JANET POV
I stepped out the shower and wrapped the towel around my body, taking a deep breath as I left out the bathroom so I can lotion my body down.
"Mommy" I heard Ivory say as she walked into the room.
"Yes baby" I said.
"Can I spend the night at Jordan's house?" She asked me. Jordan is her friend she met in preschool. And Ivory is now in the first grade so they've been friends for like two years.
"Oooh baby I don't know about that." I said.
"Aww mommy why? Her mommy says you guys can meet and talk" Ivory said.
"I know baby but, I don't feel comfortable with all that yet. You're still very young." I said.
"I wanna hang with Jordan" She pouted.
"You guys hang at school everyday" I said.
"But I just wanna spend the night at her house" Ivory said.
"Ask your father." I said.
"Mommy you know he's gonna say no" Ivory whined.
I chuckled because she's right.
"Baby, you can't spend the night this time okay? Maybe next time I'll think about it." I said.
"Fine" She said.
"Don't be upset with mommy. I'll buy you a happy meal and then some ice cream. Then we can watch your favorite movie, the Hannah Montana movie. Okay?" I said, and she smiled.
"Really?" Ivory said.
"Mhm." I said.
"Okay" She said cheesing and I laughed.
"Now let me get dressed" I said and she laughed saying "Okay mommy"
As she left out, Trevante walked in. "Everything coo?" He asked.
"Oh yeah, she was asking if she could spend the night at her friend's house" I said.
"What friend?" Trevante asked scrunching his eyebrows and I laughed.
"Jordan. Her favorite lil home girl" I said.
"Nah. Ain't happening" He said.
"I know. I told her no, and I told her I'll make it up to her by getting her a happy meal and ice cream. Then watch her favorite movie so she good now" I said.
"Yeah I don't trust that. All these weirdos out here, and kids tryna do grown things they ain't got no business doing. Nope. I don't trust it at all." Trevante said.
"Exactly. So. She's not spending the night at no friend's house until she's 18." I said.
"Yup, when she's able to make her own decisions." Trevante said.
"Mhm" I said.
"You look good baby.." He mumbled biting his lip.
"Trevante I got a towel on" I said laughing as I was looking through my closet.
"And I wanna see what's under that." He said.
"You know what's under it. You've seen it plenty of times, we got two kids. And where is Jr?" I asked.
"I just put him back to sleep. Infants, it's crazy. They wake up early then go to sleep in the next hour. Like they worked a full time job." Trevante said and I laughed.
"I know. It's crazy" I said. I pulled out my outfit for the day and laid it out on the bed, then I grabbed my baby lotion and started squeezing it into my hands.
