The Defendant is found...
It was court time, lord knows I just can't wait to get this over with and be with my son and wife.
I can't wait to be free...
I was just sitting down waiting for the judge to appear, so all I could do is think.
I know my lawyer got me.
He a real one, worth every penny.
Little aug needs me more than ever and I have to be there more than ever.
"All rise, this court is now in session."
I stood as the judge entered the court room.
I wasn't paying attention to what was going on, I probably dozed off up until I heard the judge bang the gavel.
my lawyer stood and picked up his brief case and I stood right along with him and he grabbed my hand and shook it with a smile.
I smiled back in confusion and glanced at nicki who was grinning hard as hell.
"so i'm good to go?" I asked.
"yess, it was nice working with you.. a pleasure." he said dancing a little.
I looked at him weird, this nigga must be off a molly or just happy we beat the case.
I smiled at nicki, I prayed for this day to come.
I never knew when, you have to be patient when it comes to the lord.
he answers prayers, nothing goes unheard/unanswered.
remember that.

we pulled into the driveway, honey and YG was standing in the grass.
Honey was holding Little aug, he rested his head on her shoulder.
Chills just instantly started rushing in.
what if my son doesn't remember me?
as soon as nicki cut off the car I jumped out and ran over to auggie
honey handed him to me, "he's looking just like his daddy."
I smiled, "daddies here man."
"you know I been looking out for your fam homie, I was holdin it down for u bruh. I couldn't pick up that phone or write a letter because you know the feds on to me." YG said
I shrugged, "oh no I understand but thank you bruh."
Nicki walked into the house and I followed.
"daddy missed you boy!" I said bouncing him.
he seemed too tired but I didn't want to let him go.
Nicki was in the kitchen grabbing a bottle of water.
it didn't have the same aroma it usually has when I walk through the door, It smelt minty.
"smells good, what do you want to do for his first birthday?" I asked her.
she looked at me, "I was hoping you had something in mind, since you're his father."
I kissed his forehead and glanced at all of the spider-man toys placed everywhere, "spider-man themed."
she smiled, "great minds think alike."
honey and YG walked in with chris following.
"look who came." YG said.
"Glad to see, my main man free." he sang.
I smiled, "what's up bruh?"
"nothing just checking up on my family, we need to talk about something though." he said laying on the couch with his shoes on.
"you must walk through my door ready to start some shit with me." nicki said with her hands on her hips.
I chuckled, "what you doing man? shoes off at the door, and don't put your feet on the furniture. I know mama brown taught you better than this."
chris sucked his teeth and tossed his jays, "just trying to get comfy."
Honey broke the tension, "excited for grand opening."
"ME TOO! when you going to make my little office so I can shave bitches punani's in there?" YG asked.
Nicki laughed, "NEVER!"
"why, plenty woman want a man to shave that bush." he said.
"okay, when men start coming in requesting to get their booty holes shaved." chris joked.
I laughed so hard little aug jumped.
"I'm sorry man." I said.
" excuse me, let me put him in the bed." I said walking to the back.
"Ok."
I never take moments like this for granted.
my boys, my girl, her girl, and my child.
all in the same presence.
I prayed for days like this when I was locked away.
I prayed for plenty of things.
I laid auggie down and covered him with his spider-man blanket.
he was sound asleep, I wish sevyn was still here.
she was apart of the family too, we all have our ups and downs but we all had to stick together. especially since there was my mini me keeping us together.
I always loved her, she was my best friend before a baby got into the picture.
we was always close but now she's gone.
