All In The Family

Aniqua

I been running to the bathroom non-stop, and thankfully AJ was up with me all night. I'm pretty sure he knows what's really the reason why I been throwing up.

"I'm not going to be able to make it, can you call Aaliyah for me and tell her I'm not coming in today" I ask AJ.

"I already text her this morning so you good, I even made an appointment for this morning".

"But I don't want to go, I just want to stay in bed and sleep".

"You will once we get back, I already know what it is. That's why we going to the doctor just to make sure, gone ahead and get dress" he kiss my forehead then left out.

I brush my teeth, wash my face, then took care of the rest of my hygiene, I wonder how AJ feel about this if I am pregnant.

AJ

Just as I thought she's pregnant, I'm going to be a dad. Man I'm going to be a father, I was happy finding out she was pregnant.

"How you feel about this"? She ask smiling up at me.

"I'm happy we are going to have a baby" I say as I kiss her. Now I have to tell my parents, the only thing is how they gonna react.

"Don't you think its kinda early to be telling them the news" Aniqua tells me as we walk up to my parents doorstep waiting for someone to come open the door.

"Hey what brings the two of you to come by? Come on in" my mom said letting us in.

We all went into the den and sat down, neither one of us said nothing. Aniqua was playing with her nails and all I could do was scratch the top of my head.

"What's going on"? My mom ask.

"Nothing we just came by to see you and pops, matter of fact where's he at"?

"Where else, he went to the studio should be back later on. But something up y'all just ain't telling me, which I'm gonna find out cause I know".

I chuckle a little to myself then look at Niqua who was smiling as well.

"Ma what you talking about? I can't stop by and see you, there's nothing going on".

"Mhmm you such a liar AJ, Aniqua honey you pregnant aren't you"?

"Yes ma'am" she said above a whisper.

I look at my mom waiting for whatever kind of expression she was gonna give us.

"Well...how you feel about this"? I ask her.

"I'm happy for the both of you, just making me a grandma so soon".

"You still look good Mrs. Alsina" Aniqua tell her.

"Don't pump her head up baby, I'm just playing momma" I laugh as she threw a pillow at me.

"I love you mommy" I tell her sitting on her lap kissing her cheek like I use to do when I was little.

"August Alsina Jr. If you don't get off of me your boney ass is hurting me, you ain't nothing but sticks".

"Aww you cracking momma I thought you love me".

"I do just get off of me so I can speak to my daughter in law".

"Who"? I ask which I knew she was talking about Niqua, I just like messing with my momma.

"I'm playing mother but that's way down the line we ain't getting married no time soon" I tell her then she push me off her lap.

"Momma what you cook"? Austin come walking in the house then sat his big ass on my momma.

"I don't know what's you and AJ problem sitting on me knowing y'all heavy, you ain't little no more".

"I know that but Iove ya woman muwahh" Austin said as he kiss our mom on the cheek then laid his head on her shoulder.

This dude here, how she gonna let him do that but I get push off, Forget that I push Austin over and got under my momma.

"They some big babies" Ashley said.

"I know they a mess, they better hope Nai and Liyah don't show up".

"If y'all two big rusty don't get of my baby, what y'all doing here anyway" Our pops said coming in the door.

"Aniqua have some good news baby" my mom tells my dad.

"Oh really what's the good news? Wait Aniqua if you plan on moving to another state, city, or country and you want to take AJ you are welcome to do so no need to ask us".

"Wow really pops that's how you feel" I say.

"Nah but what's the good news"?

"Aniqua and I are having a baby" I tell him. Austin and Ashley congratulate us as my dad didn't say nothing just yet.

"You good dad"? Austin ask walking up to him.

"Yeah I'm happy for you but damn I ain't old, I'm still young".

I swear my mom and dad are something else but I can't do nothing but have love for them.
