Chanel's phone rang softly through the living room as she shuffled out of the kitchen with her hot cup of green tea in hand. It was 2AM on a Thursday morning and she found herself waiting up for her boyfriend Shai to return from a night out with his best friend, Terrence.

No reason in particular kept Chanel up. She had put their 4 year old son, Shai Jr., or S2 for short, down for the night around 9 and even stepped out back to smoke a joint, but couldn't bring herself to fall asleep.

But, good thing she hadn't.

Chanel sat her mug down on the coffee table, careful not to burn herself as she fell onto the couch and grabbed her phone.

pudding 💙🤞🏾

It was Shai. A devilish smirk formed on her face as she knew he must've gotten too drunk again and needed her to talk him through finding his keys. She picked up the call and was met with loud male banter.

"Boy yo ass can't even average 15 in a good season. I'm the truth. Stop playing with me." She heard a very intoxicated Shai slur his words as he popped his shit, not realizing his call had connected. "And I got the finest woman to exist wearing MY chain. Maaaaaan I'm forever having it my way." She could hear Terrence's laugher in the background, egging Shai on.

Chanel just laughed and rolled her eyes as her fingers toyed with the iced out "2" pendent that hung around her neck.

She cleared her throat before making her presence on the phone known. "Hello? Hello..." Shai finally took a break in his rant and remembered he had called his girlfriend. "Hey baby! I ever tell you I love you?" "Aw man here Mr. Lover boy go," Terrence went in the background.

Chanel just laughed again as her cheeks began to heat up. "You tell me everyday pudding. Now what's wrong?" She gave a fake playful pout as if Shai could see her. "Come open the door for me baby. I can't find my keys." Chanel let out another laugh, louder this time because her exact thought had been right.

Just then she heard a car pull up in the driveway and a car door close. She knew it was them.

"Honey what did I tell you about losing your keys?"

She rose from the couch trying to beat Shai to the door before he could have a chance to drunkenly ring the doorbell, possibly wake up their son.

Shai deeply sighed like he was tired of his own shit. "You told me I'm a grown ass man, too big to be losing my keys."

"Exactly but yet..." Just when she was reaching for the doorknob, a loud chime echoed through the foyer of the house. Chanel cringed at the sound and dropped her shoulders with a huff, "...here we are."
