I arrived home and sat my keys on the counter. It's been 3 weeks since my surgery and sometimes I still feel pains. My doctors says this is normal though and that my body has to get used to me only having one ovary.
Today was Sunday and every Sunday since my surgery we have been having family dinners. The first one was at my house. Today it would be Kareem's. We also check in with each other every other day.
"Babe I'm home!" I said starting up the steps. I got no response so I just went to take a nap. It was going on 5:30 and I had been tired from the errands I had ran.

Looking at the clock it read 6:58. I drove home, because I knew if I was to miss this family dinner shit Blessing wouldn't let me hear the end of it. When I pulled up to the house there was no lights on and B car was in the driveway.
I unlocked the house and jogged up the steps to her room. She was sleeping with the cover wrapped tightly around her. I slid into bed beside her and began trying to wake her up.
"You not going to this dinner shit?" I asked putting my face in the crook of her neck. She didn't respond so I started squeezing her. "Ouch Malik!" She said quickly getting out of the bed with me. "What's wrong B?" I said getting up to comfort her.
"My incision Lik it's sore! You have to be more careful!" She said going to her bathroom to look in the mirror. "I apologize babe, I forgot." I said coming behind her and rubbing over it. "I'll be more careful next time."
"What time is it?" She said going to her closet. " 7:16" I replied while taking a piss. "Shit" she said under her breath. "Who's house is it tonight?" She said quickly grabbing something. "Ma's" I said flushing the toilet and putting the seat down. I went over to wash my hands and quickly examined myself in the mirror.
"Okay I'm about to get ready" she said standing at the door to dismiss me. "Yeah me to" I replied walking out of it. I took a quick shower, because of the way I smelt after leaving the trap. Then went to shape myself up. Soon after Blessing came in sneaking pictures as if I didn't know.

I did my makeup and hair, then quickly got dressed. I had Malik take a couple of pictures of me and I posted the best one on Instagram.

Veiw all 12 commentsAfter I was ready to go. I grabbed my bag and walked down the steps. Walking out the door I called my mom.
"Hello"
"Hey ma, dinner at your house tonight?"
"Yeah, I'm just about finished so y'all can begin to make y'all way over here."
"Okay, I love you. See you soon"
"I love you to. Be safe"
I was so proud of my mother. She'd finally left my dusty ass step father and moved down to Atlanta with us. This really meant a lot to me. Me and my mother were always close. She just always tried to hide me from reality. It seemed as though my brothers father took the life out of her.
My brother had also came back to Atlanta and was staying in our old house. It felt good being around my immediate family. At least one day out of the week.
"You driving?" I asked Malik. He was so overprotective that I "wasn't allowed to drive until my incision was completely healed" . "You ain't" he stated while grabbing the keys off of the hook.
When we arrived at my moms house my sister and dad were already there. We were just waiting on Brandon and Kennedy late asses. "Hey mama" I said walking in the kitchen to give her a hug. "Hey baby, where is Mai?" She asked upset that she didn't see her.
"She's at her moms" I replied a little upset, I had missed her chunky self already. "Hey ma" Malik said making his way into the kitchen. "Hey baby, how you been?" She asked smiling from ear to ear. I then made my way towards the living room where the football game was on the screen.
"Hey dad" I said plopping down on the couch beside him and picking up my nephew. "Wassup Blessing" he asked not taking his eyes from the game. "Nothing" I replied while playing with Brandon. "Hey B" Bre said making herself known. "Hey shittybooty" I replied we both cracked up laughing then began to catch up.

"So who all coming mama" I asked while taking a seat at the island and tasting her food. "Everybody's welcome" she replied with a smile. "This good" I said while stuffing my face. "I seen your mama the other day in the grocery store" she said bringing her to my attention. "Oh for real" I said off the end of my seat. "Yeah, she's doing real good" she replied.
"That's what's up" I said after hearing the doorbell ring. "Excuse me" I said getting up to go and answer it. It was Kennedy and I'm guessing a friend. "Sup Ken" I said giving her a hug. From my peripheral I could see this nigga eyeing me down. "What's good" I said going to dap dude up. He just brushed past me and continued to follow Kennedy.
"God please don't let it be no shit with this nigga in mama house tonight" I said to myself. Then proceeded to the living room. "Sup pops" I said dapping him up. I then gave Bre a hug and made my way towards Blessing. She was having a conversation with Ken.
"So bitch you ain't gone introduce him to nobody?" she asked speaking my thoughts. "My bad Blessing this is Rashad, Rashad this is my best friend Blessing and her dude- " "Kil" I said interrupting her. I could feel a bad energy in the room and it wasn't mines. "What's poppin 5" he said with a smirk on his face.
This nigga was bold bold. He'd came in my girls, moms house with the fuck shit and I was with it tonight. "What's Crackin CUZ" I replied smirking at this nigga. He thought I was for the play play and I wasn't going.
