"LOVEEEEEEEEE, NEVER KNEW WHAT I WAS MISSING BUT I KNEW ONCE WE STARTED KISSIN I FOOUNDDDD LOVEEEEE!!" Karina and Chris groaned and sat up in the bed and looked at each other.
"That ain't nobody but your big headed ass daughter." Chris said getting out the bed.
"Got the big ass head from her daddy." Karina put on her robe and slippers and followed Chris out the room. The music was even louder now that they had opened their door. They walked to Nilan's room and didn't bother knocking cause she wouldn't have heard them anyways. When they opened the door they saw Nilan on her bed making an ugly crying face while screaming the lyrics to Keyshia Cole. Karina tried to hold in her laugh but failed.
"Aye!! AYE!!" Chris yelled and Nilan jumped up to look at the door. She grabbed her phone and paused the music. "It's early as hell and you in here screeching Keyshia Cole. What's wrong with you?"
"It's Valentine's day and I don't have a boo, a bae, a lil yea, NOTHING." She whined and fell back onto the bed. "Imma grow old and die with pet fish since I don't fool with cats."
"I'm your Valentine, NiNi." Nilan subtly side eyed Chris and faked a smile.
"Yayyy." She said unconvincingly, making Karina laugh out loud and Chris smack his lips. Karina shook her head and walked away to check on Zaire and Ever and surprisingly, they were still sleep.
"Go get dressed baby." Chris said walking towards her. He grabbed her hands and kissed the back of them.
"Where we going?"
"Get breakfast." Karina smiled nodded her head. He leaned down to peck her lips a few times before she walked away and went back into their room to do her morning routine and get dressed. When she was done, Chris walked into the room with white roses and she smiled.
"When did you get these?" She asked while grabbing them.
"Had them delivered here. Imma get dressed and meet you downstairs." Chris went into the bathroom and she smiled at the flowers. She didn't remember the last time Chris got her flowers. She ran downstairs to cut the ends, put them in a vase, and put them in their room. Once she was done, she went downstairs and waited for Chris.
Chris was dressed and ready, but before going downstairs he went to Nilan's room.
"NiNi?"
"Yes?" She turned around in her chair and looked at him.
"Me and yo mama bout to go out. We gon be gone for a couple hours so just text me what y'all want for lunch."
"Can we get-"
"How you gon speak for your brothers when they not even up yet?"
"Cause I know what they want. Can we get food from Rico's Taco Truck?" Chris furrowed his eyebrows.
"How you know about Rico's? Y'all ain't never been to Glendale."
"Um yes we have. We've been going with ma for about four months now..." Chris just looked at her. "So can we get it?"
"I'm not driving to Glendale for tacos." Nilan rolled her eyes. "Do it again and you won't have eyes to roll." Nilan took a deep breath and turned back towards her laptop. Chris closed her door and went downstairs.
