Down For The Ride

Chapter 43

Christmas Morning

Shae

I woke up to the sound of my crying kids. It was around 7:30 in the morning. I dragged my tires ass out the bed and went into their room.

"Merry Christmas y'all. Why y'all up so early?" They both looked up at me with their big brown eyes.

Since I was already in front of Killian's crib I picked him up first and changed his dirty diaper. I laid him back down and changed Kalei. I carried them both in the living room, laying them in the rockers.

I made the both a bottle and feed them. I'm not going to lie and say it's easy taking care of twins cause it's not. I had to learn how to do two things at once.

"Merry Christmas y'all." Brook said as she took a seat beside me on the couch. She got Kalei out her rocker and helped me feed her.

"Merry Christmas to you too and thanks. My arm was getting tired of reaching." We both laughed.

"Yo what the fuck!" She yelled.

I looked down and notice Kalei threw up all over her. I couldn't help but laugh. "Kalei you eat too much." She said as she put her back in her rocker.

"I'll be back Ima change my shirt." She got up and ran into her room.

"Mommy's fat fat made a mess on Auntie Brook." I giggled while burping her. It's not funny but then again it is.

Jason

"Marissa, I don't feel comfortable bringing you back around the family so I think it's best if you don't come today."

"But I think it'll be a good idea. I wanna meet your mom and dad. The right way this time." She whined.

"Look Marissa! I was trying to be nice cause it's too early in the morning for my meanness. I'm not feeling the relationship anymore so it's over." I yelled through the phone.

"Alright Jason. I understand." She hung up.

It's 8 in the morning and she had been blowing up my phone asking what to wear to the Christmas party. I didn't wanna break up with her like that but she was getting on my nerves.

I got out the bed and went into my bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face. After that I went downstairs to find something to eat. Sadly, I forgot to go shopping.

I slipped on my Nike slides and grabbed my keys. A nigga gotta eat.

"Jason what do you want?" My dad asked as he answered the door. I invited myself in and walked straight to the kitchen.

"Well Merry Christmas to you too dad. What's for breakfast?" I took a seat at the island and sat there patiently as if I was a kid.

"Nothing. Now go home." I felt a tug on my ear then I hit the ground. Ugh dad!

"Shit mad. That hurt like a bitch! Where mama dukes at?" I said rubbing my ear.

"Watch your mouth boy and I'm right here." Sure enough she came walking down the stairs. I gave her a hug. "Merry Christmas Mommy." She laughed. "Merry Christmas Jason. What brings you by this early?"

"I didn't go food shopping." She laughed.

"Have a seat. I'll make you an omelette." See! This is why I love my momma. She never lets her baby boy go hungry. Unlike dad who would love to see me die of starvation.

Fast Forwarding to the Christmas Party

"Brook what are you wearing?" She had on a white shirt with a green sweater on top. A green skirt and white and red reindeer tights and red pumps.
