You Vs. Them - 19

Two weeks later....

I went back home, not to DeAngelo, but, to my mother house. I had to start back at square one and this is where I need to be right now, around my family. They irritate the fuck out of me sometimes, but, I loved them a whole bunch. I really do, I just hate when they treat me like a baby, I know I'm the youngest of everyone, but still... stop it.

I was in the living room watching Belair daughter, Abel. She was playing with Anastasia at the moment, they were too cute. Abel was two years old, her birthday was coming up right after Anastasia birthday.

I seen Mark walk in and I looked at him, he took it upon himself to take a seat next to me, "No Mark, don't try asking me again do I want to move back there." I said before he could even begin talking.

"Why not?" He asked.

"How many times I have to keep telling you I don't want people doing things I could do for myself." I said to him, "Let me buy my own things, I kept the car you and ma got me. Let me at least get my first apartment myself." I said as I looked away from the kids and looked at him.

"Baby... I understand that, but-" He said, I stopped him.

"But, I'm back home with family now Mark. You don't have to worry about me out there with Anastasia anymore, I'm here with her." I said.

"Aight, I'm gon' leave you alone." He said as he gave me a smile.

"Thank you, nigga." I said as I turned my attention back on the girls.

"So how you and Trey been?" He asked.

"Mind your business." I said while chuckling.

"I'm gon' leave that alone to then." He said.

"Yeah, but, I have seen him since the accident happened." I said.

"That's good, but, how you and Dee been?" He asked me.

"We just need this space, maybe we can get back together. Maybe not, I don't know." I shrugged my shoulders, "You can chill on relationships right now Baby." He said to and I just nodded my head.

I heard the front door open and close, Belair walked into the living room smiling from ear to ear. "Mommmmmyyyyyy!!" Abel yelled, she ran to Belair.

"Hey big girl, had fun with auntie RoRo?" Belair asked her, Abel just nodded her head as she stuck her finger in her mouth when Belair picked her up.

"What's up Belle." Mark said, "Hey, what y'all finna get into tonight?" Belair asked, "Nothing much, I might get Trey to get Anastasia for the night. I need a damn break." I said as I picked Anastasia up when she crawled to me.

"I didn't even realize big baby just crawled to you." Mark said.

"Yeah, her ass get into every damn thing." I said, I kissed Anastasia on her cheek.

"Belair, so what were you saying about tonight?" I asked her.

"I wanted to go out." She said as she put Abel down.

"I'm down." I said.

"Bet. Get ready and I'll pick you up tonight." She said.

"Aight." I said.

"Oh yeah, ma was looking fa you Belle." I said before she turned around to leave, "Shit. Thanks for telling me." She said before she walked upstairs.

****************

I was getting ready waiting for Trey to come to pick up Anastasia up, she was fast asleep so he doesn't have to do much tonight. I was applying my lipstick on my lips as I heard my room door open, I looked to see it was Trey. He came in and closed the door, "She's on the bed, take her. Goodbye." I said, "Damn, for real? No hug or nothing?" He chuckled, I turned to face him.
