"Kaiser the TV isn't running away from you. You can back up and sit down." I watched as he stood right in front of the TV.

Kids eyes and head don't be hurting when they do that shit?

"No!" He yelled before mumbling some other shit making me stand up.

He looked back at me before laughing then ran away.

"Crazy tail self.." I mumbled sitting back down as I grabbed my phone calling China AGAIN.

It's been almost a week since I've heard from her and I don't know if something's wrong or she's just ghosting me cause I didn't answer last time she called.

But she's not really like that though. She knows that if I don't answer or if I hang up, I'm busy.

"Answer the phone freennnnn. You okay? Call me. Or ima pull up yo ya house and break yo car windows." I left a voicemail before hanging up.

Then I went to facetime KJ..

"Who is this?" He squinted his eyes looking all in the camera.

"Baddest bitch." I replied blankly.

"Baddest looking bitch." He said. "What you want?" 

"You heard from China?"

"Well I know they cases from COVID dying down and shit but besides that nah." He shrugged looking off.

I blinked at him. "Nigga you know I'm not talking about that type of China.. you know where my bestfriend been?"

"Home." He said.

"How you know that?"

"Nigga.. just go to ha house and see if she there. Your car ain't broken!" He said. "When was the last time you seen her? You act like she went missing or some shit."

"Yeah, I wouldn't know if she went missing cau—"

"Cause you ain't go check up on her." He said slowly while tapping his head.

"I thought she wanted space or some shit."

"You done lost yo damn mind.. when you get yo damn mind you call me." He said before hanging up.

"Alright then." I sighed getting up. "Kaiser get ya stuff, trip to Cereal house.."

Destination: China's House

I walked up the door steps with Kaiser next to me holding my hand..

"Kaiser, just come on. You walk too slow for my liking." I said picking him up cause he was slowing us down.

"Nooooo." He whined trying to push me off. I ignored him until we reached to the door.. I placed him back down before knocking on the door.

"Who is it?" I heard China's voice.

"FBI." I replied.

It was quiet for a minute before the door slightly opened and she poked her head out looking at me, then Kai.

"Well.. hello?" I said.

"Cereal!" Kaiser smiled jumping up and down.

"You gon let us in orrrrr??" I trailed off.

She huffed opening the door all the way.

"If you don't want us here we can give you more spa— ou chile.. it is a mess in here." I looked around her trashed house. "You got robbed?"

"No." She said.

"Wait Kaiser, don't go there." I scooped him up as he was about to run towards the pile of clothes.

"What's going on? You okay?" I asked looking at her. Sis looked rough, must've been going through it.

"I'm fine." She said walking in the kitchen, which wasn't as dirty as the rest of the house.

"I've been calling you to check on you.. why you ain't answer?"

"Didn't know I was obligated to." She shrugged making me raise an eyebrow.

"Oh.. so what's going on?" I asked again. "Why the house looking like this.. you look depressed. Anything happen?"

"Just stressed." She shrugged again, keeping it short. I knew she was lying, just couldn't get my finger around what she was lying about.

"Okay well.. since youn wanna open up to me right now. Want me to help you clean?"

"Sure." She shrugged. "I wasn't even planning on cleaning anytime soon."

"How did the house get like this?" I looked around the living room for the TV remote.

"I did this." She said plainly.

"Oh.." I nodded. Not even gonna ask why.

I spotted the TV remote on the ground next to fireplace making me place Kaiser down so I could grab it.

"Cocomelon?" I asked looking at him then at the TV.

He shook his head no making me raise an eyebrow..

That was a first.

"Bob." He said.

"Bob..?" I trailed off.

"Bob." He repeated.

"Bobby Shmurda?" I scrunched my face up.

Who the hell is bob?

"Bob! Pants!" He yelled.

I thought for a minute... I feel like I'm getting yelled at by a black parent for not understanding my homework.

"Spongebob?" I asked looking down at him and he nodded with a smile.

"Boy you could've just said that.."

"China you still got that google speaker? Or whatever that is." I asked once I got Kaiser seated and put Spongebob on for him.

"Yeah." She nodded. "Hey Google!"

It made a noise from somewhere and she looked at me. "Okay.. play Euphoria by Toosi." I said.

"Say it louder."

I repeated myself but this time louder and after a few seconds it started playing loudly through the speakers..

"Okay, now I can clean.."

Na'Jour knocked on Sylvia's door 3 times before backing up a bit. It was about 3 cars in the driveway so he prepared himself to probably see her grandmother and a few more family members.

When he went back to Atlanta he ended up canceling to see his own daughter, again. He wanted the moment to be "special" since he hadn't seen her in a long time so he just planned a whole different day to see her.

Which was stupid to Sylvia because "if you really wanted to see your daughter like you claimed, you would've just came that same night.. just to see her face even would've made her happy."

The door flew open revealing Sylvia's grandmother.

"Na'Jour?" She squinted her eyes. "Sylvia grab my glasses!"

"Ma who is it!?" Sylvia yelled back.

"Grab my glasses so I can indentify the person Sylvia!"

"That's doing too much ma.." Sylvia walked up with Ezariah running behind her.

Ezariah gasped with a smile before running up to Na'Jour, hugging his legs as tight as she could.

"I missed you!" She said making Na'Jour smile, it wasn't the reaction he was expecting but he wasn't mad about this one.

He picked her up getting a good look at her face before kissing her cheek.

"Ima go get her shoes." Sylvia said before turning around.

"Come inside.." Sylvia's grandmother moved aside.

"Nah I'm good.. we boutta go anyway." He declined the offer. He didn't want to experience any criticism from Sylvia's family, he already heard enough and knew what he did wrong.

"Mm.." She eyed him before walking away.

Sylvia came back out with 2 pair of shoes in her hand.

"Which one Zariah?" She asked and Ezariah pointed at the air forces.

"Why not these?" Sylvia held the sandals up higher. "It'll match your dress."

Zariah shook her head still pointing at the air forces. Sylvia eventually gave in, Na'Jour put the shoes on her before Sylvia handed him Ezariah's bag.

"She ate and slept about an hour ago. If your keeping her overnight let me know first. She took a bath already but if she spending the night with you, bathe her before she go to sleep. Make sure t—"

"I know... how to take care of a kid. I know her routine Sylvia chill.." He interrupted her.

"You ready?" He looked at Ezariah. She nodded, said bye to her mom and grandmother, then they left.
