40. Ari
“Bitchhhh this house is everything, you hear me!” Toya said as she walked in my room.
She finally made it here a couple of hours ago, and we were chilling.
I ended up ordering her some food from the local restaurant we went to on the island.
The food was good as hell. We will be going back there before we leave.
“I know right? This place is beautiful, and Juelz just purchased it for Ciera as a push gift,” I told her.
“Wheeeeettttt? I know that’s right, I need all that in my life. Why can’t I find me a Mr. Right, instead of Mr. Put Your Hands on Me,” Toya said, and I looked up at her.
“So, he is hitting you! Awww hell nawl!” I yelled grabbing my phone dialing up Zelan. Toya quickly snatched my phone out my hand. She knows we ain’t on that type time.
“No Ari, please let me handle it. I’m leaving, I promise. I just need to do it my way,” Toya said.
“You better do it quick, because I’m not going to sit around while my friend gets her face punched in, or worse killed when I know I could have done something about it, so figure it out Toya.
I got your back, whatever it is, I got you bestie,” I said to her as tears slid down both of our faces, and I was hugging her so tight.
I loved my best friend, whatever I got, she got and that’s how we’re rocking.
"I love you, Ari, I promise I'm going to leave. Thank you for being my friend, and most of all my sister,” Toya said hugging me tighter.
We went downstairs and joined the rest of the ladies.
Grams, Ms. Cynt, and Ma Simone were in the family room dancing to old school music.
Ci and Kari were watching them laughing.
“Ari come on and get in on this twerking,” Grams yelled.
“Grams, that is not twerking nor is this twerking music,” I said, laughing at her ass.
Rihanna’s song Work came on me and Toya was fucking it up.
Ciera got up to join us with her big belly self, my sister was glowing and very happy.
I hope she and Juelz could work things out, but Ci is saying that he still has a lot of ass-kissing to do.
Can’t say I blame her, but he is a keeper and he seemed like he really does love Ciera.
I really hope that this baby, that this Char chick is having is not Zelan’s baby.
I decided to shoot Zelan a text, to tell him I love him.
Me: Hey baby, I just wanted you to know how much I love you.
Hubby: You know I love you girl. I miss you and it has not been twenty- fours yet! Listen, I’m going to call you when we tie up these loose ends in the streets.
Me: Ok, be safe TTYL
Hubby: Later, sweet cheeks!
I truly love me some Zelan Kassom, can’t wait to get back home. I hope all this mess is over soon, so until then we gone enjoy this vacation.
“Ari, are you ok?” Ciera asked.
“Yes, I’m good Ci,” I responded.
“You know, when you were sleeping on the plane on the way here, our mother called me and said she wanted to get the help she needed. So, when we get back home, I’m going to help her, and we are all going to counseling.
She is our mother Ari, and I’m willing to forgive if she is willing to get the help she needs,” Ci spoke.
“It’s hard for me Ci, she was so messed up she was going to let that nigga rape me. But I understand, and I’m willing to try if she is serious about getting help,” I told Ciera, and we hugged.
"Ari, are you coming shopping with us tomorrow? CiCi is taking me shopping,” Kari said hugging my legs.
“Sure, I’m coming. We are going to shop away,” I told her pinching her cute chubby cheeks.
“Yayyyyy girls date!” Kari yelled running off.
I’m so glad Kari is getting better with the incident that happened with us.
Juelz is a great father and has gotten her a counselor to talk to.
I’m so happy that thing are working out for all of us.
I just hope our mother really wants to get better, if she does then I will be there for her.
We just have so much to overcome; it will be a challenge for me, but I’m sure I can get through it.
I’m not sure how Zelan is going to feel about it, though.
