"Where are my grandbabies?" Ms. Pat asked as Kamille and Aalysia walked into the diner

"Their other grandmother just picked them up before we left." Kamille said sitting down at the bar.

"Im sure she will bring them by, I just miss my babies." Ms. Pat said wiping down the counter

"You just seen them yesterday." Kamille said texting Ace back as he informed her that he was going to fuck her up for driving his car.

"Yall have the bank deposits ready?" Kamille asked knowing if she didn't get it then Ace would have to come back and that would just be unnecessary extra for him to do when she could do it.

"Yes and I needed to talk to you and Abdul about something important but I might as well just talk to you since that boy doesn't listen anyways?"

"Everything okay?" Kamille asked raising her eyebrow looking up from her phone

"Of course of course." Ms. Pat said sitting down at the bar pulling out a manilla folder. "Steven and I well You know we're getting old and I trust you more than anybody to look over this place while im here and well after im gone. Youve been here damn near all you life you started here when you were thirteen and you're almost twenty five now. Ive watched you turn into a beautiful smart young woman." Ms. Pat said wiping the tear that started to form in her eyes. "You've bared my grandchildren and take care of one like he is your own and I have so much respect for you. I know you're opening your own salon and things but I just want you to look after this place for me. You know treat it like it's your own." Ms. Pat said sliding the folder across the table

"Really?" Kamille asked honestly baffled

"Yeah. I trust you even if you and my son don't work out I know you have no ill intent in your heart and you will do right by me."

"Of course i will." Kamille said pouting hugging Ms. Pat

"Ooh yall got a bitch emotion." Aalysia said waddling away to the bathroom

"Watch your mouth child hear?" Ms pat said looking over her shoulder

"My bad." She snickered

"I'll help you buss down some of these tables while im here." Kamille said getting up from the counter to grab a bin. She had stopped working at the diner but she would still help out every chance she got. Ace liked her playing the stay at home mom role but she liked to work and just do things on her own. When Ace suggested that they got a nanny or a maid she quickly shut it down knowing she could do it on her own and she did. Ace usually handled his business during the day and came home to her every night with a meal and and bath waiting for him. It had been almost seven years that they had been together and they were still what seemed to be the cupcake stage. Their love was so contagious that someone wouldn't help but to Awe seeing the two interact with eachother even with the kids. The little family wasn't perfect but you'd sure as hell think so.

After Kamille working for two hours straight and Aalysia sitting in a booth sleeping she was done for the day and ready to go home.

"Now what did you really come here for?" Ms. Pat questioned Kamille as they sat in the booth

"Why don't you think Ace hasn't asked me to marry him?" Kamille asked frowning

"I don't know baby maybe he feels like it isn't your time yet but if I were him I would have been locked you down any man would be blessed." Ms. Pat said rubbing Kamille's hand as Ace gilded right into the diner "Now speaking of the devil." Ms. Pat said getting out the booth along with Kamille
