"Nah they don't understand me, all the help and love I gave they took for granted."

Ja and Keyarii had been 'kickin it' as they like to say. Key was beginning to blossom a crush while Ja wasn't exactly sure what he was feeling.
Savannah and Key were also beginning to hang out and Key found that she was easy to be around. But she knew to keep a guard up until she could really pick out Savannah's vibe.
And, Samir had learned he was going to be a father. The first person he called was his mom and then told his younger siblings. Key was excited for her big brother and Nassir was too, but not as much as Keyarii.
Momma Sinclair was the only one concerned with the important details.
Who is the mother?
Is she after money?
Do you know her?
What's her plan?
As a normal mother with a famous son would be. Naomi wanted Sammy to get a DNA test to be sure about things. Deep down he knew the baby was his and a part of him was grateful he'd knocked up Sana'a and no one else.
Sana'a and Sammy met his senior year in college and became friends. Sana'a was a good girl with a good head on her shoulders, but she was constantly done wrong by men. They had never crossed the friendship boundary even though they had both wanted to. But, Sana'a felt she couldn't compete with the women in his life so she put her feelings on the back burner, choosing to settle for less. Sammy, on the other hand, never made a move because Sana'a removed her feelings. He got the idea he never had a shot in the first place, so he let her deal with incompetent men knowing he could do her better.
About 2 1/2 months ago, Sana'a had yet again a failed relationship and of course Sammy comforted her. In the process of that comforting they had unprotected sex.
Samir gave her a feeling she never had before but once again she felt she couldn't act on what she felt.
So when their night of passion ended and morning came, she left. She'd been ignoring Sammy ever since, until she found she was pregnant. After finding out she told Samir immediately. She planned to keep the baby and she wouldn't require child support. Sammy knew having a baby would alter his career and he didn't know how to plan for it.

Keyarii and Ja were at her condo chillaxin, vibing to some music. Lucas Coly played as Key recorded a video on Ja's snapchat.
"Can I post this?" She asked.
"Ion care." She tagged herself in the video and posted it.
"It's bout time for me to take this hair out", Key said as she scratched her head. Her month old boho locs were growing out and she couldn't decide if they still looked good or if she really needed to take them out.
"You only had them for like a month."
"A lil over that. I think I wanna try a blonde bob."
"Go for it."
"You wanna help me take these out?"
"If I fuck up ya head don't say ain warn you." Key rolled her eyes and got up off her couch to put a pillow on the floor in front of him.
"I'll be right back." She walked into her bathroom to grab scissors, a brush, and comb. Then walked out of the bathroom and to the kitchen. She grabbed a plastic bag from the pantry. Key returned to the living room before sitting down in front of Ja. "So imma do all the cutting because if you cut my hair I'll kick your ass." Ja waved her off.

"Don't ever ask me to do no shit like this again."
"Temetrius you being dramatic."
"No I'm not, this shit take too long and you got too much hair. And don't be using my government like I'm in trouble or some shit."
"Bye because you must not have seen the largest Afro in the world, look it up."
"You just know it all don't you."
"I don't know rocket science", she said as she shrugged her shoulders. He thumped her ear hard.
"Miss smart aleck."
"Whatever I lowkey hate to wash it now but I might as well. Ohh shit before I do that I need to book with my stylist." Key looked at her phone and noticed she had a ton of snapchat notifications. She had the notification sound turned off because she hated hearing it. When she unlocked her phone it was a ton of adds and new messages. "Damn." She went to her stylist website and scrolled to where she could book for a sew in. She made sure to leave a note in the comment section about wanting a blonde bob. Her appointment was set for Tuesday so that gave her enough time to have bundles expressed shipped.
"Ja you hungry?"
"Kinda why?"
"I'm lowkey in the mood to cook."
"Oh well then I'm definitely hungry ni."
"I'm thinking bout some salmon, asparagus, and something else."
"Salmon?"
"Yes it's fish."
"Ain never had that before."
"Well you're in luck." Keyarii got up and walked into her kitchen with Ja following behind. She took the salmon out the freezer and looked to see if she had any fresh asparagus. "I don't have any asparagus so imma have to go get some." She went to her room to grab her wallet and keys. Key put her hair into a low ponytail before exiting her room. She walked to the front door and noticed Ja was still in the kitchen. "You gonna come or are you gonna just stand there?"
"Oh yeah my bad." He walked over and walked out ahead of Key, so she could close and lock the door. They made their way to her car.
"Damn this just as nice on the inside."
"Well duh I take pride in my car. Put your seatbelt on." Keyarii turned on the ignition and her phone automatically connected to Bluetooth, which played WAP by Cardi B and Megan thee Stallion. "I said certified freak, seven days a week! Wet ass pussy make that pull out game weak!-"
"Un uh no ma'am, that's nasty," Ja said as he shook his head at her. He changed the song just as Keyarii pulled out of the yard.
"First of all this my car my music nigga, second don't ever fuckin turn Cardi B or I'll castrate your nuts."
"Castrate?"
"Castrate. Vaporize. Compress."
"Ouch."
"Yeah now turn it back dipshit."
"Aye watch yo mouth." Ja turned it back to Cardi and Megan.
"Ion gotta watch nothin. I SAID CERTIFIED FREAK SEVEN DAYS A WEEK! WET ASS PUSSY MAKE THAT PULL OUT GAME WEAK! Yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah. Yeah, you fuckin with some wet ass pussy. Bring a bucket and a mop for this wet ass pussy. Give me everything you got for this wet ass pussy. Beat it up nigga catch a charge. Extra large and extra hard. Put this pussy right in your face, swipe your nose like a credit card. Hop on top, I wanna ride. I do a Kegel while it's inside. Spit in my mouth, look in my eyes." Key continued to sing the whole way to the grocery store.
"You got a filthy mouth", Ja said as he got out the car. Keyarii shrugged her shoulders at him and locked her car doors as she got out.
They walked in and Key grabbed a basket because she didn't need a buggie.
"I hope you ca keep up Ja cause if you walk slow as hell you could've stayed in the car."
"Girl don't worry about me just get what you need." Key rolled her eyes and made her way to the fresh produce isle. She spotted the asparagus and looked for the best looking ones she could find.
"I never understood why y'all women pick through all the stuff instead of just grabbing one and being done."
"Because you got find the ones that look the best and not like they been beat up or molded or anything like that." Keyarii picked up the nicest looking asparagus she could find and a few avocados just for later.
They headed towards self checkout and proceeded to check out. As Key prepared to pull out her money Ja had already begun inserting money into the kiosk.
"I could pay for it myself ya know."
"I know but don't mean you got to." Key rolled her eyes and grabbed the bag, "Thanks."
"No problem as always."
Once back at the apartment Key wasted no time on getting started with dinner. All while Ja sat and watched her move about the kitchen. She had her music going while she cooked and Stretch you out by summer walker played.
Within 25 minutes dinner was ready and she fixed their plates before they seated in the living room. They said grace and dug in to their food.
"This good as hell."
"Thank you."
"I mean like ya shit is fuckin fantastic."
"Boy this ain't nothin compared to what I can really do."
"Should have me over for a dinner a lot more often then."
"Considered."
Keyarii and Ja ate and watched movies for the remainder of the night with the pair falling asleep shortly after midnight.
