"What are you making?" Naiya asks. "The best shit in the world" she walks over wearing one of my t shirts and some of her booty shorts. She walks over and grabs me by my waist. She peeps into the pot "YOU MADE MACARONI AND CHEESE?" She yells "With beef" I smirk.
"Wow babe are you serious?" She said walking away in a way that made me look down at her ass. She plops down on the couch and buries her face in a pillow.
"Are you almost done" she groans. A smile slid across my face "Yeah" I shove the big spoon into the pot and slide it onto two red plates. "I'm not eating your basic shit" she laughs throwing the pillow. "Watch your language, my siblings are here" i whisper before blowing her a kiss.
"I have no idea why i love your dumbass" she said scooting her legs in as I sit down. "Do i need to remind you?" I grin getting on top of her. "Oh!" She moans. I hear a door open and jump off. "Chris?" Says my sister Zharia. "Yes Zhari?" I mumble getting frustrated. "Can you put me to sleep?" She asks. "Why werent you already sleep?" I ask. "Babe if you don't just help that girl go to sleep... Hi Zharia" whispers Naiya. Zharia waves as i walk her back to the room.
"I'm telling mom you brought Naiya home!" Zharia taunts. "I wish you would" I hiss. "Now go to sleep okay?" I smile. Zharia gets under the covers and rolls her eyes. "Sweet dreams" I whisper ruffling up her hair.
Naiya walks into the restroom and pulls out her phone. I glance over and see her on instagram. "You want to show the gram what we're doing tonight?" I walk over to her grab her waist and kiss her, so hard that she bends leaning into the sink. She starts taking pictures until my brother Casey knocks on the door. "Who is it?" I ask pulling up my shorts. "Its Casey" he says. "Give me a second okay?" I smile. "Nobody told you to fuck in the restroom" he groans. "We weren't fucking, dumbass now watch your mouth" I assert. "Actually babe we kind of were" Naiya whispers adjusting her bra. "He didn't need to know that" i hiss.
"Why are you so mean?" She asked getting cozy in my covers. "Whatchu mean? I'm a fucking ANGEL" I laugh. "Boy yeah right" she pursed her lips and waved me off. "Oh is that how you're feeling?" I laugh. "Mhmm" she said turning on my TV.
"Chris wake up" Naiya whispers shaking me violently. "What?" I groan scratching dandruff out of my hair. "I'm--" she pauses. "You're out of your mind for waking me up? Yeah you're right" I smile. "I'm pregnant" she sighs, i can hear her voice crack. She shows me a pregnancy stick.
Its positive. "What are we going to do? I'm really not comfortable with abortion" she cries. "Princess don't cry" I assure tucking a few stray strands of hair behind her ear. "How can I not cry baby?" She yelps grabbing her knees. "Imma show you"
I pull up my shorts and grab 3 shoeboxes from my closet. "3 shoeboxes of weed is not going to make me feel better" she pouts. "I don't have weed, I'm a good kid" I open the shoeboxes revealing stacks on stacks of money. "Chris what did I tell you about getting caught up in Donny's little 'activities'?" She questioned getting angry.
"Babe I've been working at champs since Freshman summer... shit racks up, we'll buy a little pad buy our kid some clothes and then we both got to hustle" I say reassuring her. "But don't you want to go to college?" She asks. "Not really, it'd be nice but niggas out here working without college degrees and as long as you and my son are taken care of I'm chillin". "How you know its a boy?". "I just really want a boy" i laugh. "We got this okay? We just got to bust ass" We pinky swear and leave off with a reassuring hug.
