POV: Toya's
Day: Wednesday six months later
Time: 3:30PM
Place: Park

I just picked up the twins from school and now we're at the park with the rest of the crew. Except for Que. His birthday is on Saturday. The 21st. We're planning a party for him.

The twins are pushing TJ in the little swing across from us and we're sitting in the grass. "So where should we have the party?"

Stina: "Well we could do it at the ballroom where I work."
Bre: "So..I'll deal with food and drinks."
Stina: "I got decorations."
Toya: "Guys.."
Guys: "Sup?"
Toya: "Y'all gotta keep Que busy."
Tevin: "What will we do?"
Toya: "Go over to the house.. Go-Cart racing. Just do something, please! I'll handle the guests."
Stina: "Who'll watch the kids though?"
Bre: "I gotta great babysitter."
Toya: "Great."

We made the arrangements for everything then we all left. I had to go to this copying place so I could get the invitations made. They're gonna be ready tomorrow, perfect. Afterwards, we headed home.

The twins ran inside while I waddled. I feel like I'm ready to pop. Que should be home around 6. I went into the kitchen and decided to make lobster mac n' cheese for dinner. While it was cooking, I went upstairs and helped the twins with their homework.

Alana: "Mommy, when is our brother coming?"
Toya: "It won't be much longer."
Alisa: "Yay!"
Toya: "Y'all gonna help take care of him, right?"
Alana: "But babies grab people's hair. Nuh uh."
Toya: "You used to grab my hair so shh."
Them: (laughing)

When we were done with the homework. I got them bathed and in their pajamas then we headed downstairs. Que walked through the door and the twins ran over to him.

Jac: (lifting them both up) "Hey!"
Alana: "Mommy says the baby's coming soon."
Jac: "He surely is."
Alisa: "He's taking forever. He must like it in there."
Jac: (setting them down and laughing)
Twins: (walking towards the kitchen)
Alana: "Ain't it hot in there though?"

I laughed as I walked over to Que. He laughed at me I pouted and crossed my arms. "Not funny."

Jac: (kissing me and grinning) "Don't pout."
Toya: "Why you laughing?"
Jac: "Cause you waddling."
Toya: (laughing) "I can't help it."
Jac: (grinning and grabbing my hand) "I know, baby. I know."

We walked into the kitchen and I served dinner. We all ate together, that was until everyone started flicking cheese at each other.

After washing the dishes and getting the twins to sleep, I took a bubble bath with Que. Nothing freaky, just a bath.

Jac: "So what time did you get home?"
Toya: "Around 5:15. Why?"
Jac: "Y'all went to the mall or something?"
Toya: (lying) "They needed new socks for school."
Jac: "Oh."
Toya: "How was your day?"
Jac: "Great. I got something I needed."
Toya: "Like what?"
Jac: "Come here."

I scooted over to him and he whispered in my ear.

Jac: (grinning) "It's a secret."
