"I've been trying to figure out if this child wants a baby shower for months now... I swear my kids funny acting," Renae said to Ary as they walked through King's vegan market.

"I don't think she does, at least when she was with me, the topic never came up," Ary replied then laughed when Renae twisted her mouth. "What? You barely had showers for your pregnancies."

"I was young and had other stuff on my mind."

"Well... so does Ava and the rest of your kids," Ary reminded.

Renae sucked her teeth, "You just love tryna make sense of things huh? Your free spirited behind."

Ary smirked, "And you just love being extra, miss mama bear gotta have control of her cubs."

Renae narrowed her eyes at Ary before the pair busted out laughing, "You get on my nerves, move," she nudged Ary out the way and picked up a pomegranate.

"Don't start nothing up in your husband's store, they gon' have to call SWAT to pull us apart," Ary smirked.

Renae tilted her head and squinted, "Your confidence is cute."

"Renae bye!" Ary laughed, shoving her, "Yo ass a different type of being any-damn-way. Turn into the damn hulk and Wonder woman."

Renae tried not to laugh but this was the third time Ary has told her that. "You know what?" She chuckled, "get away from me, ma'am!"

"Pleasure," grinning, Ary playfully mushed her before disappearing around the corner.

"Her ass been around me too damn long," Renae mumbled to herself as she placed some bananas and mangoes in a bag before heading down the aisle. "Bougie mama?"

Ary's laughter could be heard from the other side of the aisle, "I know you did not call me that!" She laughed harder.

"I sure did," Renae snickered, meeting her at the end of the cracker aisle, "I got a question."

Ary squinted, "I may have an answer."

Renae mocked her then tucked her arms, "What is Dajon up to?"

Ary's expression went dull, "What you mean?"

"I haven't heard from him in a few days and every time I try to catch him in the morning, he's stand-offish."

Ary frowned, "I'm lost."

"So am I," she sighed, "I'm hoping he didn't get himself into anything cause of Sy."

Ary leaned against her cart and furrowed her brows, "I thought you said that was handled?"

"I think it is... I don't know, she's been acting a lil off with King and I... I asked about her girlfriend and she acted as if she ain't hear me."

Ary was confused, this wasn't the Assyria she hung out with. "You sure? Maybe she's just nervous... I mean she is dating a woman... something I'm sure neither of you expected."
