❝You the one

Ima treat it like a
real man supposed too
Buy you diamonds with
the matching Robbins too❞



At 2:20 pm, I was parked the car pick up lane with all the other parents waiting to pick their children up from school. The bell rang and students started rushing out of the double doors. I remember I used to leave class three minutes earlier before the bell rang so I would be able to be the first one of the school building.


"Mommy!" Masina yelled as she climbed into the car. "Thank you." She said quickly to Joelle as she got in the backseat and who also helped her into the car before returning her attention to me.


"What?" I asked excitedly matching her enthusiasm.


"I made you and daddy this." She said holding up the drawing up high so I could see it.


"That's so cool." I said as I started driving away from the school.


"I know right." She said.


"So girls, how was school? What did you guys learn?" I asked as a parent who is very involved in their education. I always did pop up visits at their school. The teachers had my phone number on speed dial for anything from volunteer work to parent - teacher conferences.


"A lot." Joelle said.


"I don't think Miracle and I are friends anymore." Masina said.


"And why is that?" I asked.


"She said I was a bitch just like my mother." She replied.


"Excuse me?" I asked.


"Yup, she said it in front of me and I popped her in the face." Joelle said confirming what Masina said wasn't a lie.


"I would say that it's not right to put your hands on anyone but then I would be a hypocrite so just remember next time go to a teacher and tell." I said.


"Where are we going?" She asked when she noticed us straying from our normal route.


"Well, we're going to talk to Miracle and her mother because nobody is about to call my baby out of her name." I replied.


"Are you gonna fight auntie Nia, again?" Joelle asked.


"Nope, but I will check her for talking bad about me in front of her child who then goes to my babies and talk like a dirty sailor." I answered.


"Good, cause dad would have a stroke if you were going to fight." Joelle said causing me to laugh.


"You know sometimes your dad is overdramatic and I'm supposed to be the dramatic one in the relationship." I said.


"That's cause he's special." Masina said.


"You can say that again." Joelle said.


We pulled up to Nia and Josh's house.



The girls and I got out of the car. I counted to ten because I really wanted to run up to the house and kick the down and whoop her ass but I realized that my babies are present and I can't embarrass her like that in front of her daughter.


We walked up to the door and I rang the doorbell. A few seconds later. Josh opened the door and his smile dropped once he saw me. I rolled my eyes.


"What are you doing here?" He asked.


"I need to talk to your wife, girlfriend, whatever she is to." I replied.


"You know damn well what she is to me." He said.


"Look, I really don't care. I need to talk to her so go get her or move to the side so we can come in." I said.


"You wouldn't do anything stupid in front of the girls." He said.


"I wouldn't but don't test me, Josh." I said.


"What happened?" He asked.


"Your woman is talking shit about me to Miracle and Miracle is talking crazy to my daughters so we got a problem because I have never bashed her in front of my kids so for her to think she can do it is wrong." I answered.


"Josh, who's at the door?" Nia asked walking up behind Josh.


"Your worst nightmare, Nia." I said smiling and tilting my head to the side.


"What do you want?" She asked.


"To ask you why you think it's okay to talk badly about me to your daughter and why she think it's okay to talk crazy to my daughters." I said.


"I don't know what you're talking about." She said.


"Oh really, Masina, repeat what you told me in the car." I said.


"Miracle, said I was a bitch just like my mother." Masina said. Josh looked at Nia and glared at her.


"So why does Miracle think I'm a bitch?" I asked tying up my hair.


"Nia, go call Joe." Josh said blocking my way. Nia walled away to get the phone.


"Why does she have to call Joe?" I asked.


"Why are you tying up your hair?" He asked.


"It's hot as hell. Oh you thought I was going to swing on her. Josh, if I wanted to fight her I would've been snatched her up as soon as she came to the door." I said.


"Yeah, I believe you." He said.


"Well, I'm not going anyway until Nia and Miracle apologize to Masina. Girls, sit down." I said pointing to the chairs on the porch.


"You're crazy." Josh said.


I smiled. "Joshie, I thought you knew this already. I don't play about my kids or my man so hell yeah I'm crazy." I said. I heard a car pull up in the driveway and I already knew who it was without looking. How the fuck did he get here so fast?


"Daddy!" The girls yelled running to Joe. I turned amd faced him. He looked at me with annoyance.


"My girls." Joe said smiling.


"Daddy, Miracle called me a bitch so mommy came here to make her apologize but uncle Josh said mommy is crazy. I think that's mean and unfair." Masina said pouting. Joe looked at me and then at Josh.


"Well, Josh, go get Miracle to apologize." Joe said causing me to smile. Hell yeah, my man on my side.


"Are you serious?" Josh asked.


"Dead ass, Miracle needs to apologize and where the hell did she learn that from?" Joe asked.


"Miracle said mommy is a bitch too." Masina said.


"Nia!" Josh yelled.


"What?!" Nia yelled walking back to the door.


"Go, get Miracle, we need to end this beef." He said.
