"Please explain to me how ima fit in this shirt when I get bigger?" Sophie asked as she walked from the back of the store, eating an apple. Every time I see Sophie it's like she gets bigger and it's crazy being that she still has a few more months left. Three looked back at her, looking like he wanted to say something smart so she made a face while shaking her head "DONT!"

"I mean you asked a question" he said with a chuckle

"I'm so hungry" sky complained as she walked into the store, taking off her jacket

"I'm so tired" I added as I leaned back against the wall and Sophie looked at me

"Taking care of kentrell's overgrown ass, I would be too"

"She ain't taking care of him. She just tryina find a reason to lay up under him" Bree said out loud as she walked out the back. I looked over at her and laughed. The bell rung, letting us know that somebody came inside the store. We all looked to see who it was and I saw that it was April looking over at nursery rhyme CDs with Tamia, who was holding her baby boy

"Ohh if we get Dj listening to this now, he'll be one of the smartest kids in his class just like his daddy" I could hear April say to Tamia who then giggled and picked up the Cd

"Hold on. I know that ain't-" Sophie said as she pointed her apple in the direction of them while looking at me

"Oou, who that? I wanna be nosey" three said, turning to face us and I shook my head

"Nosey ass"

"Oh Gracie!" April called out, causing all of us to look at her. She seemed surprised to see me and so did Tamia, who held her baby close to her "I didn't know you worked here"

"Just like she didn't know you was best friends with Darren's side bitch" Sophie muttered under her breath as she walked back into the back, making Bree laugh. The door opened again and this time, Ben, baby joe, boomer and Kentrell walked in. He was feeling a lot better, even though he still was in pain every now and then. He got rid of his sling, instead just walks around with his arm bandaged up and his torso is still bandaged as well. I told him so don't think it's a good idea for him to be walking and riding around but we both know Kentrell does not listen at all

"AYE WADDUP LIL NIGGAS" Ben yelled as all of them walked behind the counter

"You know what, to say y'all not on payroll, y'all here all the time" Bree told them and Kentrell smacked his lips as he walked up to me and kissed me before turning around, seeing Tamia and April standing right there.

April looked like her feelings were hurt and Tamia looked as if she saw a ghost but the look on kentrell's face was the funniest. If looks could kill, I honestly believe Tamia would be dead right now. She looked over at April and cleared her throat before speaking

"Um April, I think we should come back some other time so we can actually look through the cds and see which ones we like because right now we're kinda pressed for time"

"Yeah. I agree" April said as well then looked at me "Gracie, it was good seeing you again"

I didn't respond. Instead I just looked at April, which made her sigh as they put the cd back and made their way out the store

"I always knew Tamia was a hoe" Bree said loud enough for her to hear. Both Tamia and April looked back before walking out the door
