Mikaela

"I'm in love wit da coco! Coco! Coco!"

I sang and nodded my head as I did my little foot stretch on my yoga mat.

"Ehemmm!" I heard someone clear their throat, only to turn and see August eyeing me with this amused look on his face.

"What da hell u doin?" He asked with a hint of laughter in his voice

"Uh just some yoga. Can't do much exercise with these two inside of me, but yoga does the trick" I explained to him

"And you listenin' to OT Genasis helps ya relax?" He snickered

I shrugged my shoulders and smiled, " it's a catchy song"

He shook his head and laughed a little.

"So I was thinkin' we could go on that shopping trip I promised ya bout 11?" He said looking at his watch

"Oh yeah, that's fine with me. I'll just take a shower then get ready" I told him adjusting myself to stand up.

"Aight. So that means bout an hour," he said walking over to me to give me a hand in standing.

I chuckled since he was right.

I got to my feet and was about to leave but I stopped, remembering I had something to talk to August about.

"Oh August," I began. He turned around giving me his attention.

"I know we haven't discussed me going home to Miami as yet."

"Well you still can't fly ma, didn't really think ta bring it up" he said

"Yeah I know. The thing is when I do get the okay from Dr Young, I won't really have a place to stay" I continued

He frowned a little.

"I gave up my apartment. I wouldn't feel safe after what happened there and not too mention, its too small for me plus the girls"

He smiled softly, " I'm glad ya did. I was thinkin da same thing to tell ya da truth...and you ain't even gotta ask to stay hea' til you find somewhere new..."

I smiled feeling a little relieved. I mean I didn't expect him to say no, but I also didn't want to impose on him

"...I wish you'd just move hea' to Atlanta. Make shit easier" he chuckled

"My business is back in Miami though," I said a little guilty.

He put up his palms, " Nah ma, I'm just playin. I know"

I nodded at him and turned to go up to my room.

After the twins came I knew it wouldn't be the same with me in Miami and August here in Atlanta. I seen how much he loved his nieces, being away from his daughters wouldn't be any easier...

I sighed. Don't worry yourself Mikaela. I thought as I turned on the shower knob....

August

"So anything particular we shopping for today?" Mikaela asked me from da passenger seat of ma range

I smiled, " you kno all to well we goin shoppin' fa Brie and Addy"

I saw her smilin' in da corner of ma eye.

"Good! I saw this cuteee crib set on The Baby Shoppe website, and checked and saw they're in stock at the store too" she said gettin all excited

I laughed a little, "there ain't anything you don't ever plan fo' "

She paused and thought fa a minute.
