ANT POV

Saturday was a good day.

I came home. Saw my family. Took my daughter out. Came back, dropped my kids off to Tyler's house then went back to Cameron's apartment. We found out he was pregnant, I gave him his bracelet, then we ended the night by doing what we do best. I didn't smoke, but I was cool. I was too distracted to notice that much.

But I know by now to not get too comfortable when things seem too good. It's only 1pm and already, things isn't looking too good for this experiment. I woke up to my phone being blown up by Rue, asking me what time today I'll be back in Virginia, which makes no sense because I told specifically her that I'd be gone for the weekend. Now, she's going on about how I'm trying to take advantage of her and that she's gonna show me what happens when I try to play her. Why would I be back today when I had to work on Saturday, left on Saturday, just to be back before Sunday? I even explained to her that I don't work during the day so why the fuck is she worried about where I'm at. I told her I'll be back Monday, and I'm not changing it just because her fucking dementia is kicking in. I told that bitch once, I'm not bout to do it again.

On top of that, now Zaniyah is trying to sit here and tell me about some pregnancy that I really can't wrap my mind around.

"Who's pregnant?" I ask, frowning in confusion. Everybody's here in their living room right now. Cam, My kids, Tyler, Zaniyah, and me. Zaniyah is trying to tell me something about pregnancy, but I wasn't listening. Cameron hasn't told them he's pregnant yet, so I'm wondering if they peeped the same shit I did.

"Me, Ant. I'm pregnant." ZaZa repeats in frustration. Oh.

"How?" I ask.

She sighs. "Nigga how everybody else gets pregnant, what do you mean how?"

What? "Clearly. But who you pregnant by?" She thought she could just pop up and say she's pregnant and get an okay congratulations? If she in a relationship, I didn't know that. Or if not, okay. But I rather I got some type of 'I met somebody' story, and then after that she follow up with she's pregnant. I haven't heard nothing about her dating nobody.

"Does it matter? I'm just letting you know I'm pregnant. That's it." She answers defensively. I haven't had to go in brother mode for a while because my sister is an adult. And I got my own shit to worry about. But all I can see right now is a irresponsible ass kid who's trying to brush past shit that has no business being brushed pass. And if I have to ask my kids to leave so they don't gotta see me be stern with they aunt like she a child, then I'm going to get upset. How she gonna tell me she's pregnant but leave things out?

"Zaniyah. Try again." I say simply. She got one more chance. She uses her chance up to start crying and not say anything at all. "Don't bring shit up if you gonna start crying when I ask you questions." I say bluntly. That makes no sense. She shoulda kept it to herself longer if she wasn't ready for a simple 'by who' question. Unless it's deeper than that, and it was against her will. But then I don't understand why she would say something like that with my kids around.
