Mari pov

It's been a couple months since I had the baby and I'm back home for a little bit. I go a job and I'm saving for an apartment. Most people like "why don't you ask you daddy or brother to buy it for you" well I told them I don't wanna live off them. If I need help ima ask but other then that. Xavier haven't been around since she was born. His rap career really takin off and I'm not gonna beg for him to be around. But anyway guess who got there license, that's right I diddd! But rn I'm about to get madi dressed and we're going to the mall with my uncle Trell cause he don't know how to spend money. A grown ass man don't know his to spend money. Smh.

A few minutes later we were dressed and waiting for him to come pick us up cause I ain't feel like driving today. Like 5 minutes later he came in

"Wassup niece where everybody at?" He asked

"At Dre house he having a party" I told him

"I didn't wanna go so I just stayed home" I also said

"So how you and Xavier doing? Y'all back together?" He asked picking up the baby bag and the car seat

"We ain't together he stopped answering my text and his rap career took off so" I said shrugging

"Can't raise a man" he said

We went to the car and got in and he buckled in madi and he started driving

"So where my cousins at?" I asked him

"Kacey and k3 and Draco gonna meet us at the mall the rest of them with there mamas" he said

A few minutes we pulled up to the mall and got out I was getting the stroller and somebody walked behind helping me take it out and it was a tall nigga wit dreads

"Thank you" I said giving a friendly smile

"You welcome shorty you to small to be lifting this heavy ass stroller" he said laughing a little

"But I was wondering if I can get your number" he said

"I have a daughter" I told him

"Ok that's fine I still want it" he said and I gave hime my number and he told me his name was Grayson

After that my uncle and cousins walked over

"Girl bring yo ass " k3 said

I rolled my eyes and walked to them pushing madi

"You don't need a boyfriend" kacey said

"Boy I'm 17 you not my daddy" I said mugging him

He rolled his eyes and we walked in the mall

"I'm going to the shoe store" I said and started walking as they followed behind me

I picked up Madi and walked around with her and one of the boys had the stroller

"You want these madi?" I asked her and she smiled

"You talking like she gonna respond" I heard behind me and turned around and it was the one and only

Xavier

"Fuck out my face wit ya lame ass" I spat

"Why I gotta be lame Mari?" He asked

"Cause you are you left my cousin with a baby BOTH of y'all made and we ain't see you in how long?" K3 said

"I've been busy" he said

"Not busy enough to read my messages. I've sent you a update every month from her first cold to her first asthma attack and everything but it's fuck us right? Keep it that way I don't want nothing to do with you unless it's about madi" I told him
