Naya🥂

Direct Message from: @Lalasworld
Pulling in now w/ Serenity and her mom.

"Okay, be nice to this girl please." I said to Nyla knowing she didn't like her.

"Lemme get five dollars, and I'll think about it." She said with her hand out.

I tapped at my belt and she looked at me.

"Is it even legal for you to beat me as much as you do?" She asked.

"Girl, please hush. I don't even beat you at all, i just threaten too." I said trying not to burst out in laughter.

"Mula?" I heard Laura say. I turned around to guide her to our table.

"I'm Naya, and this is Nyla." I said introducing us to everyone at the table.

"I'm Serenity , this my momma, and this my auntie LaLa well Laura." The little girl said.

"They mouth must be broke?" Nyla asked giving the girl a mean mug.

"Serenity and Nyla don't get along at daycare either." Laura added.

"I apologize for her." Me and Carson said in unison. We laughed after that.

It got really awkward for a minute. Till a certain someone called, and made shit worst.

I tried to hurry and turn the ringer off but Nyla already saw it.

"Mama! That's Jordan! Lemme talk to him."

"Not right now baby." I said taking my from her, but accidentally also answering his call.

Carson mouthed to the girls to be quiet.

"Happy Birthday Jordan! I love you so much!" She said taking the phone and adjusting it so he could see her face.

"I love you too babygirl. Were you at?"

"With headache and some other people."

"Tell headache I said hey and thanks for birthday shoutout."

"Okay I will. Can I come witchu' for ya birthday?"

"Nah, I'm doing grown people stuff today babygirl. But I'm coming to getcha this weekend."

"Nicole gone be there?"

"Yup, she said she miss you."

"I miss her too. But headache keep staring at me so I think she want me to hang up."

"She always hating on us. But, okay talk to you later." He finally hung up the phone.

"Im sorry for that, I didn't mean to answer." I said embarassed.

"Let's just hurry and get down to the situation." Laura said.

"Why you lied?" I asked Carson.

"I really didn't want him, but he loved me and spoiled me and gave me everything including this one." She said.

"Okay, why couldn't you just leave normally?"

"I told him I wanted to leave, but that didn't work. So I stopped letting him see his daughter, that didn't work. So faking it and running away was all I could do."

"He loves her you know? Alot."

"Who we talking about?" Nyla asked.

"Somebody, here draw me a picture and hush." I said passing her some crayons.

"I know he does, and from what I seen about your son it hurts even more now that he thinks he lost two."

"Well he got another one on the way so hopefully that works out." I said sighing.

"You pregnant again?" She asked.

"Hell nah, his girlfriend is though. I just got in this relationship, I won't be pregnant for a while."

"Oh, yeah. Donell." She said. Hearing his name caused me to smile.

"Mama ain't that's yo boyfriend name?" Nyla said looking up.

"Draw." I said sternly.

"You know that's my step brother?" She said, My eyes grew wide.

"Small damn world." Laura said.

"But back to the point, you gotta tell him." I said.

"He might not do right by you, but for his child. He gone give them the world and Ny is living proof of that. You should see her room and closet, her smile when she's around him and so much more. And this not even his child, just imagine what he'd do for Serenity."

"We talking bout Jordan ain't we?" Nyla asked.

"Yes nosey rosey." Laura said.

"What about him? What he did mama?" She asked.

"This is his daughter." Carson said pointing to Serenity.

"We talking about my dad? You said dude was dead." Serenity said.

"Well I lied, and you will get to meet him soon."

"How soon?" Ny asked.

"Maybe this week." Laura said.

"Ma' I gotta pee." Nyla said before walking away.

Jordan POV

Before taking my first birthday shot, I heard my phone go off. It was a FaceTime call from Naya. Knowing she usually doesn't call me I figured it was Nyla

"Yes my love?" I said smiling at the phone.

"Jordannn." She cried.

"What's wrong? Where you at? Watchu crying for?" I asked.

"You know Serenity?" She asked wiping her face.

"Yeah, what bout her?"

"She here. With her pretty eyes and blonde hair and they skinny behind mama." She said rolling her eyes.

My mind went back to the day I swore I saw Carson, but I thought I was tripping.

"Okay so why you crying?" I asked.

"Cause." She started crying heavier. "They talking bout they gone meet you this week. And then you gone love them more than me and forget all about us."

"What make you think ima love them more than you?"

"I'm not your real daughter."

I sighed at her statement. "Nyla, that doesn't change anything. I love yo lil spoiled ass."

"But a white boy in my class told me I'm too dark for someone to love me over a white girl."

"When you go back to school, tell him to stop kissing his dog in the mouth before he talk to you."

She laughed. "Are you still going to be my God Dad?"

"Yes crazy. With or without Serenity, you still my babygirl. They just gone be my baby. How that sound?

"Ima still be your bestfriend, even if my momma marry Donell." She said smiling.

"You still got your necklace?" I asked.

"Yup, you still got yours?

"Yup. I wear it everyday."

"Me too." She smiled.

"I love you Nyla okay? Ima cancel my plans just to spend the day witchu' and Nicole how that sound?"

"Guuuureeeaaat. I'm finna go back out there bye." She said before hanging up the phone.

What the hell am I gone damn do now. I got one on the way, that's gone take attention. A girl I haven't seen since she was 5months, that's gone take alot of making up. And another girl who never left my side since I met her, and I made her so many promises to never leave her side.

Help me father.
