"Liyah, I miss you so much best friend" I whined while I spoke to her on the phone as I stuffed French fries into my mouth. After we finished shopping around, we stopped at the food court to get something to eat and somehow Kd and Kentrell both ended up with us
"I miss you too. I'll be out there before New Years" liyah replied back and I could hear her momma saying something in the back and liyah smacked her lips "Noel my momma said hey"
"Tell momma I said hey"
"She said hey, now bye" liyah said to her momma and I laughed before she spoke again "I gotta go. I'll talk to you later"
"Okay" I told her before hanging up and looked at Kentrell
"What?" He rudely asked with his arm stretched across the back of my seat. I reached over to his food and grabbed some of his fries which caused him to smack his lips
"You gotta whole plate full of fries"
"No I don't. I ate em all"
He looked down at my plate and looked at me some type of way before shaking his head
"Fat ass. Here" he pushed the fries over to me and I smiled
"Yay! Thank you baby" I tried to kiss him but he turned his head
"Don't kiss me and yo breath smell like cheeseburger"
"Oh, fuck you" I frowned and pushed him some before eating some more fries
"How the hell you eat so much and don't gain no weight?" Kd asked while he watched me continue to eat the fries. I shrugged and looked back at my butt
"Cause it all going back there"
"I keep telling Noel she getting thick"
I held up a fry in my hand and smiled then held up to kentrell's lips
"Say ahhh"
"Noel. If you'on get that fry out my damn face"
"I can't feed you?"
Kentrell just side eyed me while Kd burst out laughing
"That nigga a grown ass man"
"To y'all. But this MY baby" I responded to Kd as I grabbed kentrell's head and laid it on my shoulder. All he could do was smirk
"That's why Kentrell act like a big ol baby. Look at how you treat that nigga" Kd told me and Kentrell grabbed a fry off of the plate, throwing it at him
"Hey! Don't waste good fries" I fussed while moving the plate over some and ate a couple of fries. Just as I looked up against eyes laid on Jamie and Daejah. Daejah pushed a stroller while Jamie walked beside her with a couple of bags in her hands from children's place
"There go the thots of the south" Kd said which made Elena laugh and Kentrell shook his head, chuckling as well
"Shut up Kd" Daejah told him as she was about to walk pass but Jamie ended up stopping at the table making Daejah look at her some type of way
"Is Ben here with y'all?"
"Yeah. He right here" Kentrell sarcastically told her while pointing to the empty chair on the other side of me. Jamie smacked her lips and Daejah rolled her eyes before looking at me.
It's like her eyes burned through me but I don't know why she's still upset.
"Is my best friend up?" I asked while I stood up and walked over to the stroller. Daejah moved back a little bit and I peaked into the stroller to see Bryson playing with a toy, making hella noise. He looked at me and started cheesing hard
"Jamie what are y'all feeding this boy? Him and Kaleb the same age and he a whole lot bigger than him"
"Bryson greedy as hell. Tell her Daejah" Jamie said to Daejah who was paying attention to her phone. She looked up at Jamie
"Mhmmm" she responded before looking back at her phone "Jamie you remember we gotta gotta head out in a little bit"
"Oh yeah. I'll catch y'all later"
I crouched back down to Bryson and he started smiling again, reaching for my hair which was dangling a little
"I'll see you later fat man" I told him with a smile and he just continued to give me the biggest gummy smile possible

"Two hundred dollars for a 6 month old?" Kentrell asked as I got into the bed and nodded
"Yes. Is that a problem"
"Yeah. The fuck a baby gone do with two hundred dollars worth of shit. The lil nigga can't even walk"
I looked at Kentrell and rolled my eyes "shut up cause if I was to pop a baby out right now, you'd go spend thousands of dollars tomorrow for Christmas"
"You damn right"
While he typed away on his phone, I laid my head on his chest and wrapped my arms around his torso, reading what he was texting. When I realized he was texting my momma, I arched up my eyebrow
"The hell you texting my momma for?"
"Cause we grown as fuck. Mind yo business"
I frowned up my face and he scrolled up through their old messages and clicked on a picture she sent him, showing it to me. When I saw that it was a baby picture of me in the tub I sat up and snatched the phone out of his hand
"Why did she send that to you?!"
"Cause it's cute. Ima make this my lock screen" he told me as he snatched the phone back and I tried to snatch it again but he was too quick with moving it
"Kentrell don't do that!"
"You'on tell me what to do" he mumbled while he did something on his phone so I reached for it again but he moved it
"Stop Noel"
"You know what, ima sleep on the couch tonight" I tried to get up out of the bed but he grabbed my hand. I snatched it away and quickly got out of the bed then left the living room which made Kentrell laugh as he got up and followed behind me
