smile. "Yes I am." I answered. "Nice to meet you I'm Paul. We talked on the phone earlier. Would you like a tour?" He asked. Shaking my head yes I looked around. The floors were white marbled and the walls were freshly painted White. A big fire place was in the living room it was beautiful, the space was spacious let's say that. It also had white fluffy carpet I was loving it. Going inside the kitchen was like heaven. A big chandelier huge from the ceiling and I had an island countertop it was white and grey, Also marbled. Looking I also noticed I had a patio. The backyard was big as hell. "Let's go upstairs." Paul said noticing my happy face. Going upstairs I followed him. "This house has three bedrooms and three bathrooms. One downstairs and two up here. Of course a bathroom in the hallway and, one in the master bedroom." He said showing me everything. I was really impressed this house topped my old one for sure. After the tour we looked over the paperwork as I gave him my final payments on the house. Handing me my keys he welcomed me home. Now I got to go through the troubles of moving. Standing in my home Paul made his way out. Locking the door behind him I called my mom. It's been a minute since I talked to her and I figured I needed to fill her in on everything. Sitting at the table I dialed her number and put her on speakerphone. Sitting my phone down I waited on an answer. "Hello." She finally answered. "Hey mom." I said. "Hey baby. What's going on you okay?" She asked. "Nothing much so I bought another house and, I was wondering if you and dad wanted to come visit me soon. I'm planning on having a housewarming party." I said playing with my nails. "A new house wow congratulations. You like it?" She asked. "It's pretty big and yeah I do." I said. "We'll just let me know. Any word on the sex of the baby yet?" She asked. I knew that was coming. "Yeah but I'll reveal the gender at the party. I'm sending you the details." I said. "Okay baby I'll talk to you and see you soon." She said. "Okay mama bye." I said. Hanging up I then called Ava and told her the same. Even though she already knew the sex she better not say anything. I knew she wouldn't though so I wasn't tripping. Getting hungry I then locked up my new home and went to grab something to eat. Making it back to my old home I go inside and sit down at the table. Eating my food I looked around and knew I made the right decision. Just the thought of me being in this house I knew made Melo roll over in his grave. Once I was done eating I begin snatching things off the wall and packing up my stuff. Boxing up my belongings I looked through everything. Only because I wasn't planning on taking everything with me. Packing and throwing away things I was finally done while I looked at the empty house. Taking a much needed bath I was sweaty as hell. Laying down on my mattress I looked at tv and scrolled social media. Then I went through my contacts. Seeing Gino number I was really curious. I thought about calling him a couple times but would feel guilty just thinking about it. Rolling my eyes I rolled over and let the tv watch me. Falling asleep I got some rest. That next morning I woke up super late so I had to call off. I wasn't even tripping because I didn't want to go anyways. Calling the u-haul people I ordered a moving van and figured I'll just move my stuff. At the house the guys loaded my things as they followed me blocks away to my new house. Unloading my things they moved all my stuff in for me. I made sure to tip them good for all their help. Looking around once they left I thought Damn I got to rearrange all this shit. Getting to it I put everything in its place. I felt so much better in a new environment this is exactly what I needed to move forward.
