Next Morning

I woke up and August wasn't next to me neither was Baby AJ. I heard August in the bathroom so I got up and stood by the door. He didn't realize I was standing there but he was giving the baby a bath. "You're going to be a big brother soon. I know you don't understand shit I'm saying but you are a blessing. The smile you put on mommy's face and how happy you make her even tho your background of where you come from. She loves you and she's always going to make sure you know. You going to make me and mommy proud one day. I already know it and even your little sister. We still haven't even came up with a name for her. What name you think goes best? You don't have nothing, dang. I thought you was going to help me out son." I started laughing and he turned around.

"Why you laughing? We need a name before she gets here." he said taking out AJ. I kissed his little forehead "I just can't get over how tiny babies are. How could someone look at a baby and want to hurt them." I said smiling at AJ. "The ugly ones I could understand." August said. I slapped his arm "That's not funny. It's still a baby." I said and he laughed. He laid AJ on the bed and starting drying him off. Kaila came in the room with Kelly and Chris.

"Goodmorning." Kaila said. "Wassup gang." Chris said laying on the bed. "Look at him." Kelly said talking about AJ. "I am so in love with this little boy." Kaila said rubbing his little hand. "Watch this." I said and played with his toes. He started laughing "Ohh my god." Kelly said smiling. "He got dimples." Kaila said. "They are the cutest little thing." I said. We all looked at baby AJ "He is a blessing." Kelly said. I looked at her and seen a sad look on her face.

Kelly has always wanted kids but because she with Chris and he just had Royalty, she has to wait longer to have a baby. Which I can see it is breaking her slowly. A bodyguard appeared in the door way "Sir I have something to show you. Both of you." He said looking at Chris and August. August looked at me and then him and Chris followed the bodyguard downstairs. "What you think that was about?" Kaila said. "Nothing good." Kelly said.

I finished putting lotion on baby AJ and put clothes on him. "So Kelly, we all saw the look you gave when you said AJ was a blessing. Wassup?" Kaila said. We all sat on the bed "I just really want a baby but I feel like Chris is not going to want one for awhile because he has Royalty. Like I love that little girl as if she was mine but I want one that is mines and has my blood running through his or her veins. I just don't know how long I can wait." she said then a tear fell from her eye.

"Have you talked to him?" I asked. "No because I don't want to hear the truth. I know he's not ready." Kelly said. "I feel like you should talk to him because you never know what he thinking or what he is okay with." I said. She nodded and wiped her face. "I think he might say wait a year then he will be ready for another." Kaila said. "Or maybe you trap him." I said and we all started laughing. "But nahh fr tho, my brother loves you and we all see it. He don't want to lose you and over something like this. Talk to him and see where his head is at. Communication is key Kel." I said.

"You right. I'll talk to him after this whole thing. I don't want to bring a baby into this." Kelly said and then covered her mouth. "Girl you good. That bitch know better than to play with my babies. I'll really will kill a bitch about them." I said. I finished dressing Baby AJ then August walked back in the room. We looked at him "Where's Chris?" I asked. "Asia went after Kayla and she trashed your store. She ripped up the pictures. Stole all the clothes and took the ipads. The store is empty." August said. I felt my face getting hot "Calm down Lo." Kaila said.

"NO IM TIRED OF SITTING HERE WHILE THIS BITCH IS DOING RECKLESS SHIT. I'M GOING TO HANDLE THIS AND EITHER YOU GOING TO BE WITH ME OR NOT. BUT I'M NOT SITTING HERE NO FUCKING LONGER." I yelled and then walked into my closet. I put on black sweatpants with a black tank top and black air forces. I wrapped my hair in a bun and put on my black Nike headband. I walked out the closet and Kaila was holding AJ. She walked over to me "Tell mommy to chill out." Kaila said holding him in my face.

He started smiling and all I could do was smile back. I took him out her hands "I'm sorry I yelled like that. I'm just angry, you'll understand when you get older." I said and kissed him. "Love dont go. Your pregnant and you also have AJ to look out for. Also me. I got Chris and Dad but I need you too." Kaila said. "I'll go." Kelly said. "I can't let you do that." I said. "Your pregnant, I got it." Kelly said. I smiled "Thank you." I said. We all left my room and headed downstairs.

BOOM BOOM BOOM

We hear gunshots from outside "Get down" My dad yells coming from out back. All of us got on the floor until we didn't hear anything. AJ started crying because of the loud noise. I started to rock him "I'll make him a bottle." Kaila said. My dad walked outside "Let me take him." Kelly said taking AJ from me. "LOURDES CALL 911." I heard my Dad yell from outside. "What's going on?" I yelled back going to grab my phone. Mama Sheila goes to the door "NOOOOO." she yells running outside. I finally grab my phone and head to the door to see what is going on. I couldn't believe my eyes.
