"Let's talk 'bout hard times, real bottom boy survivor
Way before the jewelry, the groupie hoes, and designer
Back when I was tryna find a way for all my partners
Rema hit the window, popped the door for me and Lijah
'Member wakin' up with no destination
But I had some dedication, couldn't use my education
'Cause no nine dollars could help me face what I was facing
My light bill due, envelope blue, that mean you behind on payments
Rap slowed down and I was low on cash
Fresh out of high school, kicked out the house for living fast
Went and got a spot, then got a job, 'cause pops was on my ass
Then that's when pops had went to jail so it didn't last."

I rapped every word to my baby daddy song, aka Rod Wave, Cuban Links. I put the pancakes on Jay's plate before putting some on my own.

"Wake up in the morning, hit my knees, and I pray
Because He finally made a way
I been runnin' up that paper, mama
And before I let 'em come and take it, mama
I'ma die in these Cuban links!"

I bob my head to the music and continue to sing along as I flip the sausage patties over. I moved to the sink and washed my hands before starting to crack eggs into a bowl. I smiled when hearing Jalen footsteps come down the stairs. I grabbed a fork and started to mix the eggs, turning and catching Jay come around the corner. He came up to me and took the bowl, setting it on the stove. "Aye I need-" I squeaked as he picked me up, holding my ass and he kissed me deep and slow. I hummed against his lips and smiled after he moved away from the kiss. "Well goodmorning to you too." Jalen laughed before putting me down, handing me back the egg bowl. "Goodmorning babygirl."

I took the sausage off the pan and put them on the plates before starting to cook the eggs. Just then by phone started ringing, by the sound, it was a facetime call. "Baby can you answer that?" I called out to Jalen and he answered the phone. "Bitch guess what bullshit was just told to me!" I flinched as Olivia's voice boomed through my speaker. I took my phone and turned the bluetooth off before setting the phone up on the counter.

"She always got some type of gossip to tell you." Jay said after smacking his lips. I laughed and rolled my eyes. "Jalen shut yo ass up before I pull up and knock you in yo shit!" I laughed as Jay flipped off the camera. "Yall need to be nice, now what you gotta tell me sis?" Olivia snapped back to the original reason she called me.

"So apparently, this new nail shop opened up like 2 blocks away from us and people saying they better then us." I mugged and looked at the screen. "You gotta be fuckin wit me cause nobody better then G.H.E.T.T.O." Olivia agreed and so did Jalen. I laughed sarcastically and separated the eggs on our plates. "What's the name of the shop?"

"Its call Beautiful Nail. Like bitch it's not even NAILS it Nail." I laughed and fixed my clothes, (Jalen shirt with some panties underneath) before fixing Jalen's coffee. "Babe come eat!" I yelled. "You got that nigga spoiled." I nodded and smiled as Jaylen slapped my ass then sat down at the table. "Well when you get dicked down good, you gotta show your appreciation." Olivia made a disgusted face as I kissed Jay and grabbed the phone. "Aye I'm boutta eat then I'll call you later when I'm headed to work." Olivia nodded and we bid goodbyes before I hung up.

Jalen watched me as I sat beside him and started to eat. "What time you gotta be at work?" I checked my phone for the time and saw it was only 7:30am. "I gotta be there in bout a hour and a half." He nodded and took a drink of his coffee.

Soon we finished eating and Jay took care of the dishes before we took a shower. When I finished, I put on a black crop Champion hoodie with some denim ripped jeans along with my matching black Champion slides. I put on some mascara and eyeliner before grabbing my clear lip gloss and putting it on my lips. After that, I combed out my hair and did a messy top knot wit some bomb ass edge work. "Damn you look good baby." I smiled as Jay left kisses down my neck. I pushed back against him and felt him already hard on my ass. "Nah nah nah I gotta get to work." He mumbled and moved away. "A nigga gonna have blue balls fuckin witchu." I laughed and grabbed my wallet, phone and keys to the shop. "Taking me to work?" I asked while holding Jay chin and kissing him, a thin layer of lip gloss going on his lips. "Yeah let me get my shoes on and I'll meet you out there." I nodded and went out to his car, calling Olivia as I walked.

"Wassup bae?" I slipped the keys in my pocket before leaning against Jay car. "Jalen gonna drop me off at the shop so I'll be there in about 20 minutes." I heard some rustling before Olivia showed back up on the camera. "I just finished my hair and makeup so I should be there when you show up."

"Ight I'll see you there." Olivia said the same before hanging up. Jay walked out and unlocked the car, letting me get in before he followed. Like planned, I showed up to the shop in about 25 minutes tops. I reached for the door handle but Jay locked the door. I mugged and looked at him. "Excuse me? I gotta get out."

"Not without giving me a kiss, the fuck you think this is." I rolled my eyes and leaned toward him, my lips puckered out. Jalen moved toward me and gave me a kiss, holding my chin as I moved my hand to rest on his lap. I smirked softly before rubbing his dick through his pants. He instantly moved away and pushed my hand away. I only laughed before getting out the car and waving bye to him as I unlocked the gate and doors. "You play too much lil ma but I gotchu when you get home." I waved him off and smiled as I walked in the doors, turning on the light and air conditioning. Soon Olivia showed up and so did the other employees. We didnt get our first customer till about 12 ish so we had some free time while we were there.

Hopefully this day go fast

Jalen

While Tahny was at work, I went ahead and started to check up on all the traps to make sure everything was straight.

"How the fuck can I just walk up in this bitch and nobody guarding the doors? I could've had a fucking gun on me ready to shoot yall asses up and you two just chilling! Know what, Jax take them to the back and handle that since they cant do they fucking job in this bitch!" The two guards yelled and begged as the group took them to the back of the building. Two shots went off and I watched as the other guards showed a scared expression. "See what happen when you get caught slippin? Just do your job and you ain't gotta go down like they did. Bri, find me some new guards for the door."

"Yes sir." Bri, a short white girl, scurried off into a room as everybody got back to bagging up my product. I went back to my office and sighed as I plopped down on my chair. Soon Jordan walked in and let out a whistle. "Guessing Cole and Jamie didnt make the cut." I rolled my eyes with a huff and snickered. "Those niggas wasnt guarding shit, no wonder people getting by with stealing out shit. I had Jax's crew handle it though so we good." Jordan sat on the chair across from me. "I need yo help bro." I raised my eyebrow and cleared my throat. "This must be serious, you dont ever ask for my help on shit."

"I got some news and I dont know what to do about it." I furrowed my brows and leaned up on my desk. "What's up bro? You know you can talk to me."

"I know I can, but this shit serious. I-I cant do this by myself." Jordan instantly started balling his eyes out, his body shaking bad. I got up and wrapped my arm around his back, pulling him to me. "Tell me what's going on Jordan, I know it cant be that bad."

"I got lung cancer Jalen.."
