"DJ P.O.V": I'm currently walking into the babershop and every saying wassup and shit.

DJ: Mo can you clean me up?
Mo: yeah, lemme go get my clippers from the back.

     I took a seat in his chair and had conversation with the boys.

Kevin: Nah, chick had a fat ass.
DJ: Who?
Kevin: Some hispanic chick the work down at the hair salon.
DJ: Why, you ain't tryna hit that?
Kevin: DJ, she hispanic. I like em crazy but not that type of crazy.
DJ: *chuckles* you just gotta know how to handle they ass. Hispanic girls, they like that aggressive shit. They like when a nigga in control.
Kevin: kid you aint never date no hispanic.
DJ: Never Dated one, but i did fuck with one
Kevin: Word, but how you and ol' girl?
DJ: Ol' girl?
Kevin: The one with the brother. And her brother real tall and you brought him to get a haircut that one time.
DJ: Hope.
Kevin: yeah, wassup with yah'll?
DJ: Oh we good.
Mo: *walks through the back door* now why you lying.
DJ: what?
Mo: I know she dumped you & she datin' that rap nigga.
Kevin: Wait, DJ you lost her to some rap nigga.
DJ: Yeah and how you know that Mo?
Mo: All on the news. Especially with them leaving out the hospital together.

      My facial expression tightened and i just got mad ass fuck because this fuck nigga really with my girl. See this shit ain't cool at all. Mo cleaned me up and i said my see ya later to the guys. Then, made my way down to the hair salon. I knew exactly who Kevin was talking about. All the women looked at me.

Shaniq: Can i help you?
DJ: yeah, Erica here?
Shaniq: ERICA!

     Erica came from out the back with a box of hair products. She sat them down and walked over to me.

Erica: What are you doing here?
DJ: I need to talk to you.

      She turned and looked at Shaniq, then pulled me outside the salon.

Erica: Okay, what you want DJ?
DJ: So when can i see my kid?
Erica: Oh, so now you wanna see yo kid. Why, should i let you see her. You're not about to fuck up me or my daughter life.
DJ: I'm tryna fix shit and you trippin'.
Erica: Because i'm not the only chick that got knocked up by you.
DJ: what you mean?
Erica: You really need to learn how to stop fucking hoes without protection.
DJ: Aight, but i ain't worried bout' them. I wanna see my daughter i created with you.
Erica: How about you go talk to all your other baby mamas & then come talk to me about our child. Oh yeah, and if you don't know who your baby mamas are you have Marie, Lanie, and Sarah. I'm cool with every single one of the. You have three girls and one boy. I should really put yo ass on child support but i'm not that type of female.

       Erica began walking away and i grabbed her by her arm.

DJ: You better have me some food cooked when i get there later.

       She snatched her arm away from me and lemme just say i see why i knocked her up. I then got in my car & headed to Lanie house. No matter, what, all of my kids gone have my last. If they don't i'ma make them change the kids last name. Lanie stood when she saw me pull up. She picked up a little girl and began walking towards the porch steps.

DJ: Lanie stay right there.

     She look like she froze in space. I grabbed the little girl from Lanie. Damn she look like me a little.

DJ: So when were you going to tell me.
Lanie: I was uhm going to.
DJ: How old is she?
Lanie: Almost two.
DJ: What's her name?
Lanie: Liv.
DJ: Liv what?
Lanie: Liv Monaé Johnson. Your mom has her monday through wednesday for the week.
DJ: *chuckles* So you was gonna tell me, when...
Lanie: Whenever she decided to ask about you.
DJ: You better text me a schedule for me to see her.
Lanie: Okay.
DJ: And take yo ass in the house. Don't be having her outside like this.

      I handed Liv back to Laine and watched how Lanie hurried into the house. I hopped in my car and headed to Marie house. I headed to the elevator, and hit the fourth floor. When, i got there Marie was unlocking her door with a baby carseat sitting on the ground by the door. I began walking down the hall and she tried to hurry into the apartment but i put my foot in the way of the door. I walked in and closed the door.

Marie: Why....why are you here?
DJ: You gonna...
Marie: I...I....I had a boy.
DJ: Marie, i thought you was more understanding than this. Ms.College student.
Marie: more understanding? DJ you raped me and i had your child. I had to drop out of school because i didnt have enough money, i was pregnant, and my grades was slipping.
DJ: Raped? I ain't rape you. You knew exactly what you were doing. We was both at that frat party. You was drunk and went down on me. You was the one that sucked my dick, i aint force you to.
Marie: Whatever *picks up babyboy and takes him to his crib & then comes back*
DJ: Come here.
Marie: Why?

     I grabbed Marie by her neck and pinned her up against the wall. I kissed her and slipped my free hand into her pants. She grasped and slid my tongue in her mouth and she kissed me back. I then stopped and grabbed my keys off her counter.

Marie: Where you going?
DJ:  i gotta go see my daughter.
Marie: Which one?
DJ: Shit ain't funny Marie.

     I headed out and to my car. Time to drive all the way to Sarah fuckin house. But see Sarah got a white nigga now. I pulled up to their house and Sarah ran up the drive way with baby girl following after her.

DJ: Sarah don't.

      She stopped and turned around.

Sarah: Angelina!

       Babygirl stood behind Sarah, Sarah pulled her infront of her.

DJ: *bends down* Hey Angel.
Angelina: Hi.
DJ: How old are you?
Angelie: *holds up 3 fingers*
Sarah: Angel go in the house.

        Babygirl ran in the house.

Sarah: I don't want you in her life. She is doing just find with me and Erin. Stay away DJ. I will put a straning order against you if you don't leave and let us be.
DJ: Aight.

      I got in my car and headed to Erica house because if i ever wife any of my baby moms, it'd be Erica. If i were to get one of my baby moms knocked up again it would be Marie.
