Can't Have It All

Flashback: My Space

Kenya POV-

"Guess what today is?" I smiled brightly.

"You cutting me a check so I don't have to teach these bad ass kids anymore?" Brandon said over facetime grading papers.

"Daddy me want some icecream." I heard Justin in the background.

"Is that my Jus Jus." I said excited.

"Auntie K!" Justin said excited, grabbing B's phone.

"Did I tell you to touch my phone?" B asked him.

"No."

"Then why did you do it?"

"Because me want to talk to Auntie K."

"Brandon stop giving my baby a hard time. I miss you sweetheart."

"Me miss you too. This much." He held his arms wide open.

"And I miss you this much." I did the same.

"Me and Daddy saw Uncle O."

"I know he told me. He played the New Orleans Saints and y'all went."

"Uh-huh. And me walk on the field. And he gave me a ball after they won."

"I know he told me."

"Why you no come Auntie K?" Jus said confused.

"Auntie K is far away in Oxford."

"Where dat is?"

"England. Way across the ocean."

"The big ocean."

"Mm-hm."

"Why you...why you ova der?"

"School."

"You no wanna go to school here?"

"I did go to school there but this was a big chance and Auntie K had to take it."

"Me go across the ocean?"

"Of course. Anytime baby. You and daddy plan to go and you can come."

"Yay me go across the big ocean." He clapped excited.

"Who you talking to?" I heard Jussie's voice in the background.

"The man Im leaving you for." Brandon said.

"Hey K." I heard Jussie say.

"How you know its her?"

"Nobody else actually enjoys talking to you." I heard Jussie eating something.

"Excuse you?" Brandon said. "I will poison that food you're eating."

"No you wont you love me too much." I saw Jussie kiss his forehead and pick up Justin.

"Baba can I have some ice-cream?" Jus asked Jussie.

Baba in some languages means dad. Thats what Justin calls Jussie.

"You sure can."

"And while you're at it, get the divorce papers ready." Brandon yelled.

I laughed. "Why do you always treat Jussie so mean. One day he's really going to divorce your ass."

"I wish he would. That medical career will be over before it starts. I will roll in that court room in a wheel chair, crutches and neck brace. Turn on my fake tears. Like your honor, he treated  me like Dre, treated Michele."
