" Nah my nigga you ain't, you been this way fa' sum weeks now" he stated " So what the fuck is wrong witchu bro?" he asked

" Nun of ya' damn business" he snapped

" Whatever man" Jaylan threw his hand up before leaving

" Hi my love!" she smiled as she laid in bed

" Hi my princess" he smiled back—it was safe to say that Kafeyah was the only person keeping him sane and out of trouble.

" You okay?" she asked concerned noticing the bags under his eyes.

" I'm straight" he nodded as he yawned

" You don't look straight ta' me" she mumbled, Zymeir heard her but decided to not reply. " When you comin' home?" she asked changing the subject

" Your health and mental health come first papa. You're loosing money by not being at the fullest of your capacities" she preached

" No thank you, i cooked for tonight" she yawned

" What you cook mama?" he asked as he got in his car and started the engine up.

" That's for me to know and you to discover" she smirked

Zymeir sucked his teeth and pulled off from his designated parking spot. " We taking a nap when i get home too" he nodded

" Whatever you want papa" she smiled

" You talked to Ella?" he asked as he stopped at a red light
