Lauren was in the process of going back to work. She was feeling as if all those long days of studying and extra-long nights of working had gone down the drain since when she moved out here she was only working for a month before she had to come off her job. Her passion had always been to be a registered nurse and since Kross was now six weeks old, she felt as if it was time to get back on her feet.

"Say auntie, auntie," Paris cooed at Kross as he smiled a gummy smile at her and kicked his little legs wildly.
"Thank you so much for watching him for me, Paris. I appreciate it," Lauren told her.
"It's really no problem, Lauren. I didn't have class today and I don't go into work until later so I didn't have anything to do. How did it go, though?" Paris asked.
Lauren had been out all day putting in applications at all the surrounding hospitals. Even though Nip sent her money every week and had a bank account set up for her and Kross that he deposited money into every day, she wanted to make her own money. She had never been the type to depend on a man and she wasn't about to start now.
"It went good, I'm hopeful that I'll at least get one call for an interview."
"You will, girl. You got the skills for it and your résumé speaks for itself," Paris told her.
"You're right, girl," Lauren said just as her phone started ringing.
"I'm about to go downstairs. Tell my brother I said I need some money," Paris said, already knowing it was Nip.
Lauren just laughed as she answered his FaceTime call. When it connected, Nip was in his car smoking a blunt.
"Where my son?" he asked as soon as Lauren popped up.
