Keeping my focus trained on tying Maleek's shoe's lace. I ignore the countless cries that come from him every two seconds.

I steady his foot between my legs as I pull the lace a bit tighter.

"No" He cries as he slides his hand down his leg, trying to block my hands from fastening his shoe.

Ignoring his cries, I quickly finish and avoid eye contact with him. He rolls about the bed crying as I move around the room ensuring that Azriel had taken up everything that he needs for an easy day today.

I turn around quickly at the sound of him falling on the floor and his cry filling the room.

Rushing over to where he is, I lift him into my arms as I examine him.

"Yuh really mek up yuh mind seh yuh nuh waah guh" I chuckle as I watch him wipe his tears.

He lays his head on my shoulder and I move around the room with him in my arms, straightening it back up and taking up his things as I exit the room.

"Maleek different ennuh," I say towards Azriel as she makes her way into the living room and over to us.

"Waah do him?" She questions as she attempts to take him from me.

He shakes his head and turns away from her causing her mouth to fly wide open and laughter to escape me.

"Lock yuh mouth and mind fly choke yuh" I tease as I wipe away the lipstick smudge on the extreme corner of her lips.

"A swear him nuh love mi nuh more" She pouts, moving behind me to grab his attention.

"Him nuh inna nuh chattings with nuh body not even me" I share as I ease him off my shoulder to face me.

He closes his eyes and Azriel screams.

"Yes, mon how long yuh did think him aguh like yuh ova mi" Sticking her tongue out, I hiss as I place Maleek on the floor.

"Stop gwaan like yuh nuh know seh a one thing mi can use bribe him" I boast and a hiss leaves her while she rolls her eyes.

I move closer to her and pinch her side, earning a shriek from her. Her hand instantly makes its way to her side and she rubs her side intensely throwing daggers in my direction.

"Tell yuh fi lowe off a deh kiss teeth thing deh"

I scan the kitchen area for my phone when my mind runs on the countless messages that Mommy sent me this morning about Maleek's first-day pictures.

"Mommy text yuh this morning?" I direct my question to Azriel who's busy looking over Maleek's bags yet again for the hundredth time.

A smile comes on her face as she nods her head answering my question.
"She sent me like 10 from after 5 this morning up until 5 minutes ago reminding me to send the pictures to her before I send them to Ana." I shake my head, thinking of the competition going on between Mommy and Ana.
