"Its okay baby, how was your school?"
"It was so fun! We played and I learned how to count to 10" She said with a ball of excitement.

"Can you count for me baby?"
"Yeah.... 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10!!" She smiled showing some of her missing teeth.

"What about mommy?"
I sighed knowing that my mother was nowhere to be found.
"Mommy went onna work trip, she'll be back soon."

"Hey Mrs. Carter"
"Now what I tell you about that?" She said laughing
"I told you it make me feel old"
"But you don't look like it" I said from a far getting straight to work.
I'm an assistant for Mrs. Carter. Not what I wanna do but its life, plus I've grown to love the Carters. They treat me like family.
"Gray baby!" That's my nickname from Mrs. Carter.
"Yeah?"
"You know my family's annual cookout is tomorrow."
"Yeah I think I heard you mention it before. You need me to work?"
"No I wanted to see if you Lei Lei was free"

"Yup! We'll meet you there at 1:30"
"Okay.. I need you to take these papers to Chloe and Halle's studio and see what their working on. Make a few corrections if needed."
"Yes ma'am!"
"Home sweet Home!" Lei sighed like she worked 3 jobs with 4 kids.
"Girl" I said laughing

"Mommy!"
"Hi sweetie-"
"Lei! Pajamas.. I'll be up there to run your bath. Upstairs now"
"But-"
"Now" I said sternly.
"Yes sissy"
"Where were you?"
"I was onna business trip"
"A business trip? Really? Don't you think you should tell somebody?"
"I don't have to tell you shit!"
"You should.. Especially since my baby sister was asking for ya trifling ass!" Smack. Thud.
I looked up seeing that I was on the ground but I hopped up quickly and looked my egg donor in her burning eyes.
"The next time you hit me again... ya body gon come up missing. And a bullet will be launched in your temple."
She stepped in my face with her nose flared.
"Is that a threat lil girl? Cause I don't take threats lightly.."
"Nah sweetie.. Its a fucking promise" I lifted my shirt so she could visibly see my gun.
"Or maybe I'll carve 'abuser' on your stomach until you bleed out" I said flipping my blade onto her neck.
"Which would you prefer?" She looked me in my eyes one last time before walking away leaving the house.
"fucking bitch" I mumbled before tending to my baby sister.
