"Yo J, since you dressed go wake londynn and Kendrick up" my dad said and I nodded. I knocked then walked in and they was already up. Dressed and all. "Who got y'all dressed" I asked. "Aunt kiara" londynn said and I smirked and nodded. "Come here" I said holding out my arms and she walked over to me and I picked her up. "You rollin with me or yo lame ass sister today?" I asked.

Him and BIG was close, I Dont think uncle sean and Pac was close but all I know is him and BIG together, was the greatest. I be so jealous of LiLi Cause her grandpa is Diddy , thats dumb tight if you ask me. And in college Uncle Justin was D1 bound , seem like everybody in her family doing something provocative. But shit, my pops was one of the youngest, most know dealers In New York when I was younger , and my moms was like his bonnie. I Look up to my pops. When i grow up I wanna be just like him. I pulled out my phone and called LiLi. "Hello" she said. "You got my text?" I asked. "Yup" she said and I sighed "aight" I said. "Tell uncle Christian and Ciara londynn heading up to Springfield with us" I said. "We wanna go" she said. "Who is we?" I asked.

"Cause she wanted to match my fly" Kendrick said and we laughed. "Let me get on your back uncle Wan" londynn said. He bent down and she jumped on his back. I looked at Kendrick and he was mugging my dad. I laughed and shook my head. We all walked out the house and my dad put londynn down. We all got in the car and headed to my uncle Christian house. When we got there me and my dad got out and James stayed in the car with londynn and Kendrick. We walked inside and my uncle Christian was sitting on the couch playin 2k.

We got Back in the car and James got up front while mariah, londynn and Kendrick was in the far back. I got in my seat and cali sat next to me. I sighed and put in my earphones. 20 minutes later we was still driving. I looked over at Cali and she was on the phone. "Yeah we can hang when I get back" I heard her say and I nodded.

"Tell us how y'all met and all that. shit we got time. 4 hours to go" James said. I looked back and londynn and Kendrick was sleep. Riah was waitin for him to start. I glanced at Cali and she was waiting too. "Aight. Me and kiara met when we was 14. She start slangin with us. She got kicked out James and them grandma house when she was 13 . Yo grandma was on drugs bad and she kept lettin her husband touch kiara" my dad said and I scrunched my face up. "Yeah my pops told me" James said. "Anyways , me and kiara had our problems and when i met her it was hella shit i aint like about her but I looked past that and looked for the shit I did like about her. Kiara was dope on them corners man, best female slanger I ever met in life. Me and her start messing around at 14 , then when she turned 15 she bought her own house and cars and shit. I been knew Christian and ciara, we was all close since we was 3-4 years old , kiara just somehow came and blessed me. At 17 she got pregnant wit J, we graduated and got married at 18. She had him right After we got married. 4 years later when J was 4 him and cali was mad close. I remember me and kiara separated , she was pregnant too. But we was separated and i came to j's birthday party. Christian found out ashley cheated on him and broke up with her. Him and Ciara flirted that whole night man. Then kiara called me to the room , we talked and made up then i made the biggest decision of my life . Just for her and J cause if i didn't we would all be dead. But i quit the game. And thats it" he said. "Wait so. Aunt kiara was pregnant?" Mariah asked. "Yeah ma. I remember right after i found out my pops died , me her and J was layin in bed and we fell asleep. I got up and went downstairs and christian came by. J ran downstairs and was like Daddy mommy's bleeding. I ran upstairs so fast and grabbed her. We got to the hospital and found out we lost the baby." He said. "Then when me and Chris had to leave Brooklyn, when I came back we made Kendrick" he said laughing. "I remember I told you and mom I wanted my little brother or sister on my birthday so me, him or her, and Cali could play together" I said lookin at Cali and she smirked and I smirked back. "Yeah I remember. but I know y'all mad at eachother so Whatever y'all got going on end it now. Y'all Probably mad over something stupid kid" he said and James dapped him up. "I was wondering when you was gone say somethin unc" he said. "Word man. Why y'all arguin and keep it 100 with me" he said and I sighed. "Cause pops. LiLi like me, but I told her I can't be wit her Cause ima dog and ima hurt her so I guess that made her mad so now she mess with TJ" I said and I looked at Ciara and she sighed. "I ain't even gotta say shit else man. y'all know what to do" he said and I looked at mariah and she gave me a look saying "apologize or inside beat yo ass" . I slumped down in my seat and looked at Cali. "Im sorry ma" i said and she looked at me and smirked. "Its aight kid. Im sorry too slime" she said and i smirked at her. I stared into her eyes then hurried up and looked away. See , i cant man. I cant get too attached to her. I looked out the window and she sighed and start textin on her phone. I aint that type of nigga man. i cant be tied down , especially by Cali. But I wanna be with her , then again I don't. shit I don't know, look what she do to the kid man.
