It's been two months since I gave birth to my beautiful baby boy and girl.

They've been growing and getting active.

Delilah she has Von's lips, his nose, his ears, and my eyes.

So she mostly looks like her dad.

Dylan on the other hand has Von's lips, my nose, Von's ears, and his eyes.

He basically looks like a mixture of the both of us.

They both know how to recognize our faces, pick their heads up on tummy time, coo, and some other things.

Delilah is very active and very much a hot head.

Dylan he be chilling.

All he wants to do is be fed and treated like a baby while his sister wants to be grown.

I can already tell she's going to be a handful just like her mama but so what.

Everybody's in love with them too.

My parent's and Kai just be all over them.

Shit I do too though.

Mama's been working on snapping back and it's coming together.

If I can't get out of the house, when the twins are asleep, I try to do some working out.

When I have time to get away from the twins I go to the gym.

As far as doing hair, I've decided to take a break and devote my time to my babies.

I do have someone who's really really good to fill in for me and I've also hired another beautician besides her.

Everybody knows that I just had twins and that I'm taking a break so they either got gone, are still coming to my shop, or are getting their hair done elsewhere.

This break will only last until probably six months so it's not long.

Besides Von doesn't want me working or anything since he has a lot of money coming in right now.

When he's out handling business, I usually invite someone over to help me if they're available.

Mainly Blue because he's not only a close friend but also my assistant now.

I don't mind being a stay at home mom for a little while though, hopefully it teaches my ass something.

"Who is that doing all of that talking?"I walked out of the bathroom and said.

"Girl that's pumpkin she over trynna look at me."my mama said while playing in Deli's hair.

She smiled at me, "You look cute."

"Thank you mommy."

"Oh yes baby you snapped back really quick. That body is giving everything."

I laughed, "Y'all hear that? Your nana said y'all finna have another brother or sister on the way."

"Mmcht now I ain't say all of that."

"Alright y'all ready?"my dad said as he walked into the house.

"Waaaait let me say bye to my babies."I said while walking over to the couch.

Delilah was on one side of my mama on her back while Dylan was on the other side on his back.

I picked Dylan up and kissed his cheeks, "Mmwah! You ready to go with your nana and papa?"

He started making little noises and I smiled while holding his head and looking at him.

"What was that!? Was that a yeah, was that a yeah mama's handsome boy?"I baby talked.

He smiled as he began to coo.

"Aight give me my grandson he ready to go watch Life with his papa and eat some popcorn."my dad said while standing next to me.

I kissed Dylan again, "Mama loves you baby, be good."

I handed him to my dad before catering to Delilah.

She was doing a whole lot.

Kicking her feet and moving that little tongue of hers.

Once she was out of my arms she had got mad so I had to calm her down.

When she was done throwing her little fit, we got them buckled into their car seats.

My parent's got them loaded into their car before they left leaving me alone to wait on Von.

Tonight he's taking me out somewhere, I'm not sure where but I think we're gonna have a good time.

Right now we got the world thinking we're beefing and are mot together but not, we're still locked in.

They just don't know.

I honestly didn't wanna leave my babies but they've been with me for nine whole months.

Mama needs a break.

I followed Shay outside to my car.

"Why the hell you walking like that?"I asked her.

She looked back at me, "Like what?"

"Like yo ass on the runway or some."

"I'm upgrading, I'm a mother now. A bad ass mother, real bad one."she said and I shook my head.

"Baeee what is thi— oh my gosh Von i wish you would chill on these surprises."she said while recording the big ass bouquet of roses sitting in the passenger seat.

"This is just the beginning."

She turned around and kissed my lips a couple of times.

"Where am I gonna sit?"

"In the backseat."I said and she scrunched her face up.

"Nigga I'll throw these damn flowers down that damn sewage, don't play with me."

I chuckled, "Ungrateful ass."

"Let me hit that."she said while pointing at my blunt.

I handed it to her before taking the flowers out of the front seat and putting them in the back.

She handed me my blunt back before getting in the car.

I closed her door and went around to my side.

Once I was in the car, I started it up and pulled off.

———————

"Poppaaaa."Shay said and I looked over seeing her recording me.

I threw up bd before showing off my ice.

"Bae tell me why everybody be saying this yo twin."she said while pulling up some dyke.

I scrunched my face up, "Who is that?"

"Oh her name Jazz, she's a YouTuber."she said and I mugged her.

"Ain't my mfn twin."

"Well she looks like you a lil bit."

"You want her or some?"

"Mmcht no."

"Oh Aight."

She grabbed my jaw and kissed my cheek, "You mad Poppa?"

I continued texting the group chat.

"Baby don't be like that."she kissed my lips.

"Poppa...bae...bae."she called out before taking my phone out of my hand.

I looked down at her and kissed her lips.

"I'm chilling baby. You checked on the twins?"

"Yes they're good. Did you have a good day today?"

"It was cool. How was your day?"

"Boring and fun at the same time."

I watched as the waitress sat our food in front of us, "What you do?"

"Oooh this looks good as hell. I exercised this morning before the twins got up, after getting them situated I made a couple of wigs, did some shopping online, played around with the twins for a while before I fed them and put them up for a nap."

"Yo day seemed pretty chill."

"Yeah it was."

"Man you got that shit on tonight."I said while looking at her.

"I do?"

I wrapped my arm around her waist and kissed her cheek.

"Hell yeah to be honest I ain't think yo ass was gone snap back that quick after to babies. You look good mama."

She smiled while looking at me, "Thank you baby."

I kissed her lips before I dug into my food and began eating.

"Oooh this shit good."she started dancing and I chuckled.

"Yo ass love to eat."I shook my head.

"I do, you know I do. Here try this."she put a piece of shrimp up to my mouth.

I ate the shrimp and nodded my head.

"That's good. You remember the money you gifted me with on Christmas?"I asked her as ate one of my French fries.

"Mhmm."she hummed.

"I'm thinking about investing it into a strip club."

"Really!?"she widened her eyes.

"Yeah, our strip club."

Her face scrunched up, "What you mean our?"

"Me and you."

"I can't manage a club and a beauty salon."

I kissed her cheek, "Nah we gone hire people for all of that. It's just like we gone be making money in our sleep."

"You gone be hiring people for all of that not me, you."

"Damn so you ain't trynna be business partners with yo man?"

"Babe that's kind of hard. It's too many laws and shit that are set in place for owning a club, shit even a strip club."

"So bad idea?"

"Yeah I'm fucking with it, sorry Poppa."

"Nah I appreciate the honesty."

We continued eating before she ordered some fried bananas and gelato.

After eating that, we left and I drove to the club.

———————

"Ayyeee!!!"I screamed as two strippers danced on me and I threw money up in the air.

Von was standing there looking around the club while talking to his friend.

He was alert but I was drunk as hell and having fun.

It was hot but me and these bitches were turning up.

I watched as one of the strippers turned around and started grinding on my lap.

"Ooh shit."

She grabbed me by my neck and I threw my head back.

The moment she tried to kiss me I immediately made her get off of me.

I'm not with that shit or on that shit.

I got up and went over to Von.

"You good?"I asked him as I leaned up against him and placed my hand on his cheek.

"Yeah I'm straight."he said before grabbing my throat and kissing along my neck and jaw.

I laughed before turning around towards him and kissing his lips.

He pecked my cheek and looked at me.

"You good mama?"

"Of course."

"Mhm I love you."

"I love you more Poppa. Did they make the drop yet?"

"Nah not yet but I'm getting impatient, here go to the car."he said while handing me the keys along with his gun.

I immediately came to my senses.

"Ba—Von what the fuck is this!? I don't need this!!"I looked down at my hands.

"You straight just go to the car."

"So you want me to just walk to the car with this bitch in my hand? Somebody might call the police Von."

"You good just go. If somebody fucks with you then you already know what to do."he said in my ear as he pulled me closer to him by my shirt.

"Von you do know that people have and will post this on Facebook and shit. We're not too far from well known."

"I don't care, go!"

"Mmcht if something happens it's g—"

"Ain't none gone happen baby trust."he said and I mugged him before I walked off.

I went to the car and got it started.

Shots started letting off and I hit the locks on the car and ducked low.

There were people running out of the club and I stayed down until the passenger door opened.

"Get up, come on we gotta!"Von yelled as he got into the car and sat a big ass duffle bag on his lap.

I immediately climbed into the seat and started the car.

Once I had the car started, I pulled off.

Someone had shot at the car causing me to duck but get up outta there as quickly as I could.

I yelled as I sped onto the freeway a couple blocks away, "Von what the fuck was that!!?"

"That was business baby."he said while taking his jacket off.

"Business my ass I will not be doing that shit again!"

"That wasn't none, I've seen worse and have been in worse situations."

"Well I don't wanna be in those types of situations. Durk already told you to get out the streets 'cause you touching thirty. Even worse, your ass already thirty."

"Fuck Durk and aye this how I make a living. I'm too into this shit, it's too late to get out. So either yo ass gone stick around or get left, 'cause this street shit is in my blood."

"Mhm well I just might get left because I ain't finna be doing this with you. Fuck you think I am? This ain't mob wives."

He chuckled, "Baby that was a one time thing. I promise it won't happen again."

"You better hope so. Got mfs thinking I'm a ride or die bitch. I ain't finna be getting shot for you. We got kids to live for now Von."

"Aight be cool man."

"Where are we going? This ain't Uber or Lyft either."I rolled my eyes.

He laughed, "To my house mama."

I drove to his house which was on the other side of town.

———————

"What the fuck is all of that light? You ain't leave nothing running did you?"I asked Von as I stopped halfway down the hallway.

"Nah man keep walking."he pushed me in my lower back.

"What's with these fucking candles? Is this some fucking ritual or something?"I asked him and he laughed.

"Baby keep walking."

"Von you always surpris—"I began to say before gasping.

"See shut yo ass up sometimes."

I stared at the big bright words that said "Will You Marry Me?"

"Are you for real right now?"I turned around and asked him.

He was already on one knee holding up the ring in the box.

Tears instantly started falling from my eyes.

"Shit I mean we ain't always had the best of times or been on the best terms but I feel like what's the point in waiting. We too grown for that shit. All couples go through hard times and I think that we ours ain't up yet. With that being said will you do the honor in being my wife, and not only being my wife but working through hard times with me so that we can get through them together, as a whole?"

"Tha— that's so sweet baby, yes I'll marry you baby."

He placed the ring on my finger and I grabbed his face and kissed him.

"Mmm I love you so much baby."I said while repeatedly kissing his lips.

He stood up and we hugged each other for a long time.

We went to his bedroom where there was rose petals everywhere as well as candles.

There was also hundred dollar bills all over the bed along with some red fur handcuffs.

The money basically represented the first time we had ever had sex when he got out of jail.

It was money all over the bed from our little argument then we made magic happen on top of it.

Tonight we did the same and everything was better than before.

We made love.

We didn't have sex or fuck.

We made love, good love.
