Mine

Chapter 3:

Jazmine

I had to fight with Kjayy to get him up this morning since he wanted to stay up late last night.

After I gave him a bath he was still sleepy. I washed his hair and decided not to put a hat on him because he's getting a haircut later.

"Mommy, I not go to daycare," Kjayy pouted.

"Why?"

"I tooooo tired." I chuckled as I picked him up.

"Then you're gonna have to come to the shop with me while I do Nanna's hair." That made him smile since he loves his Nanna.

When we got to my shop me and Kjayy walked in to my secretary and shampooers saying hi. I'm the main hairstylist and I also have two part time girls I let do hair in my shop.

Kjayy ran off to his Nanna since she was already in my chair.

"Nanna!" Kjayy exclaimed.

"Hey, Mama Carmen," I spoke.

"There goes my grandbaby. Hey, Jazzy." Mama Carmen said as she scooped Kjayy up.

Mama Carmen isn't Kjayy's real grandma but I have done her hair since he was a baby. So they have always been close. She's the mom I never had and she loves me and Kjayy like her own.

We talked as I did her hair. Kjayy sit in her lap sleep the whole time.

"Every time I look at him he reminds me of my son. They look just alike. You sure his dad's name is Kordell?" she asked looking down at Kjayy.

"Yes, Mama. We go through this all the time."

"I know, but it's so crazy he doesn't look like you yet looks just like my son."

"What is your son's name anyway?" I ask.

"Jay-" She was interrupted by her phone ringing.

I finished her hair then she hugged us both and left. I wiped Kjayy's face once he woke up. I sat in my chair with Kjayy in my lap and decided to get on Instagram until it's time to go to Xavier's shop since I didn't book any other appointments today.

I got a request from some boy with the name KINGIN I clicked his page and realized it's Jayceon. I accepted and followed him back.

Me and Kjayy then headed to get something to eat before going to get his haircut.

"Aye y'all better get on y'all shit! Y'all know if she coming through the door X soon following." That's the first thing I heard when I stepped through the door. I laughed at his outburst.

"Shut up, Ace," I said.

Ace is one of Xavier's boys. He runs the shop for Xavier. This is his business to cover up for all the money he makes from being in the streets. He rarely comes in the shop unless he's needed or to cut Kjayy's hair which was the reason for Ace's outburst. Ace is darkskin, white teeth, and he fly but that's just the homie.

"Aye Deuce, don't her little boy look like King?" Ace asked the guy that just walked near him.

"Yeah, I just said that over there." I scrunched up my face.

"Who the hell is King?" I asked. Just then Xavier came in all loud.

Everybody yelled their what's up and dapped him up. Kjayy hopped off my lap to go to him.

"What's up, little man? Let's get you right. Jaz, I'ma do a different cut today." I looked at him like he was crazy.

"Ummm no you're not," I said.
