"I swear to god you call me one more time ima flip the fuck out." I say in the phone to tre

"Bru everybody here and they not letting us in til you get here."

"I'm about to pull up sheesh." I say hanging up the phone and throwing it in my purse.
"Momma take Zenith on up there. Tre said people are already there."

"Okay baby chill out everything is gonna be fine."

"People been pissing me off all week."
I say running back up stairs to blend my concealer in. I had to get Zens cake and finish decorating the building for his 1st birthday. Jayla was supposed to help me but she wasn't answering the phone this morning. Which is making me run a little late. I hate being rushed. I put on my square neck tank top and light washed ripped jeans with my red sandals with a red lip for a pop of color. I brush my hair into a middle part slick back. With my gold hoops.

"Hey y'all" I say greeting everyone at the party

"You look so good!!" Jayla says she kissing my cheek.

"Thank you bae"

"Yo girl Bellamy is cool" she says with a devilish smirk

"Bitch you're funnyttt"

"Very funny."
"But im always team Malik so she can get the fuck" she says with an eye roll

"Girl I'm so done with relationships. Ima just take care of me and my son"

I begin mingling and talking to the guests.
"Oh shit." Benjamin says

"What?" I say turning around

My aunt mag walks in with a my dad following beside her.

I take a deep breath. "Bru ion got time for this shit." I say walking towards them.

"Aye aye look. This is not a place for drama. This is my son's first birthday. It's a bunch of people here and I'm not trynna be embarrassed, okay?"
"Y'all find y'all somewhere to sit and we can talk about everything else a later date."

"Why would there be drama sweetheart?" My dad says.

"It was a lot with aunt mag last time I saw her." I say

"Hmm she never told me anything... but I understand we can talk about this another time. I'm here to meet my grandson."

"Thank you." I say nodding my head. I begin greeting everyone. Everybody I invited was there plus a few extras I was really not expecting aunt mag to show up since our argument. I should tell Tre about all the shit she was talking cause he would have her ass outta here. But I'm not gonna be like that. I'm just gonna let it go.

The party was decorated so nice. My mom and jayla really did their thing. It was red, blue and,green with the pj mask cartoon people. It had some pregnancy pictures of me. A few of zen as a baby. It was just so cute. We all mingled and talked. Malik and Bellamy really stayed to themselves. So did aunt mag and my dad. Honestly I was fine with that. I just didn't want any drama. I stood beside zeniths high chairs while he played in his smash cake while a photographer took pictures. I put a little cake on his forehead. My mom joined me and got a few pictures. So did Galeno and his little family. And the rest of the guest that wanted pictures

"Tre get up there." My moms says to tre

"Uhhhh no no no." I say quietly shaking my head getting away from the pictures. I honestly didn't want to be in pictures with him. I stood beside my momma while tre and zen got a few pictures. Tres mom, tela, and trinity later joined in the pictures.
"You need to get your ass up there. Zeniths gonna wanna see his parents together in a picture."

I smack my lips. I go up there and get a few pictures. Tre grabs a handful of cake. " no no no" I say putting my hand above my face
He moves my hand a smashed cake in my face. "My makeup. My makeup. My makeup" Everyone laughs. I heard the camera flickering.. and camera flashes all on me. I couldn't do anything but stand there in shock. I laugh a little. Then grab some cake and smash it in tres face.

Later

"Tonight went so well." I say on the phone to Jayla

"I know right you and tre was so cute but I'm not fucking with it."

"Yea that's zeniths dad but I'll never fuck with him again."

"I totally understand.. but Gen I have something to tell you."

"What girl?"

"Go sit down."

I look at her big eyed "you scaring me." I say sitting down on my couch

We stare at each other. "I'm pregnant."

I look at her woth my mouth opened wide in shock. "Omg"
"What happened to hot girl summer??"

"I know I know. Me and Xavier been fucking Heavyyyy. He told me he pulled out."

"Niggas be trapping you"

"I believe I got trapped bitch." She says laughing a little

"You most definitely did."
"How you find out."

"I had been feeling down and hadn't had an appetite. I took a test as soon as I got home. You the first to know."

"Aww I love you jay bug!!! I hope it's a girl." I say poking out my bottom lip
"I'm so exciteddddd!!!"
