Me: Umm I can drop him off omw to the shop . Send me ya address .
He sent me his address then I got up and did my daily duties . I just put on a black and white Adidas jogging suit and some white air force ones.
I walked to king room and started going through his drawers. Finally I found him something to wear . I got him some all black trues and a white and black true religion shirt with some black air force ones.
I Put him in the shower, washed him up and put his clothes on. I went downstairs, went to the kitchen and started preparing breakfast. "You want to go see ya dad today?" I said putting bacon in the skillet . "yea, where we going?" king said sitting down at the table and grabbing his Ipad.
" I don't know but im sure its gonna be fun".
"Ok as long as its fun"
"King you a trip" I said laughing . I finished making our meal and made our plates.I poured us some orange juice , sat across from him at the table and we ate. I washed our lil dishes and walked in the living room my hair appointment is at 2 and its 1:OO . " You ready to go?" "yea" king said "Ight Holon lemme go get my phone".
I ran upstairs and texted August
Me:We on our wayAugust: Ight
We left the house and rode to his house . His house wasn't far, we arrived 15 minutes later. We got out the car and I rung the door bell . Almost instantly the door swung open and it was Sheila (his momma) " Heyy" She Said pulling me into a tight hug. "Hey, you look nice" I said hugging her back .
It was true she haven't aged a bit since the last day I saw her.
"Thanks you do too, come on in" she said stepping to the side. I walked in and the house was full of people , it was a few unfamiliar faces but for the most part i knew everybody."This ya son?" she said looking at him " yea" I said . "aw ok . Hey cutie" she said smiling "hi " king said standing very close to me .
I spoke to everybody who spoke to me and was about to leave."That's yo son?" Travis said ( His brother) "yea um..". "That's OUR son " August said interrupting me coming downstairs. Everybody had shocked looks on thier faces which made me feel a little unconformable.
"Why we just now finding out?" Jamal said (His other brother) . "Because right after i found out i left New Orleans" I Said "Why you leave New Orleans?" Travis said .
"That's enough . Why yall keep asking her all these questions?" Sheila said. "He is so cute " one of August cousins said . "thank you " I said smiling .
"What's his name ?.. That's the last question ma" Jamal said . "King" I said. I Looked down at my rolex and it said 1:49. I knew I was gonna miss my appointment. "Where Chacha?" I said changing the subject.
"She at work, she work at a shop now". Sheila said " Really? That's good , she always talked about working in a shop". "King!" Kay Kay said yelling from the kitchen "huh?" king said still standing behind me .
"Come play with us" Nonnie said . "okay" he said running to the kitchen . "where the shop at , im finna go see her cause I just missed my hair appointment ". "Its on 21st"(made up) she said. "August ill be back" I said looking at him .
"Ight" he said . I looked on the other side of the room and I seen one of August cousins muggin. " son im finna go ok, ill be back" I said walking in the kitchen .
