"You are so aggy," Jakiyah giggled as Daniel pulled Jakiyah into the middle of the street.
"Shut up, and do bachata with me," he said, wrapping an arm around her waist.
"You are so Hispanic," Jakiyah teased, and put her arms around her neck.
Corazón Sin Cara played out the speakers on Jakiyah's mother's porch, so Daniel made sure to sweep her away from everyone to make her dance with him. Tonight was her birthday, and with all the people around they barely got to spend time together. Not to mention when either of them were on baby duty tending to Alani, they couldn't be together. Now that Danielle had Alani, Daniel got the chance to take Jakiyah away from everyone and spend some time with her.
"You enjoyin' your night?" Daniel asked in her ear as one hand travel down to her butt.
"Yeah. Thank you for helping my mom with this," Jakiyah thanked.
"Of course, bae. You deserve a lil party."
Daniel spun her around before pulling her back close to him.
"It's good to see my mom and everyone, too. We haven't been to the Bronx in a minute."
"Dead ass," Daniel agreed.
Daniel continued to dance with Jakiyah, but his eyes were towards the steps where Danielle and Kenzo sat with Alani. A pink pacifier was in her mouth while she sat on Kenzo's lap with her phone in her hand. It always amazed Daniel how gentle and caring Kenzo was with Alani. She'd always treated Alani like she was her own, and Daniel greatly appreciated it because he wanted Alani to have loving female figures in her life.
"I hate that she gettin' so big, but love it since it's gonna give us a lil more freedom," Daniel said, returning his attention to Jakiyah.
"Yeah. She's growing fast way too fast. Sometimes I look at her, and it doesn't even feel like she's going on two," Jakiyah said.
