Chapter 8 : 7 Years

Nicki's POV.

It's been 3 years since Meek officially sent that text . Papi & Nylah are now 7  years old , while their twin brother Jeremiah & sister Lylah is 3 . I heard meek and Fah got married , while I was stuck raising my kids , Papi lives with them but since I moved closer , he always visit .

J&Ly: Mommy , door !

I walked downstairs with the twins , and to the door . I opened the door and was instantly shocked .

" What are you doing here ? "

M: I came for papi , is he here ?

" Pap your dad is here ", He came in with Nylah .

P: Please can I stay ?

Before he could reply Fah came to the door , I looked at meek to see him staring at Nylah .

" Is there a reason your staring at her ? "

M: I can't look at my daughter ?

" Now she's your daughter ? "

P: Mommy I'll just go , ion want no stress on you , He came to me & kissed my cheek . " I love you okay " .

" I love you to pap " , He went to Nylah gave her a hug , & kissed her forehead , then went to the twins and kissed theirs . He walked out & got in the car . Once they left , I broke down.

Papi's POV.

As we were driving I couldn't stop thinking about my family , why is my dad treating them like that ? How could he treat Nylah like that , he's hasn't been in her life but now wanna come back in after 7 years ? I leaned my head back & started singing my song 7 years 🍃💕 .

" Once I was seven years old, my mama told me,
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely."
Once I was seven years old ...

It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger,
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker,
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor,
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure,

Once I was eleven years old, my daddy told me,
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely."
Once I was eleven years old...

I always had that dream, like my daddy before me,
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories,
Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me,
'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me..

Once I was twenty years old, my story got told,
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely,
Once I was twenty years old...

I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure,
'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major,
I got my boys with me, at least those in favor,
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later...

Once I was twenty years old, my story got told,
I was writing about everything I saw before me,
Once I was twenty years old...

Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold,
We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming,
Soon we'll be thirty years old...

I'm still learning about life
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs
And I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me
Some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
My brother, I'm still sorry..

Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one,
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once,
I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month...

Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old

Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold,
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old

Once I was seven years old, my mama told me,
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely."
Once I was seven years old

Once I was seven years old .

I looked up and began to pray , " God please protect them " 🍃💕🙏
