The Deal About Us

58

We were in the mall and Julia was looking at some dresses while I was going through the shipment on my phone when I saw Julia jumping and waving at me and the cashier looking at her weirdly. I pocketed my phone and walked over to the cashier

"What, why are you looking at her like that?" I snapped at the cashier

"Sorry ma'am" he said and started checking the items

"Did I ask to say 'sorry'? I want to know why did you look at her in that way?" I seethed out

"Uh, ma'am uh she was uh jumping" he said and I rolled my eyes

"Are you going to finish or not?" I asked him pointing at the dresses and heels. I turned around to face Julia

"You don't need heels now" I said

"I like it" she said sticking out her tongue. I payed for the things and walked out of the store with all the bags while Julia ran into another shop.

"Are you hungry?" I asked her

"kinda?" she said back

"I'm allotting you half an hour here" I said and walked towards the kid's section. I saw some pretty cute and funny onesies. Two of them caught my eyes and I went to have a closer look.

'If you don't like taco, I'm nacho type' one read and I laughed. Another one read 'Future lady's man, current mama's boy' That perfectly describes men of our household. I picked up 7 onesies and went towards the cashier to bill it.

She billed it and I went to look for Julia to bill the things she picked up.

We were eating in the food court. Julia stuffed her face with fries while I sipped my coffee

"What did you buy?" she asked with her mouth full

"Don't talk with your mouth full" I replied. She chugged her food down with coke and then asked me again

"I bought some clothes for my on the way godson" I replied and she muttered something which I didn't quite catch

Mom is very excited for Gio's arrival. She is so ready to be his grandmother after Julia's parent's death.

"Can you go and get baby things? I'll give you the money" mom said when I stepped inside with all the shopping bags alone as I dropped Julia to the warehouse because she wanted to meet Grayson and when I refused, she practically cried her eyes out

"Mom, please ask Keith, I'm tired and I also need to visit the ware house" I said

"Tired?"

"Of shopping" I replied showing her the bags
