Omniscient

Rakim wore fresh braids and a tailored black suit.

In his casket, he looked peaceful and pale.

If he were able to see the people that came to his funeral, he would have been very upset.

It was a crowd full of people 'paying respects' to Rich.

None of his children were there.

He didn't want them to be.

Myra had come though, and she cried the loudest out of everybody.

Blue bonnet lady viewed his body and left.

She was surprised that she had lived longer than him.

After a few more minutes of viewing, the casket closed, and the funeral began.

Royce crawled around on the floor of his room. "Dada!" He demanded, pulling himself up using Whitney's clothes.

She sighed. "Dada's not coming"

"Why?" Rocky walked into the room, dragging piglet. "Where daddy go?"

Royce turned and saw his big brother before screaming. "Dada! Da- da! Dada! Dada! Dada!"

He definitely got that behavior from his father.

Nem screamed in the other room, wanting to be near the noise.

"You summoning me?"

"Dada!" Royce pushed off against Whitney and crawled over.

"Daddy!" Rocky hugged his leg. "You went bye for a long time"

"It was five days" He leaned down and scooped up his children.

Rakim

Khass walked into the room, holding a child that was screaming her head off.

"I can't claim that" I shook my head.

"That's all you" Khass put her up against me.

"Nem&Nem, you hear that? She's a real hater."

Nemiah sucked in air before rubbing her snotty face up against my shirt.

Nasty ass.

I sat her and Royce down first before picking up Rocky and putting him on the bed too.

"You showed up sooner than expected. How was your funeral?"

"My actual funeral needs a guest list cause that won't it"

"You're not even gonna have twelve people there"

"My twelve kids gon' be there. I gotta continue the family name" I said. "We not gon' be a dying breed"

"You're gonna catch something"

"You can catch me in the sperm bank for single ladies. Imma do open donation" I smiled.

"You're gonna go broke" Khass said.

"Forget all that. Nem's gonna go evil having to split me up with more kids like that" I looked at her while she aggressively chewed on her teething ring.

She was leaning forward and slobbing all over my bed.

"Bye" Khass walked away.

"Aye, nasty! Quit that" I told Nem.

She fell over all the way, and rolled onto her back.

"You tryna drown yourself?" I sat her up.
