Small thuds sounded on Jemima's bedroom window causing her to stir in her sleep. Ignoring it, she turned to the other side with her cover over her head and almost fell back into her sleep.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
She wined trying to cover her ears but the sound continued. Sleepily, she rose from her bed and opened her curtain a little in the corner.
"You've got to be fucking kidding me", she rasped as she saw the man pick up another stone. Her window creaked up quietly as it was lifted up.
He was getting ready to throw another rock and before he could see Jemima he quickly launched it. "Ow!", She lifted her hand to rub her forehead where she got hit.
"Oh shit. My bad!", his voice came out slightly faint due to their distance. With him, he had a suitcase and a small duffel bag. "Let me in ma".
He watched her move from the window and saw the hallway lights turn on downstairs. The door opened and he shut it close after he walked in with his bags.
"You know what time it is?", she said hoarsely as he unzipped his jacket under his coat. "I just landed 'bout 20 minutes ago".
"Who you planning on staying with 'cause I know it's not in this already packed house", she muffled against his chest as he brought her into his arms. "I'm sleeping right in yo' bed".
"Your mama know you here?". He walked behind her up the stairs as they made their way to the bedroom. "Na. I'a go in the morning. Remember you coming with me and her to the sto'". Not really listening to him she mumbled a quick yeah and fell into her bed as she came next to it.
"I'm gon' take a shower okay?", he said watching her snuggle up under the sheets. She hummed in response and almost instantly fell unconscious as her head touched her pillow.

"Von! Put that down!", Tasha yelled at her son as he fooled around in home depot. He laughed at her annoyance and walked up behind her staring at his mom and, in his head, girlfriend, walking beside each other, holding a conversation.
"Mama you sure you don't wanna look in IKEA", Jemima followed the women as she browsed along the shelves of kitchen appliances. "I saw one I liked in here online but we might have to make a trip if i'on like it in person".
The man walked in between the shorter two women, wrapping his arms around their shoulders, "And who finna drive you all the way there?". "You", they both said as he stared at Jemima on his right side.
"You ganging up on me wit' ha' lil folks". Tasha pulled higher up on his ear, making sure she didn't rip out his diamond ear stud sitting on his lobe, "Hell yeah she is".
