(A/N; Is Ja saying what I think he's saying??) ——— Omniscient POV;
You watched as Ja trudged upstairs before the faint sound of a shower running was heard.
The Point Guard was back from a late practice, 7pm to be exact.
Not the typical or average time for a MemphisGrizzles practice.
However he was back & it was prominent that he was tired—straightexhausted.
Usually he would be on some crackpipe energy & would be trying to get back out on the streets but today's practice put him in check.
He managed a low Wassup baby with a soft kiss before teleporting off.
You felt bad & wanted to help him feel better so an idea was sparked.
Cater 2 U by Destiny's Child rung throughout your head as the song implanted a plan. ——— Fresh from the shower, Ja appeared downstairs to find you.
He was dead tired but that didn't mean he didn't wanna see his baby.
His ears picked up on your voice before he could register the sight infront of him.
"Hey papa, come sit."
You greeted him with a warm smile as you tugged his hand & led him to the table.
On it was Lemon Garlic Butter Salmon with a side of Cilantro Lime Rice.
(A/N; The way I googled that shit)
"You didn't have to mama." Ja scanned the table.
You disregarded the comment & urged him to sit.
Both seated, You began a conversation.
Nothing crazy, just questions about his day & vise versa with you.
Ja did tell you about his long day at practice & how coach was on his ass a lot.
Gazing at him, you can see how drained he was— mentally & physically.
& you felt sorry for him.
Usually he doesn't care about that kind of stuff but it was obvious that it hit a nerve today.
He ranted about how he felt he was letting his team & himself down.
"Babe, it's okay. Everything will come into place, don't be mean to yourself. You'll correct yourself & your team will be there for you, along with me."
