"Didi," Kaari whispers.

"Hmm?" I hum as I shuffle around in bed.

"Didi, wake up," She pokes me.

"Give me five more minutes Kaari," I mumble.

"Daddy said he gave you an extra hour," Kaari says making me groan. I open my eyes to see Kaari and Kash sitting in front of me.

"Morning lil bit," I say once I've rubbed my eyes. I sit up against the headboard and Kaari sits in my lap while Kash gets in my face and tries licking me.

"Morning to you too Kash," I say while showing him some love.

"Happy birthday Didi," She smiles and Kash barks right after.

I smile, "Thank you munchkin," I say while squeezing her cheeks making her giggle.

"You woke her up yet Kaari?" Ja asks as he walks into the room.

"Mhm, me and Kash woke her up," Kaari says while getting off my lap and Kash follows right behind her. As you can tell, wherever Kaari goes, Kash goes.

"Hey mama," Ja greets as I get out of bed and start stretching.

"Morning bubs," I say as he walks up to me for a kiss.

"Aht, I didn't brush my teeth yet," I say while pushing him away from me.

"Girl Ion care," He says before pulling me to him and placing a quick kiss on my lips.

"Happy birthday mama," He says.

"Thank you bubs," I smile

"When you done brushing ya teeth and shit, come to the kitchen," He says and I give him an okay before walking into the bathroom. I pee before washing my hands and brushing my teeth. I do my morning skincare routine then walk back into the bedroom and grab my phone off the charger. I grinned as I saw the multiple birthday messages on my phone. While answering some of them I make my way downstairs and into the kitchen as Ja instructed.

"Ouu it smells good down here, what did you buy?" I question as I step into the kitchen.

"See that's where you got shit wrong. I made this," Ja says while patting his chest.

I chuckle, "Oh my bad baby, what did you make?" I ask as I take a seat at the island.

"French toast, eggs, and sausage. With a side of strawberries," He says while placing the plate in front of me.

I smile, "This looks good bubs," I say.

"I told you ya boy could cook," He says while leaning on the island across from me. I take a bite out of the french toast and I raise my eyebrows as a chew.

"You fuck wit it?" He asks and I nod.

"Mhm, this is good. Ima need you to start cooking more often," I said causing him to make a face.

"Ion know bout all that," He says as we both chuckle. After I finish eating we go into the living room.

"Before you go to your appointments I wanted to give you some of your gifts," Ja announces.

"Some of my gifts?" I question and he nods.

"How much did you buy me?" I continue.

"Don't worry bout that, you know I have to spoil you," He says just as Kaari comes into the living room holding a stack of Apple products. She places them on my lap before running off.
