It was the kid's birthday and Tanya and Kat were getting things ready for a block party they were hosting for Royce's 5th and Raja's 8th birthday. They would celebrate the kid's birthday together every other year. Everybody came out to show support.
The block boys and local hustlers close friends and neighbor I mean everyone. Kat was setting up chairs outside when De'Angelo pulled up. With more chairs and a card table.
"Bounce house should be here in a few he said handing her a chair."
Tanya walked over looking around.
"Where is Brandon?"
De'Angelo sighed "He said he can't make it but he'll be by later."
Tanya jaw dropped.
"I cannot believe this shit, this his second year doing this to us Angelo, I'm sick of this shit."
She began to cry.
Kat held and consoled her friend.
"Tanya you know he doesn't mean it, but Alesha just had that new baby and she been bitching about him spending too much time on the block, plus she said the baby sick."
Tanya glared at him "yea I bet! That bitch always do this she know today is my baby's birthday, stupid fucking bitch."
She cried harder.
Kat gave De'Angelo a look
"I'm on it, I'll try to call him again" he said flipping open his phone and walking off.
She pulled her friend away from her and searched her face.
"Look I know you're upset but you knew he was married T, don't let this ruin the day."
Tanya pushed Kat off her.
"oh I know you ain't talking bitch you won't even tell me who the fuck Koo father is but you on yo high horse!?"
"You know it's not even like that, look last I heard the nigga moved back to Atlanta and was murdered."
Tanya looked shocked "oh my god really when!?"
"Like last week." Kat said dryly
"are you ok?" She shrugged yeah I mean it is what it is, you know we good."
Hanging up the subject she walked over and picked up Royce.
"Royce Citay! Hey niece what you want for your birthday?"
"I want a cupcake auntie."
"Ok ima get you one." She kissed her forehead and walked over to the dessert table sitting her in her lap eating some cupcakes.
A few minutes past and she heard some yelling and a woman came storming up to the yard.
"Bitch quit having Angelo call Brandon he at home doing more important shit with his WIFE and its upsetting her!"
it was Alesha's sister Lee Lee.
De'Angelo ran up. "Lee Lee look this is not the time or place aight?"
"Shut the fuck up Angelo, I'm tired of these baby mama ass hoes... need to stay in they place."
Kat put Royce down and told her to go play.
"Look this shit is between Brandon and your sister, I understand how you may feel but this is not the time." Kat said hard walking toward her
"I don't give a fuck bout that little bastard birthday!" She said puffing up her chest.
