*DAVE'S POV*
"What did you do to end up in jail, Nigga?"

"I confronted Queen about cheating on me and sleeping with other niggas. After thirty minutes of questioning her about the same shit, she finally came out to me and told me she's been seeing some dude named Chris Sails. Then, I fucked up.."

"What did you do, Clarence?"

"I ended up losing control and my anger took the best of me. I ended up attacking her physically, then I forced her to tell me where the nigga was staying at. Me and him got into it, and I ended up stabbing him."

Is this nigga for real right now?! He's about to get charged for not only domestic violence, but attempted murder too!

"Clarence! My nigga, you went way too far with this one!"

"I'm probably gonna be stuck here for a hot ass minute, bro. I don't even have a bond right now."

"You probably ain't gonna get a bond, Clare! When you go on trial if they take it there, they Finna charge you for domestic violence AND attempted murder! I really can't believe you —"

"Dave, I gotta go. My time with the phone is up."

The phone then hung up. I really can't believe Clarence took it THIS far.

This nigga is a different type of crazy...

"You good, Dave? By everything you just said, it seems like Clarence may be in a LOT of trouble."

Alexis spoke up, looking at me seriously as she was sitting on the couch. I sighed, taking a seat next to her.

"Nah, I don't think he's Finna be okay. This nigga lost control, he beat his girlfriend up, then found the nigga she was cheating on him with and stabbed him."

"Oh my god, that's terrible. Who's his girlfriend?"

"She actually works with you. She's a stripper named Queen."

"Oh, yeah. She be all over the dudes in the club. Especially our boss Draco. I'm starting to think she slept with him too on the low."

"That might be the other dude my guys seen her with."

"Most likely. Hopefully she'll be okay."

"Hopefully. Now he's most likely Finna be charged with attempted murder and domestic violence."

"Mommyyyyy! Can I come out now? I've been in my room for a while."

We heard Aniyah shout out from her room. Alexis and I both started laughing as she looked over at Aniyah.

"I'm sorry, baby! Mommy forgot you was even in there. I have to get you ready to go over daddy's house soon. Mommy has to go back to work tonight."

"Ughhhh. I don't wanna go to daddy's house!"

Aniyah groaned, sitting on Alexis' lap.

"I'm sorry, but you have to."

"I can actually watch her overnight for you. I'll have Kairi and Kobi over there with me. She'll be entertained with them."

"Are you sure..? I don't want you to feel like you have to watch her."

"Yeah, it's really no problem with me. I WANT to watch her for you."

"Aniyah, do you wanna go with daddy or Dave tonight?"

"Hmmm... I wanna go with Dave and Kairi! Dave is more fun than daddy is."

Aniyah giggled, causing me to laugh.

Damn. Her father probably really is a bum if she rather stay with me than her own father.

"Alrighty. You can just take one of her bag's with you to your house. I'll most likely be over your house at some point tomorrow to grab her. Thank you so much, Dave. We really appreciate you."

"No problem, ma. Anything for you two."

"Aniyah, you better behave for Dave. Mommy will be over there tomorrow to come and get you."

"I promise I'll be good for Dave, mommy. I love you."

"I love you more, baby. I'll see you tomorrow, Dave. Take care of my baby, or I'll be the next one in jail for attempted murder."

Alexis joked around, handing me one of Aniyah's bags and pulling me closer to her. I chuckled and nodded, holding Alexis by her waist.

"Will do, ma. May I have my kiss now?"

"Hmmm..."

"You was boutta kiss me before Clarence's dumbass called me."

"That was before Aniyah came into the room. If you take care of my baby, then I'll give you all the kisses you want."

Alexis smirked, teasingly pushing me away, guiding both me and Aniyah out the door before closing it.

"You really don't wanna stay with your dad, kiddo?"

"No. He's no fun. He also doesn't even remember I'm there a lot of the time. He always pays more attention to his girlfriends instead."

Aniyah said sadly as I drove off from Alexis' house.

Shit like that really breaks my heart, man. Niggas really out here putting pussy before their kids and shit.

"That really sucks, kiddo. I'm sorry about that. But with me, we can have all the fun you want."

"Can I ask you something, Dave?"

"What's up, Niyah?"

"Do you like my mom?"

"Of course I do. She's a really cool girl."

"Noooo, I mean like... like, like her. Like my daddy used to like her."

Kids know too much nowadays, I swear. It's funny, but adorable.

"If I tell you, can you keep a secret?"

"I promise! My lips are sealed."

"I do like your mommy, a lot."

"I think she likes you too! Maybe one day, you guys can get married, then I can be Kairi and Kobi's other sister!"

"That doesn't sound too bad of an idea, kiddo. Not at all."
