August Alsina

"I kno you cookin' fa me?" I questioned walking into my mama kitchen greeting her with a kiss to the cheek. "Now why wouldn't I cook for my baby", she laughed stirring inside the pot one more time placing the spoon on the cloth sitting on the counter. "So what's been going on with you since I haven't seen you in 5 years", she eyed me causing me to laugh out. "Mama stop being dramatic it's only been a week", she shrugged sitting across from me. "It feels like it when I don't see you guys everyday", she laughed a bit as I tugged at my hair. "But nothin' just working the usual nothing interesting ever happens", I shrugged feeling her eye me down.

"What about the therapy you still going?", she asked and I nodded. "Yeah I've been goin' mama believe it or not she's been a big help", I couldn't help but smile thinkin' about how excited Nani was the next day to tell me about her day with Monah. "Mhm if I didn't know any better I would think she's more than just ya therapist", mama smirked causing me to scrunch up my face. "Why you say that?", I chuckled. "You're cheesing too hard and don't forget you came from me boy so you can't lie", she pointed out. Licking over my lips I couldn't help the fact that I was feeling her, for some reason I feel like she was placed in my life and it wasn't just to be my therapist.

"So you want to tell me how she was a big help?", she broke me out of my thoughts patiently waitin for me to continue. "It's just her ways mama like yesterday she watch Nani  for me and my baby had the time of her life she goes out her way fa me and I appreciate it a lot", I explained watching her smile brightly. "Aw baby you feeling this woman a lot I have to meet her she got your nose wide open", she placed her hand on her hip. I shook my head she crazy. "I wouldn't say that mama", I cleared up nobody will eva have my nose open or wrapped around they finger I learned that the hard way. "Mhm hmn sure Aug but have you did anything to show appreciation?", she tended to her pot looking over at me every now and then.

"I took her on a friendly date das about it", she grinned playfully rolling her eyes. "And you're not feeling her I think it's time for you to start dating Aug you need a woman and Monah sounds good", she said once again making me shake my head. "Soon mama and Ion know about that", I said just to get her out of my hairs. Before she could respond Chan mouth could be heard inside the house followed by another.

"Hey mama, August", she mushed me walking over to greet my mama. "Guys this is my home girl Rhenna, Rhenna this is August and Mel's mother", she introduced us. I couldn't help but stare at her taking in her appearance Rhenna was definitely somethin' worth looking at. She caught me starin sending a smirk my way before speakin, "Its a pleasure meeting you", she smiled eyeing me down. "Mhm hmn you not slick August, come on girl", Chan smirked linking arms with Rhenna walkin' out the kitchen. She sent a wave my way making me lick ova my lips. I had to get to know her before she left something was tellin me I'll be seeing her more often I know Chan ways.

"Don't get ya self caught up in that girl August I can smell her from a mile away she's trouble", Mama pointed making me wave my hand she's always being dramatic how you judging the girl without knowing her. Shit I'll be the judge of that.

Monah Hicks

"I missed you", I hugged my mother tightly as I entered the kitchen. "Mhm you never come see me", she pinched my cheek as I sat down in the stool. "I know mama work has been getting to me", I explained playing with the fruit bowl. "Mhnn hmn besides work how have your love life been any new men I should know about?", she raised her eyebrow causing me to laugh. "Mom what makes you think I have a new man in my life", I challenged in which she gave me a certain look. "You're glowing honey if he's not in your life you're thinking about it", I shook my head grabbing a pear going to wash it off.

"Mom nobody is in my life I tried dating it didn't work and I just went on a friendly date recently with one of my patients other then that that's it", I explained taking a bite out of the fruit. "A friendly date since when is it ok to mix business with pleasure?", she looked at me funny putting down her oven mitten. "Its not and I'm not it was strictly friendly that's it", I cleared up in which she turned her nose up shaking her head. "Friendly or not he's your patient nothing more plus you shouldn't be trying to date those psychopaths anyways you can do better", she continued to shake her head.

"He's not a psychopath you don't even know him to be judging his character", I shot watching her head snap in my direction. "Excuse me you will not talk to me any type of way I am your mother and like I said if he needs a therapist he's crazy simple as that and if you knew better you'll keep it strictly professional, what it looks like to me is you're desperate for a relationship so you're going as low as your patients honey that's trashy and I had high expectations of you", she sneered and it did something to me. Every since my sister died my mom has been on my case about the slightest things since I'm her only child now she want everything to be perfect from my appearance on down to who I'm dating.

She judges me and sometimes talk down on me and I don't understand why, I try to ignore it but it's eating me up. It only got worst when my father left which makes me feel like that's the reason she's so strict on me, I'm really all she have now.

"Don't sit there with a long face you know I'm right you need to tighten up and do better or you're going to make me start looking bad", she scoffed and that was my cue to leave, I'm tired of her trying to dictate on how I live my life and how I go about things. "Yup chase the hoodlum and when he messes up don't come running back here I've been through this once with you and I refuse to do it again", she called out. Biting my lip to prevent the tears from falling I quickly made my way to my car. I'm starting to feel like nothing goes a planned and it's making me unease, when am I going to be happy?
