I woke up to my shoulder being shaken. I opened my eyes and Jade was in my face with her phone in her hands.
"Mama TikTok eating you up."
"What?" I know she didn't just wake me up for some shit on social media. She handed me her phone and I sat up squinting my eyes to read the comments on some random video. "Jade who is this?"
"Keith Lee. Well he was respectful but everyone else is dragging you because they think you should've known who he was and that you were rude."
"You woke me up for this." I read some of the comments and they were indeed dragging me. "I don't even run any of my social media accounts, Alexis does." I went to watch the video and his response wasn't bad at all it was just the comments. I went to his page and now I see why everyone thought I should know who he was. I really didn't care. "Here." I handed her back her phone. It was after 10 so I just decided to get ready for my day. It was Tasia's birthday today so I had the entire day planned out like I forgot. She had asked me yesterday if I had any plans for today and I told her I'd be relaxing all day and that I might book a spa treatment. She asked me if I had anything else planned and I told her I'd probably order takeout for the night and asked if she wanted to join me, Tasia sighed and told me no it was fine. Jade got comfortable in my bed while I went to find something to wear, after finding my clothes I went to take a shower and then got dressed. My hair was already done, so I took off my bonnet and brushed through the straight black 26 inch wig I wore then did my makeup.
"Mama! Zion is on the phone!" I left the bathroom and sat on the bed, she handed me my phone and Zion was on FaceTime.
"I'm trying to get mama out the house but she doesn't want to go anywhere."
"Why?"
"Because you haven't spoken to her today."
"I'm not supposed to... make her mad at me."
"What?"
"So you can get her out the house, tell her I'm not shit and you're going to treat her for her birthday."
"Okay I'll see if that works."
"Don't forget to use my card for everything you buy and find her a dress to wear for tonight. I'll see you at 7."
"Okay." She hung up the phone.
"I know you didn't just ask her to make Fantasia mad."
