"When you gonna cut this shit from yo face?" I said as I pulled August chin hair. He furrowed his eyebrows before hitting my hand.

"When you wax that shit from above yo lip, feel like I'm in competition pot'na!" He said. I rolled my eyes before getting up.

"Fuck you!" I said , he laughed.

"I'm playin witchu!"

"I was playing with you too." I said as I bent down and gave him a peck on the lips.

I started walking to the bathroom.

"Babe ya know ya naked?" He said from the room, I started some bath water.

"Yep."

"So ya just gonna walk a'round like I won't tear ya ass up again?"

I shook my head as I went back in there to get some clothes.

"I'm bout to take a bath. I didn't wanna put no clothes on just to take em back off." I said furrowing my eyebrows, getting the clothes going back into the bathroom.

"Umm I guess." He said then I heard the bed move, him getting up. I locked the bathroom door before getting in the tub, never know with August .

•••

I got out the tub, dried off. I did my hygiene, lotioned, and put on some spandex shorts and a Nike oversize shirt with my hair puffy.

"C'mon Mercedes open the door'." August yelled banging on the door, I opened and seen him already dressed.

"Why you rushing me?" I asked , furrowing my eyebrows.

"Cause.." He started as he pulled me downstairs. We got to the table where it was breakfast." I wanted ta have breakfast witcha ." He said with a smile , I smiled back.

"It looks good." I said as we sat down.

"It's gonna taste even betta." He said . I was sure it was since he can cook .

"It doesss." I cooed as I took a bit. He sniggered as he continued eating.

"I know. I'm good." He said with a shrug and a smirk. I smiled as I playfully rolled my eyes at him.

"Whatever." Then I heard Drew start crying.

"I got em." August said.

"I got him." I said as I got up.

He pushed me back into the chair.

"I got it." He said walking off. I got up and pushed him into the wall.

"Ouch!" He said making me laugh as I jogged to Drew room.

Then he picked me up backwards on his shoulder, taking me back to the chair.

"Noo stop August, I got him . He want his mommy!" I said as I was kicking to get down, he put me back in the seat and ran to the room. I ran after him, blocking the door way.

"Bye!" I pushed him in the chest as I went in Drew room, getting him out the crib.

August came in and pinched my butt.

"Ouch stop!" I said trying to push him.

"Ouch stop!" He mocked.

" Whatever." I said.

" Wateva'." He mocked til I gave him a straight making him laugh.

"You're so hardheaded I'm tryna let ya finish ya food and ya won't listen." He said , I waved him off.
