"How do you get her to stick by you?" Uncle Ant ask.

I was listening in.

Him, Nast, Rocky, and Twelvyy were not biological.

"She wants to make it work, but we only together forreal at night" Dad said.

"Pussy?"

"Shut the fuck up" Dad said.

I made a disgusted face from the kitchen and went back to sweeping.

"Hi boys" My mom said, coming into the living room. "You're Nast...Rocky.....Ant aaaaannnnnd...Twelvyy. Was I right?"

"Yes" Dad spoke. "What's them bags for?"

"Just some things that I picked up from the mall. I'm going to go upstairs I guess. See you later."

"Aight"

"But I want food first" She burst into the kitchen. "Hi, Dash"

"Hey, momma"

"I did research on you. When do you box next?"

"Four nights from now"

She nodded her head and went towards the fridge. "Who's your manager? Do you have a coach?"

"Dad and Uncle Deon handle that my professional stuff. Seth does my illegal stuff"

She raised her eyebrow, but didn't speak. "Apparently, I fought your dad in a parking garage. I can't say anything."

She washed her hands before she grabbed a bag of frozen fruit and turned to me. "Do you have a girlfriend? Or a partner of any sort?"

"You asking me if I'm gay?"

"Nope. Forget I even said anything" She walked out.

After I finished cleaning up the kitchen, I stuck my head out into the living room. "Excuse me, dad?"

Momma was sitting on his legs.

"Yeah?" He turned towards me.

"Can I go out tonight? Seth's hosting a party"

"After you do your homework. You got one worksheet to do"

I nodded my head. "Thank you"

"Don't get caught up in no bullshit. Do. Not. Street. Fight."

"I won't"

"See you later, Darold" Momma got up and went upstairs.

Dad sighed. "Fuck."

"Let me get you a drink, handsome"

"I don't drink" I shut her down.

"Well then I have something to roll up" She turned and started digging through her purse.

"I don't smoke either. And I don't know you. Why would I smoke your weed? Do I look dumb?"

"You're boring! You gotta loosen up sometimes"

"You want to suck my dick?! Get out my face"

She got up quickly, and Seth brought two females over.

They both sat at my side.

"They expressed interest in you" He drank straight from a bottle.

I smiled and leaned back. "What's so interesting about me?"'

"You are so handsome" The girl on the right got up and sat down on my lap.

I smirked. "Oh really?"

She kissed my jaw. "Yes sir"

Her friend touched my arm, and I pulled away.

Her sweaty hands might as well have been wet rags.

"Girl, come on!" The other one said, loosing her cool.

Her attitude quickly changed. "Sorry"

I noticed that her eyes were wide and glossed over.

I looked up, and saw another girl and a nigga eyeing me.

"Get the fuck up and go tell them people that you with that it ain't happening" I said.

The got up hesitantly, and I pulled the nervous one towards me.

She had track marks on her arm.

I let her go immediately after seeing that.

I stood, and went to go look for Seth.

"Nigga, you tryna get me robbed?"

"Oh shit! They not just some bitches?"

"They here with a pimp or and another one of them. I can't trust yo ass at all" I laughed.

"My bad" He looked around, way past gone.

"Man, see you later" I dapped him up, and headed home.
