" Happy birthday little man!" I boasted while picking up Isaiah. I sat him in my lap and pinched his cute little chubby cheeks, " Your one now man, your one now." I began to mimic in a little childish voice making him smile, being around this little boy has turned me into a complete other person.

" Your god mommy got you spoiled huh? You can have anything you want!" I told him. Kadia walked into the living with his diapers and wipes, and I passed him to her so she could change him.

" You know Dia, I'm really proud of you" I said with a smile on my face. She glanced at me quickly and smiled then focused back on the baby" You proud of your mama too?" She asked baby Isaiah. He smiled and giggled at her, he's such a good little baby he barely cries and is always so calm. It's hard to figure out where he got those traits from because neither of his parents are.

" The party starts at 1:30 right?" I asked her.

" Yea, it's like 10 now maybe we should start getting ready now, then we can head over to the party house at like 12 cause we gotta set up."

" Okay, yea that sounds good."

My phone began to ring and I looked down at the caller and rolled my eyes playfully. I let it ring for a few more seconds and then answered" Yes, Vonte?"

" I can't call you? Why you got an attitude?"

" I don't have an attitude" I said giggling quietly.

" You laughing too?"

I covered my mouth not knowing he heard me laughing. " No, but guess what!!" I said changing moods.

" Wassup?"

" I'm convincing my best friend Kadia, and my God baby to move to New York so they can be closer to me."

" Ooo, poor baby they gotta deal with you now all the time! She better think hard."

I rolled my eyes and pouted, how hurtful. " I'm just messing with you, so wipe that pouting shit off ya face." He cooed.

" Vonte?"

" Hmm?"

" I'm nervous as -" I stopped my self and loved over at the baby.

" You don't have any reason to be nervous, you know him more than anyone else does right?"

" Yea."

" So, just be relaxed and cordial you should be good."

I took a deep breathe and got up from the couch and into Kadia's room. Since I had already took my shower I decided to do my hair, makeup and get dressed. Now, it's important to look your best when seeing your ex because honestly you gotta show him a little of what he's missing.

" Vonte, hang up and FaceTime me I wanna see you." I told him, he agreed and then hung up, and re- answered his FaceTime call.

I sat my phone down on Kadia's vanity and picked up my makeup bag. " You bouts to get caked up?" He asked making me laugh.

" Yes I am, it's a special event."

He smacked his lips" Your god son turning 1? Yea right!"

I rolled my eyes and started to apply my primer.
" You like when I wear makeup?" I asked him.
