The next day...
"I'm coming, ma!" Mariah yelled outside of her door.
"Hurry up, girl! You know yo grandpa is impatient!" Mariah locked up her apartment then jogged over to her moms car.
"Good morning to you too."
"A good morning it is. Your glowing." Mariah rolled her eyes then buckled up.
"Can we just go and get this over with?" Sabrina frowned at her daughter. She drove off on her way to her dad's house.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Mariah was still a little upset that Jackson had canceled their lunch.
Jackson had just finished editing all of the models photos from the previous week. It was a Monday so that meant business for him. Jackson woke up early around 8 AM to get ready. He handled his hygiene then slipped on a simple fit.
He locked his apartment up then hopped on his bike.
Meanwhile Mariah was sitting at her grandpa's house in New Jersey. He had made dinner in honor of his wife's death anniversary and wanted to spend time with his family.
"You alright baby girl?" Mariah's uncle, Calvin, asked her.
"I'm fine."
"She sprung over some boy!" Her mom blurted out.
"Who Chase? Want me to beat his ass?"
"No, not Chase uncle Calvin. Its nobody." He gave her a look that said 'we'll talk later'. Mariah nodded.
"Alright! Dinner is done." A few of Mariah's male cousins rushed to the dinner table.
"Y'all know better, children and women eat first." The boys groaned. Mariah and a few of her female cousins and aunts went over to the large table and took a seat.
"Cj, get off that game and come eat boy!" Uncle Calvin yelled after his 14 year old son. Cj was too busy playing the game to hear his father. Mariah stood up and went to get him.
"Cj it's time to eat." She tapped him.
"Aight." He paused his game and followed Mariah to the dinning room. They both sat next to each other and bowed their heads, ready for papa Rob to begin prayer.
"Dear heavenly father, I just wanna thank you for bringing my family together on this beautiful day. I pray that you bless us to enjoy our lives while we still got it..." Papa Rob went on while the children at the table snickered and groaned.
"Amen Papa Rob." Uncle Calvin said. Papa Rob huffed and let everyone make their plate. Mariah filled her plate to her liking and began eating.
"How's Juliard, Riah?" Savannah, her aunt, asked.
