"Happy birthday to you." Everybody sung to London as the blew the candles out.

"Yayyy now yall can go play." My mama said as all the kids ran off

Unfortunately Tremani was not at the party. As for Monie I don't talk to him and I haven't and never will.

"Tt when's my daddy gonna be here?" Royalty asked

"Soon baby."

"Ok." She said going back to playing with the kids.

"Patience come over here and say hi to this lovely gentleman who helped me in the store the other day." My mama said waving me over.

I walked over and this fine brownskin man covered in tats and had gold slugs on his bottom teeth

"Hi" He said

"Hi" I said back

"My name is Patience nice to meet you."

"Ace" he said which I'm guessing was a nickname.

I then was about to walk away

"Patience why don't you and Ace carry these presents over there." Makala said pointing to a table.

She know what she doin. Think her ass slick.

"Ok I guess." I said then me and Ace grabbed some presents and walked over to the table.

"So you Monie's girl?" Ace asked me

I looked at him weirdly.

"Um who told you dat?"

"Word on the streets." Ace said.

"Well im not his girl and never will be."

"Oh so he jus made it up?" He asked

"Yep, we used to talk, but I saw his true colors and cut him off." I said keeping it simple.

"Mmm"

"Wha-" I was about to say.

"Tt I'm tirsty" Royalty said using her silly vocabulary.

"Ok c'mon."

I had got Royalty her drink and was about to pay, but Ace paid befoe I could.

"Thank you stranger." Royalty said

"Your welcome." Ace said before walking back to the table where all the adults were.

"Tt come play pwease." Royalty said in a begging tone.

"Ok" I told my niece.
