Naz POV :
I woke up to a phone ringing. My head was hurting and I was laying in the kitchen with Ce-Lo, after I seen the note my mom left me I cried and Ce-Lo was right with me. My mom basically raised Ce-Lo like he was hers only because his mom wasn't as understanding as she should've been. I picked up the ringing phone. It was 8:44am on a Sunday. I really wanted to figure out who was calling Ce-Lo this damn early. I looked at the name and kissed my teeth. Does Nicole even sleep? Shit. This girl ain't even let Ce-Lo sleep a night. I started to hear Diana cry. Shittt I semi yelled. " Man Wake Up " I kicked Ce-lo so he can wake up. Your girlfriend called you 100 times. I think she might send a search warrant after ya'. I smirked and went upstairs. I had to admit, I'm heart broken my mom is gone. I mean she never even told me any information on the cancer. She never showed me any signs. I was getting frustrated thinking about it. I mean it's a good feeling to have everything for myself. The money the cars and the house. But she ain't even gon' see me walk the stage. Or get me ready for prom. I felt myself tearing up. But I was cut when Azariah opened the door. " hey" she said smiling. " hi beauty, Uhm you just waking up?"
" uh yeah, I just gotta feed her, then change her. Do you have any fruits?"
" yea-yeah in the fridge left hand side".
" you alright? " when she said that. I wanted to break down. I nodded my head and stepped to the other side. She grabbed Diana and made her way downstairs.
Ce-Lo !!! I yelled. " WHAT?" He replied. " Do not open that front door !" I said running down the stairs. I seen Nicole walking with Zammi on her side through the window. And I refuse to let these annoying broads in my house. Not under my damn watch. I never even got to do my damn hygiene shit. I was already mad. I made it to the end of the stairs on time cause they began to knock. " what yall want!?" I yelled. " I know ce-lo in that house with a next bitch. So he better open this door!" I swung open the door and pushed her back before she can even step in. " man shutup. He ain't in here with no dang girl. So you and Zammi need to get the fuck off my doorstep for I start kicking y'all ass. " I was already upset that my mom was dead. Kalies in a coma & now these broads on my doorstep? " so who that in your kitchen, I seen hair and that's not Ce-Lo's dry head for sure!" Zammi spat.
" who you calling dry head hood rat?" Ce-lo said to Zammi.
" you and that bitch you guys got up in there prolly doing a threesome that why y'all ain't answer the phone! "
Before I could even reply Azariah came out and punched Zammi right in her mouth. SHIT I wasn't ready for that cause now Zammi on the floor and Nicole ain't even tryna ride out. " get inside I yelled at Azariah. & I told y'all get off my damn doorstep! ce-lo get your dang girl off my doorstep now! I'm tired of seeing these lil girls. Get them to stepping!" I was so mad I was saying anything. When they finally got up and Ce-lo brought them home I walked into the living room seeing Azariah eating and watching tv with Diana like everything was fine. " why would you do that Azariah. "
" & who she calling dry headed? Defiantly not me. I will not take talks from any girl. That's a fact " she said popping a strawberry in her mouth.
" ohkay but those GIRLS are going to the same school as you so you already have enemies"
" listen. I really don't care ohkay? Like literally I'll beat anyone's ass no matter the gender so don't worry."
She got up and wrapped her arms around me kissing me, I was shocked but she knew what she was doing. I pulled away and smirked walking upstairs leaving her downstairs with Diana. I need to smoke but first I had to do my hygiene. I walked passed my moms room and sighed. I decided to walk in there and go through her stuff just so I was able to figure out which type of cancer she had atleast. I was in her bags, her dresser draws but I didn't find nothing. I went to her bathroom and looked in the cabinets but still nothing. I turned around and seen a blue bag, I opened it and there was just a bunch of money in it. If she had cancer why she ain't tell me? & most importantly. Where the hell her medication at? Wait how she get to the hospital? Did the ambulance pick her up from work? Wouldn't they have called me or something.. I mean Ms. Gena some lady that works with my mom knows about me. I slept with her daughter I chuckled to myself when that flashback slipped through my head. I was starting to get curious. I decided to call my moms workplace.
*Phone Convo*
Secretary: Hello Thank You For Calling Blue Herons Financial How May I Help You Today?
Naz: Hey Uhm, may I speak to Ms. gena, na I don't have an appointment but it's real important.
Secretary: Sure I can transfer you right away okay sir?
Naz: Thank You.
The line went quiet until Ms. Gena came on the phone a few minutes later.
Gena: Hello Who's This?
Naz: hey Ms.Gena it's Naz I was calling to figure out what happened to my mom yesterday at work.. do you know anything seeing that you guys are close?
Gena: uh ya momma ain't come in for her shift yesterday hunny. I took her shift, they said you was sick so she stayed home with you. Is everything ohkay? Did she come home last night? Wait was she even with-
* Phone Convo Ended*
I cut her off and hung up. So you mean to tell me this liar ain't dead but instead she out somewhere in the world and basically abandoned me?
About 30 minutes later after doing my hygiene I decided to text Taione to see what he was up to today. I was stressed out so I decided to stay in my room & smoke. I heard little foot steps coming up my stairs and giggling. I outed my blunt and opened the door to see lil D laughing infront of me with cookies in her hands. " guess what kinda cookies I got?" She said. I could already detect it was Oreos since this my house and that's what I bought but I played along as if I didn't know. mhm lemme guess, rainbow? I replied to her. " nope! Oreos" she said smiling. common let's go get you some water and clean you up. We was almost in the kitchen when lil D stopped in her tracks to stare at the tv "momma can I get dolly?" She said jumpin up and down. I was taken back by what she said knowingly that Azariah is just her older sister. But the look on both they faces was telling me otherwise. "I can't get you that just yet ohkay Diana?" but it's so pretty she began rambling before she started crying. lil mama was so cute I couldn't say no to ha. "how bout this? When I come back I'll bring you to Kmart & you can get all the toys you want ii baby D?" I said whispering to her. She wiped her tears quickly and began smiling.
I left her with her glass of water while I went upstairs to freshen up & to go see Kalie. I mean I'm sad she got into a accident. But I just wish she could wake up cause it wasn't the right time for her to go.
About 45 minutes later I went downstairs to grab lil D to get her ready, I decided on bringing her out with me cause I wanted to kick it with her for a bit. "my mommy usually combs my hair. She puts puff puff and bubbles, MOMMY comb hair!" She yelled at the top of her lungs. I heard A coming up the stairs with a weird look on her face. "what are you doing with my chil- sister, & where y'all going?" I looked straight in Azariah's eyes trying to figure out why she was lying to me. It was quiet obvious that lil D is her daughter. "so you just gon stand here and lie to my face?"
"Diana go get your shoes on and your dollys pack so Naz can bring you out".
We watched as she left the room before I closed the door turning back to azariah who looked speechless.
" explain yourself. "
" Naz, I didn't-"
"Damn A, stop fucking lying and just tell me."
" she's my daughter. "
" so you lied to me. You was about to abandon your own daughter? In a crazy ass house?"
" you don't understand Naz. You're rich living the good life. I nev-"
" shutup A, it don't matter what life I'm livin'. If I decide to take you under my wing I gotta take all your baggage you come with. Even if it does involve Diana". With that I left the room, I seen Diana downstairs with her hands on the cookie jar. " common baby we gotta long ride" I said to her. I grabbed her hand and headed to my car.
" hey what bout my hair? & my mommy? Is she coming too?" I looked over at her & sighed knowing I should've told Amiyah where I was going. But it wasn't a big deal anyways seeing as see didn't care about Diana in the first place. " look we're gonna go shopping for your new room & toys ohkay?" She jumped up and down and ran to the car. That should get her mind off things I mumbled.
