Mine For A Moment

Chapter 41

Malani

I was helping Gma prepare Thanksgiving food. I loved thanksgiving or anytime family and friends came together. We had to clean the house until there wasn't a spec of dust, and Gma claimed she was Ted assistance. She really like to do everything herself in the kitchen.

"Big head," Kayon said when I came and took a seat on the couch.

"What?"

"Why the long lip?"

"The lady begs for help and then critiques everything you do."

He grinned, but he was really focused on the game. "You know they say Cole have a kid."

I glared at him. "He does not, he would of told me."

"You sho? Because I heard it from more than one person."

Did he? He wouldn't hide a child? "I'll ask him when he gets here, but I already know it's a rumor."

"Then why ask if you know it's a lie?" He shrugged, knowing he was getting under my skin.

"Well I heard Chris and Lonzo back fucking,"

His smiled disappeared. "Man, you just want me to react..."

"You know I'm pretty tight with Chris and from my understanding, they talked last night and had sex...great sex, different from all the other times." I smiled. "Maybe, Lonzo said I love you."

Kayon

"Imma be back," I was bothered but shit he was allowed to do what he wanted. But here I am, jumping in my ride to go holla at him. Then I stopped before pulling out the driveway. What the fuck ima even say? He won't even talk to me but he coolin with him. Plus, he might stop by today anyways. What if he bring Chris?

I just got out my car and went back inside.

Later that evening a bunch of people started coming. I had already showered and was about to get dress when I got a text. It was a video of the thick guy I been talking to, we been doing more than talking. The first night I met him he gave me some sloppy toppy that was so good, I ain't even need to smash. To be honest, after the second time, I wasn't really interested anymore. The other guy was giving me, he possibly wanted a relationship vibes. I had to block him with the quickness.

The door opened and Lonzo walked in.

Damn, he looked good. His outfit was simple, but somehow he made it work. I always liked when he wore all his jewelry, and his fresh twists made it even better.

He spotted me and waved. My feet started moving toward him, but he held the door open and Chris stepped in behind him.

I stopped.

"Told you," Malani said from behind me.

She brushed past me and walked straight over to them. "You brought Chris? Heeey." She hugged them both.

I bit my tongue. I would never call her out her name, but she was pushing it.

Whatever.

Instead of standing there, I turned and headed to my room. The door closed behind me, and I dropped onto the bed.

Lonzo

""Gma!" I hugged her tight. "This is Chris. Chris, this is my grandma."

"Hello, baby." She pulled both of us into a hug before heading back to the stove. "If y'all not ready to eat yet, I can wrap your plates up."

"We can eat now," I said. "I'm hungry."

Chris glanced over at me and nodded. "Yeah, me too."

Once the plates were ready, we carried them to the table. Malani joined us, but she stood up again when my cousin walked in.
