"So, when y'all getting y'all own place?" Vier asked me. I rolled my eyes.

"Vier, if you don't want me here anymore you can just say that." I said instead of answering his question.

"I do want y'all here but seeing that you have two kids now I thought you want want your own place." he replied.

"Yeah right," I retorted. "Where is Lucas anyway?" I asked. "I'm right here." He said walking in with Liyah (in mm) on his arm and Darion walking on behind him. Lucas and I  have become so attached to her. We don't know what life would be like without  her.

"Hey babies" I said gaining a small grin from Liyah, a hug from Darion, and a kiss from Lucas.

"Wassup with you." Lucas said sitting down next to me.

"I been thinking bout finding a house for us and plus I think vier tired our asses." I said. "I didn't say that!" Vier yelled.

"Quit all that damn yelling." I said with an attitude.

"Anyway, I seen a couple nice houses not too far from here,"he said. "Them was some big ass houses and I wrote down the number on the sign just in case you brought it up." He went on.

"Ok, well imma have to give em a call one day." I said. Lucas attempted to lay Liyah down on the couch but she began to cry. He reached into her diaper bag and pulled out an empty bottle. "I got it." I said taking the bottle out of his hand and running to the kitchen to get a bottle of water.

After fixing the bottle I gave it to him and let him feed her. I heard small footsteps and soon saw Darion's face. "Hey mama" he said giving me a smile. "Hi, baby" I said to him. He tried to get up on the couch but needed a little bit of assistance. I helped him up on the couch and he sat beside me with a big smile plastered in his face. He is so adorable.

"How are today, mommy?" He asked

"How are today, mommy?" He asked.

"Mommy is wonderful today and how are you, hansdome?"

"I doing okay but I... I wanna know can you please give me some candy, mommy. I.. I don't want a lot....just a little bit, please." He asked nicely.

"Of course you can. Come to the kitchen with me." I said getting up and giving him time to do the same. I don't usually give him a lot of candy but the way he asked me. I couldn't say no. I walked in the kitchen and reached into the cabinet and grabbed his favorite candy, starburst. I opened the candy and gave him about 10. I walked back into the living room to see Lucas sleeping with Liyah in his chest. 😍😍
