"Hey mom."

Mom? Her genes strong as hell.

"Mama this is Dave. Dave this is my mother." She introduced the two.

"Nice to finally meet you Dave."

"Nice to meet you.."

"Just call me laurel sweetheart."

He nodded looking around the room.

Lauren grabbed his hand pulling him on another direction behind her going towards the dinning room.

"Dad this is Dave, dave this is my father John."

East held out his hand for a handshake. John shook his hand noticing the strong grip.

John was thrown off by easts appearance. He wasn't expecting him to have cornrows and tattoos. He expecting someone with a suite and a clean cut.

"Nice to meet you John."

"Likewise."John nodded still taking in easts appearance.

Maurice stood off to the side watching the looks they gave east. He knew how his uncle was and he knew he expected some rich guy to be walking in with her since that's all that John would try to force her to date.

Laurel walked in making everyone have a seat so she could serve dinner.

"Dave it's nice to meet you I'm Parker."

East simply shot her a head nod. He wasn't stupid he could see the lust in her eyes as she stared at him.

"Where are you from?" She asked hearing his accent slightly bitting her lip causing Lauren to send her a mean glare which instantly made her stop.

"East Harlem but I kinda flip between there and Atlanta." East cleared his throat.

"Oh would you look at that the foods here.. ooh is that fried chicken." Maurice cleared the tension that was starting to build up.

"So how long have you two been dating?" John asked taking a bite of collard greens.

"Umm we dated for a few months.. but she's been my girlfriend for about three months now."

"So Bout seven months, that cool" John nodded. "So y'all serious now I'm guessing."

"Yeah." Lauren answered "super serious dad."

It got quiet for a while as everyone started stuffing there faces.

"So what do you do for a living?"

"Yea what do you do I see you have a lot a tattoos and I know no one would wanna hire you." Parker spoke looking at east then Lauren who was trying hard to stay calm.
