The following day, Steven is getting dressed to go to the cookout. But he didn't tell Malaysia he was going to a cookout. He told her he was going to handle some business.

"What am I supposed to do while you're gone?", asked Malaysia.

"I don't know bae. Go to the spa, shopping, make some friends", said Steven.

"Shopping sounds good actually", said Malaysia.

"Take my card", he said. "The black one"

"I got my own money too ya know", said Malaysia.

"Save it", said Steven. "I wanna spend money on you"

Steven sat down to put his shoes on.

Malaysia got behind him and kissed his neck.

"Don't start nun you ain't gone finish", said Steven.

Malaysia giggles. "You smell good", said Malaysia.

"Thank you", said Steven.

Steven stood up.

"I'm about to go. I'm running late", he said.

"Okay, cool", said Malaysia. "Have fun"

Steven gave her his card.

"Get whatever", he said.

"You know I will", said Malaysia.

Steven chuckled and left.

Once Steven got to Britney's house, she put Sierra into the car and Brittney got into the car as well. Steven began driving.

"You smell good. Is that the cologne I brought you?", she asked.

"..yea", he replied.

"Glad you like it", said Brittney.

Steven didn't say anything.

Once they got to the house, the people who had already met Steven was happy to see him. Brittney's family was more welcoming than Malaysia's and he kinda liked that.

Steven hugged Brittney's mom. "Good to see you", said Steven.

"No it's good to see you and that my daughter can keep you", said her mom.

Steven looked at Brittney.

"Mom, that's not nice", said Brittney.

"Sorry", said her mom. "Anyways, Steven what have you been up to?"

"Nothing much really ma'am. I've just been relaxing", said Steven.

"And taking good care of me", said Brittney.

"Yea..that too", said Steven with a fake smile.

"I'm going to go check on the food", said her mom.

"Okay", said Steven.

Her mom walked away.

"You see what I mean? She's starting already", said Brittney.

"It's okay", said Steven. "Chill out"

Brittney shook her head.

"Like I tell you all the time, if you don't like it, don't bring yo ass around them. Stop trying to prove yourself", said Steven.

Brittney shed a tear but wiped it.

"I personally don't like how they be doing you either", said Steven.

"...you know, you're right. Let's go", said Brittney.

"We done came here now", said Steven.

"Well we're leaving", said Brittney. "I'm going to go tell my mom."
