Psalm 13:5-6

But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

I will sing unto the Lord, because He hath dealt bountifully with me.

They traveled from Raleigh to Charlotte for the football game. Joy arrived at the stadium with Renee and Raven, her stepsisters. The two women were twenty-four and twenty-five, respectively. Joy always enjoyed herself whenever they hung out, but she’d never been able to relax and be comfortable in their presence. When her mother had mentioned Dontae’s football game, she made Joy promise to have fun, and that’s exactly what she planned to do.

“Renee, girl, you must be trying to catch yourself a baller with that short skirt you’re styling tonight,” Joy said as she watched her young sister strut her stuff in four-inch heels and a three-inch skirt.

“You better know it,” Renee said as she swiveled around so her sisters could check her out. “Dontae better not play me today. We’re at the game in style sitting up in these box seats, so he better bring some of his teammates up here after the game.”

“And if he does, what are you planning to do with Dontae’s friends?” Ramsey asked as he and Carmella appeared in the open doorway.

“Daddy, leave Renee alone. If she wants to snag a rich husband, I say go for it,” Raven said. She wasn’t as scantily dressed as her sister, but her style was showing through with the cute little silk sundress she sported. No high heels, just flip flops… the two sisters couldn’t have been more different in their style of dress.

“That’s my baby-girl; I’ll never leave her alone. Not even when she’s been married for twenty-five years,” Ramsey declared.

“Thank God I’m not the baby-girl,” Raven said.

“Oh, the same goes for you,” Carmella told her jokingly. “I’ve seen how protective Ramsey is over you girls. So, just make sure you’re on your best behavior tonight.”

“That includes you, too, Joy.” Ramsey hugged her and then added, “I know you don’t get out much because you work so hard, so I want you to have fun tonight.” He then squinted his eyes and leaned forward until their foreheads were almost touching. “But I’m watching out for you, too.”

“Leave these girls alone, Ramsey.” Carmella grabbed his arm. “Come with me over to the food table. I want to see how the caterer set up everything. I might be able to get a few pointers from them.”

“That’s my wife, always thinking about business,” Ramsey said as he allowed himself to be pulled away from the girls.

“Hey, I’m just trying to make us millionaires by the time you retire.”

“Carmella, it will be another decade before I retire, so I’m going to need you to become a multi-millionaire in that timeframe. After being a principal for all these years, I’m going to need to rest my mind in Hawaii, Germany, France, and London.”

“Don’t forget about Italy and Paris… that’s where I want to go,” Carmella reminded him.

“Baby, I would take you around the world and back,” Ramsey said just before kissing Carmella.
