We got back home on a Wednesday and Kendall got the kids for the rest of the week since I had them for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I was kind of weary to leave them with him because I found out he was drunk when broke up my house. He said he went straight back to AA so I guess you can say he's been sober for a month. It was 11 am and I had just finished breakfast when I got a FaceTime call from Taraji. I answered it on the second ring.
"Hi mama." She smiled.
"Hi baby."
"How was your day?"
"Fine, I just got done with my interview with Oprah."
"Oh, how was it?"
"It was fine."
"Just fine?"
"Yes."
"Are you on your way home?"
"Mhm, well since I'm being a more proactive mother I'm going to go buy the kids lunch and bring it to them. Then I'll be going home."
"Where are they?"
"Ari is at basketball practice and Jade is at track."
"Well, can you come to this home instead of your home?"
"Baby my home is wherever you are, but when we have a home I want us to get it together. That home was yours and Kendall's."
"Okay that's fair. Will you still come over though?"
"I have some promo to do for my hair care line. You want me to come get you while I'm out and you can come over my house?"
"Yes."
"Okay I'm closer to you so I'm on my way now. I should be there in like 7 minutes."
"Okay." I went upstairs to go put some shoes on and check my appearance. By the time I headed back downstairs I saw her car pulling in and a message hit my phone telling me she was outside. I ran out the door and got into her car. Ooh she was driving her black Rolls Royce. She smiled when she saw me and I leaned over the console to kiss her. "Hi mama!"
"Hi baby!" She kissed me back and then pulled off.
"Can I connect to the Bluetooth?" She just turned it on and I connected my phone. I decided to play Sabrina Claudio and the first song to play was Better Version. I sang along to the song and she vibed along. She pulled up to a chipotle. "Have you eaten?"
"Yes, I had a late breakfast."
"Okay. I'll be right back." She got out her car and headed inside the restaurant. I waited twenty minutes for her to come back out. "I hope they felt like working today cause I'm not taking this shit back if it's not good." I laughed as she pulled off. When we made it to the school Taraji grabbed the food and got out. I waited for her to come back out but after 20 minutes I called her phone.
