Kehlani's POV

"MOMMY yurrr hairrr!" Carti said as the lady finished cutting off the last bit.

"O.M.G you don't like it?" I said opening my mouth wide and putting my hands over my face.

"Mmmmmm to be re? I luh it mama." She said shrugging. She was such a drama queen. "Wha about my hairrr!?" She said. She got it flat ironed. I snapped a picture and sent it to Bryson, he was gone love it.

"I freaking LOVE IT!" I said getting up from the chair and tickling her all over. After she got enough, I looked in the mirror to see my short cut, it was beautiful. I can honestly say she did a good job, she even added a hint of burgundy. I handed her $360 and headed to drop Carti off at one of my trusted family friend's house.

Once we pulled up, I unbuckled Carti and got all of her bags. She was very spoiled; therefore she needed all her materials to stay 1 night. This included 3 of her favorite dolls plus the one she had in her hand, food, clothes, her bear, night jewelry, her small game, covers, and wrapping stuff for her hair. She walked to the door and opened it.

"Auntie Vicky." She said rubbing her eyes, "I'm tired." Vicky picked her up from the floor and placed her on her hip. She was one of those "Family Members" that everyone calls mom or granny, to Carti aunt Vicky because she's  oppositional defiant. Vicky was my dads God mom, she raised him and me. Her and my mom were aquatinted.

"Okay lil mama I gotchu and your hair is just beautiful princess." she said pinching Carti's cheek. Carti put her head on Aunt Vicky's shoulder. "Lemme get this lil one to bed." she said pointing to the back.

"Alright love you." I said waving and going out the door.

"Love you too baby girl thanks for stopping by." she waved back and proceeded to close the door behind me. "Wait." I said trying to catch her before she closed the door.

She opened the door with Carti still in her hands. "Yes mama?" She said with her accent, "What worries you?" I knew something was up.

"I need to talk to you V can I come in for a sec?" I said feeling bad. After all I've been through Vicky has been there to support me like I was her own child, she was an odyssey. But I know right that sum ain't right.

Speaking urgently, "Why has my dad been calling me?"

"He simply feels bad and you should understand that from his point of view." Vicky said not wanting to talk about it.

"What's there to understand V? No matter how hard life gets you don't leave your child behind especially if that's all he or she got." I said pointing to myself and turning red.

"Lani it was more than that and you should know it."

"I don't know anything except that he's a deadbeat, I don't wanna talk to him and if he's staying with you I don't want him around Carti. Shall I take her?" I said walking further into the house. "He ain't no where around here." V said crossing her arms and giving me that look. "You need to stop tryna run my house and get you some business, walk away Novia."

"I'm not your little girl nomore mama so don't talk to me like that." I said taking a risk.

"Well don't come up to my house questioning me for answers that you already know yourself. Everything in life might not have been perfect between y'all two but that's still your daddy and he has a right to reach out to you. It's your job to listen, whether you run with it or not."
