"What's sup my guy," I dapped Nick up as he stepped outside and greeted us. "When you came," I asked.
"About half an hour ago, was inside talking to Maci, is that my niece you holding, hey beautiful what's sup." He bent down and gave Vanny a hug and then Jessie.
"You wanna hold her, make sure yo hands clean my nigga. Can't have her sick while you at home trying to make the next one."
"Well considering I'm on my third I know that man pass me my niece, you buggin."
I was looking around for Maci because she was supposed to be back out here with the meat and all the other things for us to get the grill started. I passed Roxanne over to Nick while I went inside to check on her. "Yo Mai, where you at, we out here hungry as a mother, what you got going on," I yelled while looking around for her.
"I'm in here," she yelled out from her office. From where I was standing it wasn't clear but to me, it sounded like she was crying. When I pushed the office door open I found her in tears, a box of tissue sitting right next to her, and a letter in her hand. "What's sup Mai, why you crying?" I said while sitting down next to her, and moving the box of tissue out of my way.
"I don't even know, I thought I was ready to face him again but it's clear that I'm not, he gave this to me." She passed the letter that was in her hand, and I took my time reading over it. After I was done reading it in the back of my mind I was proud of my brother to know he finally became a man. I just was upset about the fact that this was the right place but the wrong time, today was supposed to be about laughter and getting back those moments he lost but here he comes with the bullshit. Maci was breaking down, it was like someone close to her died the way she was crying and I know I couldn't get her to stop. I just rubbed her back and gave her a hug while she cried into my chest. I know I'd be an asshole if I said it but this is what she needed in order to finally move on, I think this was going to be her closure.
"Maci stop all this crying because you starting to piss me off, no disrespect but you crying over someone who already moved on and he did it without thinking about how you would feel. This right here is your pass to move on and find someone that is gonna love you more than they love their own self, yeah Nick wrote that shit right. This nigga telling you to move on so follow them simple ass instructions. I am just sick of the bullshit between y'all it ain't even funny, you sitting here crying for what? Huh? Y'all don't share anything in common anymore besides them three kids that's it, let them be the only relationship you cry over, nothing else. I told you before and I'll say it again I'm gone keep things real with you whether you like it or not."
