"Hello?" I said into the phone. "Hey, sissy! Did you land yet?" My baby sister says. I grab my luggage and take a seat. "Yeah, we just landed." I said. "Yay! Mama's coming to get y'all from the airport right?" Celeste said. "I believe so, yeah." I say. "Okay. If she isn't there within the next 15 minutes let me know and I'll either ask Kaleb to come get y'all or I'll send an Uber." "That's okay.I'll call an Uber." I said. "Are you sure?" Celeste asked. "I'm positive. I'll see you in a little bit." "Okay. I love you." "I love you, too."
Nya and I had just landed in Jersey. We came back home for Celeste's baby shower. The flight was only 6 hours and I slept the entire time. Easily the quickest 6 hours of my life. I loved flying.
My mom picked us up from the airport like she said she would. I couldn't wait to see my baby sister. I haven't seen her since she first told me she was pregnant. Well, in person at least.
"Sissy, hi!" Celeste says, greeting me with a hug. Her belly was growing so beautifully. "Hi, beautiful! You're glowing!" I said to her. "Thank you! I'm so happy y'all are here." She says to me. I take a look at my little sister and wanna cry. She was 7 months pregnant and more beautiful than ever.
"You never told me what you were naming my nephew!" I said to Celeste later that night. It was almost 10 pm and we were up making party favors. The theme for my sisters baby shower was sports themed. I assumed because Kaleb played hella sports. "I could've sworn I told you. I'm sorry!" Celeste said. I smiled. "It's okay, just tell me!" I pressed. "We're naming him Kaleb Jamari. But we're gonna call him KJ." Celeste says. "That's so cute!" I said.
The next morning, everybody was up bright and early. We were all setting up for Celeste's shower. My mother rented a hall and we were there last night decorating. Everything looked so cute and Celeste was just so excited. I loved seeing her happy. It made me happy.
"Celeste, when's the last time you called your father?" My mother asked. "Mommy, are you really asking me that right now?" Celeste says. "Why, I thought y'all were on good terms?" Mommy says. Celeste scoffed and continued doing her makeup. "I literally have not seen or heard from that man in almost a year." My sister said.
Our father wasn't a deadbeat. Like I said in the beginning, our parents got along so well after the divorce. A year later, though, shìt started to hit the fan. We found out that our dad not only cheated on our mom but had a baby with the bitch. Of course my mother was hurt. They were married for 15 years, together for 20. The fucked up part? He's married to the side bitch now. Crazy shit.
My mother, Nya, Celeste, and I were all at the hall getting ready. My sisters shower was from 3 to 7 pm and it was only 1:30. We all decided to wear blue and white since Celeste was giving me a nephew. "I think you should call him. I'm worried." My mother says. "What are you worried about? He's a grown man." Celeste says. My mother sighed. I was really confused as to why she brung him up.
Celeste and I both had a love/ hate relationship with our dad. Yes, we loved him to death. That was still our father at the end of the day. However, he was never there when we needed him the most. Don't get me wrong, while he was married to our mother, he was father of the year. Once the divorce was final, though, he stopped coming around. It was like pulling teeth trying to get in contact with him. So, that's why we fell back.

"Aww, this is so cute!" I cried, going through the clothes and things for the baby. "Who's that from?" My mom questioned. I reach into the bag and grab the card that came with the gift. "Auntie Laurie." I said. "Make sure you call her and say thank you." My mother says. I playfully rolled my eyes. "I know, mom!" I said.
I chose to go through gifts after the shower at my house. I didn't wanna do it at the hall because I felt like that was too much work. It was so much easier to just do it at home. Plus, I was pregnant and lazy. I had an excuse.
"You're so sweet, baby. I appreciate you so much!" I tell Kaleb later on that same night. It was 9 pm, I was in my pajamas and Kaleb offered to rub my feet. He looked up at me and smiled. "Anything for my baby girl." He says. I smiled back at him. "I love you." I tell him. "I love you more, mama." Kaleb says.

~ Back in LA ~

"Hello?" I said. "Hey, beautiful! You home?" Tyrell says. I smiled. "Yes, I'm home. Why wassup?" I say. "I wanted to see ya beautiful ass. I'm in yo hood." He said to me. I couldn't help but smile like a dumb ass. This mothafucka made me all happy and shit.
Tyrell and I have been dating for 6 months now. I've never met anybody that made me smile this much. Whenever this mans name popped up on my phone, I got happy as shit. He was making me all soft.
I grinned from ear to ear. "Pull up on me then." I flirted. "I mean, obviously. I wouldn't have called you if I wasn't finna come see you, mama." Tyrell says. I got all warm and gushy on the inside. "True." I said. "Aight. Get dressed. I'm picking you up in like 20 - 30 minutes." "Can't wait." I said.
I hoped in the shower and was in there for about 10 minutes. I made my way towards my bedroom. Camilla was out running errands so I had the crib to myself. My brother Justin called me while I was doing my hair.
"Hey, bro. What's popping?" I said. "Hey, Ny. I'm out ring shopping for Krystal and I need a woman's opinion." Justin says. My eyes popped out of my head. "Ring shopping?!" I say.
I'll be honest, a few months back, I wasn't fucking with Krystal. She and I couldn't even be in the same room together. I was only cordial with her for the simple fact that she gave birth to my niece. However, these past couple months, she's really changed for the better. I ain't gonna lie though, when I first found out my brother got back with her, I was sick. We all get along now, though.
"Yeah, I think it's time. Plus, Krystal doesn't know that I know. But she's pregnant again." My brother says. I gasped and almost dropped my phone. "Are you deadass?" I asked. "Deadass. I found a pregnancy test in the trash and she hasn't been drinking. But like I said, she doesn't know that I know. So, don't say anything, Ny! I'm serious." Justin scolded me. "Okay, okay. I won't say anything." "Promise me you won't say anything, then." My big brother says. I sighed. "I promise, damn!" I say. "Okay, good. Look, she calling me now. I'll call you back." "Aight, hurry up though. Cause I got somewhere to be." I tell him.
