Thugs Ain't For Me: Chapter II

2: Welcome Back ..

*Monday* 1 year later....

Bella

"Hello sir, may I take your order?" I take the last order of the day before I got ready to clock out.

"Yes, let me have an uhhh large Iced Mocha Latte, to go." He digs out his wallet.

"Alright." I finish putting the order in. "That'll a be $6.50." He hands me a ten and I grab his change. "Linda I need a large Ice Mocha Latte!" I yell to the back. Trey comes to the front and takes over the cash register so I can leave. It was one in the afternoon and I was more ready to go home than ever. I checked out front to see if Nicole's car was out there and it was. "Hey Linda I'm leaving!" I notify her.

"Alright sweety see you tomorrow." She waves. I grab my things and push through the double doors. Taking in a load of outside air that is much needed I head to Nicole's car.

"Hey Jordan." I rotate my body in the passenger seat to give him a high five. He's four years old now and looks just like his daddy. "Wassup girl." I let my seat back a bit to relax.

"Worked hard today?" She teases.

"Don't I everyday." I rest my eyes. Me and Nicole been hanging out for almost a year now, since I reached out to her a few months ago. I didn't see no point in us hating each other if we had something in common. She never did anything to me and I didn't to her. After I got to know her, I realized that she was super cool and I didn't mind being around her personally. Plus, Jordan fell in love with Camden and I fell in love with him. He just reminds me so much of Christian that he's a joy to be around. He walks just like Christian and he smiles exactly like him. Sometimes I wish I would of had his son as well, and then I could have my own little Christian but I love my little girl. At such a young age she's something else. I definitely gotta say having a one year old and a five month old is a lot of hard work. "Have you got any news on your sister?" I asked her. Her little sister Nayeli has been missing for a minute now.

"Nope nothing....anything on your missing friend or baby daddy?" She asks in response.

"Nope." There sure is a lot of people just off the map. "But knowing Preston he probably at some random island being felt on by a group of girls." I smile.

"I think....they'll show up soon." We continue to drive until we make it to the daycare. I went inside and signed my kids out before going into the playroom to retrieve them. Camden spotted me and shot in my direction. Now that he knows how to walk, he has gotten a million times bad. I scoop him up in my arms and give him the biggest hug.

"Have you been good today?" I ask him and he nods his head but I know he lying. I put him down and get my girl from the daycare manager. She was sleeping in her carseat when I went to her.

"She's been a real good baby today, and as for Cam....let's just say, he's the reason I work so hard." She laughs and I shake my head at his little butt.

Carrying the carseat and Camden to the car, Jordan greets Camden with a hug and Camille with a kiss on the cheek.

"Was he bad today?" Nicole asks me when I got back into the front seat.

"Girl, when isn't he bad?" I peek at him through the rearview mirror and he just smiles at me.

Nicole drops us off at the house. After putting Camille in her crib, I make Cam some early lunch so he can take his ass to sleep.

"Cam come in here!" I call him to the kitchen. I hear the little thumps of his feet running to the kitchen. "What do you want to eat?" I ask him.

"Chi-ken nogg-ets." I roll my eyes.
