"Man you stay on some shit." Placing down my cards.

"OG whatcha been up too?" Kenny said passing the blunt to me.

"Holidays is this week. Jada got me running around for her doing extra shit."

"My man is a house-husband now ." I laughed.

"Man. If a nigga tries me he'll still get dealt with."

"Yeah yeah"

"Alright believe what you want. Imma head out. Y'all come past the crib tomorrow Jada is cooking." OG said standing up grabbing his phone.

"Oh we'll there."

Jada POV
Next Day

"Mom why are we cooking all this food?" Faith whined.

"Your father invited the whole neighborhood over so I need to make sure I have enough food."

"What's new" she rolled her eyes.

"Stop complaining and go to the store and get me some more milk please. Get the money from your father. He's in the yard setting up tables."

She stopped stirring the mac n cheese leaving the kitchen.

Seeing it was ready for the oven. I slide it in there.

My family of 4 has been expanded over the years to almost half of the hood. They have become family to us so we treat them as such. Those who want to come over are more than welcome to and get a plate of food, talk and party.

Everything is almost done but I'm just waiting on the milk so I can finish this cornbread.

A few minutes I heard a knock on the door.

"Why the hell is Faith knocking instead of using her key!" I sat for a few more minutes hoping she'll just get her key out and use it.

When the knocking continued I finally got up and snatched the door open.

"Faith really- Nia??"

"Hi mommy. I missed you." she said dropping her things pulling me into a hug.

"Hey sweetie let's get your things inside." I said grabbing the suitcase and she grabbed the bag walking into the living room.

"Did your father tell you I was cooking today and invited you over?" I said with confusion in my voice.

"No mom I need a favor."

We don't see Nia much. We really don't talk to Nia that much ever since she got married. Tristan ass and his family are stuck up and we don't fuck with that at all. So we just wait around to she comes to us. Which is never she's always busy. Which is why I'm confused why she's here asking for a favor.

"What's going on? Do I need to go get daddy?"

"NO! I just need to stay here for a lil while."

"Why? Don't you live in a mansion?"

"Yes mom but me and Tristan got into it and we just need some space right now. I have some people running my office for a while and I came here."

"Fine. Go put your things up in your room and get washed up. A lot of people are coming over in a while."

"Ok thanks" she kissed my cheek before grabbing her things and heading to her old room.
