Ria
I don't know why Rico keep making little passes at me. Like I told him and everybody else. I'm just focusing on myself right now. I'm not finna get back with this man, especially if he going through some unnecessary ass baby mama drama.
I was sitting in guest room, the room I was staying in while I was living with Rico. I was reviewing the last little bit of things I would have to do to finalize my business down here. I slowly came to realization that I'm in New York. One of the biggest city's of art! I knew I was gonna be in some tough competition but I don't care. My business can and will be successful again.
I sighed as I looked through the many ads for empty buildings. I wanted to find just a little office space. Enough room for me, my assistant, and my art of course. I looked at the time an saw it was almost 2 in the morning. Put all my my stuff to the side an decided to go to sleep. I knew I would have to get Mia an Nia up for school in the morning. Those girls were so sweet and just a bundle of joy. Seeing the bond that they have with Rico lights my heart up every time.
Next Day...
I woke up to the smell of bacon an pancakes, and I heard talking an laughing downstairs. I looked at the time. It was only 8:30 and the girls didn't have to be to school until 9:30. I got up, washed my face and brushed my teeth.
I walked downstairs and into the kitchen to see some lady in the kitchen with the girls.
"Um, good morning." I said looking at her weirdly. Fuck is she and how did she get in here.
"Good morning. I'm Teresa. Ricardos new girlfriend." she said referring to Rico's dad. I smiled and extending my hand but she just pulled me into a hug. I'm glad Rico's dad found someone.
"Nice to meet you Ms. Teresa." I said as we pulled back from the hug. She laughed and fanned me off.
"Hunny I'm not that old." she said walking over to the stove and fixing a plate, and handed it to me. She had fixed pancakes, eggs, fried potatoes and onions and biscuits. Lord Jesus knows I needed a good ol fashioned meal.
"Thank you." I said as I sat down. I said my grace before eating.
"Alright girls. Go upstairs and brush your teeth and wash ya face again." she said to Nia and Mia. They said 'yes ma'am' in unison an ran upstairs.
"Those two talked a hole in my head about you." she sajd turning around catching me stuffing my face. That food was banging.
"Good things I hope." I managed to get out covering my mouth.
"Lord, all this taking care of Rico and the girls, you barely eat don't you?" she asked grabbing her cup of coffee and sitting in front of me.
"Yeah. I just wanna make sure their good and have everything they need." I said wiping my mouth.
"Its good to see young couples still in love these days of age." she said standing up and walking to pour herself more coffee.
I chuckled "Teresa we aren't together anymore. And there isn't any lo-" she cut off.
"Now I know you not finna sit right there an lie to my face. What woman you know, lemme rephrase that. What black woman you know that's gonna stick around a man and his kids that's not by her, and take care of the three of em is she didn't love em? Ion know what you guys had in the past, but I know it was something deep. So deep that the both of you couldn't let each other go if y'all tried." she said before sipping her coffee.
I sat there and started thinking. This lady was right.
"Grandmaa!! When is Grandpa coming!? We don't wanna be late fir school!" the twins said coming back down the stairs. I laughed looking at the time. It was only 9:10.
"Oh y'all hush. You know ya grandpa is on his way. Go grab your bags." she said before walking out. Before she walked out she turned to me
"Think about what I said S'erria." and with that she turned and walked out, and in rolled Rico.
"Good morning son." she said kissing him on the cheek.
"Good morning mama." she said rolling in.
"Good morning Ria." he said as I got up to throw my trash away and began making him a plate.
"Good morning. How you sleep after all that training you did yesterday?" I asked sitting his table on the plate. He said his grace before answering.
"Slept good. See you met Teresa." he said smirking.
"Yeah. At first I ain't know who she was. Almost had to break a old lady down." I said laughing. Rico laughed to and began eating his food. Few minutes later his dad walked through the door.
"Hey son. Hey daughter in-law." he said hugging and giving me a kiss on the cheek.
"Dad she not yo-"
"Oh boy shut the hell up. You know y'all gone get married. Once y'all fast asses get ya act together. Now where my grand girls at?" he said stealing a piece of bacon. Rico pointed up the stairs and out walked his dad. I laughed and shook my head.
"See he hasn't changed."
"Shit. Every since he met Teresa he got worse." Rico said sucking his teeth. I laughed and just shook my head.
