Zaire Fuller
Today was the gender reveal, and it was almost time for it to start. But, Phat was still upstairs getting dressed. Mariah was upstairs with her doing her hair and stuff. Phat was now about 5 months pregnant. Shit still has changed between ya, we was on speaking terms though. She still treated my like a nigga off the streets. I didn't blame her though.
Minutes later, Mariah cane downstairs and smiled. "She's ready!" She squealed. The music started playing and Phat walked down the stairs. She had on a dress, it was an off the shoulder dress. And it was long, she looked beautiful. She made it downstairs and smiled as everyone took pictures. "You look beautiful." I said. "Thank you." She said. I smiled and grabbed her hand and we walked outside to the backyard where everyone was sitting waiting.
"Okay, we are about to get started." Mariah said in the microphone. "But first, we are about to find out the gender of the baby." She added. I admired how she talked, how she looked, and how she moved. I liked her ass so much.
"Mommy and daddy, come stand over here," She said. I helped LaVaughn up, and we walked over to where she was standing.
"Okay, so Zaire will have 3 balls, he has to throw them inside the hoop. And it's a censor on the ball, so once the right ball go through the hoop, blue or pink powder will come from the ball." Mariah said. We nodded. She handed me one ball and I bounced it before tossing it inside the hoop. That wasn't the ball.
I did the next one the same way and, nothing. The last one, I tossed it and all you seen was pink powder. I smiled and turned around giving Phat a hug. She hugged me back, surprisingly.
We pulled apart and everyone else started hugging her.
I was happy, but I really wanted a boy. "Congratulations." Everyone said. "Thank ya." I said. The party went on, and I was inside sitting on the couch acting anti social.

"You okay?" Phat asked. The party was over, everybody was gone. I was still in the same spot from earlier. "I'll be fine." I said. "Talk to me." She said. I sighed. "I still feel bad." I said. "About what?" She asked. "About what I did to you, I ain't never cheated on anybody a day in my life. I really don't know why I did it." I said.
"The last thing I ever wanted to do was break yo heart, and I ended up doing it anyways. That shit broke me, I hate seeing you sad. And knowing that I caused madd it even worse." I added. "And it ain't nothing in this world that'll fix what I did." I said. "I'm sorry, I really am. That's the only thing I know to do." I added. She nodded. "I forgave you, it's nothing to feel bad about. It's over and down with." She said. "It's okay, I promise it's okay. As long as you happy, and as long as I'm happy. It's fine." She said.
"You sure?" I asked. She nodded smiling. "Anyways let's talk about names." She said excitedly. "What names do you like?" She asked grabbing a notebook and pen. "I actually liked Zariah, Zakiyah, Zaniyah, Layla, Leilani, Lyric, and Lauryn." I said. "Oh, I didn't even think of names that start with L." She said frowning. "But you named every Z name I thought out and liked." She said.
"You want her name to start with a Z?" I asked her. "Yeah, and later if I have a boy his name will start with a L." She said. "Who gone get you pregnant?" I asked frowning. "Whoever I marry in the future." She said. I nodded. "Okay." I said.
"So we just have to pick from the Z section." She said. I nodded. "I say Zariah." I said. She nodded. "We'll figure it out soon." She said. "But for now, i'm about to go take a nap. London is with Nia for the day, and I'm tried." She said. "It's night though." I said. "I'll still wake up like I took a nap anyways." She said. I watched as she walked upstairs and then I heard her door shut.
I laid back on the couch and decided to start thinking of designs for the club, and also names.
"Hello?" I said once I answered my ringing phone.
"Zaire." Mariah sung.
"What's up ma?" I asked.
"Nothing really, I got bored." She said.
"What you doing?" She asked.
"Thinking of names for the club." I said.
"What about The Luxe?" She asked.
"Phat said Ten Thirty Eight, it's the area code of where the club at." I said.
"Oou how about The Velvet Room?" She asked.
"I like that one." I said.
"I gotta think of Strip Club names too." I said.
"I was thinking Teasers." She said.
"Phat said she liked Onyx, I think I was gone pick that one." I said.
"That's nice one too, you should pick that one." She said lowly.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing, you just keep mentioning LaVaughn." She said.
"You don't want me to mention her around you?" I asked.
"No, it's fine." She said.
"Nah, you obviously have a problem with me sayin her name and shit." I said.
"I do, it's already bad enough y'all still live together. And the fact that you keep saying her name is kind of pissing me off." She said.
"Say less." I said and hung up the phone, I don't have time for her and her jealousy. I typed the names "Onyx" and "Ten Thirty Eight." in my notes and I sent it to Dino to ask if he liked it or not. I stood up and walked up the stairs and to the hall bathroom to take a piss. Minutes later, I was in my bed and I was slowly going to sleep.

I woke up because somebody was kicking me in the face. Looking down, I seen Phat laying in the opposite direction of me. "Phat?!" I yelled. "What?" She groaned. "Yo feet all in my damn mouth." I said She sat up and put her head on the pillow beside me, and her ass went straight back to sleep.
I shook my head and sat up. I couldn't go back to sleep, so I decided to stay up.
