"Ouuu you got me thick as hell. Yo daddy can't talk his shit now" I told Jeremiah while I looked in the mirror of the bedroom, holding Jeremiah. I had just finished changing his diaper but stopped in the mirror to look at myself after I went to throw the diaper away
I ran my free hand through my hair which has grown a whole lot during my pregnancy. I really needed it done but even though it got longer, for some reason it also got a little thin and I was scared it would break off or fall out if I get it done
After playing around in the mirror I walked out of the room and me and Jeremiah went to the kitchen. Surprisingly I wasn't in the cooking mood last night so we ate pizza, which I regret now being that I'm hungry this morning and left over pizza wasn't something I wanted
"I guess mommy about to cook up some breakfast this morning" I said as I went to grab his swing from the living room, dragging it to the kitchen and sat him in it before using my hair tie on my wrist to tie my hair back so I could cook
As I started to open the fridge to see what was inside, I could hear the door open
"BABYMOMMAAAAAAA" Meechie yelled and I playfully rolled my eyes, laughing. As I looked back at him I saw that he had flowers and a bouquet from edible arrangements
"What is this?"
"This for my babymomma"
I smiled "well what did you do?"
"Who said I gotta do some?"
"Cause... what did you do?"
"I ain do nothin. I can't just be nice for a day?"
I looked at Meechie some type of way causing him to laugh
"Fuck you ari. Just take this shit and say thank you witcho half blind ass"
"Now that's more like it" I grabbed the stuff from him with a smile and kissed him "thank you baby"
Jeremiah sounded like he was about to cry so Meechie went and picked him up while I sat the stuff on the counter
"What bald headed hoe shit you, Kay and Bri bout to get into later?"
"Why it gotta be bald headed hoe shit"
"Cause I know y'all"
"Well I can't tell you what it is cause ion know. But don't try to play us... besides, it's not just us three"
"Who else it gone be cause y'all ain got no friends"
"Mj"
"Like I said. Bald headed hoe shit. Ion know why you thought saying Mary name was gone make it better. All that did was sprinkle a little more ghetto to whatever y'all got going on"
I burst out laughing while he soothed Jeremiah
"Oh don't do her"
"Nah ima come for all of y'all" he told me and soon after, Jeremiah just started throwing up all over him "damn nigga"
I tried to hold in my laugh but it just came out while Meechie kinda held Jeremiah away from him
"Aweee he loves his daddy so much"
"Nah fuck that" he said as I went to get his burp rag, wiping Jeremiah's mouth off and grabbed him from Meechie
"Every damn day" Meechie looked down at his shirt before taking it off, going down the hall while I still laughed, looking at Jeremiah
"He'll learn to appreciate these moments one day"
"Fuck that" Meechie yelled from the room "his ass don't ever throw up on you but as soon as I got him he wanna just let all that shit out. Ain non fuckin way"
Again, I looked down at Jeremiah seeing him with a small smile on his face
"I bet that felt good huh?"
After a while Meechie came back into the kitchen with no shirt on and he grabbed Jeremiah from me
"Nah give him back. You hurt his feelings"
"That nigga feelings ain hurt. He smiling"
I looked at Jeremiah again and shrugged
"So. He smiling through the hurt his daddy just caused. Passing him off like that cause he wanna show you a little love"
"A little love on a expensive ass shirt"
"The shirt was $22"
"Anything over $10 is expensive"
I rolled my eyes, opening the edible arrangement
"I'll buy you another stupid Ralph Lauren shirt"
"Might as well get the three pack while you at it" he told me while walking off, going to the living room while I ate a strawberry
<><><><>
"He just randomly got you an edible arrangement?" Kay asked and I nodded as I pushed the cart while we walked through the store
"Yeah. And not one of the small ones either. It was one of them 70 or 80 dollar ones"
"Aweee" Kay poked out her lip
"Girl shy cooked breakfast this morning" bri blurted out and the both of us looked at her
"Shy did what?" Kay asked
"Cooked breakfast. I was so scared to eat it. All them times they made fun of me poisoning shy, I was lowkey scared he was gonna try to poison me"
"Well if you end up sick or something I know who to tell on"
"Forreal. Cause it was so random. Like what?"
"Same with the flowers and stuff" I agreed with bri then looked at Kay "you think they setting us up or something? Did benji do anything for you?"
She smiled big as hell
"Wellll I woke up to part 4 of last night"
"Damn Kay. Part 4?"
"Yeah. Part one was in the bathtub cause he set up this realll nice bath with flower petals and all that romantic stuff. Part two and three was after we got in the bed and we stayed up till like 3 in the morning just fuckin our lives away. UGH! It was so much fun. Y'all gotta try it"
Me and bri looked at each other while Kay just continued to smile
"This bitch gone be pregnant soon"
"Y'all stoppp. Cause I really do want another baby. Not right now though"
"You can have that. I'm fine with my one"
"Jr was enough for me until shy got me with Brielle. But trust I'm DONE after her"
"Well I want one more. At least.."
My phone vibrated so I picked it up, opening a message from Benji in some group chat he made with all of us and I smiled seeing it was a picture of the kids. They were all sitting in the chair and jr grown ass was holding Jeremiah while throwing up 4s. Hendrix sat beside him smiling while Brielle sat on the other side of jr with her finger in her mouth, looking like a whole fucking baby model. Kyran and kinsley sat on the other side of Hendrix and while kinsley was looking at Hendrix, Kyran held a mug on his face per usual. Another baby in the picture caught my attention and Hendrix was holding her. It was Milani's babygirl, Kaleia
"Awe.. they got Kaleia too?" Bri asked, looking up from her phone and Kay nodded
"Benji went and got her earlier while lani at work and wanted to chill with her boo after"
"Look at him being the cool uncle"
"And I be trying to be the cool aunt but obviously that spot is taken" Kay said as she nodded off and we looked.
Mj, who walked off from us to go get some medicine for a headache she had, finally came back and she still wore her shoes while carrying a box of gummies, caprisuns and chips
"You be getting all this stuff for these kids"
She put the stuff in the cart before looking up "the kids... yeah"
"You look like you so through for the day" I told her and she nodded
"Bitchhh. I got home at 5. Got some in until 7 then woke up at 9:30"
"Unt Unt" Kay stopped her "you can't just skip over that. Who you been fuckin?"
Even though we couldn't see her eyes due to the shades, the twisted lips along with her scratching her neck was enough for Kay
"Maryyyyy" Kay put her hands on her hips "you still fuckin Carmen"
"See. What had happened was... I was lit at the party. She was there turning up cause she single now. She was looking good, I love girls, and y'all know the rest"
"You and that girl should just get together at this point" bri said to mj
"We been texting all day since she left. Ion know though. Ima have to think on that"
"Mj! Wassup!" Some random ass man spoke as we all walked and Mj spoke back
"I be forgetting Mj famous out here in these streets" Kay sarcastically said making Mj laugh
"The people love me"
"Meanwhile the people still hate me and I don't even know em" Kay shrugged
"You turned a hood nigga into a husband. Of course they hate you" Mj told her while looking at her phone "damn y'all got hella kids"
"Almost half of the kids in the picture belong to Kay" bri pointed at karma, resulting in her sticking up her middle finger
"Go to hell. Y'all got kids in that picture too. Except for Mj"
"Cause.. no disrespect but fuck them kids. I'm good with being that childless, rich aunt"
"Let's just pray nobody slip up and get you pregnant"
Mj shook her head "ion gotta worry about that. I don't even fuck with niggas nomore"
"Lemme find out Carmen got you hooked on the coochie"
"I'm telling y'all. Go fuck her once and see if you'll say the same thing"
"Chile" Kay ran her hand through her hair "Dimitri would kill me and the girl. Let me say some shit around him like that. That boy don't even like people breathing in my direction"
"Meechie would probably just watch" I truthfully answered "that just sounds like a Meechie thing to do"
Bri huffed "don't even get me started on shy. His horny ass would join in"
"Awee" Mj smiled "y'all know them so well"
"Girlll" bri laughed "take yo drunk ass to sleep"
"Trust me. I'm going after we leave here. What are we doing here?"
"We fixing up the shop before we surprise the- Mary I sent specific details to you yesterday"
"I was pregaming already when you text me all that shit. All I remember was something about the store so I came"
Kay sucked her teeth while we laughed
"At least she came" I defended Mj
"Thank you Ari!"
"Fuck both of y'all" Kay stuck up her finger, now laughing while pushing off the cart she had
