" Where you going  ? " Matthew asked sleepily as he heard Dekia moving around his bedroom getting dressed. He opened his eyes and grabbed his phone and smacked his teeth once he seen it was one in the morning . " You trying to go creep or some ? "

" No ... my sister called me and she needs me to help her with the twins. She said she can't get them to stop crying " She explained as she pulled a hoodie over her head .

" Where her baby daddy ? " Matthew questioned .

" She said he's out doing something " She shrugged her shoulders . Darkayala was very vague when she explained where Lance was she just said that he was at work . Last time Dekia checked he was a drug dealer so she didn't get why he couldn't put what he was doing on pause to come home and help with his kids.

" Okay " Matthew said as he climbed out of the bed and started looking for something to put on .

" Where you about to go ? " Dekia asked him .

" You think i'm finna let you leave out here by yourself this early in the morning and they snatching people up ? i'm coming with you " he said and she nodded .

About thirty minutes later they made it to Darkayla and Lances place and they could hear crying from outside the door. Darkayla opened the door and both Matthew and Dekia cringed at how bad she looked .

" You good ? look like you been going through it " Dekia asked her concerned as they walked into the house.

" No girl Lance is out of town on business and i've been in here with these kids by myself for three days and i'm loosing my mind i can't do anything because they always crying " She complained .

" Why did he go on business so soon and the twins just came home ? why couldn't that have waited ? " Dekia questioned.

" Because he already had an agreement and the person already paid him half the money upfront to have the job done by the end of the year they only gave him extra time because he explained to him that I had to go into labor early " Darkayla explained .

" what job ? does Lance sells drugs or not ? " Dekia asked confused .

" Yeah but he does something else too and don't ask me to tell you because I can't " Darkayla said .

" Ok whatever where's the babies ? " Dekia questioned .

" in their nursery " Darkayla said leading the way as Dekia and Matthew followed behind her . When they made it in there both of them were in their cribs crying their eyes out .

Dekia picked up Londyn and Matthew picked up Landon . " You can go shower or whatever you need to do sis ... we got it get you some me time " Matthew told her .

" Thank you so much " Darkayla said happy. The first thing she was about to do was take a nice long bath since she was only able to wash off because it was only so long before one of the twins started crying .

Dekia and Matthew fed them and washed them off before rocking them to sleep . She soon figured out what the problem was , they were spoiled and wanted to be in someone's arms 24/7 and since Darkayla was only one person she couldn't do that for both of them .
