"Ah man. You beat me again." I lowered my head, pretending to feel defeated.

We'd been playing the game for almost two hours and I let him beat me in every game. Being around a Amir was all new ta' me but I was trying my best ta' get it right.

"Tol' you I'ca play better than you Aujust." He smiled widely. I stood up and turned off the game then sat right beside him

"You don't wanna play the game nomo'?" He asked.

"Yeh, I just wanna talk ta' you fa' minute. Is that coo' lil man?"

"Aite." He shrugged.

"You been listening ta' ya' mama?"

"Sometimes."

"Sometimes? Look at me, always listen ta' ya' mama, ya' heard me? She take real good care of ya' and no matter what I know she gon' always be thea' fa' ya'."

"Ok. I'a listen."

"Good. You like playing the game wid' me?"

"Yep." A big smile spread across his face.

"Well how would you feel if we can play the game ta'gedda everyday?"

"We can!??"

"Oh you coo' wid' it I see?" I chuckled. " Yeh, we can."

"Can my daddy play wid' us too?"

"Uh." I cheared my throat. "I'on think-"

"Next time go get this shit ya' self." Cash walked in the house, tossing me a bag.

"What the fu-...what's wrong witchu?"

"I ran into Peaches at the store. How the hell ima explain ta' Skittles that I was buying a DNA test? On top of that, Natasha been blowing my phone." He walked over ta' the bar and poured him a drink.

"Watch ya' mouth man and don't be drinking in front of my s-.. Don't drink in front of lil man." I corrected myself. "What Natasha said? And you ain't seen Peaches, ha' flight left this morning."

"I'an pick up. And how you gon' tell me what I saw? Now the bi-..now she gon' have my girl thinking reckless."

"Ya' girl? Getcha' priorities in order bruh." I shook my head.

"Hea' she is again." Cash stared at his phone then answered it.

I went back ta' conversing wid' Amir as Cash picked up the phone. I looked back and forth at the both of them, trying ta' pay attention ta' both conversations.

"I'm on my way!" Cash yelled in the phone before hanging up. He grabbed his keys then rushed towards tha' door.

"Yo!?" I panicked. "Wussup?"

"You gotta take Amir home then meet me at Monroe hospital asap! I'll send you Natasha's address. Something wrong wid' Sky." That was all he said befo' rushing out that door and my heart raced as I assumed tha' worst.

"Come on lil man. Lemme' getchu' home." I quickly grabbed his coat and put it on him.

"But I wanna stay hea' and play witchu'."

I paused as I zipped up his jacket. The saddened look on his face confirmed exactly how he felt. I looked over at the bag that Cash threw on the couch then got up ta' grab it.
