I fluttered my eyes open when I felt someone shake me telling me to get up. I groaned because I already knew it was Aug, so I turned over.

"Mo getcho black ass up !"

I jumped up. " Marcus what the hell I thought you was Aug."

" naw him and grandma downstairs gettin high."

I rolled my eyes and grabbed my robe and put it on. I looked at my clock and it read 1:46 p.m.

" how long y'all been here."

" since 11:00."

"Y'all hungry ?" I say walking down the stairs.

" what you finna cook ?" He said following behind me.

"Food."

He sucked his teeth. "Smart mouth ass."

I chuckled and went in the bathroom that was downstairs and brushed my teeth. When I was done I went to the living area where I heard talking.

" hey ma hey daddy."

" hey baby."

"Hey princess."

"What brings y'all by."

"Well we ain't heard from you in a few days so we decided to stop by." My mom said.

I nodded. "I'm sorry I've just been busy with the shop and trying to get the restaurant up."

"Baby slow down you haven't been here three months and you're already working yourself too hard, everything is gonna be fine. Stop working yourself too much."

"I know ma I know."

"What you have planned today anyway."

"I really don't know yet, I might go out tonight with a friend."

"A friend ?" My dad says raising his eyebrow.

"Yes a friend."

"A male friend ?"

I nodded. "He actually helped me come back home."

"Well why we ain't met him yet ?" My dad asked.

"Dad it's no need for that yet he's just a friend."

Before he could say anything Aug and grandma walked in. "Hey baby." She said kissing my cheek.

"Hey ma." (she calls her ma too)

"Well we need to meet this friend, I mean we do owe him a thank you," my mom says.

I mentally cursed because Aug eyes shot straight to me. "What friend."

"Oh he doesn't know about your friend," my mom smiled.

"Ma really, stop."

"Oh the friend you be lettin kiss on yo ass." He said glaring down at me.

"Kiss ?" My mom, dad and grandma all said in unison.

I sighed. "Did y'all all not forget that I am grown, what I do with him is MY business. I am a single woman."

"Uh oh," my grandma said putting ha hands on her hip.

I walked down to the den with Aug high on my ass. "You ain't single so you betta quit sayin dat shit girl."

I rolled my eyes. "Shouldn't you be somewhere with Danielle."

He sighed. "here you go wit dat shit."

"Yeah here I go."

"I told yo ass I only want you but you always wanna act stubborn and shit and have shit yo way."
