"Where were y'all?" My mom asked as soon as she opened her door. We haven't even got in the house yet and we were already questioned.
"My fault ma. We had something to do" Nique answered.
I would've expected her to her to hug me since it was my day but she just hugged Nique and kissed her forehead.
"Come on in" she grabbed my hand and led me into the living room with Nique behind me.
"Odell guess what?"
"What?"
"Nique called me ma" she said in a singy song voice.
"Oh word" my dad jumped in.
"Nique you must've put a ring on it?" Odell questioned her jokingly.
"Nah not yet"
I blushed.
"I know she didn't cause she didn't ask me for my blessing" my dad said
"Or me" Jasun jumped in.
"Or me" my dukes said.
"Chill chill y'all. Jasun you know you gonna be the last person i come to. Just cause I fuck- like you the most"
"Cause you save the best for last" Jasun said
"Duh. And y'all know I'm not gonna ask for her hand in marriage without talking to y'all first"
A couple of mhm hmm went around the room.
"Y'all saying she's gonna ask y'all but what if I propose first and ask her mom"
"But youre not though" Nique said kissing my forehead.
"Mhm who knows. Anyways where's the food?"
"Y'all came just in time cause we was going to eat without y'all"
I laughed and went towards the kitchen.
"Unt unt Genesis. I know this your party but kids eat first. Go get the kids from the back yard".
I rolled my eyes playfully and went to get the kids.
"Aiyell" I called out calling for my favorite cousin.
"Genii".
I picked her up and put her on my hip and went into the kitchen to make her plate with the rest of the kids infront of me.
"Geni I told you kids eat first"
"Ma im fixing yelli's plate"
"Fair enough" she laughed out.
"Tonya you know they be attached to the hip. As if that's her baby"
"She is" i told my aunt Reny. You could tell Aiyelle was aunt Reny's daughter.
They both have thee prettiest eyes and the sweetest attitude. I love them.
I gripped her on my hip as we made our way over to the table.
Sitting her on my lap i rearranged her and fed her some rice.
"Keep her then"
"I will" I said back getting the rice off of yelli's face.
"You will forreal?"
"For the night. Yeah"
"We'll keep Aman too" Nique said.
She has a real addiction to aman. Like she loves him so much like he's ours forreal.
"Forreal?"
We both nodded.
