~Two Weeks Later~
~Trey P.O.V.~

As of now I was babysitting Lilah for Lolo and DeShawn because they needed a couple hours to themselves and I ain't got shit to do since IRG is basically hibernating for the summer. She was cute, reminded me a lot of Ivanna when she was little and Natalia but thankfully she doesn't live with me because she got some lungs on her. I've been able to keep her calm for the most part, a few times she got a little upset but all was good.  

"Our chillin' time is almost up, little one." I said as I had her laying on her back on my legs so she was looking up at me. All I've had to do so far is change her diaper one time and then she fell right to sleep while we were watching TV. Dad actually ended up texting me early on asking for me to come by the house so as soon as DeShawn or Lolo comes back to pick Lilah up, I'm headed over there. He didn't say why he wanted me to come by but I wanted to anyways, despite me being mad at him for taking away IRG from me, he's still my Dad and after dealing with the damn Rommel bullshit... I don't have the heart to take IRG like that and it's made me want to spend more time with Dad. 

Breezy been real quiet too, hasn't been answering my texts so I plan to stop by his place when I'm done at Dad's and see what's going on with him. Nigga usually always answers my texts within the minute I sent mine. I didn't even see him at the shop the last two days when I was trying to see if he was there. Vonnie was yesterday and she looked sad but she was busy on the phone so I didn't bother her to find out. I saw Ty was there and of course he wasn't doin' shit but sitting in one of the chairs staring out the window looking bored as hell as always. 

"Awe what's the matter?" I asked her when she was starting to make some noises like she was uncomfortable. "Let me adjust you a bit." Sliding her down closer to me so her head wasn't leaning as far back, her noises came to a stop while I was rubbing her tummy with my finger tips. "Much better huh? Uncle T messed up a bit but that's okay, you better now." The pacifier in her mouth made me laugh because for whatever reason it made her eyes seem really big... that was cute, I can't lie. "Your Mommy says your restless but look at you chillin' with me. Grandma Nelle Bells used to say I was a bad kid too but Uncle Varo said otherwise so I feel you on this." I know she has no idea what I'm saying but she seemed really interested in seeing my mouth move as that's where her eyes always drifted to when I started talking to her. 

My phone vibrated next to me and I was quick to grab it, seeing it was a text from Lolo she as gonna be on the way in ten minutes. That's fine by me, we just gonna chill because the mood of the house couldn't be disturbed, not even with the presence of Rommel as I can see him in that chair next to me, watching me as if he was a vulture waiting for me to finally die so he could eat away at my corpse. I need to know if anyone else is able to see him too because there's no way it can just be only me. This nigga can physically do shit to me unless I'm hallucinating that too but like right now I'm straight. I haven't smoked and I don't drink unless I'm with my niggas so what gives with all this? It would make sense if I fucked with those ouija boards and summoned his ass to talk to me but that ain't the case... let me ask Ty since he would be likely to see this too given what shit he does.

Arriving at Dad's house, I didn't see Mom's car so she clearly wasn't home which meant I avoid any possible lectures or unneeded ear grabbing, that's what we call a win. I walked in through the front door and heard nothing going on downstairs at first but I went down the hall to the right to check his office. Pushing open the door, I saw Dad right there at his desk and that's when he looked up at me, a smile on his face I never thought I'd see the say where this nigga would smile at my presence. 

"Oxygen now? Too good to breathe the regular air?" I said with a laugh as I walked up to him and dapped him. He laughed with me and then motioned I take a seat in the chair across from him. "It's mad quiet around here, where Ivanna and LJ at?" It's just been quiet everywhere- at least to my standards and I don't like that. I want some action as always, so I might just head into South Side and see what trouble I can stir up down there to satisfy my craving for action.
