"Watch yo' mouth in front of my wife. Then, I won't have a reason to keep hitting yo' slow ass." After he cursed Zoo out, heturned to Brooklyn. "And you"—he pointed his finger—"if you like men, just say that. No one’s gon’ care.”

"Unc ain't nobody gay. I gets bitches. I just don't be on that wife shit in two minutes like yo' son be on. My lil' lady gone come sooner or later. I don't want to rush it because I want my relationship to last just as long as you and Auntie's."

"See, I don't know why you couldn't be my child. This damn Jamison falls in love as soon as he sees a big butt and a smile."

"Ma, don't do that."

"At least this one got money, Auntie. She plays in the WNBA." There went Zoo spilling out everyone's business but his own.

"What's her name, son?"

"Naomi."

"Is she pretty?" my mama scooted closer to me and asked.

"She's beautiful." Zoo and Brooklyn started snickering.

"Don't mind them, Son. They'll be alone for the rest of their lives with their attitudes, especially that damn Zeus. He ain't got the sense God gave him."

"Auntie, don't talk too much now. You're the one calling us saying come eat Sunday dinner when today is Saturday. Who's the one with no sense now?" Before those words could get out of his mouth all the way, Pops was chasing his ass out of the house.

"Hold him when you catch him so I can get me some licks in!" my mama yelled while putting her Crocs in sport mode and rushing outside.

"They some fools." Brooklyn laughed and took a seat. "That's the type of relationship I want, though. All bullshit aside, I hope this is the one for you. Take your time and just let shit flow."

"No doubt. We ain't even had a date yet. Shit, I don't even have shawty's number, so it's definitely not as deep as Zoo's fool ass trying to make it once I finally get her ass to give in. She's feisty as fuck, but I like that shit."

"I already know! You like 'em a lil' rough around the edges."

"Fuck you, nigga. Just wait 'til you see her. You gon—"

Before I could finish my sentence, the front door came flying open.

"Sin, get yo' folks, bruh." Zoo came in the front and flew right out the back door. My pops was on his heels, but I didn't see my mama. Her ass must've gotten tired. "Fuck, they trapped me. Heeeelp! Brooklyn, get the strap!"

CHAPTER 4

NAOMI

My alarm went off at five-thirty every morning, so I could go to the gym to work out. Some days, the home gym was enough, and the other days, I liked to get out for a jog or go to the gym not too far from my house. The people knew me there, so I was never bombarded with fans.

Stopping my alarm, I went to my Instagram account to see the full messages that just came across my screen. I sometimes hated that I didn't have my messages blocked. It was always abunch of weird-ass dudes in there. This name, however, had me opening the message quick.

Sinfully_Dat_N!gga:Good morning, Beautiful.

I hesitated on my reply, but PJ and Bri popped into my head.

Naomi_No_Campbell:Morning. I'll know how good it is when you tell me why you in my D.M.????

Sinfully_Dat_N!gga:Because your guts aren't ready for me yet.

Naomi_No_Campbell:BLOOOCKED!!!

Sinfully_Dat_N!gga:I'm kidding. Have breakfast with me.

I started to block his ass for real. That was such a turnoff. Even though he looked like he had a fat dick with a mean curve... shit. The fuck was I talking about again? This nigga had me dick-stracted.

Naomi_No_Campbell:I'm not a breakfast person. I do a pre-workout shake and head to the gym, which is where I'm headed right now. If you are not trying to meet me there, then I understand.
