'' So, what's going with you and Ziare?'' Chris asked me as we repaired the bathroom sink. '' I mean we together. What's to be explained?'' I asked getting irritated about the question I was being asked. '' You getting smart? What I'm saying is what's up with all this arguing y'all doing right now?'' He asked turning around to face me.

'' Awhile back before Ziare and I , Me and Brittney was messing around she got pregnant supposedly it's mines but the girl spreads her legs for anybody who ask , so I'm not sure. Ziare got mad and more.'' I said nonchalantly trying to push the subject to end. '' Do you believe it's your's?''

'' I have my doubts about it. She being sneaky right now so I'm not getting my hopes up.'' I said handing him the screw driver to loosen some screws. '' All I have to say is fix things with my daughter and If you feel like the girl lying about having your child then you should take her to get a D.N.A test because you know these females be having they friends rig the D.N.A test cause they just so damn sneaky , but you can go now. Fix things with my daughter please.'' He dissmissed me.

'' Zi?'' I said as I knocked on her bedroom door for permisson to come in. '' What?'' She asked with a attitude. '' Can I come in? shit! obviously if I came up here than that means I wanted to  talk am I right?'' I asked kind of getting a attitude already. '' I don't want to argue with you right now so leave with that attitude.'' She said getting up and pointing out the door. 

I chuckled , walked into the room and closed the door. I don't know why I was smiling but just looking at her mad gets me turned on. Weird or nah ? That's just me. Just looking at her forhead scrunched up and her eyebrows raised , her lips pouted and her cheeks get red. It's cute.

'' What are you smiling at?'' She asked as she shifted her weight to her left foot. '' I just like when your mad , It turns me on.'' I laughed. ''Boy.'' She smacked her lips and sat down. ''I know you want to smile so you can stop trying to be mad at me. You know I can't change Brittney being pregnant and I'm sorry you feel the way that you feel and you know I'm trying my best to make you happy but I'm going through things I have to deal with. Let me handle this and all I need you to do Is be there by my side as I make the decisions that I will later make. Is that fine with you?''

'' Yeah It's fine with me , I just don't have that feeling that It's your baby but whatever I could be wrong.'' She pouted as she looked into my eyes. '' Let's not worry about that right now okay? Now lets go play with Zaytreon I missed lil dude.'' I said grabbing Ziare's hand and walking out the door.

'' Look what I made! '' Zay said in excitement in his voice. '' OH, What Is it?'' Zi asked as she also built a lego building. '' It's a house silly.'' He laughed and poked her nose. '' I don't know about y'all but I swear my lego man rich as hell.'' I said while jigging to the beat in my head. '' Watch your mouth.'' Zay said hitting me on the back of the head. '' Ouch! Boy get popped.'' I laughed as I jumped at him.

As we were playing around someone was beating at the door like they were the police. I don't know who they think they are but you come to my door banging like that you gone get a couple shells shooting at ya ass. I don't like all that banging on people doors stuff.

''Well are you going to go answer that?'' Ziare asked as she was putting the legos back in the bin. '' I don' live here.'' I said before more beating at the door came back into hearing. '' Please?'' She begged. '' Fine.''

''Yes?'' I asked confused as I opened up the door wondering what was going on and why they were here on this door-step. I hope they not here because they saw the dollar store tapes of me stealing some candy. I was off that dope and I left my wallet in Zi car. It wasn't even my fault though , You know what I don't even think that was me stealing the candy It had to have been a roach or something. I'm not going down for something  I didn't do.

''Is Chris Channing here?'' One of the officers asked me as he looked me up and down and mugged me. '' What's going on?'' Ziare asked as she came up to the door as she peeked her head around my shoulder.

''Is Chris Channing here or not?'' The other officer asked getting irritated. '' Daddy.'' Zi yelled. '' What I tell you about being so loud?'' Chris said as he came into eye sight of the officer.

'' Your Chris Channing?'' The officer asked. ''Yes I am , can I help you?''

''Yes. Your under arrest for the murder of Karisma Sanders. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be used against you in a court of law. You have a right to an attorney,If you cannot afford an attorney , one will be appointed for you.'' The officer read off his miranda rights as he hand cuffed Chris and took him out the house.

'' Dad?'' Zi yelled as she ran after Chris. '' No , baby I promise to you I would never do something like that. They have it all wrong. I promise I'll be out soon. I will call you tonight , hold your head up baby. Hold things down.'' Chris said to us as he was being pushed into the back seat of the car.
