"Go toot, go toot," Lili cheered her nephew on as he danced to the music on the floor of her office.

He was going on five months, and was getting too big for his auntie to handle.

Mir smiled up at his TeeTee, so obsessed with her.

Lilac was babysitting for Jye and Kentrell while Jye was out of town doing a cheer competition and Kentrell was away on business.

"Ready to go, Toot?" Lilac asked him as she finished packing up.

Jamiri babbled back to her as Lilac put their jackets on and scooped him up.

"You said Chipotle? We can get some. Think yo mama a be mad if I give you some?" Lili asked her nephew seriously as she locked her office.

"That damn baby ain't say no Chipotle," Rima cackled as she closed down.

"Yes, he did. He know what he like," Lili laughed. "What you finna go do?"

"Goin' home. I was supposed to see my man his baby mama finna blow it though," Rima puffed out a breath.

"What she do now?"

"Girl, keep popping up when she know I'm over there trying to drop Kash off out of nowhere. Just a couple months ago he had to beg to see him. So, whatever, fuck it. I love Kash so it's not a big deal but because I'm there, which she knew before she came, she throw a fit and won't leave Kash with us. Start a argument and all. Like what a weird bitch."

Lili frowned up her face.

"Ew. She see you here to stay and trying to start shit. I know you told me Kash starting to get attached to you."

"Yess, he is. Bad and I never try to overstep and act like his mama but I care about him a lot. Now I feel like I gotta stop loving him as much so his mama don't get mad. But Ryan love the way I treat Kash."

"Don't treat Kash any differently he deserve the love you willing to give him just cause his mama jealous don't mean anything. Ryan is his parent too and she gonna have to woman up forreal cause don't she have a man?"
