Target

"Mommy." "Yes Mommy's Munchkin." "Tan I have dat peeze?" Iyonna asked sweetly pointing to the island display that has a kitchen set.

"I'm sorry Baby. Not this time ok." Fatima told her.

Iyonna makes a face. "Peezze." She begged on the verge of tears.

"Munchkin, we're not here for that right now. But when we come back from Disney World, Mommy and Daddy will come back to Target and get it for you, ok?"

Slumping her little body with a pouty face. "Ok..."

"Aweee Sweetheart." Fatima coos, taking her face into her hands. She kisses her. "Mommy's sorry that you're upset. But just wait a little longer, it'll be yours soon." She told her, wiping her tears away.

Iyonna silently pouts and whimpers as they pass by the kitchen set. She looked past Fatima to get another glimpse of it then Fatima went into an aisle and it was gone.

"Dammit." Fatima cursed, not seeing anymore Plan B's. "This is the third damn store." She murmurs to herself, hearing her phone buzz.

"Hey Babe." "Hey Mamas, what's wrong? You good?" "No, this is the third Target that I've been to and they're out of Plan B's too." "Damn." "Exactly." Leaving the aisle to get the rest of the things she needs.

When she went into the first two Targets, she wanted to kill two birds with one stone but quickly found out that idea wasn't on her side, so she left without getting anything. However, here she is again, "I guess I'ma have to swing by CVS or Walgreens before we leave." She said out loud.

"I'm actually headed that way. I have to pick up Big Ma's prescription and a knee brace with some compression socks." "Ok Cool. I'm going to send you a picture of what I need." "Please do. Because I don't wanna fuck up like I did last time." Zac mumbled.

Fatima chuckles, "You and your "man" brain." Zac snickers.

They talk a little more as Fatima shops around, she picks up her last thing then heads towards check out.

"Mommy Peeezzzzeee, Tan I have da tichen..." "Iyonna. Mommy said you have to wait." "What did she ask for?" "She's asking for this kitchen set that she sees..." "Let me see..." Zac asked, as Fatima turned the camera around.

"How much is it?" "$200." Fatima answered.

"Daddy," "Munchkin, Mommy said to wait so you're gonna wait." Zac reiterated.

Iyonna huffs her little body folding her arms across her chest.

"Young lady." Zatima uttered sternly. Seeing her on the verge of throwing a fit.

Lately, Iyonna has been a brat, which caused a slight wedge between Zatima because every time they go out Zac is adamant about giving her what she wants.

At first it was fine but one day she forgot her manners and Fatima wasn't having it.

"But I wan it...I say peeze..." "Ti. Can you give her the phone please?" Zac asked.

Fatima passes the phone to Iyonna and she sees Zac's face.

"Daddy.." she utters then starts to talk to him.

However she's talking so fast that her words are starting to mutter together.

Placing her items on the belt Fatima hears, "NO!" Followed by a crash.

"IYONNA ZURI TAYLOR!" Fatima shouted, "Have you lost your 3 year old mind?"

"I wan the tichen NOW!" "And just for that..." picking up her phone. "Got dammit." seeing it cracked, "You're not getting the kitchen when we get back."
