"Thanks girl, this is so dope. I'll definitely be back," she smiled at me handing me two hundreds.
"Its only 75 I told her," she shrugged, "you deserve more."
Standing up from her chair, she gave me a quick hug then made her way out.
I pocketed the money and turned to Renzo, my babydad.
"Why are you here again?" I questioned him with a mug on my face.
"Can we talk real quick?" He looked at me with hopeful eyes.
"Uhm okay, Tae watch the front please!" I yelled at him before making way to the backroom where I kept most of my supplies.
"What is it?" I asked him as I crossed my arms over my chest.
"I was wondering if I could take Semajay to Florida to visit my moms?"
I stood there for a minute, contemplating on if I wanted to allow that - Semajay has never been out of my sight for too long.
"For how long?"
"Just for about 4 days - nothing too long, my mama miss him," he expressed, making me feel bad.
After Renzo cheated on me - I ended up being bitter for a while and nobody but me and my family was allowed to be around Semajay, definitely something I wish I could go back and undo.
