"Come on Riley" I spoke firmly as I packed all her things in her bag "I'm coming dada, T doin my make up!" Her small voice formed the words as best as possible, for a two year old she spoke well

"Man what?!" My face screwed up I jogged up the stairs seeing Tiana put makeup on Riley's face "Tiana don't piss me off cuh"

"Caine hush, it's just a little eyeshadow" She waved me off "Man don't put that shit on my baby face" I huffed sitting at the edge of the bed

"Don't curse in front of her Caine" Tiana snapped at me I smacked my teeth "Cuh you already trynna act grown" I pointed to Riley she smiled doing a happy dance I rolled my eyes

"Look she all done, Ain't she pretty" Tiana grabbed Riley kissing her cheek repeatedly

"Yeah she prettier without that shit on her face" I scoffed Tiana glared at me "Keep playin with me Caine"

"Man" I huffed standing up picking up my daughter "Say bye to T"

"Bye T, I wuv you" She blew a kiss to Tiana, T smiled blowing a kiss back "Be good for mommy" Tiana cooed

"Okay!" Riley yelled "Aight I'll be back mama" I spoke to T she stood up walking over to me I bent down pecking her lips

"Okay I may be out"

"Out where?"

"With Trin"

I frowned "What y'all doin?"

"Hanging out Caine" She shifted her weight to one hip "Oh aight" I nodded

"Love you" I spoke as I walked out our room but I heard nothing in response making me smack my teeth

This not saying I love you shit or only saying it sometimes was starting to get under my skin

"I'm here sis!" I said over the phone Trin squealed hanging up as I got out the car

Trinity came running out her house hugging me "Look who finally grew some balls"

I laughed flipping my hair "I'm just that bitch" I snaked my neck Trinity grabbed my hand dragging towards her house "Yeah right bitch, let Caine know you here"

"You gon be tweakin" Trinity teased making me roll my eyes

"Anyways what's the plan?" I asked once we walked into her house "Aww it's been forever since I've been here" I pouted

"Yeah hoe, I need you to bring yo ass here more often" Trinity sassed pouring us cups of wine "Whatever" I waved her off looking at the pictures she had hung up

"How's your mom?" I asked as she walked over to me handing me my glass "Good, you know how she is a workaholic"

"Oh I know" I chuckled nodding my head as me and Trin grew up together there would be many nights that she would spend the night with me due to her mother working

Couple hours later...

"Bitch he is so fioneee" I slurred pointing to the TV me and Trin were off our ass watching Creed III

"Who you tellin? If I had one minute with that man I would have his ass in 20 seconds" Trin spoke confidently taking another sip from her wine glass I laughed doing the same

A knock came through her door "Hold on pause it" She stood up going to grab the door I grabbed the remote pausing the movie taking some more sips from my cup

"Tyrique if you don't take yo ass" I heard Trinity voice I choked from the name she just said "Mane why you playin shorty" I heard Ty

I sat my glass down slightly panicking I hope he doesn't notice my car outside and I hope he didn't come inside
