"In his defense I said we shouldn't wake you. You been working hard lately and I wanted you to get some sleep. I hear Saylor keeping you up at night. I was just trying to be nice, that's all." Ameerah said.

"Well when you put it like that I guess I can't be mad."

"Good because we brought you some food too."

"What I get?"

"Chicken biscuit and chicken minis from CFA."

"My favorite, thank you twin."

"No problem." Ameerah said before there was a knock on the door.

"Are y'all expecting someone?" Ameerah asked.

"Nah. Are you?"

She chuckled slightly and asked "Was that a joke?"

"A bad one apparently." I responded.

"I'll get it." She said.

She opened the door revealing Ryan with a bouquet of flowers.

"Ryan- Hi." She said a little flustered.

"What're you doing here?" She asked.

"Well I came to give these to you."

This nigga can't be serious.

"Aww thank you. I have to buy a vase for them. Did you want to come in?" She asked.

"Nah he good where he at shawty." Luke answered for me.

"Yeah I actually gotta go to the gym to train but I wanted to see how you was doing first."

"I'm doing good. Thank you again. I really appreciate it."

Just as Ameerah was about to close the door I heard a familiar voice traveling through the hallway.

"No, no I'm here now Malik. It's too late Odell should've taken the chance I gave him. Now which door is it?"

"Nevermind I see Ryan right here."

"Ryan how are you?" She asked in a tone.

"I'm doing well. I came to see your daughter."

"Mmm good for you. I actually came to speak to Odell. Where is he?"

"I'm sorry who are you?" Ameerah asked confusingly.

"No one honey just get Odell. Thanks."

"I got it Meerah. Wassup why you here?"

"I didn't want it to come to this but I wanted you to hear it from me and not a court official. I've requested an emergency family court hearing for Skylar."

I took a deep breath and looked between her and Ameerah. I couldn't let her find out this way. Her mom was being a bitch and I hate that it took me this long to see her in this light.

"Aight can we step outside and talk about this?"

"Why?" She asked while scanning my face for answers.
