Kari

"Kingston" I smacked my lips as I walked into the living room waving my hand around "You couldn't do this shit outside" I sat down next to him rubbing my stomach

"My fault ma" Kingston immediately put out his blunt he pecked the side of my forehead I looked up at him his eyes were so low and slightly red

"You okay?" I asked hoping he would open up to me about Kareem and Kari, He hasn't said anything to me about it which meant he was keeping it to himself and bottling his emotions

"I'm straight just thinking" Kingston nodded as he put his arm around me "About what?" I asked looking straight ahead at the tv that wasn't on

"People in my life, trynna figure out if I got some bad apples"

I looked back up at him frowning "Why what happened?"

Kingston stayed silent for a minute before chuckling shaking his head "On our gender reveal party I caught Kareem and Kari kissing" Kingston spoke bitterly I kept my attention on him not responding just allowing him to vent and rant

"Shit is fucked up dawg, first niggas is disrespecting me then she gon disrespect my crib"

"Then Kareem man, nigga suppose to be my brother, I did not see this shit coming nigga totally blindsided me" Kingston chuckled in anger "No wonder he would be so far up in her ass especially after that whole situation with that deadbeat"

He finally stopped talking I slightly opened my mouth hesitating to respond "Maybe you should hear them out" I said slowly and in a soft tone Kingston's face screwed up

"Man what?" Kingston looked at me "Babe come on how long you gon be mad at your sister the baby is finna be here soon she's going to be around regardless"

"You can't avoid her"

"You knew about this shit Sabrina?" Kingston asked calmly I tucked my lips nodding slowly Kingston smacked his lips

"Who else knew?"

"Literally everyone"

"Why the fuck was I left in the dark, shouldn't I be the first nigga told about this shit" Kingston spat "Maybe your not easy to talk to babe"

"What you mean I'm not easy to talk to?"

"Like you shut things down before their even explained fully, if you don't like what you hear you immediately tune out"

"Cause that shit is dumb as fuck out of all niggas she wanna date my bestfriend?"

"Baby she can't control who she has feelings for"

"Mmcht" Kingston smacked his lips "Just talk to them and more importantly talk to her, it's been damn five months since you've talked to your sister"

"Don't you miss her?" I tilted my head looking at him King sighed before nodding "Yeah I miss her, of course I miss her that was my lil baby" King went on

"Then why you being so stubborn?"

"Cause what she did was fucked up"

"It was, no one is saying it wasn't— but five months Kingston really five months?"

"What do you gain from not talking to her?"

"You right ma" King nodded "I know I'm always right" I smiled "You better talk to your best friend too" I looked at him knowingly "Besides you was gonna ask him to be our babygirl Godfather" I smiled Kingston chuckled nodding

"Yeah before I caught they ass kissin" Kingston joked smiling "You know you lowkey happy your sister has someone that you know won't do her dirty, that will treat like the queen she is" I pushed him playful he laughed nodding "Lowkey"
