Watching as Kairi slept, I couldn't help but break into a small smile. Her luh yawns and stretches just made me fall in love with her even more. I felt like I needed to protect lil mama at all costs.

I noticed how she had her hands placed on her face and shit. How she smiled in her sleep. I couldn't get enough of her. She slept with her middle finger up at me too.

"You bet put that finger down for daddy getchu." I joked, kissing on her forehead.

She broke into a full on toothless smile, struggling to open her eyes. Once she opened em all the way and saw me staring back at her, her face turned from a smile to a mean ass mug.

Baby was the spitting image of me. I could see a few of Cass's features but other than that, she was all me.

"Good morning beautiful." I smiled.

Her tiny butt still mugged me.

"Man you bet stop that shit." I joked, muggin shawty back.

Her mean face turned into a frown then tears welled up in her eyes.

"Aw shit baby no, no, no don't cry." I whispered, thinking that'd help. But it didn't and she started crying.

"Fuck." I huffed, picking her up and laying her on my chest.

"Shhh okay mama?" I whispered, patting her butt.

Her small cries still filled the room and they were all you could hear throughout the whole quiet ass house. I continued to rub on her back hoping she would stop back but then Cassie walked in the room.

"She's hungry." She spoke, walking over to me grabbing the blanket and spreading it across her chest.

I nodded my head, watching as she took Kairi away from me and held her in her arms. Then she walked away leaving me in the room by myself.

I took a deep breath staring up into space. These last two months had been shit. Work was hard per usual and the passing of my dad still fucked with my head every now and then.

Only person that put a smile on my face was Kairi and when she wasn't in my presence I would fall right back into a fucked up state of mind.

I just wanted to be left alone. I really haven't left the house either unless I was working or needed some fresh air. And not to be on no sad nigga shit but I was fuckin losin my mind. This shit hit me hard. After his funeral, I locked myself in my room and didn't come out for 3 days straight.

I adored my pops. Me and him were mad alike. We got along so well over the past couple of months. Only thing I was pissed about was the fact he ain't tell me nothing about him being sick or anything.

Had me and the rest of my family dumbfounded. I wish I couldn't spoken to him one last time.

Staring into space, I rocked back and forth in the babies rocking chair feeding her a bottle of milk. As I stared, tears just welled up in my eyes and trickled down my face.
