❝𝐀𝐍𝐃 whom are you visiting?"
"Janet Westin." Ja answered the woman at the front desk.
We'd woke up early this morning and drove to West Palm Beach so we could all visit Mama J because this is where her nursing home was located.
"How many visitors are there?" The woman asked to busy on her computer to look up.
Janai counted all of us before giving her the answer of 7.
Printing something in the printer behind her, she removed it handing us a sheet of seven yellow stickers with 𝐕𝐈𝐒𝐈𝐓𝐎𝐑 written boldly.
We all placed them on our shirts.
"Walk around so I can check your temperatures." She picked up a thermometer for adults, checking each of our temperatures as we stood in a crooked line.
Once she finished she sat back down in her desk seat "Room 316, the elevator is further down to your left." She placed the key on the desk and Ja picked it up.
She not gon check to see how we know her?
"Okay miss lil ugly bitch think she the shit eyes." Bre commented causing all of us to laugh as we entered the small elevator.
Day cuddled up under me so therefore it would be more space.
Finally making it to the room we waited for Ja to unlock the door in which he did allowing us in.
There was a woman in there cleaning the living room area "You guys are?" She asked with a slight attitude.
"Her grandkids." Brelyn answered in the same tone she used rolling his neck as well.
This ghetto ass nursing home.
The woman's mode changed "Oh, she's excepting you guys, she got dressed up and everything!" She excitedly said leading us into the small bedroom.
I kissed Day's cheek just because.
A'Naryiah spoke up "Me and Nai gone wait in the living room."
"I'll go with them and let y'all have your family time." Day tried to exit the room but I held her waist not allowing her to leave.
"Nah, I want you too meet her." Her eyes got big when I said that.
"Day this Mama J, Ma this is Day'iana." I introduced.
"Nice to meet you Mama J." Day leaned down to give her a hug in which Ma hugged her back as well.
"Now, I'll let y'all have your family time." She repeated before quickly leaving to the living room.
"She's beautiful, is she your girlfriend?"
I twisted my hair nervous at her question "Wel— Yes." They all answered for me "Mane shut up bruh." I blushed.
"Ion know if she my girlfriend just yet cause ian even ask her yet." I shrugged my shoulders
"And why not?"
"Yea nigga why not?" Brelyn echoed stepping closer to Ma's hospital like bed "I don't need your input Simon." She called him by his middle name.
Brelyn Simon Jennkins, nigga name so fucking stupid.
"I'm just saying Ma, This stupid mfer won't make this girl his girlfriend knowing she's the perfect person, she accepts what he does, she always up under him and more importantly she be making us food and little pallets." He went into depths as he described Day'iana.
"I know that nigga I just wanted Ma's opinion on her." I mugged him since he knows everything.
"Well she seems like a nice person, and she's beautiful, is she smart?" She questioned.
Mama J would forever ask this question when it came to me or any of us having a girl or bringing her around.
"Yea Ma, she in school right now to be a veterinarian." I remembered from that day I had stayed over Day'iana's house for the first time.
Damn, we done made it far.
"She's clearly better than that Tamia girl, had my baby cr— never mind." She almost spilled what happened between me and her.
The night I found out Tamia cheated on me I had recklessly driven here and I broke down explaining everything to Ma and that took a lot for me to cry because the only times I had cried were when my mom had went to jail and my grandmother died.
Tamia's the reason why I barely give a fuck now.
"Cried? Nigga you was crying over that hoe ass bitch—" Nelly was interrupted by Ma's hands flying across his face.
"Get out, matter fact all of y'all get out and tell Day'iana to come in." She dismissed them inviting Day inside.
Shortly after they left Day'iana quietly entered the room closing the door behind her.
Walking next to me, she wrapped her arms around my waist hugging it and I wrapped one of my arms around her.
"Is everything okay?" She asked looking in between me and Ma.
"Nothing baby I just wanted to talk y'all privately," She answered "I'm getting old so bare with me." She rasped inhaling a deep breath in.
"My baby Horace, is sensitive, quiet, and shy wether he wanted to admit to it or not, I don't care how hard he is in the streets. He hates to show his feelings, show affection, talk to people, heck he rarely talks to his mom but he's been like that since a baby so all I ask for you is just bare with him." I rolled my eyes at her commentary while Day listened deeply to her words.
"I see the good in you and the love you too share and all I ask is for you too take care of my baby while I'm gone- Ma don't talk like that." I interrupted once I realized what this conversation was coming to.
"No, no I have to because you and I both know I don't have a long to live and we have face it because everybody has their time and mines is soon." She spoke weakly before coughing a bit.
Tears fled down my face but Day wiped them away for me after she did hers.
I licked over my lips scanning the room around me, looking everywhere but at Mama J "Horace look at me." She requested and I did as told staring at her frail powerless body.
That's when I realized everything, the oxygen tubes, the wires and cords, the various machines.
Mama J was damn near on her death bed.
"Oh before I forget how's the rap thing going Baby?" She hoarsely asked after inhaling yet another long breath.
"I stopped it, ion think I'll take off in it." Day'iana gripped my arm looking up at me "You didn't tell me you rap Bae."
"Cause I don't, it was just for fun."
"Horace Please, you wanted too take off with that rapping thing and I did too but you gave up on me." She frowned and Day'iana did as well.
"Why'd you give up on Mama J Bae?" Day whined throwing a small fit which turned into a slight tantrum.
Is her ass serious right now?
"Aww it's okay, but I'm hope you try again for me?" She begged with a little cough behind it, I nodded kissing her hand "I'll try again for you Ma."
I couldn't let her down.
"I luh you Ma, ima try to come see you next week." I kissed her forehead "If God allows me, I'll be here waiting." She softly smiled.
"It was nice meeting you." Day'iana leaned down hugging Mama J and she of course hugged her back.
"You too, beautiful lady."
Leaving the room everybody looked us "What?" I bluntly asked and they raised their eyebrows awkwardly moving their eyes.
They all went into the room behind us.
"You okay?" I nodded but she grabbed my face pulling it down to face hers "I need to hear you say your okay Horace."
"I'm good Mama, I swea." She smiled causing me to smile.
