Elijah POV

A month later...

Today we were having a birthday party for zahrie. She's getting older. Made me a little emotional because she's my princess. Jaelynn was running around just getting things together. I had zahrie in the backyard just doing what she does. Getting dirty.

"Elijah! Why she in the mud?!" Jaelynn yelled.

"Huh?. Oh she likes the mud. Let her be" I said. She continued to go into the mud and laugh. Who cares she gets dirty. That's why she gets baths.

"Elijah you're not helping me at all today. Cause now I have to give her a bath amongst other things I have to do" Jaelynn said.

"Why have you been so moody?. Is your friend here?" I asked. She flipped me off and went back inside . Shaking my head cause she's been like this for a couple of weeks.

Picking up zahrie and taking her inside. I figured why not try and help Jaelynn. So I ran her a bath and cleaned her up. Once we were done I picked her up in a towel and took her to her room. Jaelynn laid out her attire for what she'll be wearing. I picked up the dress and showed zahrie "you like this?". She shook her head. "Well you have to put it on".

"No!" She said.

Sighing "zahrie please put this on before mommy comes up here".

"No!" She stomped her foot.

"If you put this on I'll give you a piece of chocolate later, okay?" Trying my best to bribe her. She nodded and smiled "good girl". After dressing her and brushing her hair I walked her downstairs. Jaelynn seemed surprised I got her dressed.

"You dressed her without any problems?" She asked.

"Well not necessarily... she gave me an issue but we worked it out" I smiled.

"Uh Huh! You better have not promised her something in order for her to get dressed. Cause she'll never learn" Jaelynn said.

"Nah I didn't promise her anything" I lied. She eyed me and looked at zahrie who looked so pretty.

The party was going on. And all the kids were enjoying themselves. I stood by the table with the favors on it. Just looking around and making sure zahrie was having fun.

Renzo came up to me "yo I'm going to warn you but Jaelynn looks like she's about to flip out".

"Why?" I asked.

He shrugged "I honestly don't know. But I would say you go talk to her but she might flip out even more".

"Nah I'll go talk to her" making my way to the kitchen to see her eating a plate of nachos. Where the hell did she get nachos from?.

"Why are you in here stuffing your face?" I asked trying to sneak a nacho but she mean mugged me.

"Because I was craving nachos. Is that okay with you?" She asked.

"You can always eat that out there. No need to do this in the kitchen away from the party" I said.

"Elijah leave me alone okay... I'm almost done. Then I'll feed the kids and then it'll be cake time". She sucked on her fingers like these nachos was her last meal.

If I didn't know any better...

"What?!" She said.

"Nothing, I can't look at you?" I asked.

"Not right now. Let me eat in peace" she said. I shook my head and went back to where the party was. I don't know what was up with her today but I'll let her be. Or I won't here the end of it.

She came out the kitchen still licking her fingers. "Okay kids, it's time to eat. You can pick between pizza or chicken nuggets with fries!" She said so happy.

I was confused she was a monster just about five minutes ago. And now she's happy.

She smiled and helped the kids get a plate and assisted them in getting what they chose to eat. Renzo looked at me "Listen I can't bet anything she's pregnant again".

I laughed "I was thinking the same thing. She's crazy when she's pregnant".

"That is so true. You got nine months of her crazy ass" Renzo said.

The door bell rang and Jaelynn hurried over to answered it thinking it's maybe some kids who came late. She opened the door "oh hell no! Not at my daughter party!".

Walking over to the door I see my mum standing there with a present in hand. Jaelynn turned to me "did you invite her? And I would answer this wisely cause I'm about to smack you".

"No I didn't invite her. How the hell did she know today was zahrie's party?" I said.

"Well no invite to come inside and see my granddaughter?" My mum said.

"Oh no she didn't just say zahrie was her granddaughter. Listen I'm really not trying to whoop any senior citizen's ass today" Jaelynn said.

I held her back and stepped infront of her. "Why are you here, again?".

"What kind of grandma would I be if I missed my grand-" Jaelynn cut her off "don't even go there old lady. Don't stand here and act like you give two shits about zahrie cause you don't. Come correct before I correct you myself".

My mum cleared her throat "Can I give zahry her gift?" She said.

"Who the fuck is zahry? Can someone tell this senior citizen to step off my front step with this nonsense?!".

"Jaelynn chill out okay" I said. Turning back to my mum "Listen you need to leave before shit gets real".

"I'm not scared of her. She's all mouth" my mum said.

Jaelynn titled her head "I'm all mouth bitch. Why don't you try me? I'll chew your old ass up".

Jillian came to the door trying to handle Jaelynn. "Nah I'm good. I'm good!". Jillian just held onto Jaelynn just Incase she decided to jump.

"Mum please leave. And do not come back here. Cause I can't stop Jaelynn from doing anything to you".

My mum sighed "You're so whipped its pathetic" she threw the gift at me and walked away. Jaelynn got loose and picked the gift up and chugged it at her. Hitting her right on the head. "That's what you get you old sagging bitch". My mum flipped her off and continued walking holding her head.

Jaelynn slammed the door closed and took a deep breathe "okay so who wants cake?" Renzo, Jillian and I looked at each other and shook our heads. Her mood swings are lethal.
