Chrilani

Chapter One

Kehani POV

I walked down the street as a car roared past. I looked up to look at the car. It was a red lambo. I rolled my eyes because this was the third time this week this person did that. Once I got to my house, I heard someone clear their throat. I looked up. It was my neighbor.

"What are you doing here?"

"Can you watch Royalty for me?" he asked. I crossed my arms.

"Nigga, you don't anything important to do."

"Well niggette, her mother unexpectedly dropped her off and I have a club appearance to do."

"So not only do you need me to watch her, you need me to have her all night?"

"Not all night. She falls asleep early. So technically, I need you to keep her company."

"Chris, you can't do this."

"Look, I'll pay you."

"I'm not your babysitter."

"Please." he begged. I rolled my eyes and looked at him.

"Where is she now?" I asked. As if on cue, Royalty ran out from behind the house with Chris's dog. She ran up to me and hugged my leg.

"Hi Kehlami." I smiled. Chris handed me her bag.

"Thank you so much. Don't smoke around her. Lord knows her mother has a problem with everything I do." He kissed my cheek and then bent down and kissed Ro. She giggled. "See you later Rolita."

"Royalty, daddy!" she giggled. Chris smiled and looked at me.

"I'll call you when I'm on my way. Around 2 ok."

"Whatever Chris." He smiled and ran out towards his house. I looked at Royalty and smiled. "Wanna play Operation?" I asked. She looked at me and stuck out her tongue. "I take that as a no."

"What's operaction?" she asked. I picked her up and walked to my front door.

"Nothing little girl. Let's just paint ya nails. It's the safest thing to do."

'Nah nigga." My friend, Jhene said. "The safest thing to do is to watch tv." then she leaned in towards me and whispered. "And get that dick." I looked over at her and rolled my eyes.

"Go set up the kitchen so I can paint our nails."
'What I look like your servant?" I turned and looked at her.

"Bitch, you literally is wearing a shirt that says Lani's Assistant." She rolled her eyes.

"Looky here bitch, I do things without any meaning."

"So, I don't pay you?"

"You right." She walked into the kitchen and started to set up.

"Wanna watch Yo Gabba Gabba?" I asked Royalty. I knew she hated that show. She looked up at me and frowned. It's amazing how much she looks just like her father. "Ok, ok., Dora it is." I joked. She pouted and shouted some type of baby talk. "Oh oh. I forgot you're too old for Dora. You like watching Teen Titans go."

"Yay!" I shook my head and turned on the tv. Chris has her watching these shows a lot. Like nigga, why isn't she wasn't educational shows. She needs to learning. Not singing songs about burritos and hamburgers.

I sat her on the couch and walked into the kitchen and looked at Jhene. She looked up at me. "Am I doing something wrong?" She asked.

"Nah, I just like how you like bringing irrelevant shit in front of the nigga's child."
