Chapter 20: Bad News Bears

Vea's POV

          "Damn ma this  food smell good as fuck, what you cheffin' up in here yo?" Uni came into  the kitchen rubbing his stomach. He walked to the stove and placed his  head over the pot and took a deep breath.

My mom slapped the back  of his head with a wooden spoon on the counter. "Boy back ya nappy  headed ass away from this food is you crazy?" She scoffed and looked at  him. "We don't know where yo head been at."

"In the clouds." He threw his head back and chuckled, walking over to the table that was already set up.

My mom decided to throw a  little dinner for my birthday. It was also a "going away" dinner too  since I'd move out my home and move into my new one. I was anxious about  living by myself but I was excited at the same time. Isla even came  over to celebrate with us.

"So how are you two  lovebirds doing?" My mom asked Isla, smiling at her. "I'm happy to see  my son finally settle his fast ass on one girl."

Isla looked at Uni and  grinned from ear to ear. "Your son makes me very happy. I still get  butterflies in my stomach when I get around him."

"Oh Isla, I'm happy  you're his lucky girl." My mom grinned with her and sighed happily. "He  used to be bringing all types of treeshes and babas over to my house. I  kept getting their names mixed up and allat so he was definitely the  player back in the day."

"Oh all that shit is  clipped. Deaded. Donzo." Isla looked back at my mom and then at Uni,  giggling. "Yeah I know he used to have the juice. All these years of  knowing him I'd never thought he'd settle down. To me. I'm glad he did  though because we're really good for each other. I cut my hoes off for  him and he had better did the same."

Uni walked to Isla and  wrapped his arm around her neck, kissing her forehead. "Mami you know  the vibes, don't be acting like you don't."

"I know, papi." She leaned up and kissed his cheek softly.

I was sitting at the  table scrolling through Facebook. I cut my eyes to them and snickered.  "Uni had the biggest crush on Isla first though, let's not forget how  this relationship really started."

"Okay now." Isla pointed at me and laughed in agreement.

Uni sucked his teeth and shrugged his shoulders. "Okay and? Least everybody knew that she was stamped."

"Boy girls are not property." My mom looked at Uni with her arms crossed over her chest.

"I'm a monopoly and Isla  my property." He busted out laughing before sitting at the table with  me. Essence was at the table too but she was too busy on her coloring  app on her phone. to engage in our conversation

"Seriously though  bestie, I'm so happy for you. You found real love." I looked at Isla and  reached over to rub her back. "I can't wait to become Auntie V. When my  niece or nephew coming, guys?"

"Uhh not no time soon  girl. He not allowed to shoot the club up." Isla laughed and covered her  mouth. "But it'll come soon. Stay tuned." She winked at me.

My mom looked at all of us and smirked. "I better be the first one to know about my grandbaby."

"Of course, ma." Isla smiled at my mother.

My mom loved Isla to  death as if she were one of her own. We were inseparable as kids and my  mother was the first to know that and initiate that. She even called  Isla her third daughter which made Uni pissed since he had a crush on  her. My mom loved Isla's vibe. She was respectful, kind, and had manners  unlike other bitches out on these streets. She wasn't a fast ass either  which my mom adored to the bone.
