Forbidden Love

Chaos (Ant)

After spending 45 minutes getting ready and getting my sister Cookie out the damn bathroom. We were all ready to head out to dinner at Isis and Naiyma's. When we got outside Kia's automatic thought was to go to Tony's car which pissed me off. She knows for a fact outside of our walls we are scoped by hawks A.K.A reporters they will write a story about anything and destroy my career. So to save me the headache and my publicist the large unnecessary work load. I walked to his car and said "HI, Yea your not riding with him get out." Very settle right? "How we going to be on a date and not ride with each other?"Kia asked with a slight slick tone.  I was gonna embarrass that ass but im proud to say i refrained. "Girl if you want to make it to 18 I'd advise you to get yo ass out this car." i said as serious as they come. "Ill see you there Kia." Tony said as kia got her ass out his car. I hopped in the front seat and had the thought to leave Kia here. "I dont know why you think i be playing with you. I will tell that nigga to take his ass home and take yo ass to Mickey Ds and leave you in the car. " i said seriously. This girl was getting outta hand. Cookie started to laugh knowing I'd do it to her twin real quick. "As i started driving i text  Nai to let her know Kia was bringing a guest and not to be afraid to grill his ass. She text back she would be happy too. We only lived 10 minutes away from them so it took me no time at all to get there. When we pulled up to the 2 story tan mini mansion with a 4 car garage that Nai and Isis live in. I used my garage key to park in the garage and left Tony to park in the driveway.

When we all got out the car i looked at the time 6:59 on the dot. I know it seems crazy but i try to be on time on all occasions. Especially when Isis asks i make it my business to give her anything she asked for. I unlocked the garage door to see Isis in the kitchen taking my apple crumble pie out the oven. It warmed my heart to know she made it when she could have said no. "Hey Ice! What you need me to do?" Cook asked  like she was really gonna do something.  " You can help me fry these eggplants and then you can put those tomatoes in the pot with the rest of the veggies" Isis said while stiring  potatoes. I wanted to help but i knew i would get kicked to the curb so i snuck a apple off the pie and made my way to the family room with Nai. As i walking  i saw Isis roll her eyes at  Kia and Tony. I could tell she was still upset about something that happen at my house. "Aye Tony come with me." I told him as i left the kitchen. Might as well leave them to hash they shit. When we got in the family room nai was talking to some family friends about Kaam coming by. Kaam is Isis's big sister she is 29 and always MIA. The last time we seen Kaam was at christmas and she only stayed for that day. Isis talks to her everyday though and sends all kinds of stuff to her.  So she is a good sister and daughter just never around. "Hey Ma! whats goody?" i said as i kissed her cheek. "Hey baby whats up? Who is this good looking young man?" She asked like she was feeling him. "Hi ma'am I'm Tony Kia's friend." he said in his polite white boy voice. " O  so your the young  nigga trying to sex my niece up?" She said. "Uh, No ma'am i am not! We are friends who kinda like each other but i would never disrespect her like that. I was taught to love an respect every woman i meet. I plan to do such with your niece as well." he  said. " Well i like what your mouth say." Nai said with a smile. I sat next to her on the couch put my arm around her neck and watched the basketball. "Got anything else you want me to ask em?" Nai whispered to me. "No. Thats all i needed to know. You already know imma have a camera on her at all times so ill know whats really up." I whispered back. Naiyma chuckled and when back to talking to everybody.  

When dinner was ready we all sat in the dinning room at the huge oak table. It doubled as a business table during the week. Isis threw down she made a feast tonight! She had everything from fried chicken to eggplant parm not to mention samosa's and red sauce. Mac& cheese with 7 cheeses, yams, corn bread and black bean casserole with turkey, and a who lotta desserts i couldn't wait to dig in. As we prayed Naiyma asked for me to say a few word to the family about thankfulness. Which was something that we as a family had got accustom to. Everytime we had family dinner she picked one of us kids to do the thankful speech. It was something my moms and  Naiyma came up with when we was growing up in the projects. It was to keep us from thinking we had less. I stood up and recited by heart. " Thanks is not just for the things we have but also for the people we are blessed with." As i said that i looked right at Isis." We are also blessed with every moment we have to make any mistake that we have made correct. We are also blessed with the chance to learn something new everyday. For all those things thankfulness is defined and summed up to being Family, Growth, and Love. This is our motto and the way we have made it through the struggle."I said. At the end everyone said AMEN and we started making plates. With 20 people at a table it was definately alot of laughing and chatter going on.  When we was good and in it our special guest decided to walk in. "Hey good people!! Man ma it smells so good in here!!!" She said as she ran to the head of the table ad kissed Naiyma. "Gosh baby its so good of you to come! Come on sit down and get you a plate of what your sister made." Naiyma said in an excited tone. " Wait momma i gotta go to get my guest...... My husband!"  Kaam said while holding up a huge ring on her wedding finger. "WHAT!!!! You got married without us?" Isis asked hurt in her eyes. "It was spare of the moment but i would  never have a ceremony without my maid of honor." Kaam told Isis while hugging and kissing her. "let me go get hm." Kaam walked to the front door to get her new found husband. " she been gone 8 months and now she's married. Help me Qiyya." Naiyma said praying to my moms Taqqiyya( Ta-kia). we all started giggling until she came back with him. I looked up and my heart dropped. "Mom this is my husband..." She started to say and Naiyma stood up. " LIke hell it is! Puda Get the fuck away from my daughter!!!" Naiyma yelled at my father. It sent a chill up my spine to know the man i havent seen since i was 14 was in my presents. Half of me wanted to get up and strangle him.  The other half wanted to run the hell away and cry, but i sat there froze. "O shit Naiyma i didnt know." Puda tried to say but Naiyma didnt care. "Momma how do you know my husband?" Kaam asked confused letting Puda's hand go. "Stop calling this bastard that!" Naiyma shouted. "He is our father." I finally found my voice. "What!! no he isnt!!" The twins said in unison. "Yes he is babies." Naiyma told them. Sad this had to be the way they found out. I got up and took my plate to the kitchen where i stayed. Minutes later my sisters, Isis, and Tony were walking in to the kitchen with their plates. I absolutely forgot he was here. i knew at that moment Kia wouldnt be seeing him again. She hates being embarrassed. "Everybody is going home. This sucks. we was gonna three different pies and one i made." Cookie said sadly. "Its okay cook i already ate a slice of each." I told her with a slight smile. "So we just not gonna talk about the fact our father is in the dinning room with my bestfriend's sister after 13 years!" Kia asked in tears. I wanted to tell her it was gonna be okay but i couldnt. So i just hugged her and kissed her forehead.
