Laughing at Sin, I slipped my feet in my boots and left his ass sitting right there. PJ was already blowing like she was on a time schedule. Luckily, only family stayed right there or I would have cursed her ass out for acting country.
“Aye, calm that shit down out there before I go get Zoo.” Sin came down the stairs with the phone pressed to his ear. “Yea aight, just calm down. She’s on her way out the door now. Next time you do that shit, yo’ lil’ ass Benz gon’ be missing a horn.”
Sin kissed me on the forehead and then the lips. “Have fun and that dress better not be tight on my baby either. If she come out blue, we gon’ have a serious problem, Lil’ Baby.”
“I love you tooo, byyyye!” I ignored his comment about the dress because who was ‘bout to get married in a loose neck ass dress? Not me!
“Come on, Mama,” Bri teased me for walking slow as hell. I wasn’t even that big to be wobbling but a bitch was tired. Plus, Sin liked to wake me up in the middle of the night for sex, talking about he was getting me prepared for when the baby came. Yea right.
“I’m coming. This little girl be moving, and right now, it feels like she sitting on my bladder.” Gently, I pushed my stomach on the side where she was to get her to move.
“That’s right, little baby, give Mommy hell. She should have kept her legs closed like she always told me to do.”
I rolled my eyes at PJ before walking inside of the dress shop.
“Heey, welcome to Pretty Little Gowns by Gianna.”
“Hey, Love, you called to let me know that the dresses were ready to try on.”
“Yes, Mama. They are right here. I loved making your gown. Had me wishing I could do it all over again myself. Just to feel pretty one more day.”
“You are gorgeous, now, what are you talking about?” Bri interjected. I had to agree, Gianna was very cute.
“Aww, aren’t y’all sweet.” Gianna beamed before walking to the back. “I tried to make this one fit but not too fitted. We as women still want to feel beautiful and sexy on our big day but with being pregnant, comfortability is a must. So, I made sure to give you a little stretch around the tummy area. Also, per your fiancé's request when he called up here two weeks ago and said and I quote,His baby better not be blue,so yea, I had to make some adjustments.” She giggled, meanwhile I looked crazy.
“He did not call up here!”
“Yes, ma’am, he did. Something about make sure you were the most beautiful woman in the room but still let the room know that he not gone play bout chu’.” My mouth was on the floor when Gianna said that but apparently, to Bri and Peeg, the shit was funny. I couldn’t wait to get home to chew him out.
“I’m so embarrassed.”
“Don’t be. My husband, Grey, would move the room behind me, too.”
“Oh, you got yourself a fool, too?” Peeg spoke up. “Seems like we are all some fools in love.”
“Girl, shut up,” Bri told her and moved her back out the way.
“Especially you, since you wanna talk.”
Bri waved her off. She knew if she kept talking then so would Peeg. Sometimes, she didn’t know when to stop.
“Please don’t tell me you did that to our dresses, too? I like to flaunt these tiny curves.”
“PJ, please hush, and if I say you are getting a maternity dress then that’s what it is. Because who’s wedding is it anyway?”
“Yours, Bridezilla.”
I drew in a breath when she said that to me. I’d been bad, but not that damn bad to be called Bridezilla. “Gianna, do me a favor and sew a hood on her dress for me, please.”
“You guys are so crazy. I’ll be right out here. Let me know if you need help getting them on. The backs can be a little tricky.” Once she left out, we all stepped behind a curtain to change into the dresses.
“Soooo,” Bri broke the silence but only added more to it by not saying anything after.
“Soooo what, boo, what’s wrong,” I asked her because the silence was deafening right now.
“You know Brooklyn and I were having a little lovers’ spat after hearing what he said to Sin and Zoo. Mrs. Smith tricked me over there the other day, which is the day we did the vision board stuff. I get there and Brooklyn is not missing like the lie his mom told me to get me to come over. She said she hadn’t heard from him since yesterday, but sure enough, he was right behind me after I poured out my little heart to her. Anyway, to make a long story short, his little sisters wrapped my truck in Saran wrap so that I couldn’t leave and had to talk to him.”
“Now that’s some cruel ass shit,” PJ added, and I had to agree. I would have been whooping asses.
