"You already got her registered for school?" I asked my momma, referring to serenity. She came over to the house this morning before she leaves for her flight to go visit her family for the rest of the week

"Yeah. You already know I do the school stuff early. I don't like last minute. She's staying with one of her friends for the rest of the week and they're supposed to go school clothes shopping together so I gave her some money to get whatever she wants"

"Knowing you, it ain't just SOME money"

My momma laughed "girl hush. I was the same way when you were in school"

"You want some cereal?" I randomly asked her and she shook her head

"No.. but why y'all eating cereal? You usually like to cook breakfast"

I shrugged "we just wanted cereal"

As I said that, Benji walked into the kitchen

"Wassup ma" he spoke to my momma and she spoke back as he walked right past me

"Mhhh" I muttered as I poured the rest of the cereal from the box in my bowl and she looked between the both of us but didn't say anything.

I could hear him going through every cabinet as I finished pouring the cereal and sat the box down. He looked back at me before coming over to where I was and grabbed the empty box, shaking it

"You wanna start this early in the morning?"

"Oh, this was your cereal? Oops" I sarcastically said and he gave me the nastiest look

"You'on even eat cereal. Childish as hell"

"Well me and my kids wanted cereal"

"Bet" he simply responded while going to grab a cup and my momma laughed

"The both of y'all were made for each other. I swear"

"He's just a little upset. It'll be okay" I calmly said to her while throwing the cereal box away.

I then went to grab the milk and once I picked it up I realized it was empty so I looked at benji and saw he was walking over to the table where the kids were, drinking from his cup

"Really dimitri?"

"Oh you was bout to use the rest of that milk? Oops" he said, tryina be funny with his corny ass "Better put some water on it"

I stuck my finger up and again, my momma laughed

"You know what, let me get out of here and go to the airport"

"You sure you'on wanna take all four of them" I pointed at the table "the big one included"

"How about you and dimitri stop this petty war y'all got going on. Now I see where Hendrix get it from. When he gets mad at serenity he'll take something of hers and hide it under her bed. Every single time"

"I wonder where he get that from" I sarcastically said while looking at benji

"You ain gone beat my ass bout it"

"Who won't?"

"Hendrix, make sure mommy and daddy behave while I'm gone. Okay?" My momma said to him as she grabbed her purse and he nodded

"Okay Mimi"

"It's a shame when you gotta tell the baby to watch his parents cause they don't know how to act.. now I'm leaving. I'll talk to y'all later"
