Nervous? I was beyond that , not only could you see it, but you could hear it in my voice. Last time I really talked to my mom was ninth grade, and she's always telling me to talk to my brother. It's always talk to him, why can't we talk? I promised Ashley I would do this, I was debating on calling Eli to come with me but I guess I'll be cool.

The ride to my mother's house was quiet because I was thinking. Kassir must've been knocked out because he's never quiet. We pulled up at my mother's house and this house made all old memories come back to my mind. The little shit that happened and how my mom would leave every night. I brushed those thoughts off, while getting out the car and getting Kassir. Ashton climbed into Ashley's arms , I locked the doors to the car then walked onto the side walk. "This is it." I mumbled lowly. Ash rubbed my back when we started walking up the steps to the house. She knocked on the door and the door swung open. A little girl with two front teeth missing and two pig tails in her head smiled brightly.

"You must be King." She looked up at me and I nodded.

"Yeah, I am. Who might you be lil cutie?" I smiled at her.

"Krishna daughter. Momma Ro said come in though. She's in the living room." I rolled my eyes. Krishna is my ex, one ex I'd never speak to again. I walked inside the living room to see my Aunt Ray, My mom and Krishna all sitting on the couch. Kassir moved around in his sleep, I set the carseat down on the floor right next to where Ashley sat down at.

"Mom... this is my girlfriend Ashley, Ashley this is my mom Rolanda and my Aunt Ray. " My mom looked at Ashley in disgust then shook her head. I seen Ashley get uneasy, so I walked over kissing her lips. "I'll be right back baby. " 

"The boys are upstairs. Talk to them first then you can talk to me." I nodded my head then made my way up the steps. As I walked I thought about how much I didn't want to do this. These niggas the most irritating. I walked over to Ants room and pushed the door open to see them playing the game.

"Move fuck boy! " Rome yelled bumping into Ant. They're twenty six, you'd think they're less then half their age.

"Thought y'all would be up here kissing or something? " I stated leaning up against the wall. Both their heads shot my way and their facial expressions changed.

"I guess it is time we sit down and talk about this right.." Ant said and I gave him the duh nigga look. He cut the game off, I went into the room sitting far away from Rome. He won't get the opportunity to touch me, because this time I won't shoot him in the leg. I'll put him in a coffin this time.

"When you were younger, I was wrong to touch your dick. I don't regret it, but I was wrong because you weren't that way." Rome starter talking running his hand through his hair.

"Yeah and I'm not Sorry for putting your ass in the hospital. You deserve that shit, and you lucky I ain't kill you." Fear flashed over his face and he turned away from me.

"I-I would never try that type of shit again. I got a son now and a fiance. "

"She know you got gay tendencies." Ant hit my arm and I was about to punch him. "You just fucking watched like what type of brother are you?"

"I was young King." I chuckled shaking my head.

"Nigga you was still old enough to know what the fuck he was doing!? I can't trust you with shit, I wouldn't even let you watch my kids."I spat coldly.

"Ouch." Rome mumbled, I shrugged my shoulders.

"You need to let go of the past man, just think forward. I want a brotherly relationship with you, but you never wanting to be around and shit, you living life alone. You out chea making bread, taking care of some broad but can't see your own family." I chuckled at Ants words.

"That "broad" is the same girl who family took me in when y'all kicked me out. Her parents treated me like one of their own, and helped me get back on my feet. So I'd give that "broad" the world if I could. She had two of my kids and she will be my wife soon. I will give her anything she want, it's because of her that I'm still alive."

"You could have came back at anytime." I stood to my feet so done with this nigga. I walked out the room and back downstairs. Ashton looked scared so I went to pick him up.

"You okay babe?" Ashley just rolled her eyes shaking her head. Kassir was laid across her lap while she looker at her phone..Krishna had an attitude you could tell by her face but I ain't care. Ashton isn't with it , he don't know these people. "Did he talk to anyone?"

"No, you know how he is." Ashley replied setting her phone down.

"Y'all rude as fuck, like y'all can speak to her.  If you want me to be around she's going to be around too, and if y'all don't accept it then I won't be bringing my ass around here at all." I snapped at Krishna,  Aunt Ray and my mother.

We're all at the dinner table, I was told we were having a family dinner and we were going to talk. I don't want to but I need to have a conversation with my mother. My son isn't shy all the time, but he doesn't like people much. He'd rather just be around his grandma then be around people he don't know. I don't blame him I'll honestly.

"So when are you going to let my grand kids stay the night?" My mother asked while I fed the baby.

"Never." Ashley told my mother. I couldn't help but laugh because I was about to say the same thing.

"I don't remember asking you dear, these aren't just your kids so shut up." My mom spat. Ashley chuckled looking up at her. 

"Mom don't you fucking even...We don't let anyone but three people watch our kids. Plus, why would I let you watch my kids, you gone kick them out on the streets too!? Let your sons best friend touch on them too?" I snapped at her angrily. I was so irritated.

"I did not kick you out, you fucking left!" She stood up yelling.

"WHY WOULD I LEAVE WITH NO WHERE TO GO!?"  I set the baby in Ash's arms and jumped up.

"Baby." Ashley grabbed my hand and I looked down at Ashton.

"Let's go." I picked Ash up and started walking to the stuff. I cant do this and I refuse too, I tried. She sat there and lied in front of everyone like she didn't kick me out on the streets. I don't have the time for this...
