"Yeah. Just one. His family ain't as fertile as mine is apparently"

"It ain't us. It's the baby daddies" I shrugged and she laughed "but how old is she? She's gonna live with y'all?"

"Tyler just turned 22 and she's staying with Dana"

"Dana home let somebody stay with her? After she kicked me, Noel and liyah out? That's cold"

"Girl bye. You been long gone after you was dealing with that lil basketball boy. What Kentrell called him? Lil Michael Jordan"

"Both of y'all childish. Bye"

Kennedi let out a yawn and kicked her legs

"Well I'm ready to meet this niece of his. I wanna see if she can hang with us"

"Don't corrupt the poor girl now"

"What makes you think we'll corrupt her?"

Ma looked at me some type of way and I rolled my eyes. My door opened and liyah walked in holding Kemoni who was sleep

"There goes my bad butt"

"We stayed up late so she might be out for the rest of the day"

"Good" I mumbled and liyah laughed

"Don't do my niece"

"Well that's how you gift be when she get around her daddy. Y'all know she bout to act a damn donkey when she see him"

"She's a daddy's girl. Leave her alone. I'm starting to think y'all messing with her is the reason why she so bad"

I looked at me some type of way and she shrugged. Liyah laid Kemoni down on the other chair and Nasir looked over at her smiling. He then crawled over to her and pulled up on the chair where she was and as soon as he cocked his hand back liyah scooped him up

"No you don't you bully"

He started laughing and she put him down back where he originally was

"Did you enjoy being a parent for a few days?" I asked liyah and she shrugged

"I had fun. I'm ready to watch Kennedi next" she smiled and I shook my head

"For you to give my baby hot sauce too"

"Hot sauce?" Momma questioned while looking at me and liyah laughed then sat down. We talked for about another 30 minutes before there was a knock on the door

"That's my man" ma boasted while she stood up and walked over to the door

"What made you think it's them?" I asked

"Cause. Unlike the rest of y'all, Derek knocks instead of just opening doors"

I shrugged because she did have a point. She opened the door and greeted Derek as he walked in. Right behind him was obviously his niece Tyler.

"Who that? She's beautiful as hell" liyah asked and I nodded

"She is. That's Derek's niece"

"Hey" Derek greeted us and Nasir started smiling at Derek. He then crawled up to him and Derek picked him up "this is my niece Tyler. She's gonna be living with Dana for a while until she gets her own place"

"Girl you pretty as hell. What the fuck" I bluntly blurted out and she nervously laughed

"Thank you" she responded back to me and looked at Derek "you ain't tell me Elena was your stepdaughter"

"Yes I did. I told you that on the way here"

"But I ain know it was THIS Elena"

I knitted my eyebrows together confused and she looked at me again "I follow you on Instagram. And I was hoping you would've opened a store an Nashville but I'm out here now so it don't matter"
