Just in cause y'all didn't know the last chapter was a flashback. It was to show how close they were.

  

( Sorry for any mistakes I can't spell sometimes)



" Yeah," It echoed in my head for a while till I finally woke up.

It was just a dream I thought to myself.

Thankfully. I've been having this dream on repeat for the past few days. I just moved back home so Lay could be closer to my parents but I'm still scared we might run into him.  I don't know what his reaction would be or what his lifes been like since I moved. 

I walk to Lay's room and shook her awake. 

" Baby it time to wake up. Go brush your teeth and Imma make breakfast okay?" I tell her.

" Okay. Wait mommy I get to see my cousin today!" She yells.

My sister has a 6 year old and todays her birthday. I haven't seen either of them in 5 years. My parents weren't mad when I got pregnant more disappointed. But since all of high school I had been working I was able to move and buy my own house and support my daughter. Of course with the help of my best bitch Morgan.

" Ya baby go brush your teeth." I said to her.

I walked to the kitchen and made us some bacon and eggs. Lay came into the kitchen and we started eating. 

A while into us eating we heard yelling.

" What is wrong with you! You really gon sit up here and lie like you wasn't just with that other hoe." The girl yelled.

" Why you all up in my phone?" Dude yelled back

" That's not the point. Who is these bitches Quincy?" They yelled .

I stopped in my track. Ain't no way in hell, I thought. 5 years of avoiding this man and he's living right next to me. 

Nope it's not him there's more Quincys in the world. I thought to myself. 

I snap outta my trace after hearing glass being thrown around. 

" You done?" I ask Lay, she nods " Okay go watch some tv and let me clean up and then we get ready." 

I finish and get both of us out of there within an hour.

We made it to my dad's and I felt a wash of relief. 

Most of the memories I have here are all good. 

" Granddaddy" Lay screamed. 

My dad and me have a on and off relationship. One minute we could be best friends and the next we could not be talking for the next few weeks.

" Hey granddaddy baby. How are you doing?" He asks her. 

" Good where's my cousin?" she asked he laughed and out her down she ran off somewhere.

" How are you doing my child?" My dad questions.

" Pretty good. I mean I can't really complain." I reply back. 

I went inside and talked to people I haven't seen in while. 

Eventually it got late and Lay refused to come home and wanted to stay at my dads so I was headed home.

 I stopped at the store to get some snacks when I ran into someone. 

" Omg Lani hi, how are you?" Sani asked.
