OMNISCIENT POV
SUNDAY. FEBRUARY 10, 2019.
——————————
Erica, Kierra and Zaya were all awake, waking down the hall to the room Janet slept in. Though it was early, Zaya was excited to go to church. Opening the door, slowly, they all peeped inside and saw Janet sleeping peacefully with her back turned to them.
Closing the door, Erica looked down at the little girl. "Do you wanna go wake her up?" She asks.
Zaya nodded her head and bounced up and down. Kierra and Erica smiled, letting her run into the room and watched her climb up on the bed. "Mommy J! You have to get up! We have to sing to Jesus, today!" She exclaims, bouncing up and down near Janet's body. The woman began tossing and turning, hearing the little voice.
Zaya kept jumping on the bed as Janet woke up out of her slumber. When the little girl saw Janet's eyes open, she jumped on top of her and hugged her. "Good morning, pumpkin,"
"Morning, Mommy J.." She clung onto Janet's neck as she got out of bed, walking towards the door.
Laying her eyes on Erica and Kierra, she squinted. "Which one of you put her up to it?"
They both pointed at one another. Janet pursed her lips and shook her head, walking down the stairs with the child in her arms. The two followed after her, walking into the kitchen.
"What's for breakfast, Zaya?" Kierra asked.
"Sausage and pancakes!"
"Mm, that sounds delicious.." Janet said as she put Zaya down, washing her hands.
"What are you doing?" Erica asks, watching as Janet grabbed a pan from the cabinet.
"I'm about to help you guys with breakfast.."
Kierra took it from her, washing it out as Erica grabbed her hand, leading her out of the kitchen. "We got this. You go upstairs and get yourself ready for church,"
"But—" She stopped her sentence when Erica gave her a look.
Janet rolled her eyes and began to walk away. Erica reached out and smacked her ass, causing her to jump and rub her backside. "Keep rolling those eyes and watch how bad I cut that ass, Damita!" She shouted as Janet ran back up the stairs.
When she walked back into the room, she waited until she closed the door to roll her eyes again. She became a little like a brat whenever Erica and Kierra told her no to certain things. Going into the closet, she pulled out one of her all black pants suit with a white Cami to go underneath.
Whine she began ironing, Zaya walked back into the room and climbed up on the bed. Janet looked at her and watched as turned the TV on, clicking through channels until she got to her cartoons. The woman smiled and shook her head, ironing her outfit. When she finished, she took out the shoulders pads from the blazer and tossed them.
Soon, her phone started ringing. Zaya leaned up and looked back at the phone and then at Janet, as a way of telling her that it was too loud.
The woman surrendered her hands and went over to her phone. "I'm sorry, Ms. Diva," She laughed, putting the phone on silent. The little girl just smiled, facing the TV.
Janet picked up her phone and went to see who called. When she saw that it was Dwayne, she smacked her own thigh and sighed, through her nose.
Calling him back, he picked up immediately and sounded out of breath. "Hey, baby.."
She laid the outfit on the bed, looking for a pair of heels. "What'd you call for?"
"To let you know that I might be a little late to morning service. I have something important that I need to take care of.." He said and Janet stayed quiet.
