bound by basketball •the sequel•

chapter 53.

kk🦋.

since everyone is in cali we decided to go to the beach. i feel like it will be a fun experience for all of us as brothers & sisters. i finished putting kayden in his little shorts & grabbed his floaty and toys.

"okay mommy's waiting for us in the car you ready ?" i asked him.

"yes mama" he said excitedly.

"that's my boy" i grabbed his hand and we headed outside to the car where juju was waiting. i noticed she was wearing a bathing suit top with jean shorts.

i could see the red ink in between her breasts.

"your staring baby" she said making me giggle. i handed kayden his coloring book and we headed off.

"this is gonna be so fun" juju said and i nodded.

10 minutes later we pulled up to the beach and everyone was there except bronny and jada but they pulled up 2 minutes after us.

we watched as bronny held navaeh while jada had her toys and stuff. "hey guys" jada said.

everyone took their time to hold navaeah and play with her & then her and kayden started making sand castles. juju started recording them both.

we all sat around making a circle so we could just talk. (about folks as bryce would say).

"can yall believe we've been friends for so long. who knew we could hold on to each other. y'all know black folks can't keep no friends" aaliyah said.

"no fr. nun of us turned weird" rayah said.

"except paige" amoura said rolling her eyes.

"i never figured out what her problem was. but she need to grow up cus ain't no way you couldn't communicate with us but now she tryna slip back into our lives no ma'am." i said.

"weird ahh" bryce said shaking his head.

"so bryce how come jazz didn't come ?" juju asked.

"oh she had training today so she couldn't make it" he said making us nod.

"but that's okay cus i got a new, better, and not weird bestie" i added making tyy dance.

"period! always gone be love for you and yk imma always be there for you" ty said making me hug her.

"it's about time she found a lover tho she been single for 2 decades" bryce mumbled.

ty laughed and then got up grabbing bryce's ankles.

"man aight chill out my bad" bryce said. she put his ankles down and sat back down.

juju🌸.

"okay we should go get in the water tho" rayah said and we nodded.

"wait who's gonna watch the kids ?" kk asked.

"we can bring them with us"

"no i'll watch them i'm not getting in that water i just got my hair did" amoura said making bryce scoff and mock her.

"you always worried about your nappy hair" bryce said.

"bryce shut your ugly a** up" amoura said pinching his neck.

we went into the water & played a little bit of football. i watched as ja tried to throw ty in the water. he easily picked her up.

"babe put me down.. do not drop me" she said kicking.

"i'm not kidding jamel" she added making him laugh. he put her down and she pushed his chest.

"man you boring" he said.

"whatever how about you lemme get your dreads wet"

"oh nah" he said.

"okay but you would look so sexy wet"

"oh so i'm ugly now ?"

"oh boy shut up that's now what i said. your always cute baby" she said. he smirked at her and grabbed her hand.

they remind me a lot of me and bronny because every time we come to the beach he would pick me up and try to throw me in the water.

"heffa" i mumbled to myself giggling.

i ran over to kk picking her up and spun her around. life with her has been but amazing. even through all the ups and downs i would do it all over again.

"i love you forever mama" i told kk.

"i love you more gorgeous" she said.

i leaned down and kissed her. i love this girl and i'm glad i get to spend forever with her. she and kayden are my biggest blessings.

jada💋.

we sat around the camp fire and roasted marshmallows. lebron came and took navaeh and tbh i was grateful cus i don't want her inhaling smoke.

i watched as kayden hugged his parents bye as sari took him to the car. he ran to her and grabbed her hand. i laid my head on bronny's shoulders.

i loved these people with everything inside me. i've never had such an amazing group of friends. they've been with me through so much and vice versa i couldn't ask for better friends.

"i love this life" amoura said.

"no fr. you guys got my heart" juju said.

"toast to our friend group. that we will stick together forever and lord willingly grow old together" kk said.

"CHEERS" we yelled. everyone decided to do story times on their favorite memories. and it's been nun but good vibes. it's ALWAYS a good vibe with them no matter what.

"y'all remember when we went to that after party after juju nem wedding and bryce climbed on top of the building and then was to scared to come down so ty had to go up there and get him ?" i asked making everyone laugh but bryce.

"your not funny jada" he said. he huffed and rolled his eyes crossing his arms.

"look guys he's so sassy" kk said.

"i'm not sassy" bryce said rolling his eyes.

"boy- okay" juju said laughing.

"i really love you guys.. us forever" rayah said.

"my dawgs" aaliyah added.

"FOREVER" we yelled together.

starting life with them has been the best thing God has given me along with my husband and daughter. we been through thick and thin even after everyone went their separate ways to do what they love.

but deep down it will always be us no matter what. we gone always have each other. i couldn't ask for better brothers & sisters fr. they got ma heart. ohh and basketball </3.
