"Happy birthday Hoe" Darren yelled.

"Oh Thank you." I smiled. She had her phone up to me and I heard yelling on the other end.

"It's a baddies birthday. We finna show out at Dave and busters. The whites ain't ready," Markell yelled at the phone.

"Yayyyy." I smiled again.

"I gotta get dressed. It's already 5:30" I said. I woke up very early today because Aaliyah cooked me a very big breakfast. Shes so sweet.

"DARREN AND DEZURE YALL DADDY ON THE PHONE." Aaliyah yelled.

"You a damn lie, my baby ain't home" He said on the other end.

"Hi Sir." I said as we stared at the screen.

"Aaliyah, quit playing. That ain't Dezure."

"Oh my god, Devonte, yes it is."

"Hi" I said again waving at him. He started crying this time, that hurt my poor heart.

"It's my birthday." I smiled. I can't even deny it anymore, that's my damn daddy. I look just like the nigga.

"I know. Shits crazy." He said wiping his eyes.

"I promise imma be home soon. They talking about letting me put on good behavior, knowing damn well I be acting a fool in here:" he said making all three of us laugh.

"Devonte stop that ain't right."

Calm down mama."

"Right just vibe." I said laughing.

"What you doing for your birthday De" He asked me.

"I'm going to Dave and busters" I said smiling harder. I ain't been there in a while, that's why I was so excited.

"At 6:30 so y'all go and get ready." Aaliyah said pushing Darren and I out of the way.

"Bye My babies." My daddy called out.

"Bye daddy."

"Bye" I smiled.

"I got a wig and I want you to wear it." Darren said.

"Lemme wash up first and then you can do it." She nodded her head before walking away.

After my shower I put on a graphic T-shirt and some black stacked sweatpants.

"You ready?" Darren asked coming into my room with the wig.

"Yes sir." I said laughing making her smack my neck with the comb.

"Keep on and tell Killa you got a crush on him."

"If it ain't obvious already." She said making me mug the shit out of her.

"I don't have a crush on him. Imma get me a boyfriend tonight." I said smiling.

"Yea mhm whatever."

After she was done with the wig, I took some pictures because we left.

Liked by

"They doing too much." I said locking my phone as we pulled up to Kill's house.

"Come on." She said.

"Y'all gotta speed it up, we don't got all day." Darren said snapping her fingers.

"I'm ready hoe." Markell said coming downstairs.

"Awww." I smiled seeing that he had a picture of me on his shirt.

"I goes all out for birthdays" he said pulling me into a hug.

"He forced me to wear one and we not even cool right now." Kb said.

"IMMA ALWAYS REP MY SISTER IN LAW. ON CRIP" Gee yelled walking out of the door.

"You got one too?" I smiled at Killa who what the same shirt on.

"You see it don't you?" He said smartly ruining my mood.

"I'm just fucking with you. Happy birthday." He smiled pulling me into a hug. Weed and cologne. My favorite.

"Y'all so cute. Anyways, who riding with who?" Markell yelled.

"You riding with Kill and KB and Oscar riding with us."

"I gotta ride with the love birds." He whispered but I heard him just fine.

"You can walk." I mugged.

"We smoking in the car too so if you don't like smoking, YOU can walk." Markell said pushing me out of the way and getting into the front.

"I wanna sit in the front" I whined.

"Nooooooo" He said.

"Get in the back." Killa said mushing his head.

I smiled and sat in the front seat.

"You smoke?" Markell asked. I nodded my head about to grab the blunt before Kill pushed me.

"You crazy as hell, if you think she smoking." He stay stopping my bag.

"Boo boo, get out." I smacked my lips before getting out. He locked the doors after I got out making me smack my lips and shoot him a bird.

"Fucking potheads.

Walking in I seen all my cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents. Guess what, I got more fucking siblings, basically my daddy got around.

I couldn't even lie and say I wasn't uncomfortable, I don't know any of these people and they sitting here staring at me and questioning me. The familiar smell of weed and cologne clouded my noses making me smile.

"What did y'all do that was so important, that you had to lock the doors?" I asked sitting down.

"We smoked some more." He said laying his head on my shoulder. Markell's stupid ass was chasing kids around. Kill just wanted to sleep.

"Why would you do that? You so tired now." I asked looking at his eyes.

"I'm hungry too." Lemme look away, chile.

"Oh"

"That your boyfriend?" Somebody's snotty nose ass kid asked loud as hell causing the party to look at us.

"Where's your mom?" I smiled smartly.

"I just asked a question."

"So did I, so answer it."

"She's right there, in the purple wig."

"So go get here." I said waving him off. I hate kids, I'll tell you that right now.

"Bout time somebody told his snotty nose ass little boy to fuck off." Uncle Earl said.

"You don't got no food or something in your purse." Kill whined.

"Here, no stop crying and leave me alone." I said giving him a bag of chips.

"I knew I fucked with you for a reason lil bit." He said smiling.

You can fuc—"Can we play some games now."

"We gotta introduce ourselves first." I rolled my eyes on the low because I was not in the mood for this shit.

"I'm your cousin, Mineah." Imma fuck that name up.

"I'm your big sister Layton." She smiled before covering her face. I guess shorty stared crying.

"You're doing to much. I'm your big brother DeVonte, don't call me that though call me Junior." I smiled and nodded my head.

"You wanna play some games, lil bit?" Kill smiled. I smiled back before nodding my head.

"Mom, can I have my card?" I asked. She broke down crying, I almost threw a fucking fit. Everybody got the nerve to be crying, if anything I should be crying, I'm the one that was kidnapped.

"You called me mom." She smiled.

"Yup. You got the cards?" I just wanted to play games.

"Here, go have fun." I took them cards quick as hell.

"We gotta go to the games that got tickets first. We can go to basketball later." I said pulling him to the ticket games.

"Spin it dumbass." I whined as he just sat there.

"We got a hundred tickets already."

We played some more games before he started throwing a fit because he wanted to play basketball.

"Sneak up there and throw the ball in." Guess what I did, snuck up there and threw some balls in.

"Get down, here come the security." He helped me down before walked away actually like nothing happened.

"How much tickets we got?"

"On your card you got 804 and on my car I got 718."

"Wait a damn minute, how you got more than me, I did the most work?"

"That's the thing, you did all the work on my card, you started playing yours at the end." I laughed.

"There y'all go, come eat." Layton said smiling.

"About damn time." Kill said.

"I'm tired as hell. I'm sorry but your birthday gotta hurry up."

"You ain't get me a gift?" I said removing his arm from around my neck.

"I got you a gift, don't worry about it right now."

"I want boneless wings and fries." I told the waitress.

"I would like to make a toast!" Markell yelled. I put my head Down, he wasn't about to embarrass me.

"I just want to say, Tuti is my sister I've never had, She came into my life with the brightest smile on her face." He put his head down making me suck my teeth.

"Bitch you so dramatic." Kill said pushing his head.

"Please just give me a minute." He said before wiping his face.

"At first She was a little abusive"

"Don't lie on my sister bitch!" Darren and Osacar screamed.

"Thank you, that's enough. Who's next" my mom said.

"There's more?" I whined.

"I'll go next." Darren said. She stood on the chair making my mom slap her leg.

"Tuti, I just want to thank you for being my mannequin head when I need you, you're a good sister, alright I'm done." She said getting off the chair.

"That was trash." I said.

"Right." Kill said after me.

"How about you go nigga." They yelled at him.

"Thanks for giving me a bag of chips when I was off that shit. Can we eat now?" He said.

"Y'all suck." I said eating my wings.

After eating, I went to go cash in these tickets.

"Don't touch nothing in this fucking store." Markell said with his lips twisted. I continued to touch and look around the store.

"You need help?" Somebody asked me, I nodded my head. I knew it was a boy, I wasn't gone look at him though.

Yes I was, lemme stop lying.

"You cute as fuck." I smiled. Somebody was burning a hole through the side of my head. I looked over and Kill, Gee, Markell and Oscar were staring at me.

Darren was smiling and clapping her hands until ages caught her.

"She 13." Markell said pulling me away from the boy.

"Didn't I say don't touch shit around this fucking store." He said throwing me into Kill.

"And if you needed help, you should've fucking asked me." Kill said.

"Guys, I feel attacked."

"You fucking should feel attacked." Gee said picking up a stuffed toy and throwing it at my head.

I'm about to cry.

"Imma just get my stuff and go." I grabbed some fun dips and the little spray candy thing, I mostly got candy, to be honest.

"Don't be crying now, you wanna be grown and talk to boys." Gee said as I grabbed my bag and walked out. They was really bullying me, I didn't even get a fucking word in.

"First of all, I didn't talk to him, he did most of the talking."

"But you smiled, that's enough talking right there." Kill said walking past me.

"Y'all gone get off my sister like I won't slap the fuck out of all y'all." Darren said grabbing my hand and walking me back to the party.

"That's why they smell musty as hell."

"You gotta work on your arguing boo, They was treating your ass." She laughed.

"Y'all ready to sing Happy birthday?" My mom asked. I nodded my head. It was getting late as hell and I just wanted to go to sleep now.

"...Happy birthday dear Dezure, Tuti, happy birthday to you." I sat there with a straight face. I felt a smack on the back of my head.

"Blow out the damn candles." Kill said. I blew out the candles and walked away.

"He really just gone hit me in front of my new family. Oh my god." I cried. Imma crybaby. I know I know.

"Why is you crying?"

"Because of you!" I screamed. It wasn't just him, it was all of them.

"Me? What the fuck did I do?"

"You embarrassed me in front of them and that boy, you don't know if I wanted his number or nothing." He cut his eyes at me making me shut up.

"You wasn't getting no number."

"I could've but y'all kept stopping my bag. I just wanna go home." I said sitting on the curb and calling Darren.

"You better get yo ass back in this Dave and busters." She said as soon as she picked up. " I wanna go home Darren."

"So you really just gone make that call in front of me? What if I ain't want you to go home?"

"I don't give a fuck about what you want. Y'all ruined my night." I said walking to Darren's car.

"I got the cake." She said running out with the cake and some gift bags in her hand.
