"Daddy look! I did it!", Tiana jumps up and down and I high five her. She's been trying to get this 300 piece puzzle together for a week now.

"That's good baby girl. What is it Alice in Wonderland?", I ask her. She nods and smiles big. Mom walks in with Grandpa and they look around the living room.

"Where is your sister? I haven't seen her since earlier yesterday night.", Mom complains.

"I'm pretty sure she's just out having fun. My baby girl know not to act dumb.", Grandpa replies picking up Tiana.

Mom folds her arms and pouts. I smile at her and she smiles back. A black BMW pulls up in the driveway and I get up. "This is probably her and her boyfriend now.", I tell them.

Grandpa stands up and beats me out of the door. Jordan was about to knock on the door until Grandpa opened it.

"Where is my grand baby?", Grandpa asks him with a attitude.

"Um Sir that is what I'm trying to find out.", Jordan replies. I look at him like he got two heads.

"You don't know where my sister is? Didn't she leave with you?", I ask him getting Mad.

He rubs his face and looks around. "She got mad at me and left.", he tells us. Grandpa pulls out his phone and takes a picture of Jordan. We both look at him wondering why he did that.

"In case anything happen to my granddaughter, God forbid. I'll know who you are.", He says mugging him.

"Hey guys.", We all look over and Niya is on Daren back smiling. Jordan gives her a look and she rolls her eyes at him.

"Where have you been?", Grandpa asks her.

"Oh I hung out with Daren. Awe you guys were worried about me. I feel so loved.", she says happily.

I scowl and flag her off. "Yeah yeah don't flatter yourself. Mom wants you", Niya nods and Daren walks into the house with her on his back.

"Well she still mad at me so. I'll see y'all another time.", Jordan says walking off. Nigga look like he about to cry. I walk back into the house and Mom was showing Aniya the pictures that came back from her party.

"That's all you wanted her for?", I ask her. Mom looks my way and nods.

"Angela you called her home for that?", Grandpa asks her. Mom takes the pictures and goes upstairs. Grandpa sighs and slaps his head. "I forgot how sensitive she was. Let me go baby her now."

Daren starts laughing and Niya hits his chest. He gives her a look and she starts giggling. I look between the both of them and notice something different. They both look back at me with a slight smile on their faces.

"What did y'all do?", I ask already knowing something was up. Niya gets up and walks out of the living room backwards. "Why are you- never mind y'all dumb"

"We just had some fun last night. That's all.", Daren says smirking. I tell Tiana to go play outside with Jr and Camden. I lean forward and get in Daren face.
