Karma
April 5
1:07 pm"How you like it?" The lady asked as I looked at myself in the mirror.
"I love it"
I continued to stare at myself in the mirror at the wedding dress. My ball gown style white dress with a sweetheart neckline, tons of jewels, and multiple layers of tule was beyond perfect! I felt exactly like the princess I wanted to look like on my day
I turned around and saw Lani smiling while my mom covered her mouth, crying
"Ma. I know you not crying"
"Shut up" she laughed while wiping her eyes "I'm just so happy for you"
"Does it feel too tight or loose?" The lady asked and I shook my head
"No but let's pray this baby don't show until after the wedding cause this is literally just enough room for me"
She laughed "oh you're pregnant? Congratulations!"
"Thank you" I smiled, hearing somebody walk into the shop.
"Kayla yours late already" some girl at the front said and as the other girl responded, I turned around as well as Lani
When I saw Kayla going behind the counter sitting her stuff down my heart felt like it sank into my stomach for some reason
"What's wrong kay?" My mom asked as she followed me and Lani's gaze but I shook my head, turning to look back at the mirror again
"Nothing..."
"So you're sure it's good enough for you?"
I nodded, running my hands down the dress "yeah. Let me take this thing off before I try to go home in it"
"And she probably will.. go ahead and take it off" ma told me and I laughed, stepping off of the platform with their help and went to the dressing room. After I managed to get out of the dress I met my mom and Lani, grabbing my phone from Lani
"Why Benji ain text me yet to let me know how my baby doing?"
"They probably ain even thinking about you"
I rolled my eyes with my face frowned up while I text him to see what they were doing
"I'm really starting to think Hendrix a daddy's boy Forreal"
"You just starting to realize that?"
"I meannnn.." I shrugged "I would think he'd be a momma's boy but no. He like being all up under Benji and ion like that too much. You can literally give a child life and they still run to their daddy"
"You'll be alright. You gotta whole new one coming. Try again with that one" ma said as she rubbed my stomach while we started to head to the front and Kayla looked me right in the face
"Alright we've got your dress ready and prepared so all well have to do is have it brought to you that morning" the woman told me with a smile and I nodded, avoiding eye contact with Kayla
"Okay. Thank you"
"Make sure don't nothing happen to my sister dress now" Lani told them and I laughed, peeping Kayla rolling her eyes
" I can promise you, her dress will be perfect when she gets it.. I'll see you all in a couple of weeks.. oh and karma congratulations on the baby again"
"Thank you" I smiled again before walking out of the store behind my mom and Lani

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>"So when you gone tell Kay y'all got approved for the house?" I asked Benji while I opened the barbecue sauce to dip my nuggets in
"I'll tell her later. Her ass been stressed tryina rush cause she was late this morning to go try on her dress"
"Look at yall. Bout to get married, moving in a new house and a new baby. Y'all on that hood fairytale shit" Meechie chuckled
As soon as I sat my barbecue sauce down Hendrix took the chicken nugget he was eating and dipped in in my sauce making me look at him
"I know you ain just..."
He looked at me while eating the nugget and then turned his head to grab his cup
"That's what y'all get for letting him run over y'all" Benji shrugged
"You lucky I like you lil boy" I told him and he laughed
"When y'all get to move in so we can turn that bitch up?" Meechie asked Benji and he ran his hand across the top of his head
"Shit.. after we finish signing them papers we in they"
Benji's phone started ringing so he looked at it and sucked his teeth
"That Kay ain it?"
"Hell yeah..." he then looked over at Hendrix "you wanna talk to yo momma?"
Hendrix wasn't paying Benji any attention. Instead he kept dipping his nuggets in my sauce
"I guess that's a no"
He declined the call and I laughed
"Dont do my friend like that. That's why she gone beatcho ass"
"Ion know what karma be tellin y'all but she damn sure don't beat shit"
His phone started ringing again so he declined it yet again and she called right back
"You better stop playin with big karma. You know she pregnant and hormonal" Meechie told him
"I ain lyin" he mumbled before answering her FaceTime call
"WHY THE FUCK YOU DECLINING MY DAMN CALLS?!" Kay immediately asked with an attitude and Benji looked at the phone some kind of way
"Who the hell you talkin to like that?"
"YOU! Where my baby at?"
"Minding his business"
"Benji- don't play with me. Where my son at?"
He walked over to me and Hendrix and put Hendrix in the camera
"Told you... hormones" Meechie said and Kay sucked her teeth
"Fuck you meechie!... hey momma's baby. Whatchu eating?"
"Ma!" Hendrix yelled, stuffing the chicken nugget in his mouth
"Ight. Hendrix said he busy. Bye!" Benji rudely told her before hanging up the phone and I shook my head
"Kay gone beatcho ass"
"Ain nobody worried bout her, she'll be Ight" he carelessly said and I laughed a little
"Yeah Ight. We'll see"
