Ana
3:34 am
Gio was sick so I wasn't surprised when he decided to wake up at 3:30 in the morning irritated and fussy. I was awake but honestly I was just so exhausted to even get up so Dre went to check on him and somehow he ended up in the bed in between us
"I would give every dollar in my bank account to go back to being your age if I could" I told gio "all you gotta do is sleep, eat and play. That's it. And you just act like you can't ever sleep. Take advantage of all this free nap time cause you won't be able to get it when you my age. Especially when you have kids"
Gio looked at me before wiping his eyes and turned to lay on Dre
"I don't care. You can keep your daddy up. I'm going back to sleep" I got comfortable and laid back down closing my eyes
"You good twin?" I could hear Dre ask gio as he started coughing so I sat back up
"What you doing to my baby Dre? I closed my eyes for 5 seconds"
"We good. Go back to sleep" Dre told me before letting out a yawn
"Did you give him some of that medicine?"
"Yeah"
"You didn't give him any juice with it?"
"No"
"Juice" gio repeated and Dre looked at me some type of way
"I was just asking" I shrugged
Gio sat all the way up and sneezed
"Juice" he said again as he wiped his nose
"Bed.. you need to go to bed twin" Dre told him while getting up
While Dre left the room of course gio wanted to go with him so he tried to rush off of the bed. Instead dre just turned around and picked him up, leaving the room again
"He wanna be all up under his daddy while he sick. Better not be up under me when he feel better" I muttered as I laid back down, seeing Dre's phone light up in the middle of the bed where gio had it.
"Who the hell texting him at 3 in the morning?" I questioned while looking at the notification. It was a DM on Instagram from some girl
You gonna talk to me now or you still being an ass like the other day?🙄 If so call me on here. Cause I know you miss me and I know "wifey" probably check your calls🤣🤣
"The fuck?" I sat back up and unlocked his phone, going to the message. I scrolled up seeing old messages from YEARSSSS ago. Before me and him even met and it obviously shows they used to mess around. I clicked on the girls page and saw that she followed him but he didn't follow her so I went back to the message to text back
He's busy with his family so I suggest you find something safe to do instead of playing in his messages
She opened my message and started typing but deleted it and didn't respond
After a while Dre came back into the room with gio, who held a cup in one hand and a pack of fruit snacks in the other hand
"Fruit snack?" I looked at Dre as he sat gio on the bed before laying back down
"He wouldn't have saw 'em if he didn't go get juice"
We both looked at each other before looking at gio. Gio just laid back in the middle laying his head on Dre, one foot on me and the other against one of the pillows. He had his cup tucked under his arm while he stared at the tv which silently played Phineas and Ferb on Disney plus and ate his fruit snacks
"What juice you gave him?"
"That's water"
"Oh.." I simply responded before handing him his phone "and who is this texting you early in the morning?"
He held a confused look while grabbing the phone, looking at the message and scrolled up
"Damn who this is?"
"Dre don't play stupid"
"Ain nobody playing"
"So you just stupid? You not playing?"
He stopped to stare at me before looking at the phone again, clicking on her IG page, looking at her pictures
"Ohhh" he said out loud before sucking his teeth "why she texting me?"
"She said you saw her the other day. When and where was this"
"Mann I seen that girl at Walmart. It ain no sneaky shit going on so chill"
"I am chill. I'm not fussing"
"But you sound like you gotta attitude"
"I don't.. but I mean I'm not gonna be happy about some bit-... female texting my fiancé at three in the morning about seeing him the other day and tryina be funny with the wifey part"
"I ran into that girl at Walmart and I ain even speak to her. Why she messaged me, ion know"
"Well ion like no hoe tryina be funny. And she lucky I only said that and didnt really go off like I want to. Now if she text you back and get smart then I will"
"I just blocked her. Is that better?"
"Blocking really don't do shit Dre. These hoes be bold in real life and I said I was done fighting with females. But ima have to show em something cause people getting too comfortable being disrespectful"
"Ion need you fighting"
"And your son don't need fruit snack but he got em"
Dre shook his head "that's two different things"
"Is it really though. And he better get in line too when I line all my opps up to fight since he wanna be disrespectful too"
"My son ain being disrespectful" Dre defended him
I looked at my arm where Gio's foot was resting. I pushed his foot off of me and he cut his eyes at me before putting it back
"But forreal Dre. That girl better chill out cause I really will kill her, dismember her body and freeze her parts"
Both Dre and gio looked at me. Dre mostly held a look of concern
"You need to stop watching them shows"
"And your lil girlfriends need to stop texting you at three in the morning. Then she gonna put wifey with quotations. I am THE WIFE. Tryina be funny and her wig look like that"
"Everybody already know what you is and that ain my girlfriend. Chill"
"I am chill. Real chill actually."
Gio sat up, looking at Dre before sneezing
"What the hell" Dre said out loud while moving gio off of him and got up quickly, wiping his face
Meanwhile gio was wiping his nose with snot rubbed all over his face
"Ain no way this nigga sneezed all in my face just now"
"It was an accident" I defended my baby, grabbing the box of tissue from beside the bed and grabbed a couple of pieces to wipe Gio's nose and face
Of course he didn't like nobody playing with his face so I had to grab his face to clean his nose while Dre went to the bathroom still talking shit
"If I get sick ima whoop somebody ass" I could hear dre say from the bathroom
"You'll probably get sick regardless. You gotta suck baby in the same bed as you"
After I finished cleaning his nose I sat him on my lap and laid him against me, giving him his cup. Gio rubbed his eyes and yawned
"My poor baby. I need you to feel better"
"Ima need him to keep his damn germs to himself"
"Shut up dre" I spoke loud enough for him to hear me from the bathroom
Eventually he came back out looking at me and Gio. Dre got back in the bed still looking at my son
"Don't be looking at my son like that"
"Let yo son sneeze in yo face then"
"But he didn't" I looked down at gio seeing his eyes closed but I knew he wasn't sleep yet "... hey, did y'all find out anything about Lea's ex?"
"Nah. He probably ran off somewhere. And we found out he was fuckin with that weird ass girl"
"Maggie?"
"Yeah. And from what I heard she left the city too."
"Probably with him. I still can't stand that hoe. Always talkin bout me but she built like a box Chevy"
Dre chuckled a little, shaking his head "I can't stand that bitch man.. never have and never will. I'm tryina figure out how she still alive"
"The world my never know baby. But I know I can't stand her, or her cousin"
Dre gave me a side eye "her cousin probably know where she at"
"Probably do" I answered "I'm glad I ain tell her none of my business. She would've been telling that girl everything then my business would've been everywhere"
"You don't need to be telling nobody yo business"
"Including you?"
Dre sucked his teeth
"You said it Deandre" I shrugged"but anyways, I hope y'all find him because what he did to Lea was wrong as hell."
"Darius ain letting this slide. Trust me. Y'all might not hear or see nothing but just know that nigga been doing shit. Darius don't play about his people"
"Well that's good. But he need to be safe. ALL of y'all. Cause first of all we got a wedding REAL SOON. So y'all need to be nowhere else but there"
"You ain even gotta worry bout none of that"
"Forreal dre. Cause not only that, we got kids. ALL of y'all got kids now. And these kids need their daddies"
"I know. That's why I been chillin out but I just gotta have my brother back on this one cause Lea my family"
"I know. I just need y'all to be careful. I don't wanna do this thing called life without you"
"You won't have to"
"...especially with these two kids of yours, who gone watch 'em?"
"See you know how to ruin a good moment" Dre said to me while jokingly hitting me on my arm. I laughed
"I'm just saying."
"You gone watch 'em"
"Ion know about all that. They act like you. That's a lot of Dre for one person to deal with"
"Nah. Gio act like you and Gigi starting to act like her aunt. Ima have to keep her from emoni crazy ass"
"Now you know that ain happening. She love her auntie and her aunt love her"
"And they both love to give me a damn headache. You too"
"Whatever dre" I looked down at gio and say he was now sleep. His cup was slipping out of his hand so I grabbed it and handed it to dre so he could sit it off of the bed and I laid gio in the middle of us. He rolled over on his stomach and stretched his arms out, kicking one of his legs out before falling back asleep
"I need to wash his hair but I can't now. I'm kinda glad though cause I'm go through hell getting him to let me do his hair"
"He need it cut"
"You don't think he'll look weird with a haircut. My baby got a lil peanut head" I asked while touching his hair
"No he ain gone look weird. He ain gettin no bald cut"
I poked out my bottom lip "my baby gonna look like a big boy with his hair cut"
"You better not start crying"
I shook my head "I'm not.. yet"
"It's just a lil haircut"
"A big haircut. Let's not underestimate the transformation of a haircut"
"Now you exaggerating"
"I'm not. I wish I had a picture of you without your hair cut but I don't think I've seen you miss an appointment to get your haircut yet. And we've been together for 4 years. You must be real rough without a haircut and you don't want me to see"
"Cause ion wanna walk around lookin like shit?" Dre asked with a chuckle
"That's cute. But I need to see you lookin rough at least once. You've seen me look rough plenty of times"
"You still don't even be looking rough forreal."
"When I had gio.. don't lie"
"You was in labor"
"I wasn't in labor the first couple of months of his life. I looked like Gloria off of Madagascar"
"Chilll.. no you did not"
"Yes I did but it's okay now. I realized it's not that bad"
"Cause you didn't look bad"
"...meanwhile now I look like squidward shen he ate all them Krabby patties"
"Ana shut yo ass up. No the hell you don't" Dre said while laughing
"Yes I do. You see my thighs. I got thick. I slap these things together and I might start an earthquake"
"You always saying some dumb shit man" Dre said while he was still laughing
"Forreal" I told him while getting out of the bed, pulling down on the shorts I wore "look. My shorts just disappeared up my ass and thighs"
"You might as well go ahead and take em off then. I'll go put gio back in his bed"
"Nope. My baby need me tonight"
"He need to get his sick ass in his own bed"
"Leave my baby alone"
"Ima leave him alone.. leave his ass in the bed and meet you in the bathroom"
"Bye Dre.. I'm locking the door" I laughed while going to the bathroom
