Riah POV

I gotta do a couple of night shifts so I'm just chilling and relaxing until tonight. Tommie been up in her man cave playing on her Xbox. I find it hilarious that she doesn't know Super-Smash-95 is me. I be having down time at work in our lounge area at the fire house. We have a gaming room in there. Xbox n Ps5 so she really doesn't need anybody else to play with. Sometimes I see her name pop up then it's saying she's offline playing the regular mode. I wonder if I should tell her it's me. My phone started ringing and it's my mommy.

"Hey baby"

"Hey mommy how are you?"

"I'm doing fine, what about you? Ms. Firefighter Lenn. You know you made national headlines in the newspaper."

"What??? Say it ain't so!"

"Yes baby, saving those kids from that house fire. Your on YouTube as well. When Tommie prayed for you I just said a prayer with her too. Even though it already happened, I still said one again."

"I'm fine mommy and the kids are fine. Hearing those words from her, is the reason I got up. So I'm thankful for her."

"We all are thankful.."

"What do you mean by we??"

"Your father is here with me

"Your father is here with me. That's what I mean by we." Omg I sat up on the couch when she said that.

"Ms. Lenn JR!" My dad calls me JR because I act just like him. His little mini me.

"Hey Daddy"

"It's Major Daddy to you princess."

"Daddy I'm not calling you that, your retired old man." He just laughed in the phone.

"Can a young man play sometimes."

"Yea, if he was a young man. Then maybe I'll give him some play time." I giggled and he just laughed.

"Funny just like your old man. I'm proud of you Ms.Lenn. Still trying to keep our name alive. Your Courageous, determined, and dedicated like me princess. Look at how you saved those precious kids and I heard that you were unconscious for a little while. Are you feeling better now today princess?"

"Yes daddy, I got evaluated by the paramedics and I'm feeling fine."

"Alright now princess that good ole Lenn jeans running through your bloodstream."

"Yea it is." I giggled.

"I also heard too that you have a girlfriend soon to be your wife? Soon to meet your father."

"Not too much daddy, and yes I do. She's downstairs right now playing her game."

"Who's playing the bills, is she treating you right, you have men's in your life too."
