***Im praying the photo shows man, comment if you can see it***

Paisley,

Lonnie ran in my room with his Superman onesies on.

"Mommy, I'm scared" He pouted

"What's wrong?" I sat up

"I heard gunshots in my dream" He croaked

I picked him up and put him in the bed with me. Rubbing his forehead to calm his sobbing down, I couldn't help but think about that one infamous day that happened 2 years ago.

Lonnie has dreams about a certain guy killing shooting someone on the street. He described the victim so well, and it was his father, Larenzo.

"How come ion got a dad?" He looked up at me

"Lonnie, we discussed this"

"You were lying though" Lonnie huffed

"Stop" I groaned "I mean it"

"Big meany" He mugged me, getting out the bed

"Alonzo, bring that little behind back here, now" I said sternly

He slouched, turning back around. His bottom lip was out, making his cheeks bloat.

"I will tell you sooner or later, okay? But for now, just listen to me. Mommy's having a hard time and she's stressing. Can you act like a big boy and stop throwing fits for me?"

"Yes ma'am" He nodded

"There's my baby" I smiled. He giggled as he climbed on my lap

"Awww sheit, slumber party!" Quinta barged in the room

She ran and jumped in the bed, making Lonnie and I almost fall out the bed.

"Quinta, no"

"But Passion, I'm bored" She dragged out "And being bored is boring!"

"Talk to Rah"

"He sleep"

"At 9?"

"No, I just don't want to text him" She shrugged

"Why?"

"Not his type I guess" She twisted her mouth

I pinched her nose, "You better text him, girl"

"Whale," She put her finger out "That's onleh if you cawll Raisin back!"

"Hmm"

"Can you let go of mai nose now? I thank my ears are popping" She got in my face

Letting go of her nose, she breathed dramatically. Smacking my lips, she got up to leave the room. Lonnie was asleep on my lap, and I got up to put him in his bed. Tucking him in, I heard my phone ringing.

Going to answer it, I didn't look at the caller ID.

"Hello?" I said

"Hey" Reizon spoke "I was wondering if we could FaceTime tonight"

"Uh.." I touched my frizzy weird hair "Sure"

"Aight"

He hung up and he immediately called. I rushed to brush my hair down, answering the video call.

"Where you at?" He asked

"I, uh, I'm finding my charger" I rolled my eyes at my white lie

"Mhm, lemme find out your hair look nice instead of messed up. Trynna look cute" He smirked in the phone
