"Hello" I said answering the phone

"Come get your son cuz he's been treating Marcus like shit and I need him out the house for a minute" said Tomika one of my baby mommas. Marcus was her punk ass boyfriend.

"Ight here I come" I said hanging up

It took about a hour to get to Tomika's house. She stayed all the way on the northside of town. When I finally got there I walked up to the house and rang the door bell. I expected her punk ass boyfriend to open the door with his arogant ass. I always had I problem with him. I had to remind Tomika numerous times to watch that nigga. If my son tells me that he put his hands on him I got something for his ass. But he's the reason me and Tomika didn't work out. She cheated on me with him saying that I wasn't giving her the attention she needed when she knew I was out here trying to make paper and take care of our son. She claims she didn't want to be with someone who sold drugs but she knew what she signed up for. I wasted 5 years on trying to make our relationship work. But she was only with me for the money. She stole money out of my bank account and threatened to tell one time about my bussiness. I wanted her too. Just so I could show them how unfit she was to take care of my son. But now that she got this new nigga she think she the shit. Fuck Her. To my suprise it was her that answered the door.

"Hi" she said dry as hell.

I knew she wasn't suprised to see me I didn't give a fuck I came for my son not her.

"Yeah hi" I said dryly.

"ERIC YO DADDY IS HERE !"

Just then I heard a thud and then running.

"Daddy!" said my son running down the steps

"Wuz up lil man" I said picking him up. He has got bigger since the last time I seen him only 5 and he starts to look more and more like me everytime.

"Can we go to Grandma's house today?" He asked

"Yeah we going and Grandma said she has somethin for you"

"What is it?"

"I don't know that's why I'ma take you to see her now go get in the car" I said putting him down

Eric ran to the car and got in the front seat

"Ight Tomika I'll have him back later"

"Mmhmm" she said closing the door behind me

Her attitude was irrevlant as fuck. She's mad because I know she still wants me. But I could never go back to that cycle of bullshit.

When I got in the car Eric was already ready to go with his seat belt on. I pulled off.

"So you been good?" I said

"Yes"

"Your momma tells me diffrent she said you been mean to her boyfriend"

"Yeah because he's not my daddy...I wish you and mommy were still together"

"All this coming from a 5 year old" I thought to myself

"Yeah I know...me and mommy just werent happy together that's all" I said staring down the street as I drove.

"Was it because of me ?"

"No..don't think that..We...we just needed time away from each other"

"Oh" he said sounding disappointed

"So do you like your new niegborhood ?" I asked changing the subject

"No I hate it"

"Why?"
