I just had this feeling in my stomach that letting Nayquinn go off with that dude O'Shea was a bad idea, like I really didn't know O'Shea but I did know Nayquinn and it didn't take much to set his goofy ass off and the last thing I wanted was to be dealing with legal trouble in Ohio. But Big John and Mike seemed to have faith in them so I'd leave it alone, besides I had more important things to worry about like this little boy who was smacking me in the face. I'm biased, I have no problem admitting it, but Odion was my godson so I tended to let him get away with a lot... had it been anyone else I probably would've tossed him off my lap. Shoo Shoo was chasing Darion but I honestly think he was just using it as a reason to get away from all the women who were lusting over him, like his arrogant ass wasn't enjoying it. I sat there watching as Devin moved around making sure everything was perfect, I swear that nigga was going to save the world even if it killed him. Odion was telling me about their house in Calfornia and all the fisheses he seen in the water, trust me little dude I didn't need a recap.... me, Devin, and Blaze had been all over that damn house multiple times already.
"And... and..... and.... Dari don't like jellyfish, he scared." Odion said looking at me and I just nodded and smiled, Odion had told me about Darion's fear of jellyfish, like six times.
"What are you scared of Odi?" I asked looking at him, Odion seemed to tense up and mumbled something I couldn't hear. "What was that?" I asked because Odion was usually fearless but something had my godson spooked and I didn't like it, he got out of my lap and ran over to his brother and hugged him.
"When are you going to have some kids?" Devin said sitting down next to me and I looked at him like he was crazy. "Nigga don't look at me like that, you damn well you want kids of your own.... one day."
"I don't know... thinking about how me, you and, Ni....." I paused and looked at him Devin seemed to know the name I refused to say and smiled. He seemed unbothered but with Devin you never really knew, Odion was easy to read because of those damn eyes but Devin....
"Will it's okay.... you can say Nico, I let go of all the anger I felt and I'm at peace." Devin said and I still gave him the side-eye because if it had been me and Nico came after my dude and kids..... "But you still haven't answered my question, when are you going to have some little Will's running around?" Devin asked again.
"I've been considering adopting.... I want my own kids but at first, I wanna adopt. I guess you're starting to be a positive influence on me, I see what you're doing with these kids and if I could make the difference in one person's life then maybe it'll make up for all the bad I've done." I said shrugging.
"Nigga you weren't half as bad as I was.... but karma kicked me in the nuts with that one." He said nodding to Odion. "I love little dude to death but that mouth.... Odion got a smart ass mouth and his favorite question is 'why' like I'll be like 'Odi, it's time for your bath' and he'll say 'why', 'Odion, it's time for bed' 'why'.... he's just, he likes to challenge authority." Devin said shaking his head.
"Ayy chill out on that one...." I said looking at Odion. "He's jut inquisitive, besides maybe he likes showers and bedtime isn't mandatory." I said and Devin started laughing, we sat there for like five minutes just talking when I felt someone standing next to me. "Uhh can I help you?" I asked looking at one of the little dudes that live in the group home here... I think his name was Jace.
"I saw this bomb ass survey on Twitter and I wanted to know if you'd like to fill it out." Jace said smiling at me, I glance at Devin who shrugged, I nodded slightly and he pulled out his phone showing me a blank contact screen and then turning to Devin.
"Lightbright, I'll be filling out my transfer papers in a few days. I'm moving to Seattle." Jace said before turning back to me. "Maybe you can show me around." He said batting his eyes and smiling.
