There's this psychiatrist, a lady named Frances Chris Walson. She has a theory about the black man in America. She says because of the system of racism in this country, the black man is meant to think of himself as a baby. A not yet fully formed being, who has not yet realized his full potential. To support her claim, she offers the following: First off, what does a black man call his woman? Mama. Secondly, what does a black man call his closest acquaintances? His boys. And finally, what does a black man call his place of residence? The crib....

It's been about a week,and I'm enjoyin' every bit of her at the crib.I want her to stay but she knows she don't wanna leave for Cali.I know niggahs try to steal her but that's my Boo boo.Ant nothin' could ever change that.She ant goin' nowhere even if we ant together!

"Stay for anotha week."

"I can't!I got-"

"Nothin' else to do!I hardly see you and my son anymore-"

"Roc!That's not my choice!You could have been left for Cali or moved back!"She yelled in my arms.

"So what?!I could get killed and you could still have to struggle with bein' alone!"

When she found out we were havin' Jewelz,her moms kicked her out and my mom let her stay with us.I guess when I left about a couple months after Jewelz's first birthday she got her own place,workin' a lot like usual.I swear I never want her to work when I become a first draft pick NFL football player.

"What the hell is that's suppose to mean."She moved aside of me,trying her hardness not to cry.

"I meant-"

Versace started playing.I grabbed my phone from behind as she left slammin' my door.

"Unique,Don't be slammin' my damn doors!"I yelled answerin' Ray. "What upp."

"Ayyye Roc,what up."OC chuckled.

"Nothing,just was chillin' wit my girl."

"I see that,naw what up Ray!I'm workin'."

"Fareal what?!"

"I.....I said it."He stuttered while whispering the whole time,soundin' like a lil bitch.

"What the fuck you talkin' bout,you sound like a-"I laughed.

"I told Chelsea I love her!"

"Ahhhh got dam-Ray!What the fuck is wrong with you?!"

"Real niggah shit,you goin' to hell fareal."OC added.

"It just slipped out!She came over like we normally do after school and her boyfriend started cursin' her out while I was doin' my thing."

"Wait,where was Shay?"I asked.

"She was at school!"

"Alright continue."I sighed.

"So she started cryin' tellin' me how he beats the shit out of her.Showin' me like all of her bruises and shit."

"Damn..who the hell is this nigga?"OC asked.

"Cuz I still don't know but when I find that nigga...wooo."

"Niggah calm down she ant even you main girl."I pointed.

Me and O chuckled as I got up walkin' downstairs smellin' bacon.

"And?"Ray snapped.

"You keep playin' you gon' be F'd up."I reminded.

Niq was cookin' in the kitchen with Catt feedin' Jewelz at the table.I kissed his head goin' into the kitchen coming behind Niq.

"Don't touch me,I'm cookin'."She snapped.
