"KING!" Elisa screamed as if that was the only person she had seen within the group as they walked in. They knew the two were a thing but the least she could have spoken to the rest of them. It also didn't help that Paz was right behind her with a frown while King smiled back.
"Damn, I feel heartbroken. Hello to you too, Elisa... oh, how I feel like we are about to see more of you. Paz, don't tell us you're about to throw your beautiful daughter off on our cousin because he knocked her up. Are you?"
"It's the opposite. She wants to stay here with the father of her child... and how could I say no. It's better for him to deal with her late-night cravings than her mother and I. Wouldn't you say so, King? I mean, you do have that big apartment that only you stay in. Or is it a house now?" He smiled, patting King's shoulder as he shrugged, walking away with Elisa. Although something told the rest of them, Paz wanted to beat his ass.
"Cheer up, old man. Things happen, and fucking leads to consequences. Sometimes those consequences are pregnancy. Be happy your old ass is about to become a grandpa. Shit, aren't you older than our parents anyway?" Roman laughed while Paz scoffed, turning to Xavier and Barkley.
"He says that until he gets someone pregnant...."
"Heavens, no! Roman does not need any kids, or have you not seen how he tortures my son, Rayna, Melody, and our younger siblings? The boy is evil and likes to hide in dark corners jumping out on small kids just to laugh. By the way, thanks if I didn't tell you already. I know you didn't do any but call my dad on Blaise's behave, but it was the best call one could hope for."
"I know, and all of you are like family to me. You having Omari taken from your hands like that broke my heart. I'm not going to lie. Being in our world had me looking for the worst. I pray a lot, but I don't think I ever found myself on my knees as much as I did praying for your son's safety. Like you, I'm glad he's back safe." Paz spoke, reaching for the little boy in Barkley's arms. Omarion smiled, and to their surprise he went to Paz as the man kissed his forehead, hugging him for a few moments until Blaise walked into view. Quickly Omarion started to wiggle, reaching for the man, and Bla didn't waste any time taking him.
"Oui, this little beau boy and I have formed a bond. He loved me and knows I love him back, but you can't tell your mommy and daddy how much candy Uncle Blaise gave you. Auntie Lola would say it's bad for your teeth." He smiled as Lola and AJ walked by causing Barkley and Ziggy to laugh as she frowned, turning to them.
"I feel like this is a gala-type thing. Our allies are here, so there is something you're not telling me." Jide spoke.
"Baby, you know we have things like this all the time. Dad, I said no fucking smoking in here...."
"Little nigga if you don't shut the fuck up. This shit here belongs to me. In case you forgot you own shit and I can smoke wherever the fuck I please bitch. Oh, Ape-man, you want to smoke? I wasn't talking to you with your drawn-on muscles ass Uncle Rod!" Elijah said as Luca and Rodney approached him, taking the blunt and making Elias sigh.
"I thought you would've learned this by now. Our parents don't listen to a damn thing we say. We have to make our own moves Lias. Open up your own shit and stop working underneath Unc. You have the means and the space here and in the Stadt if you want. Plus, it can be our hangout that we can control." Xavier spoke, making the man nod and point at the table they were to sit at.
"You mind if I sit with you all tonight?"
"I mind. Take your old ass over there with our parents. No one wants you over here bitch." Eva spoke, glaring at Rajesh as he smiled, sitting next to her, which caused his daughter and Xavier to frown. He had warned the man, and clearly, he didn't understand it. No, he didn't have a problem with the age difference. Zay knew what type of man Rajesh was; the man was a player and loved to toy with people's emotions. Neither of his sisters wasn't about to be one of those people.
