"Tell mommy to wake up." I hear Roddy say. I was awake but my eyes were still closed. Lea puts her small hand on my cheek and kisses my forehead, but then she starts to shout. "MOMMY UP!" My eyes open quickly and I sit up. I wasn't expecting her to be so loud.

Roddy laughs and puts a hand on his chest. Azalea giggles and covers her mouth. I tickle her and she laughs loudly. I make eye contact with Roddy, giving him a sad look. He was going to a different city for a few days and I didn't want him to leave.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" He asks me. "Do you really have to go?" I ask dragging my words. He leans down and kisses me on the lips. "I got to baby, it's work. I won't be gone for long, just three days." Roddy says rubbing his thumb against my cheek.

"But still, I'm gonna miss you. What time are they picking you up?" I sit up against the headboard. Roddy taps it a few times and laughs. "Remember when we broke this?" I try to hide my smile and repeat my question. "Uh, at 1 I think." Azalea lays on me, playing with the doll she had in her hand.

"Did she eat breakfast?" Roddy nods and sits next to me. I put Netflix on for Lea then lay my head on Roddy's shoulder. He kisses the top of my head, making me smile. "How are things with Raylee and Arabella?" I sigh. "Well Raylee apologised to me about that day. She doesn't want anything to do with Arabella and Tione. Arabella doesn't want anything to do Raylee and is still happily dating Tione."

Lea was sat in front of me and Roddy, dancing to the nursery rhymes coming from the TV. "When me and you gonna have a baby?" Roddy asks me. I widen my eyes and stay laying on his shoulder. "Woah there. Slow your roll sir." I respond crossing my legs over his.

"You don't want kids?" I nod my head. "I never said I didn't. You just can't spring that on me like that." I say laughing. Roddy rubs on my arm and kisses the top of my head again. "I love moments like this. When we aren't acting like asses or arguing. It's nice." I say and Roddy hums.

We stay in the same position for a while, being quiet and watching over Azalea. "I got to start getting ready." Roddy tries to get up but I hold onto to him, making him chuckle. "Baby come on. It's 3 days, I'm coming back. Invite some friends over to keep you some company until I come home." I groan and let him go slowly.

I get out of bed and go to the connected bathroom. I pick up my toothbrush and begin to brush my teeth. I hear the little pitter patter of Azalea's feet against the hardwood floor. I rinse my mouth as she taps my leg. "Mommy okay?" I nod my head and pick her up. "You okay baby?"

"Yes mommy." I go back into the bedroom and put Lea on the bed. Roddy was putting his chains on. He picks one up from the stand and comes over to me. "Here, wear this." He shows me his hand and I see the chain. It had a small gold 'R' pendant and it was shining. "Why are you giving this to me?"

Roddy stands behind me, putting the chain on me. I lift up my hair as he clips it in. "I want you to have this. This chain is special to me and I want to give it to you, to show you that I'm serious about you." I let my hair down and touch the pendant on my chest, it was a little cold.

"And I need you to not make any dumb ass decisions. Just look at that chain and know you got a nigga at home. I mean you practically my babymomma now." He says pointing to Azalea. We laugh but Roddy stops with a serious look on his face. He puts his hand on my stomach.
