Loyalty: Something Dishonest

F I F T Y - F O U R

TWO DAYS LATER:

A N I Y A

I look at myself through the mirror and decide if this is a right fit. We called everyone up to have dinner with us because we have something to tell them. Everyone saw my post and thought Jordan just gave me a promise ring. But little do they know it's a full engagement ring. So tonight we are gonna tell our families at the same time.

"You ready yet?", Jordan asks walking into the room with Arianna on his shoulders.

"Does this look okay?", I ask him. A simple grey v neck t shirt, a pair of light blue jeans, and my grey high top Vans. I see that he has on a black Nike jogging suit with some matching all black Nike gym shoes.

"You look good", he says. "Right Arianna?"

"Yep!", she says smiling. "Do I look pretty?"

She has on a blue romper with a blue jean jacket and some nice sandals. "Yes my niece looks beautiful, you guys ready to go?", I ask. They nod and I grab my purse from my vanity and we all walk outside to Jordan's Camaro. I let Arianna in the back before getting in and putting on my seat belt. Jordan speeds off and grabs my hand.

"You scared?", He asks me. I nod my head yeah. "Why?"

"Because I mean.. I've only talked to your parents twice. I've never met your oldest brother. And we are giving them this big news", I say.

"Who cares, they either with it or they not", he says simply. "As long as I'm happy and you are too that's all that matters"

I smile and look out of the window. We pull into the steakhouse which Jordan renovated for the evening. He parks the car and we get out. I make sure my hair is looking okay and feel my stomach doing flips. Jordan tightens the grip on my hand assuring me that everything will be okay. So many cars are in the parking lot that I get even more scared. Walking into the restaurant the aroma of Steak fills my nostrils and I get hungry. A lady dressed in all black walks over to us and smiles. "You must be The Hamilton's? Right this way"

We follow her and I see everyone sitting at the table talking. Everyone at this long ass table and my stomach start doing more flips when I see some new faces. The twins see me and run over to me. I let go of Jordan's hand and hug them. "Hey Tt's babies"

"We missed you", Tiana says pouting.

"Yeah you taking my Aunt from me", Jr says to Jordan. Jordan laughs and shakes his head no. "Good cause I'm not a fighter". Everyone heard him and started laughing. We all sit down and everyone looks at us.

"Oh baby you are just so pretty", some older lady says to me.

"Thank you", I say blushing.

"Niya this is my Aunt Doris, My Dad, My older brother James and Momma" , Jordan introduces. I wave at them and they all wave back. I notice Jordan gives me a look when I smile at his dad, he still mad about the comment I made. His daddy fine just like him... okay let me stop.

"It's  nice to meet you again", His dad says to me.

"Nice meeting you too", I respond back. "Well everyone this is my brother Tre, my niece and nephew Tre and Tiana, My Dad Howard, And my mother Angela".
