Grind and Pray

XXXVII

                                Atlanta (Wednesday)
"Chuckii P.O.V": Right about now, it's five in the morning and i'm just now getting in. I had to put in a few extra hours in the studio. As i'm walking into the house I heard a throat clear and I chuckled once I realized who it was.

Chuckii: Snoop.
Snoop: Wassup mane.
Chuckii: Why you up so early?
Snoop: School. A brother gotta go get this education. Why you coming in so late?
Chuckii: Late night in the studio. Yo sister up?
Snoop: Hope? Nah. But she'll be up soon. She's taking us to school.
Chuckii: I'll take ya'll. She need her sleep. We got a appointment at ten.
Snoop: Aight. For the baby?
Chuckii: Yeah. I still can't believe she's pregnant.
Snoop: Aye you better do right by my sister.
Pablo: *clears throat* Cause if you don't, then you already know wassup.
Chuckii: good morning to you too Pablo.
Pablo: Mhm.

I made my way towards the stairs. As I walked up, Alycia was walking down. (Alycia outfit down below)

She pushed me a little laughing, damn my little sister play too damn much in the morning. I hurried to the room. I saw Hope tossing and turning so, I kissed her forhead. Her eyes flickered open.

Hope: Angel baby.
Chuckii: Yeah. Listen, i'm gonna take the kids to school get some sleep okay.
Hope: Okay. Love you.
Chuckii: Love you too baby girl.

I headed out the room and down the hall towards the stairs. But, then Tiff stepped out the room dressed. (Tiff outfit down below)

She looked at the ground once we made eye contact.

Chuckii: You going to school to?
Tiff: I have an appointment set up with the principal.
Chuckii: Okay, and just tell her you're with me. Also, try avoid telling her that you're a runaway.
Tiff: Okay.
Chuckii: Come on, lets go.

We both headed downstairs to find Alycia glued to her phone with her earbuds in. I could hear the music she was listening to I ain't know the artist. So i made movements with my hands.

Chuckii: What are you listening to?
Alycia: Two Weeks by FKA twigs.
Chuckii: Oh aight. Well come on lets go.

We all headed out to the car and then to the school. I told everyone to have a good day including Tiff. Now i'm on my way home. As soon as i walked in, the smell of pancakes, syrup, and bacon hit a nigga nose. I walked into the kithen to be greeted by a smiling Hope. I kissed her cheek and grabbed a piece of bacon.

Hope: How was the studio?
Chuckii: It was good. Sorry, about...
Hope: It's okay. I'm not going to complain.
Chuckii: You sure?
Hope: Yept.
Chuckii: How are you?
Hope: I'm doing fine. Just tired of this morning sickness thing already.
Chuckii: *chuckles* You'll be fine.

Hope fixed my plate before sitting it down on the counter infront of me.

Hope: Eat up, so you can shower and sleep.
Chuckii: Yes ma'am. *chuckles* Oh yeah, moms suppose to be coming by in a few.
Hope: Okay.
Chuckii: Can you guys try not to kill each other while I sleep?
Hope: I'll try babe.

Hope walked into the room then came back putting her hair up into a messy bun. Damn i'm falling in love with this girl for real. Let's send the center of attention over to Nasier (Ni).

"Nasier P.O.V": I ain't go to school today, but i'm laying down scrolling through the gram when my mind switched to a image of Becca in my head. Damn i miss her. I texted the one number, i knew she could text from. Her brother girlfriend number.

#text convo#
Me: Hey, is Becca around?
Hope: No. Sorry. I'll let her know you texted when she gets home.
Me: ok.
#end of text convo#

Damn. I miss texting her, damn. Why she gotta be so far? I know nigga down there already droolin' over her. I just hope she not that type of girl, you feel me? I got outta bed living my phone on the bed since i need to shower.

#a hour later#

I'm sitting on the porch with my brothers talking when Alfonzo turned his head.

Alfonzo: Ni, what happened to ol' girl?
Nasier: Becca?
Gabe: Thats the one that dropped you off the other...
Nasier: Yeah. Nah, she moved to Atlanta.
Alfonzo: And you still fuckin' with her?
Nasier: Yeah. Ion see the problem bruh fo'real. Like Gabe moving back to ATL, thats why he's getting married there.
Gabe: Aye, if you feeling her you can come.
Nasier: aight.
Gabe: she know that you leaving for the marines?
Nasier: Not yet.
Alfonzo: And don't tell her lil brah, she ain't gone hold ya down while you outchere fightin and shit.
Gabe: Fonzo nigga shut up.
Alfonzo: I'm just saying.
Nasier: I'ma tell her when i feel like it and when she let a kid know that she feeling me deeply like possibly love.
Gabe: thought you wasn't going to love no girl afta yo first.
Nasier: i wasn't going to, but she different.
Gabe: I feel ya. Aye do what you want, you damn near grown.
Alfonzo: Mane its ya last year enjoy these hoes while they still fresh, and you going to prom.
Nasier: Fonzo not errone want to fuck different bitches all they life. I wanna be tied down. I wanna have a reason to come home otha' then yall.
Gabe: I'm a lil hurt but i'ma respect that *chuckles*
Nasier: Yeah. How's Kiyah?
Gabe: She good. Her hormones errwhere, but she home at her parents.
Nasier: We still ain't meet them.
Gabe: You'll see em' at the wedding saturday.
Nasier: if you say so.

I stood so i could get ready to check the mailbox, just then some chick jumped out her car with a bat in hand.

Niji: Foreal Alfonzo? YOU BEEN SLEEPING WITH MY BESTFRIEND!

She began running up the yardway and Alfonzo ran in the house while Gabe held her back.

Gabe: What the fuck going on?
Niji: Yo fucking brother been sleeping with my bestfriend but little does he know that i'm pregnant with his child.
Gabe: Pregnant? With Alfonzo kid? Nah that ain't possible.
Niji: *pulls sonogram out of back pocket* I'm four weeks.

       Alfonzo came out the house. Babe continued holding Niji back, why Alfonzo fuckin with crazy girls? I thought he learned his fuckin lesson after some chick named Lisa.
