New York 10:25 am

“Happy Birfday Mommy!!!”.My eyes fluttered open to see PJ standing on the side of my bed with a trey full of food in his hands. Sitting up quickly and taking it from his grip, I smiled picking him up and placing him beside me

“Thank you baby! Who helped you do this for me?”

“TeTe Karin”.

I smacked my teeth, rolling my eyes as she entered my room with a class of wine.

“Already bitch, it’s only 10 something”.

Shrugging her shoulders, she sat on the other side of my bed and got comfortable, turning the TV for PJ.

“I don’t give a shit if it’s 8 something. This how I get my mornings started”.

I laughed shaking my head and began eating the food. I have no damn Idea why I ever gave Karin crazy ass a key to the house, but she’s my best friend so I do appreciate her coming here and doing this for me.

New York 9:10 pm

“Ana, what time do you plan on being back?”.

My mother questioned. I laughed, walking out of my closet and smiling at her.

“Why mother you have other plans”.

She chuckled lowly and shook her head.

“No, but you know PJ has always wakes up like its the afternoon, wanting to play and such and well I just be wanting my sleep”.

I laughed, shaking my head. If I didn’t know better, it sounded like she was trying to make other plans for the night. But I’ll leave well enough alone.

Jessi

7:20 

“So where did you meet her? Do you like her? what’s she like? she live around her”.

I laughed, backing up and giving my mom the stank lip. All these damn questions she been throwing at me for the last 2 hours have drove me crazy.

“Dang ma. And I met her at school, yes I’m feeling her and she lives over in Bedford Stuyvesant”.

He eyes wide. She wasn’t too fond of that neighborhood, partly because that’s we’re she grew up and that’s we’re we lived our whole elementary school days. We ain’t always had money, my mom business wasn’t always popping. But then when I hit 6th grade, that’s when it took off. Ever since then we been straight.

“So I’ll know by tomorrow on the announcements if I made the team?”.

I questioned Mickey and Paige as I got out the car. Paige nodded, handing me my purse that was beside her in the backseat.

“Yep,our cheer coach will be announcing it. Fingers crossed, you did good today though”.

I smiled, closing the door and smiling at the m as I backed up towards my gate.

“Thank’s guys. I’ll see you tomorrow”.

“Yo Paige what the fuck, hurry up. Like damn”

I yelled through the house. Yo I’m glad my mom got me my first whip, but if I would have know that came with me having to take my running-late ass sister with me every morning, I would have gave her the keys back.

“Watch your mouth Jessi….”

I smacked my teeth, watching my mother scramble for her keys before she turned towards me and pointed her finger.

“I’m working over time tonight. Order you guys something or get something but be in the house by 8 and no company. I’m not playing Jessi”

Monte

6:20 pm

After scrambling around the hotel room like a fucking chicken with my head cut off, I finally had it all together. The gold carpet event starts at 7 and the draft at 8. I got my mom, my brother, Coach Mora, Alanna and  my baby girl and everybody was just as nervous as me. This was the moment I’ve always dreamed about as a kid, and here I am living it. I stared at myself in the hotel bathroom mirror, running my hands over my face. I prayed so hard last night, just that God helps me stay humble and I couldn’t leave out a thank you for the blessing I am about to be apart of. Shaking off the anxiety, I smiled at myself and slid the watch on that Coach had got me earlier this week.

“Ayo lil boy, lets go the damn car outside for your ass”

“Iight shit”.

Spraying myself with a little more cologne, I swung the bathroom door open, greeted with the faces of my family.

6:15 PM 

“And why can’t I come. You never bring me around your mom. What she don’t like me or sum’n”

I starred into India’s eyes, trying not to laugh in her face. Of course my mother didn’t like her, she couldn’t stand her ass and every chance she get to talk shit about her she takes the opportunity. So to alleviate the tension that would arise because of her presence, I just will simply not invite her to Sunday dinner out with my mom.

“No baby, it ain’t that. It’s just me and Mase. My momma only in town just to see us. You know she still in New York. Any chance she gets to have us alone to herself, she’ll take it. iight?”.

Bibby

7:20 am

“Wake up nigga”.

I snapped out of my sleep, smacking my teeth and looking at Amirah. When I tell you it felt like Bayleigh kept waking up back to back I mean that shit. And all these mufuckas slept through it. I’m tired as hell.

“She got her 1 week doctors appointment today. You wanna come”.

I nodded, stretching my body out in the little ass chair beside her crib then stood up. following her out the room and too our room. I walked straight to the bed and fell out. Im pissed she had me sleep in that tight ass chair while she got to enjoy the bed.

“Ya back hurt? Good”.
