"Bae where you at?!" I yell as I walk out of her bedroom.

"In the kitchen!" She yells back and I make my way into her kitchen. Dijah was making breakfast while listening to a Summer Walker song. Kaari was sitting at the island watching Coco Melon.

"Hi daddy," Kaari exclaims once she sees me.

"Hey Kaari," I smile before going to her and picking her up.

"I missed you," She says while laying her head on my shoulder.

"I missed you too lil bit," I say as I kiss her head. I sit her back in her seat and go over to Dijah.

"Morning baby," She greets as I wrap my arm around her shoulder.

"Wassup, why you ain't wake me up?" I ask.

"I tried waking you up but yo ass was knocked out, so I just let you sleep in," She says as she flips pieces of turkey bacon.

I chuckle, "Thank you, mama," I say before kissing my cheek.

"If youn give me a proper kiss nigga," She says and making me laugh.

"Yo aggressive ass," I say as I turn her head giving her a kiss.

"Me and Kaari already ate, she was saying how I cook better than you," She says while sticking her tongue out at me.

"Kaari, who cooks better Didi or me?" I ask turning my head in her direction.

She taps her chin, "Mmm... Didi," She declares.

"What I say? Don't be mad though, not everybody can be a good cook," Di shrugs making me suck my teeth.

"You haven't even tasted my cooking yet so you can't say if I'm a good cook or not," I say as I lean on the counter.

"I guess one of these days you're gonna have to cook something for me," She says and I nod.

"Bet," I say.

"We need to figure out what to do with your hair lil bit," I say as I take the scrunchie out of her hair. Kaari is sitting on my bathroom counter in front of the mirror with her hair all over the place. Kaari and I decided to have a little girls' day. Ja offered to drive us around and insisted on paying for whatever we wanted to do which I of course objected to but Ja payed me no mind.

"You want one puff or two?" I ask her as I grab a spray bottle and gel.

"Two," She says while holding up two fingers. I nod before grabbing the rat tail comb and parting her hair. Ja walks in and immediately starts looking in the mirror.

"I need a retwist," He says while playing with his dreads. Kaari and I hum and nod together even though I don't think she knows what a retwist is.

"Yeah, you definitely do," I make a yikes face. He mugs both of us.

"I know you not talking lil bit, youn got your hair done either," He says while poking her head.

"Didi is doing my hair so I'm gonna look cute," She shrugs.

"Period, don't let him play you munchkin," I say.

"And you, Ion be saying shit when yo hair is fucked up," He says making me straight face him.

"When is my hair ever fucked up?" I question and he looks at me knowingly.

"Ja, get yo nasty ass out my face," I say once I realize why he looked at me that way.
