*Christmas Day*
"Mommyyyy!!" I felt my son shake me.

"Hm?" "Santa came and bought a lot of stuff." I smiled. "Gimme a minute and I'll be down okay?" He nodded and ran out.

I got up and noticed Christian wasn't next to me. I got up and it was some clothes laid out on the bed. It was a minion onzie and another outfit with a note.

'Put the pajamas on first.'

I grabbed it and went to the restroom. I started the shower while that was going I brushed my teeth.

I finally went downstairs and I smelt food.

"Stank where you at?" I called for Isaiah. "Kitchen." I walked in and it was food from one end to another.

"Good morning." Christian said.

He so prissy he had a whole apron on, gloves on, and whatever else.

"Morning. Merry Christmas boys."I said hugging Desmond and kissing Isaiah. "What about the cook?" I laughed and hugged Christian.

"Where my kiss?" He asked.

I just stared at him. He laughed. "Ight I get it. Go sit down and I'll make your plate."

Last night I found out he had a baby on the way with some girl he had a one night stand with and she like 8 months.

He sat a plate in front of me.

"We need to let him open his presents." I told Christian. "They will once everybody finish eating." I sighed and ate my food.

It was fye as hell. "Who cooked?" I asked.

"Me." He said I stared at him. "Ain't no way you cooked." He laughed. "On my life I did my mama taught me a lil some some."

We was sitting by the tree and Christian began recording him.

"Momma I wanna open the big one first." He said. I nodded and watched him. He tore the paper off the box and stared at me.

"My monster truck? Thank you Mommy." He ran and hugged me. I smiled.

"You can thank Ch--" "Santa and Mommy." Christian said cutting me off. "Thank you Santa." He said.

He opened the others. "Des come open yo gifts." I told him.

"Shit I'm 17 what possibly could I have?"

"Go under the tree and find out." He went looking for the stuff with his name.

I smiled looking at Christian.

Desmond opened one of his gifts. "What's this?" He asked. "Open it mane." Christian said. He sat with me as we watched them.

He opened it to see he got the iPhone X Max.

"Yo y'all cut up with this one." He said. "Keep going you got some more." He told him.

He pulled me into his arms and I laid back on his chest. "When you gone open your presents?" He asked me.

"What you get me?" I asked. "You gotta go look." "I don't feel like it." I said.

"Lazy." I laughed.

"Thank you." I said. "No problem baby girl. My brother would've wanted this."

I smiled thinking about Tino.

I miss him so fucking much. "Christian?" "Hm?" "Can you promise me you want get too involved with the streets and end up like Tino."

"I can't promise you that because I'm already too deep baby I'm sorry."
