Sitting out on the porch with Nate and rob we sat and smoked talking about nothing in particular.

"No fucking way man". Nate said staring at the phone in disbelief.

"If you ain't gone share the news shut the hell up". Rob said causing Nate to mug him.

"You shut up bitch". Nate said causing me to laugh as they went back and forth.

"Y'all chill out". I said and they stopped talking but still glared at each other.

"Anyways nigga why didn't you tell us you was about to be a daddy again". Nate said causing me to choke on the smoke I pulled from the blunt.

"Fuck is you taking about".I ask looking over t him with a mug on my face.

"Nigga my cousin posted a video of Jennifer gender reveal". He said passing his phone over to me and I watched it as blue balloons come out the box and blue smoke went everywhere and everybody ran to her screaming.

"I didn't even know my cousin knew her". He said and I handed him his phone back.

"Where yo cousin stay". I ask standing up.

"She stay in Iowa and work at this pet clinic". He said and I nodded.

"Aye man where you going". Rob asked as I walked off the porch.

"To find her and ask why the fuck she ran away with my seed". I said walking over to my car and getting in.

Waking up my phone was blowing up with notifications from Instagram. Clicking on the app I see a whole bunch of people from back home telling me congratulations and sharing a video of my gender reveal.

Closing out of the app I dial bishops number and wait for him to answer.

"It wasn't me bitch I swear". He said as soon as he answered the phone.

" I know cause you were right beside me so who was it". I ask rubbing my stomach as the baby begins to kick.

" it was Mariah that's where the original video came from". He said and I shook my head laying back down.

"you know it's my week off but when I come back to work she gone hear my mouth". I said rolling my eyes because I know if people back home seen it then ace definitely seen it.

"ill beat that hoe up for you". He said causing me to laugh.

"No you know I don't like fighting I just want to address the situation and handle it like a grown woman". I said as I cut on the tv to find something to watch.

"You better than me because I made the announcement at the reveal that you didn't want it on any social media and only trixie was to record the moment for you on your phone". He said and he was right about him making the announcement so I know she heard him if everybody else did.

"Still I'm not going to fight her but I do want her to take it down". I said finally deciding on a show to watch.

"I'll handle it the video will be down in thirty minutes". He said before hanging up the phone.

Tossing my phone to the side I focus on the show.

Finishing up with packing my bags I get ready to walk out when China, Jaime, and miracle walk through the door.

"I go with you daddy". She asks looking at my bags and I shake my head no and she pouts looking down.

"God dammit go get your bag we always keep packed". I said and she ran off to the back leaving me standing in front of two mad women.

"So where you going". Jaime asks with her arms folded.

"Business get you some and stay the hell out of mines". I said and she smacked her lips.

"What business do you have". China asked glaring at me.

"Not yours, LETS GO MIRACLE". I said and she was walking down just as I started yelling.

"I'm here daddy". She said and I grab her hand walking out.

Helping her in the backseat I put our things in the trunk.

"Take us to the airport. I tell the driver before sitting back.

Hopefully things go as planned...
