Finally getting a nap in, I took a quick shower & walked out to the balcony. It's always so beautiful in DR, I just wish we came out here more. My mom's half Dominican & Black, but my dad's half Jamaican & Black.

I just rolled my eyes. Dan just loves his off guard photos.

"Leave me alone Daniel.." I spoke softly.

He chuckled.

"You ready to go?" He asked.

I turned around & he had a fully dressed Kayden in his arms. She wore floral leggings, a plain black t-shirt & some Air Jordan Retro 6's. Dig has on some khaki pants, a plain white t-shirt & his Air Jordan Retro 6's.

I giggled.

"What is this??"

He smiled.

"Oh my gosh..." I laughed, walking past him.

Might as well let the man have his moment. I put on my Air Jordan Retro 6's & a plain white t-shirt. I already had on some red leggings and a white tank.

"Awwwwwww..." He cooed over the fact that I was following his movement.

I playfully rolled my eyes.

"Let's go.." I said picking up my phone & the hotel card.

Just as I walked over to the door, my phone chimed....twice.

I just laughed. I CAN NOT WITH LYNDA AMERICA CLOVER-DOUGLAS!!!

The ride to my grandparents house was quiet, peaceful but quiet. Daniel's arm wrapped around me as he played on his phone, Kayden blabbing about nothing in her car seat, and then me....just enjoying this quiet time before the fiesta of Dominican heritage comes to life for the next couple of hours.

Pulling up to my grandparents house, I clenched tightly to Diggy's hand. I never liked this side of me. I don't like speaking in Spanish, I only ever do it when I'm angry or pissed. And my grammy don't know a lick of English. URGHHHH!!! I mean, come on!!! My grandparents have been married for 50 years. Grand-poppy couldn't have taught her any English???

"Mi grand-bebé!!" {My grand-baby!!} My grammy yelled as she opened the front door. Then she squealed. "AH! Hola señorita Kayden..." {AH! Hi Miss Kayden...}

Kayden giggled. She has no idea what grammy is saying.

"Hola abuela.." {Hi grandma..} I half smiled.

She smiled back.

"Entra, Entra." {Come in, come in.} She pulled us into the house. "¿Cómo has estado Daniel?" {How have you been Daniel?}

He raised his eyebrow at me. Like I said, I never speak Spanish...I hate it.

"She said how've you been.."

He chuckled.

"He estado bueno.." {I've been good..}

How can you speak it, but you can't understand it?? GET IT TOGETHER DANIEL!!

I shook my head & sat down, unstrapping a babbling Kayden out of her carrier.

"Puedo sostener su?" {Can I hold her?}

I sighed & gave Kayden to her.

"Usted es tan precioso!!!" {You are so precious!!!} She squealed, kissing all over Kayden's face.

Diggy chuckled.

"HACER NO AHOGAR SU!" {DO NOT SMOTHER HER!} I snapped as I saw Kayden on the verge of crying. I took her from grammy & cradled her. "It's okay mamas.."

"Baby, don't be so harsh..." Dig told me. "It's all new for the both of them, she'll get used to her.." He took Kayden from me & gave her back to grammy.

Then I heard footsteps.

"I though I heard my favorite granddaughter in here..."

I looked back & gasped.

"GRAND-POPPY!"

I ran over & jumped on him, clenching onto his neck as I hugged him. God, I miss this old geezer!!
