I DO!!

Onika

"SJ and Zariah, what are we even doing hea." I ask them as Julius, Shawn Jr., Zariah and I walk around The Mall.

"To see Santa Clause, duh!" Shawn Jr. and Zariah yell out to me in a duh tone at the same time.

Don't even get me wrong, I love The Mall, cause The Mall is basically my second home, but I wanna be in my actual home, laying in my bed and relaxing, while pigging out on my favorite snacks and food, while watching Christmas Movies.

"Well, y'all don't need to see him again, cause y'all already saw and took pictures with him, when y'all came hea with y'all's Daddy and Mommy." I tell them.

"I know we did Auntie, but we gotta tell Santa what we want again. Plus we gotta tell him more of what we want." Zariah says to me.

"Like, like how do you not know this chile." She adds as she gives me my signature look.

Zariah seriously be hanging out with me too damn much.

"Yeah, exactly. We gotta make sure Santa Clause knows what we want." Shawn Jr. says, agreeing with Zariah.

"Okay." Is all I say.

I'm not finna argue with these two.

"Plus, we heard from a really great source that they're replacing Santa Clause with a black man, so Black Santa Clause!" Zariah tells me as she genuinely smiles.

Oooooop okay then. It's about damn time that there's gonna be a Black Santa Clause in The Mall.

I mean they really should have been had a Black Santa Clause a long ass time ago, but now I'm happy that they finally have one now, cause Shawn Jr. and Zariah finally get to see first hand and experience a Santa Clause that's their same exact Race.

"YAYHEEY!" Shawn Jr. and Zariah yell out at the same time in excitement.

I smile as I look down at Shawn Jr. and Zariah's faces, they're just so adorable and so cute being all excited and happy.

"I honestly knew that Santa Clause was really black, cause like these white people just really wanted to say and force a White Santa Clause on us, like they literally do with every single thang else chile." Zariah says as she lightly shakes her head.

Okay Zariah made some heavy points. She spilled Holy Water and the whole Holy Bible right there.

"Exactly. Preach ZarZar." Shawn Jr. says to her as he gives her a high five.

I just continue listening to Shawn Jr. and Zariah go on and on and on and on about this Black Santa Clause that they can't wait to meet and talk to, while we finally make our way to the back of The Line.

And as we wait in this Line for it to move, I made Julius go get us some Cinnamon Pretzels and a Lemonade, cause I ain't even gonna strave me, my baby, my Nephew and my Niece all just to be waiting in The Line just to see some big fat round nigga with a beard and in a red suit.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

An hour later The Line still hasn't even moved yet, and honestly my patience is running thin.

Like I'm literally seconds away from walking around The Mall, to go shopping, cause I ain't supposed to be standing in just one place for too long, you know cause I'm pregnant and all.

Plus my babyboy or my babygirl has been kicking the absolute fuck outta me, like he or she is really impatient as fuck.

And I honestly don't even know why, cause he or she is in my belly, like he or she doesn't even have to stand and wait like me.
