Neaveah pov

"So Neaveah what's up with the new stepmom?" asked my aunt Rachel

We were handing out with my aunt Rachel today. And by we I mean Ish, Trish, my bestfriends Rowco and Kadijah. When it comes on to my best friends they also think Rachel is their aunt too. So we all are having lunch. The six of us, well seven included my other goon Kathrine, haven't seen each other for God knows how long. When the little incident with my father happen Rach and I had a moment and that was it so now we making up for all that and this day is going to be a very long and tiring day.

"The new stepmother is Awesome, Beautiful, Cool, Kind, Loving, Caring, Patient, did I already say Beautiful?" Trish giggled

"OMG this one got you whipped over." Kadijah added

Trish, Ish and I laughed. Now to say Heaven got us whipped is not true, wait is it?

"Nah that's not true." Ish added with a smile

"It doesn't look so." Rowco said

"Give them a break guys we must catch them in action one day."

Whenever she say that we better expect it.

"How long do you think this one is going to stay?" asked Rowco

For some reason I felt offended, I felt the urge to defend Heaven but of course Ishmael beat me by it.

"Her name is Heaven and this one ain't going no where." Ish said sternly

Rach, Rowco and Kadijah exchanged glances, and they some what looked shocked. They didn't expect such outburst especially from him.

"Did I say anything to offend you Ishmael?" Rowco asked

"Yes indeed!" The three of us said in unison

"You all really like this woman don't you?"

We nodded.

"Then we have to get Mr. E serious about her." Kadijah said 

When I am with my friends I called my Dad, well we call my Dad Mr. E, It was Rowco's idea and we just went along.....like always.

"Mr. E is serious about her." I said

"How would you know?"  Rach asked

"Because he proposed to her and she is like seven and a half months pregnant." I answered

"What?!" The three of them said at the same time

"How come my own brother didn't tell me that?" Rach asked

"The same reason why you didn't hear it from either of us."I gestured to Ish and Trish

"And that is?" Kadijah said

"We are caught up in the moment." Ish said

"Well guess what Dijah and Rowco?"  Aunt Rach said

We sometimes call Kadijah. Dijah as her nick name. Because we needed something short. Of course since she's my bestfriend I was the one who came up with it. 

"I can't guess at the moment." Rowco said "I'm too hurt to guess right now."

We all laughed at him, that's Rowco for you all.

"What?" Kadijah said to Rach

"We are taking a little visit to the Prestly house, since I know for a fact that Emmanuel won't be home."

"Now we talking." Rowco said

They didn't wait for our debate, they just got up and started to walk. Since lunch was on Rach she put a hard $50 dollar bill on the table, May I highlight that we didn't eat anything? What type of lunch is this? oh yes the type when family want to be all up in your business. She started walking towards her car. I didn't really care because deep down I really missed Baby. Yes Baby, nobody was finding that name that could give Mom that feeling so we all stopped trying much to Mom's displease. Whenever Dad called the baby a name Mom would tell him that's not her name and she is not going to name her that, so he should stop. Granpa Miguel came back and the same thing she told him so now we all call her Baby,
