Ghetto Tendencies REMAKE

64: {MY WORLD}

48th sunday
SYLAS BLUE BLUES - 17

The front door to my father's house opened up. I looked up from my phone, Sabic walked in with a baby to his hip. I watched him as he went up the stairs.

I scratched in my hair, wondering what the hell he had going on. After a few minutes he came back down and stood by the door. He eyed around for something.

"She mine, you seen my charger around here?" He sought my confusion then asked casually.

My mouth hung open, looking at Sabic holding his baby to his hip. I just couldn't believe it, that baby he sent me was his? I would've never thought.

"Dada." She clinched onto his neck and kicked her little feet. I was utterly confused of where this baby came from.

"Brosk?" I asked as he sat down on the couch, "yeah?" He turned to me casually.

"Who- what? You for real, that's ya daughter?" I needed reassurance, clarification, clarity...a path.

"Uhuh." He nodded cheerfully. "So I'm an uncle." Excitement started to rise over the confusion.

"Sholl is, say hi unc." He told the little baby, "ha un." She smiled at me, I couldn't even respond. I looked back and forth at her and Sabic.

He handed her to me, I held her back up as she sat on my lap and looked around innocently, she waved at me before covering her mouth.

I swirled my finger in the piece of her hair. I poked her cheek, it's like I gas to see if a huge was really. She titled her head at me like I was silly before slapping my chest. "Un cray." She told her dad.

"Finna snap a pic of y'all and tell Brook you got a daughter on a low." Sabic joked, however I thought it was a good idea, "do it." I lead it on.

"How old is she?" I questioned and he shrugged, "I think like...8 maybe nine months- nah nah- probably ten." He nodded looking confident in himself.

My head snapped at him like he was crazy, "figure out this little girl birthday man." I sighed.

"Brook said, "why it look like him?" Haaa she stupid." He cracked up. I grabbed his phone and facetimed her.

She picked up right away, "mama...?" The baby titled her head and grabbed the phone out my hand.

"Sy' what the- aww, hey baby. What's your name?" Brook grew a soft spot for "it."

"Say Alicia." Sabic rubbed her cheek. She babbled as I took the phone out of her hand.

"Naw don't act nice now, hating on me and mine before." I shook my head disappointingly. I was eager to see how she'd respond.

"Now Sy' don't even play with me. I'm right around the corner and will pull up. She better not be ya baby." Brook warned.

"Wait- you right around the corner? Pull up so you can meet her." I used her location to my advantage.

"Okay, only because she's adorable." She rolled her eyes and forced away her smile before hanging up.

"You and Brook need to have a kid for real, I wanna be an uncle too." Sabic suggested and my eyebrows furrowed.

"Let me get the ring first- let me get the ring first." I repeated just in case he didn't hear the first time. He gotta realize I'm not like him.

"How'd you feel? If you know, accidentally got her pregnant." He smirked at me suspiciously as Alicia laid back on my stomach and kicked up leg over her knee.
