I woke up to laughter coming from inside the house. I rolled over and looked at the clock on the wall and realized I had slept for four hours. I was more tired than I had originally thought. Slipping my feet back into my shoes, I fixed the bed back up, following the voices that I heard. Cutting the corner, I saw that everyone was scattered throughout the kitchen, and Priest had come over too. I rounded the corner, taking a seat beside Kross at the bar. “Did you sleep well?” Dear asked.

“Yes, ma’am, that bed was so comfortable. I honestly wasn’t expecting to sleep that long.”

“We’re getting ready to have supper. Deacon decided to fire up the grill. I’m sure you’re famished by now.”

“I could eat.”

“Damn, sis-in-law, you not gon’ speak to ya boy?” Priest said.

I rolled my eyes. “Hey, Priest.”

“Mommy, I have an uncle, and he told me that he was going to buy me a cellphone so I could call him. He’s gon’ come pick me up and take me for ice cream,” Kaia excitedly said.

“Well, I don’t know about the phone, but he can come and pick you up.”

“Nawl, she got to get a phone so she can call us when she wants to talk,” Kross said.

“We can talk about that later, Kross.”

“Sis-in-law, call your girl for me. She hasn’t been answering when I hit her up.”

“For good enough reasons, but here. You call.” I handed him my phone and watched him walk out of the kitchen.

“What was that about?” Kross whispered.

“The night they spent together. I don’t know too much, but I do remember her saying that she wasn’t fucking with him anymore.”

“What that nigga do?”

I shrugged my shoulders.

“Food’s ready. Wash your hands so we can eat,” Deacon said, coming inside with a pan full of meat. I watched Kross and Priest fight over the sink before Dear turned around and popped both of them with a wooden spoon.

“Nobody is eating before I fix my grandbaby and her mother’s plate. You two should be ashamed of yourselves. The both of them recoiled when she spoke. “Get the hell out of my way.” she scolded. “Is there anything that she doesn’t eat or is allergic too?”

“No, ma’am, she’s not a picky eater.”

“Good. Come and wash your hands so I can feed y’all.”

I got up from the bar, rolled my eyes, and stuck my tongue out before going to wash my hands. After the food was served, we sat at the table as a family and held hands while Deacon blessed the food.

After everyone had eaten, Priest decided to head back to Atlanta. Let him tell it, my friend was fucking with his ego, so head to go check her on it. I sat in the living room and watched Deacon and Dear crowd around Kaia showing her old photo albums. “Are you too tired to take a ride with me? I want to show you something,” Kross asked as he stood up.

“Lead the way.”

“Dear, do you mind watching Kaia while I take Suny up to the brewery?”

“Bye, Kross.
