Thanksgiving ::Part 2::

-Hazel-
I arrived at work to see people were leaving.
"Lucille, what's going on?" I asked a co worker.
"Patricia is letting everyone off for the break, we don't come back till Saturday"
"Wow"
"Yeah, do you need a ride somewhere?" I nodded. We got in her car and my phone beeped.
From: Harlem
-Ma, everyone's gonna be at Ms. Aaliyah's house for dinner just a head's up.
I smiled.
"Lucille, do you mind dropping me off over The Marlow Apartments?"
"No, I have a few errands to run"
"Thank you so much, I'll pay for gas" She shook her head.
"Don't worry about it"
We got to Aaliyah's house and I got out.
"Thanks again Lucille"
"You welcome, see you Saturday" I waved and knocked on the door.
"It's open" I walked in and tapped Harlem.
"Aye, wh- MOMMY" She hugged me and I hugged her back. "I thought you had work?"
"They let everyone off till Saturday"
"That's great, dinner's almost ready"
"Mama" Malcolm ran to me and I picked him up.
"Hey big guy"
"I missed you" I smiled.
"I missed you too" I walked into the kitchen. "Hey Aaliyah"
"Oh hey, they let you off?"
"Yeah till Saturday, need help?" She nodded. I put Mally down and washed my hands.

-Leilani-
I was playing with Tay in his room.
"Ooh Elmo" I picked up his Elmo and hugged it.
"My" Tay reached out.
"Nope" He smiled and walked over to me. He fell in my lap and I kissed his forehead.
"Y'all just gone leave me out of everything huh?" I turned and saw Lonte glaring at me.
"Quit looking at me like that" He came and sat next to me.
"So what are we doing?"
"We're gonna do building blocks" I sat Tay in front of us and grabbed his blocks.
"You are such a child" I laughed.
"Yeah" I handed Tay a block and he started putting it in his mouth, then started crying. "Lonte, what's wrong with him?" I asked picking him up.
"He's teething" I handed him his Toy Story Teething ring and punched Lonte.
"Ouch, what the hell?"
"You didn't tell me?"
"Sorry"
"Ugly ass" He stuck his tongue out me.
"Look better than you" I gasped. He smiled and pecked my lips. "I'm kidding"
"You hurt my feelings" I stood up and Tay did the same. We walked out and downstairs.

-Alonte-
I got up and followed them.
"Food's ready" All the guys ran in the kitchen.
"Now is one of the times I am lucky to have a big kitchen" We laughed and made Tay's plate. I made mine and Lani's.
Everyone got situated and mama said Grace.

All the guys had to do the dishes.
"I don't get paid enough for this" Zay said snapping his fingers.
"Gay ass" I splashed water on him.
"Bruh, chill" We started having a water fight.
"Aye, y'all better chill with all that, my baby's trying to sleep" Lani glared at us.
"And if we don't?" Quan questioned.
"I'ma beat all y'all's asses with Lonte's gun, good day" She smiled and walked out.
"Well Damn, talk about Bi-Polar" I laughed.
"Right"
We finished and everyone left. I showered and laid in my room. Lani walked in and plopped down.
"I'm going to shower" She grabbed one of my shirts and a pair of my boxers.
"Aight, then we're gonna watch Juice"
"What's that?"
"You haven't seen that movie?" She shook her head. "Damn"
"Whatever" She walked in the bathroom and I chilled.
She came out dressed and laid next to me. I cut my lamp off and she laid on my chest.
I got comfortable and everything when I got punched in my chest.
"The fuck Lani?"
"Yell at me like you did last week, I'ma beat yo ass" I rubbed my chest and she got closer. "Night boo"
"Night baby girl.........bipolar ass" I kissed her forehead and fell asleep.
