1 Year And 4 Months Later
"Yo this Cali weather different" I say using the end of my shirt to wipe the small beads of sweat off my forehead as I walk in the kitchen with a hand full of groceries.
"Did you get everything I told you to get from the store?" Zara asks and I nod setting the bags on the counter.
"Where yo kids at?" I ask opening up the fridge grabbing a cold bottle of water cracking it open.
"Your kids are upstairs in the playroom doing lord knows what"
"What time you tell everybody to come again?" I ask checking the time on my Rolex. Zara wanted to start a new family tradition to help both sides of our families bond since everybody was legally related now so she planned this little family barbecue. I had gave zara her dream wedding 6 weeks after the twins were born and I can honestly say it was one of the happiest moments in my life.
"5" She replies as I read 4 o'clock on my watch.
"Where moms go ain't she supposed to be helping you" I laugh. Me, kil, and ash all went half and bought my mom a house out here in cali since she said she was getting tired of the newyork weather. Along with buying my mom a house I bought a house in Calabasas for me, zara, and the kids, we alternate houses sometimes we in New York or sometimes we in cali. This summer zara wanted to stay in cali so we flew out here, mia usually let harlem stay with me during the summer so he came with us too.
"We done with everything that's why I told you to get the stuff for the pies so those could be baked fresh, she went upstairs to get a little rest before everybody starts coming" She says and I nod.
"Let me go see what yo kids doing"
"Them yo badass kids" She laughs as I chuckle walking out the kitchen.
Walking upstairs I could already hear they bad ass yelling fucking shit up.
Walking down the hall I walk in the doorway of the playroom seeing toys everywhere and little bodies running around laughing besides harley who was at the little table coloring minding her business.

"Everybody freeze" I tell them and they all freeze in place giggling.
"By the time I come back in here all this better be picked up aight?" I question and they all nod in sync still giggling.
"Why y'all giggling so much?" I ask hearing Mireya quickly walking past the room.
"You freeze too" I tell her and I hear her footsteps come to a stop. Craning my neck back I eyed her suspiciously.

"You gave them some candy didn't you?"
".... They wouldn't stop begging, please don't tell mommy" She pleads.
"I gotchu but you owe me four potty empties and a diaper change" I was over this potty training shit so why not have her take care of it.
"Two diaper changes and a gatorade run" She negotiates and I think for a minute, if I'm playing my park or fortnite and I get thirsty I won't be able to run and get a gatorade so this solid would definitely come in handy.
"Two diaper changes and two gatorade runs, final offer"
"Deal" She smiles turning around running down the stairs.
"Pick these toys up" I tell quadruple trouble.
"If you trip and fall you better not cry" I tell a running harlem as he ran towards the bed where killa sat sleeping.
"Don't bring all they bad ass in here" Zara says from the bathroom.
"Shut up, you know these lil niggas follow me everywhere" I chuckle walking in the bathroom doorway seeing zara getting ready and mymy sitting on the toilet watching her.
"Ya hair everywhere" I tease mireya.

"Don't do my baby" Zara chuckles.
"Do yo baby hair then" I laugh walking out the doorway before she could hit me.
"Shut up, and go check that meat on the grill"
"That's where I'm going, come on rugrats we going outside"
"You gone stop calling my babies that" Zara laughs as I pick up my two princesses and walk out the room following my young kings and killa.
They ran down the stairs and in the kitchen as I followed not to far behind them. Unlocking the patio doors I opened one side of the doors letting them walk out first before I did the same.
Harlem and zahir ran separate ways as I put both my princesses on their little feet, killa followed me as I walked over to the grill. Opening the top I used the grill tonsils to flip over the ribs, hamburgers, and brats.
"Where zahir go lem?" I ask harlem who shrugs helping zari keep her balance. Zari Jorlin & zahir Joren were only 1 years old and it was obvious who the more clumsy one, zari was always falling when she was walking but zahir on the other hand would run circles around you with no problem.
"Make sure she don't fall while I go see where ya brother at" I tell him and he nods, I wasn't worried about harley cause she was 2 going on 3 and very smart for her age.
Closing the lid on the grill I set the tonsils to the side before heading to the front to find zahir. Walking in the driveway I found him with his little BMW infront of zara's actual BMW.
