Love ain't never been so close, but so far away
Like your mind is telling you to just back off
And your heart says just stay
What's a love that doesn't keep you up all night and all day
If it's not too late, yeah you realise it one day
We can go to...

"Rai, Poppy isn't feeling good, he just threw up and he has a fever" Leek said sitting on my bed. "Did you call mom?" I asked continuing my morning routine. I really didn't feel like going to school today so if Poppy was sick, I could stay home being that my mother somehow decided she was going to see her man today, a shocker to be honest.
"She didn't answer, I know she said she was seeing pops today but she left mad early"
"I think she had a business meeting first, I'll call her in a minute but do me a favor and get poppy's bag ready for me, put a change of clothes in there and put some soup and crackers in there. Is his iPad charged?" I asked him walking out my bathroom
"I think so, want me to pack it?"
"yes please and have Poppy come in here I'm sure he threw up every where so he needs a bath. Also take you and Liyah to school cause I'm probably not coming today" I said throwing my hair up in a messy bun
"He did but I started cleaning it up but he fell asleep. I'll get him though and then me and Liyah out" he replied standing up
"Thanks Bear, I'll text you and let you know if I come if you care"
"You better text me piglet, I'll beat yo ass if I don't hear from you short ass girl" he said mushing my head
"bitch imma beat yo ass I'm grown!" I said laughing at him
"yeah whatever, Imma get Poppy in here and imma throw his sheets in washer, cool?"
"Thanks again my Leeky, my dawg for life" I said kissing his cheek and grabbing my phone to call my beautiful mother
"yes Rai Love, I was about to call Malik"
"He called because Poppy is sick, he said Poppy threw up and has a fever, I'm going to give him a bath. Did you see dad already?"
"No, I had a meeting about some business but bring him to me and I'll keep him. I can see Odell on Thursday."
"You sure ma? I can watch him for you & have Aaron grab my work for me"
"Fuck Odell Cornelius Beckham Jr, my kids come before him. He ain't seen me in this long, he can wait a little longer"
"Oooop okay ma, where you at?"
"I'm downtown, where I normally have my meetings, I have one more meeting it shouldn't be long then I have to go to Aces. Meet me there with Poppy and then go to school. I will call them and tell them you're running late."
