"Mother dearest?"
"Sup?"
"Not sup."
"What you want?"
"You wanna come over for dinner?"
"Is there a catch?"
"..No"
"What's being served?"
"Seafood"
"Oh yes ma'am, you shoulda used that as your conversation opener." I rolled my eyes.
"I'm at Chris house. Dinner should be done in about an hour and a half so."
"Ohhh you're at Chris' house?"
"Yes Karen."
"Mmm, cute. Yeah i'll come, make sure my baby up by the time I get there."
"Mhm, bye." I hung up the phone and sat it back on the counter, resuming my music.
"You give me feels, you give me feeeelllls." I sang loud and off key.
"Let Kehlani sing it baby." Chris entered the kitchen, shaking his head.

"Watch your mouth."
"You shut up before I give her back."
"Nah you ain't gotta do all that now."
"Exactly" I laughed. After watching a couple more episodes and getting up and down to check my pots, there was someone at the door.
"Mommmmy!" I squealed, sliding across the floor to the front door.
"Hey mama." I smiled, pulling her into a hug.
"Hey boo, it smell good in here." She sniffed, stepping over the threshold.
"You know I can do a little something something." I bragged. She didn't really care, seeing as though her and her partner in crime had acknowledged each other.
"Hey GiGi's pudding pot." She spoke in a sweet voice, reaching for her as Chris handed her off. He knew the routine.
"Hey Chris baby." She spoke, kissing his cheek. Ion think sis was even hungry, she was just using my invitation to see my child.
"The food actually done, I was just waiting on you." I said, placing the aluminum pan on the island.
"Actually.." Chris spoke
