Trey: nothing we're chilling.
She nodded continuing to smile at me.
Trey: I need to talk to you actually
Chris : about what?
Trey: about what I told you about my lip when I said nothing happened
Chris : and I told you I don't believe you.
Me: well the next time you try and attack Jabari he's not going to be so kind.
Trey turned to me motioning for me to not say anything else.
Chris : I wasn't speaking to you.
I stood up walking away putting Lisa to lie on my shoulder with Ty following behind.
Ty: mummy how come she was being rude?
Rihanna : who was being rude?
I jumped as Rihanna creeped up behind us.
Me: nobody, just leave it.
Rihanna : who was it Ty?
He pointed over to where Christina was.
Rihanna : whys she being rude? I knew there was something I didn't like about her.
Me: it's nothing.
Rihanna : imma just make sure it's nothing.
I rolled my eyes walking away as Rihanna walked over to trey.
TREYS POV:
I stood up as Malassia walked away.
Me: you have no reason to indirect her you know
Chris : I wasn't.
Me: I told you that's my friend don't disrespect her if she ain't done anything to you.
Chris : you're funny trey. I'm supposed to be your fiancé yet you're on her side
Me: she didn't do anything to you.
Chris : you brought the situation up.
Me: because she told me what you did.
She grinned at me guilty but I wasn't joking.
Me: did you hear when Dwayne said not to bring any drama here?
She rolled her eyes as Rihanna walked up to us screwing.
Rihanna : so who was being rude to malassia?
Me: it's sorted now.
Chris : why? What's she saying?
Me: I said it's sorted now.
Rihanna : I hope so
Chris : who exactly are you?
Rihanna : I'm Rihanna.
They both stood screwing each other.
Me: Rihanna why you coming over here tryna cause trouble?
Rihanna : you know exactly what Tia did to malassia. I ain't letting this bitch do the same.
I stayed silent remembering malassia having a miscarriage.
Chris : who are you calling a bitch?
Me : that's not gonna happen this time.
Rihanna : I'm just tryna make sure of that.
Me: I got it don't worry.
She screwed Chris one last time then walked away.
Chris : what did Tia do.
Me: nothing. Just know it ain't gonna happen again.
Chris : why do you think it's okay to hide things from me.
Me: it's not for me to tell, it's between Malassia and Tia I wasn't there.
Chris : if you wasn't there how do you know it even happened.
Me: it's not something that can be lied about. Just forget it. Don't create any more drama.
Chris : no I wanna know what happened to your lip.
Me: when I woke up it was swollen okay
Chris : are you really gonna lie to my face like that.
Me: just let it go. Can we just enjoy our holiday?
She looked down looking all sad.
Me: let's just go back to the pool.
Chris : you have to carry me.
I rolled my eyes bending down so she could jump on my back.

MALASSIAS POV:
Me and Jabari sat on the balcony bench relaxing together with some alcohol. The children were finally asleep, there was a warm breeze so we decided to spend some time together outside.
Jabari : what are you thinking about?
Me: nothing... I like this.
Jabari : me too. I wanna take my brother and sister on holiday one day.
I looked at him as he stared at the sky.
Me: you should.
Jabari : it's just a thought.
Me: how old are they now?
Jabari : 18
Me: that's a good age baby.
Jabari : I know but they always ask about my dad and I can't deal.
Me: do they not see him?
Jabari: when I was there they said he ain't gone to see them in years.
He finally looked at me in deep thought.
Me: what about their mum?
Jabari : I don't know. I've never seen her.
Me: thats crazy.
Jabari : I know. And I can see my brother going down the wrong path but I can't do nothing about it. I know it's hard for them cause I grew up with no parents too. This whole time I thought my dad was there with my aunty looking after them. But he ain't nowhere to be found.
Me: there's always something you can do.
Jabari : there's nothing that I can do.
Me: have you spoke to Junior about this?
Jabari : he wants us to go and get them and bring them here to live but I don't know. They're 18 they're gonna wanna do their own thing. I don't wanna take them away from their life you understand?
Me: I get you but if your brother is going down the wrong path you gotta get him on the right one before its too late.
He carried on staring at me. He doesn't speak much of his family so when he does I know it's been on his mind for a while.
Me: think about it.
Jabari : I gotta call my aunty and see what she's says about it first.
Me: good. Don't let it stress you.
I lifted one of my legs over his sitting on his lap facing him.
Jabari : when are we getting married?
Me: when everything's sorted.
Jabari : everything like what?
Me: like your little brother and sister I don't want you to be stressing over anything. It needs to be sorted so our minds can be free.
Jabari : right. So you don't mind waiting a while?
I shook my head smiling at him since he looked like he was still stressing.
I looked over the balcony since I could hear Chris and Trey running from the pool screaming.
I looked back at Jabari who was now biting his jaw.
Jabari : why are they here?
Me: just ignore them please.
Jabari : it's kinda hard when she's coming up to me accusing me of hitting her boy.
I ignored him laying on his chest as he held onto my bottom cheeks.
Trey and Chris seemed to of stopped in the front yard since I could still hear her giggling loudly but I know they didn't know we was there because they couldn't see onto our balcony.
**
Me: let's just go back inside
Jabari : why the fuck do they have to spoil our peace.
I don't know what they was doing down there all I know is I could hear trey groaning telling Chris to keep doing whatever she was doing. I didn't even want to look. He gradually got louder as we stood up to leave then I heard something that made me freeze.
Trey : malassia...
Jabaris head shot up as he looked at me.
Chris : what?
Trey : shit... nothing
Chris : no what the fuck did you just say?
Trey: baby please, let it go.
Jabari : did he just say your name?
He stared at me in disbelief I'm just as shocked as he is.
Before I even realised Jabari stood leaning over the barrier.
Jabari : do you wanna repeat what you just said?
Chris : is this a joke?
I couldn't see trey or Chris but I was trying my hardest to get Jabari back into the room.
Jabari : why have you all of a sudden gone quiet. What the fuck did you just say?
Trey: I don't want to deal with your drama. I didn't say anything.
Jabari : I heard you say my womans name. Don't fuck about.
Me: Jabari can we please go back into the room.
Trey : it was a accident. Calm yourself.
Chris : why is she even on your mind?
Jabari : that's what I wanna know too.
I stood in front of him holding his face so he was looking directly at me.
Me: can we go inside... Now.
He reluctantly turned around leading the way.
Jabari : you heard that didn't you?
Me: it doesn't matter.
Jabari : do you think that's okay? His girls giving him head and he's calling out my womans name? You think that's okay malassia?
Me: that's his problem not ours.
Jabari : no that's crossing the line
