"We can start off with you having him a day or two out the week and then again every weekend. I'll obviously have him while you work and then you can pick him back up. I'll also stay home that way I'm not interfering and he gets use to being over there."

Jahseh and I were on FaceTime and the topic of King came up so we're discussing our joint custody agreement. It absolutely terrifies me but I can't be selfish, it'll only make things worse.

"You know Kai starts school soon we can start with the original plan of you having him after school. I'd be over everyday after work. We can just eat dinner together each night or something and I'd pitch in on groceries and whatever else you need"

"Okay so Monday to Friday you'd be here but then going home, that's like fifteen hours. Then the weekend is like thirty six hours. So in total you'll have him about fifty one hours a week whereas I'd have him around one hundred hours so it's not equal" I say taking more so to myself.

"Why are you breaking it down to the time"

"So that it's equal and fair, so we have to be close right. I just— I don't want want to lose him and I know—
"Why would you lose him Nana" he spoke over me.

"What if you tell you family the news and they all tell you that you should get full custody and then the courts grants it and proves that I'm unfit"

"But how would they prove that" he asked. Tears formed in my eyes and my throat started hurting.

"Jahseh" I couldn't even think of the words my head was racing.

"Mama no one is trying to take him from you. I swear that has never been my intentions. Regardless how my family feels when we tell them how we handle it is up to us and between us. If I ever feel I'd need to take you court I'd talk to you first and voice my issues and concerns and, I hope you'd do the same for me. Stop crying mama, I'm not even there to help wipe your tears" he says as I listened the tears silently falling.

I put my phone down in my lap for a second to wipe my face. This was all so much happening and I know it's all my fault so I guess I can't exactly help but feel guilty.

"Mama I thought I told you already I wanted it set up so that God forbid something happens I wanted Kai to go to you. If that can't happen then Ma or Stokes. You're not unfit you're definitely a better mother than Alyssa has been. You're a better father than Zayden, and truthfully I probably wouldn't be as involved with Kai if it weren't for you. You can let all those worries of losing him go. I would never do that to you or allow it to happen" he says to help comfort me I guess.

"You say that now but this is new to me" I say picking the phone back up.

"Mama nothing really has to change right now"

"Yes it does because technically you don't have time with him I'm always around and I probably nag and dictate about everything you do annoying you"

"Nana have you talked to the doctor"

"You think something is wrong with him"
