The Exception

14

As I returned back to Houston with not only my crew but also mad kids I wasn't sure how this was going to work. I had called Nadya to tell her that something serious was going on and how I needed to speak with her. I was going to have to pull in a huge favor on her part and I wasn't sure that she was going to be okay with it. So when she came over for lunch I was shaking like a crack addict. I didn't know how she would take the news and I didn't want to put her in a situation where she wasn't comfortable.

Nadya, "babe what's going on, you sounded sick on the phone. where are you?"

Me, "I'm in my office. Can you come please"

Nadya, "Babe what's going on?"

Me, "Come sit, I need to ask you something really important"

Nadya, "Okay, but don't tell me some shit about how you're sorry about cheating. if it's bad then don't tell me at all"

me, "No never the case, you know that I got something speical for you and I'm not gonna mess that up for nothing"

Nadya, "Okay, so what's goin on, you're making me nervous"

Me, "okay so I recently learned of some drama with my family and I've got a huge favor to ask you"

Nadya, "What happened? Is everyone okay?"

Me, "Well my mom's in the hospital back in Maryland and I had one of my sisters watchin my two brothers kids but she's in some shit that's not good for the kids.  So I had to bring them down here"

Nadya, "Oh My God, where are they? I wanna see them"

Me, "Nadya look I gotta head on the road for some work stuff and I can't take all of them. So I was wondering if you would be able to watch them"

Nadya, "Wait, what?"

Me, "I know that I'm asking a lot from you but I got work to do and it wouldn't be good for them to constantly travel with me. I'm not going to be long and I know that this is a lot on you but I would help you out as much as possible"

Nadya, "Babe you trust me enough to take care of kids that I've never met before, that's brave. Now you need to explain everything as to why they are here and how I fit into this"

Me, "Well my sis that was watchin them is here with me too but she's about to have a baby and her baby daddy is abusive. I don't know if he's been on the kids but I can't have them around that. I brough them down here for a minute and I need you to watch after them. my sis knows their daily schedule but she doesn't know the area, so I would need you to help her out as much as possible but she's going to have a baby soon and she can't watch over all of them, so would you mind helpin me?"

Nadya, "Okay, but I need to meet them and see if they like me. Now what about living arrangments, do you have space for all of them?"

Tia, "Uncle JJ, can you help me find the bathroom please. I have to go and potty"

Me, "TT come and meet Nadya, she's going to help Aunty out with you guys"

Tia, "Hi, my name is Tia, I like your name and you're pretty"

Nadya, "Well thank you and you're really pretty too, now I know this house is so confusing so why don't I help you find a bathroom"

Tia, "And when I'm done can you braid my hair like yours, it looks so cool"

Nadya, "Sure baby girl. I'ma hook you up Houston style"

Tia, "thank you so much. Kayla come and meet uncle friend, look at how she is gonna do my hair"

Nadya, "Hi, im Nadya, what's your name?"

Duece, "So you gon move your girl in with your bro's kids and Kia, that sounds like an interesting mix"

Me, "Yeah, well I don't have much of an option. I'ma need some peeps to stay out here with them and make sure tha Malik don't come over here. I don't want no trouble"

Deuce, "Okay, and what about mommy?"

Me, "I have to have some people up there with her too. PLus I know that Brandon's getting out soon and Travis is coming out so I'ma have to place them somewhere"

Duece, "You need to go and see them and talk to them. Like that's something that they would like"

Me. "I know but I been holdin down this Kanye shit for a minute and I need to get out there. Plus the label is pushin for me to get on some tour and with the summer coming up shit is gonna be crazy. When am I gonna have time"

Deuce, "We gotta make time, they gonna be waitin on you"

Me, "I know, but I'm feelin real worn out. I gotta call Mark cause this aint the shit that I signed up for. I took a break cause this wasn't healthy for me and now it's like constant pilin up on. I'm not here for all that"

Deuce, "Listen go and hang with your family and just enjoy them. don't think about anything else until tuesday morning, okay"

Me, "Alright
