I leaned against the wall listening to Ash talk to Aaron. When he walked out the room I pretended to be walking down the hall. His head hung low until he seen me. He looked up smiling at me lifting the paper up he had in his hand.

"Look mommy. I made this for you."  I kneeled down smiling at the picture. It was a bunch of scribbles but I loved it anyways.

"Its great my baby. I love it, where's daddy?" He shrugged walking right past me. I sighed peeking into Ash's room to see him still on the floor. I walked in and sat down on the floor next to him.

"I heard both your conversations, and to be honest I'm just as mad at you as Ashton is." I informed him crossing my legs and putting my hands in my lap.

"I fuck up just about everything. I didn't know Keyonna was going to be in NO,  I was going to tell you but I ain't want you to be mad. Ash just made me feel some type of way, What am I going to do?"

"That's something you need to ask yourself. You're twenty five years old, either you want your family or that money." I stood to my feet and was about to walk out before being pulled back.

"You love me right?" My lips curved into a small smile and I nodded.

"Why wouldn't I? You should know I love you, but you need to be home more because your own damn son doesn't like you right now?"

"I need to make money to provide for both our kids Ashley. Air isn't going to buy you guys clothes, food and everything y'all want. He too young to understand. " I snapped at her.

"IS MONEY MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR FUCKING CHILD. IF YOU LEAVE TOMORROW MORNING, I SWEAR YOU ANSWERED ME. YOU CAME GO FOR TWO DAYS AND COME BACK. WHY THREE DAYS? WHY FOUR? You are dumb." I stood to my feet about to leave out but he stopped me.

"I don't think you understand,  once you get into this shit...  You can't just get out easily. Like I can just get out in one night,.I've been doing this since I was fifteen, ten fucking years. Think about it. You've been with me for them ten years and now you acting like you don't understand."

"I don't understand a lot of shit anymore. Ten years ago you were a child, I see you haven't grown out of that little boy stage." I walked out the room leaving him there to think. I don't want to hear any of his excuses. It doesn't matter what I have to say about his situation, your son hates you right now. Do what you think he wants you too. Two days in Nola A week should be more than enough. If he want to go out and do him, then I  don't know what to say.

"Come here mommy's baby." I pouted watching a crying Kassir walk over to me. I smiled when he fell into my arms sticking his thumb into his mouth. I ran my hand across his cheeks wiping the tears that had soaked up his face. He had fallen up the steps and hit the side of his head. Told him not to be running up the steps, but he doesn't listen so he learned his lesson.

"It hurt." He put his hand on the part that hurted and I slowly rubbed the spot where he showed me. This my problem I baby my sons too much but they're only one and five. They are both still babies anyways. "Whea Ash ma?"

"I don't know, go find him for me."I told him letting him go. He stood up and left out the room yelling Ashton name.

I laid back in my bed pulling the blankets over me. The room door opened and in came Ashton. He climbed into the bed with me laying his head right on my boobs. Both him and his dad do this like why? His little body was on top of mines grabbing a hold of my hair twisting it in his hand. My kids have weird sleeping habits. Ashton sucks his thumb and plays in hair, then you got Kas who puts any fingers in his mouth and plays with his hair or puts his hand in his pants to sleep. My baby Ash was angry right now, I didn't even know he felt that way about his dad, maybe I should do the motherly thing.

"Boop, you know your daddy loves you." I whispered to him.

"I know but I miss him ma."

"He is just trying to make sure that we have everything we need. Trust me I miss him a lot too, but I keep stuff to myself. I know I shouldn't but your dad is stubborn, it's either his way or no way, unless I yell."

"Does he love us?" This was honestly sad because I'd never think in a million years I'd hear my son say that.

"Of course, with all his heart."

The next morning I woke up to an empty bed. I know for a fact Ash went to school but I guess Aaron left. I walked downstairs to Kas room but he wasn't in there. I decided to make my way to the kitchen,  but no one was down there either. I thought everyone had left until I looked out Back and what I seen made me smile.

"TEN HUT!" Aaron yelled, Ashton ran down the backyard holding the football. Kas chased after him attempting to get the ball. Kas jumped onto Ash's back and he fell to the ground.

"Darn it!"Ashton yelled throwing the football down.

"First down , it's cool. Come on pick it up and let's go." Kas ran back to Aaron and gave him a high five. "Good tackle man."

They ran their little plays a couple more times before they noticed me watching them. Their little father / sons times is cute. I'm glad he didn't leave and he thought about what I said because I would have beat his ass. He better not think i just up and forgot about the Keyonna situatuon. Id kick his ass and her ass if he try something with that musty, dusty, crusty bitch one more time. I love him and all but he bettwr not play with me. There was a loud knock on the door and I went over there to open it.

"Surpriseeee! " My smile dropped and my face was beyond disgusted.
