"Babe you got a lighter?"I asked Josh as I walked into our room holding Heaven's birthday cake.

"You don't need one, shit you already hot."he said and I shook my head.

"Not that one?"he asked me referring to the joke and I shook my head no.

"Okay come on where's the lighter? Are you coming with me to wake her up!?"I asked him.

"Yeah and here."he said while handing me a lighter.

"Thanks bubba."I said while walking out of the room with him following behind me.

"Damn baby..."he said as we headed upstairs.

"What?"

"I can't believe after thirty eight years you still this fucking fine."he said and I chuckled.

"Baby I'm not thirty eight years old, I'm eighteen."I said.

"Mhm well it damn sure looks good on you."

I knocked on Heaven's room door while Josh wrapped his arms around me.

"Come in!!!"

"Happy birthday to you... happy birthday to you... happy birthday dear Sugar... happy birthday to you!!!"I sang loudly as we walked into her room.

"Oh my gossssh thank y'all so much!!"she said while laughing and recording us.

"Happy seventeenth beautiful, I love you."I smiled while hugging her.

"Thank you so much mama, I love you more."she said while hugging me back.

"Happy g-day, I love you kid."Josh said while hugging her.

"Thank yooooouuu!! So where are my gifts?"she asked us and we laughed.

"Come downstairs and see, is your sister still asleep?"I said while going next door and opening Sarai's room door.

She was still knocked out so I closed the door before we headed downstairs.

When we got downstairs, the chef was in the kitchen whipping up some breakfast.

"So Heaven this is Janette, the lovely lady who's going to be blessing you with two delicious meals today. She'll serve you breakfast and lunch. Umm over here I set up a little Photo Booth where you'd take some pictures since that's what you love doing. Makeup, nails, and friend's will be here around twelve while at one we're going to the mall. After that you'll come back here and pregame with your girls until later on tonight."I explained to her.

"Are you serious!!? Mama I really appreciate this."she said and I rolled my eyes while smiling.

Girl your spoiled ass was expecting this shit.

"Alright come outside we have something to show you."I said as I headed out of the front door with my phone in my hand.

I texted Josh letting him know that we were outside in the yard waiting on him.

"What's going on?"Heaven asked me.

I pointed to the garage door as it went up and Josh drove out with her brand new all black Infiniti Q50 that was presented with a teal ribbon on it.

She looked at me and started screaming.

I smiled while recording her.

"Is that really for me!!?"she screamed while looking at Josh as he walked over here.

"Yea, happy birthday!!"he said while handing her the keys.

"Does it come with restrictions?"she asked me and I chuckled.

"I'll let you know about all of that later."

She went to get into the car and when she sat in it she started crying.

"You like it?"I asked her.

"I love it, thank you so much."she cried while getting out and coming to hug us.

"Aight it's teeth brushing time."Josh said and we laughed.

"You trynna say my breathe stinks?"she asked him.

"That ain't exactly what I'm trynna say..."

"Yeah right."she smiled while rolling her eyes.

After taking her to test drive her car, we all went inside, ate breakfast, and got ready for the day.

"Aye nigga get yo stupid ass in the car we gotta go!!"I semi yelled at Kai as he stood outside slap boxing with his friend's.

"Hold up let me beat his ass one time!!"he yelled while looking at me.

"Malakai come on!!"Victoria yelled out of the window.

He picked up his stuff off of the ground before coming to get in the car.

Once he was in, we headed to Kodi's house.

"Nigga what you doing all the way over here?"I asked him.

"We just came from the court and got lost."

"Mhm I told you to call somebody once you was finished."

"I did. Victoria didn't answer the phone."he said and I looked over at her.

"I was trying to help you with your daughter's car!"she said before I could speak.

"Aight well next time answer the fucking phone, don't just have him out there alone like that."

"Okay I'm gonna shut up because you're high right now and off something else and I don't want to argue with you."she said.

"Yeah do that."I said while turning up the music.

In about thirty minutes, we pulled up to Kodi's place.

I made sure my driver was behind me with Heaven's car.

"Baby? You got the spare keys?"Victoria asked me as she reapplied her lipstick.

"Yeah they right here."I said as I held the box up.

"Come on y'all."I said to the boys as we all got out of the car.

We headed up to the doorstep and Sevyn rang the doorbell.

Kodi came to the door and opened it, as soon as she saw Kai and Sevyn she pulled them both into a hug.

"Ooooh my gossh I missed y'all so much!!"

"We just saw you last week oh my gosh."Kai said while smiling.

"I don't care, I still missed y'all."she said while kissing his cheek.

"Hey y'all can come in. Heaven!!!?"

"Yeah!!?"I heard her yell from around the corner.

"Someone's here to see you."

"Here I come!!"

I watched as Kodi walked down the hall and I couldn't help but to stare.

Sometimes I just wish I wouldn't have ever fucked up 'cause now another nigga living my dream.

It's cool though, he probably ain't gone last for long.

"Wassup Stink, happy birthday."I said to Heaven as she walked up to me and hugged me.

"Thank yoooou!!"

"Happy birthday Heaven."Victoria said to her as she slightly smiled at her while taking the gift bag filled with five thousand dollars.

"Thank you."

"Come outside, I wanna show you something."I said and we headed outside.

Halfway Heaven stopped outside and started crying.

"Awww."Kodi came outside and said while recording.

I held onto Heaven and pulled her up from the floor.

"This is my second car in one day, I can't believe this!! Thank you so much dad."she said while hugging me.

"Of course."I said while rubbing the back of her head and hugging her back.

"You gone go check it out?"

"Yes."she said and she went to check the car out.

"Mommy is that— daddy!!!!"I heard and I looked up seeing Sarai running my way.

When she finally reached me I picked her up.

"What's up Princess!?"

"Nothing, I was getting my makeup done."she said and I nodded.

"It looks perfect baby."

"Daddy can you buy me a new pink trampoline?"

"I can buy you anything you want."

"Okay well that's what I want."

"Aight I got you."I said before putting her down.

"Dad!!!"I heard Heaven yell and I walked towards her.

"Yeah!?"

"Get in, we're going for a test drive."

"Aight let's go. Who's driving me or you!?"

"Me!!"she semi yelled and I laughed along with Kodi.

"Come on, you riding with us?"I asked her and she shook her head no.

After test driving the car with Heaven, Victoria, the boys, and I headed back home to get ready for later on.
