Dahlia. (Short Chapter)

The doorbell rang as I was currently cleaning my kitchen, once I start cleaning one thing I can't stop so I go from room to room. I think I have a small case of OCD. Tossing the dishrag in the sink, I frowned grabbing the dry towel wiping my hands off on it. I didn't expect company tonight all it was 9:45 pm, being at the park earlier wore me completely out but I had fun. Walking to the front door, I looked at the peephole. I let out an exasperated sigh, unlocking the door opening it.

"How may I help you Ej?" I asked leaning against the doorframe.

"Wussam Lia, uh Cheeks wanted to come to see ya'." He bent down picking up his small-year-old son Jacob Eli Parker.

My face lit up as I made eye contact with my Chubby cheek godson. "Cheekssssss!" I exclaimed loudly grabbing him from his dad's arms into mine. He squealed happily wrapping his tiny arms around my neck tightly. I haven't seen him in a whole month, due to him being away at his grandparent's house that resided in Georgia.

I walked away from the door with him in my hands going back to the kitchen, I didn't care for his father's presence but I knew he would follow me.

"Lia, me eat paw patrol?" He bounced up and down in my arms clapping his tiny chubby hands together.

I smiled and nodded opening the cabinet that held most of his favorite snacks inside, paw patrol fruit snacks. I grabbed a pack opening it putting one in each of his hands, he barely could chew them but he mostly just sucked on them. But he had a few teeth the rest hasn't grown in yet. If you couldn't tell by now my godson was spoiled to the core by me, I was that extra godmother that had a room decorated in paw patrol with a matching bathroom that was conjoined to his room. Yea that's me. So what? This little human being was my world in human form, no matter what we've always found our way back to each other.

"Lia, can we talk?"

Interrupted from my thoughts Ej was now settled on the stool at my island in the center of the kitchen. He looked tired, dark circles decorated under his eyes. I shook my head, as I put Jacob in his high chair.

"What is there to talk about Ej? Where's  your W-H-O-R-E?" I spelled it out slowly. One thing I didn't play about was exposing Jacob to derogatory words, he was going to grow up to be the perfect gentleman.

He ran his hands down his face. "Come 'on Lia man."

"It's Dahlia to you bud. We have nothing to talk about, I'll drop him off in the morning. Have yourself a nice night." I dismissed him walking over to the refrigerator pulling out the ingredients for chicken nuggets, I made them from scratch because cheeks loved them, and also they were soft enough for him to chew thoroughly. I also pulled out green beans with a side of mac & cheese.

I heard the chair move, out the corner of my eye I seen him walk towards cheeks kissing him on the forehead.

"I love you, Lia, just remember that. Love you fat man be good for Lilo." He walked out of the kitchen, I heard my front door close.

"Bye-bye dada." I smiled at him as he focused on eating his fruit snacks.

"You good over there cheeks?" I asked.

He nodded looking at me showing me his gummy smile. "Lilo can me watch nice monster movie?." His nickname for me was so adorable, due to him hearing people call me Lia and that our favorite 'monster' movie to watch together was Lilo & Stitch. He always acted out parts of the movie that had Stitch in it, all you saw was his cute little behind engrossed into the movie. His big pretty brown eyes made it hard to say no to.

"Yes, my little stitch we can. I'm almost done making your food ok?" He nodded his head excitedly then put his focus back on his snack.
