"Come on guys I'm tired as shit and I want to go back to bed" Bobby yells from the bottom steps drinking some coffee. "Aw my poor baby is so tired" Bobby forces a smile as his head begins to pound. "Instead of staying up all night with that girl you never bring home, you should be in bed" Bobby sighs in his cup. "Ma, its just not the time" Evelyn rolls her eyes putting her coat on. "If you say so, but make it quick I'm not getting any younger" Bobby nods leaning against the wall watching Evelyn. Picking her purse up off the counter Evelyn makes her way outside the house. "Bobby can you go get a couple things for dinner tonight after you drop them off" Bobby raise an eye taking another sip. "What is a couple things Ma"
"Steak, potatoes, green beans, salt, pepper, A1 sauce, onions, sour cream, milk, and can you pick up some drinks for you guys. And maybe some more cereal and pancake mix, oh and bacon. Don't forget to get both turkey and pork, I will give you two hundred. Cause I also need my dry cleaning picked up"
Bobby drops his head and puts his cup down on the table "I didn't want to go grocery shopping Ma" Evelyn nods her head "please I have to work today" Bobby shakes his head. "Okay ma I will do it no problem" Evelyn smiles giving Bobby a kiss on the cheek. "Give everyone a kiss for me" She calls out before going outside to get in her car. Grumbling to himself Bobby could hear foot patting down the steps.
"Bobby after school I gotta talk to you" Bobby sets his mug in the sink to look over at Angel who is throwing his book bag on over his huge winter coat. "Sure thing just remind me" Bobby says squatting down as Tiffany runs up to him. "Hey chinky" Bobby says standing up holding Tiffany with one arm.
"Hey bb, I had a good dream"
"About" Bobby ask raising an eyebrow. "I was in unicorn land eating nothing but candy and guess what bb" Tiffany says smiling harder staring at Bobby. "What chinky" Tiffany throws her hands up "I said guess" Bobby looks around seeing Angel at the table eating cereal with Jeremiah while Jack ran around getting his stuff together. "Uh I killed them all and took you to the dentist" Tiffany giggles shaking her head. "No silly, you was the king unicorn. Your horn sparkled, you was really pretty with white fur" Bobby smiles. While Angel and Jack laugh and Jeremiah snorts. Bobby looks over at the table as Jack finally settles down to eat some cereal. "Shut up and hurry up before your walking to school, then you can laugh and freeze your balls off" Jeremiah snorts again as Angel and Jack laugh quietly.
"Nice dream chinky" Bobby says looking back at the fiver year old. "Hey bb can we go get pancakes at McDonald's for breakfast I don't want cereal" Bobby nods as he walks to the living room and set Tiffany down. Grabbing her coat off the rack he puts it over her long sleeve pink shirt. Zipping it up Bobby steps back and look at her outfit of to see if she will be warm enough. Which Bobby figures since she is wearing jeans and pink tennis shoes. "Okay let's go now" Bobby yells groaning inwardly as his headache worsens. Grabbing Tiffany's hand they walk out to the car and he puts her in the backseat and watch her put her seatbelt on. Walking to the driver's seat Bobby gets in and turns the heat up. Bobby rubs his hands together and blow the horn "its cold as balls out here" Tiffany nods her head. Soon everyone comes out and get in, Angel and Jack in the back with Tiffany and Jeremiah in the passenger seat. Jeremiah puts his hands up to the heater "it's cold-"
"As balls" Tiffany finishes smiling making Jeremiah turn around to look at the smiling child. "And who taught her that" Jeremiah ask looking between Angel and Bobby. Jack snorts as Angel and Bobby smirks "beats me" Angel says. Bobby shrugs as Jeremiah stares at him, backing up Bobby ignores Jeremiah's eyes. "First you get her suspended for three days then you teach her this phrase" Bobby shakes his head. "No no if I remember correctly all I told her was hit the little kid in the mouth if he bites you again-"
"And if he does it again hit him in his mouth with those toy frying pans in the classroom"
Bobby chuckles remembering Ma picking Tiffany up from school because she hit the kid with the plastic pan two times after the punch to the mouth. "And didn't Jackie say she will pop her if she comes home crying again and didn't do anything" Jack includes. "Shut up Jack" the other three say all together.
"Are we going to see Jackie at lunch bb" Bobby looks through his rearview mirror. "We will try, we have to get groceries and Ma's clothes from the cleaneesr" Tiffany nods looking ahead. "How many more days she got until she can go back to school" Bobby snorts. "Five"
"I mean she did beat that boy who was talking about Ma bloody"
"Lil shit deserves it" Bobby mumbles stopping in front of Jack's school. "Bye Crackerjack" Angel and Bobby yell as back walks to the building. "Would you two grow up and act civilized"
"My bad we don't walk around like we have a stick up our ass" Angel says as Tiffany gasp. "Doesn't that hurt Jerry, I will tell Ma to take you to the doctor" Jeremiah turns around to glare at Angel. Bobby pulls up in front of Angel's school to then turn around and hit Angel's thigh three times.
"Watch your mouth"
Angel tries to move out of Bobby's reach but fails. "She repeats you all the time Bobby" Angel hiss rubbing his thigh. "And I deal with it, but you need to watch your mouth around her. Plus ma doesn't like you talking like that anyway" Angel rolls his eyes getting out. "Wait here for Jerry and Jack after school or that's your ass" Angel sighs slamming the door shut. Bobby rolls Jeremiah's window down "don't slam my baby's door like that again Angel" Bobby yells over Jeremiah. Pulling off Jeremiah looks at Bobby and Bobby sighs. "I know I know don't lecture me" Jeremiah turns around to face Tiffany who is playing with a doll. "Angel was just playing Tiff so don't repeat him cause what he said was naughty" Tiffany nods smiling. "So your okay Jer" Jeremiah nods his head. "Even if it's true" Bobby mumbles, Jeremiah looks at Bobby and narrow his eyes. Stopping the car in front of the school Jeremiah speaks up. "Get Jackie from the house so she doesn't get into any trouble, she can help you with the errands for Ma" Bobby nods his head waiting for Jeremiah to get out. "Okay Jerry gesh" Jeremiah smiles at Tiffany before getting out and walking in the building. "About to get loud mouth Jackie" Bobby says adjusting his rearview mirror to see Tiffany. Tiffany screams in joy driving back to the house, turning on the street Bobby sees a blue car parked by the mailbox.
"What the hell"
Bobby mumbles driving closer to see Jackie outside in shorts and a tank top with her head in the car. Pressing his foot on the gas he swerves the car into the driveway making Tiffany giggle as she throws her hands up. Putting the car in park Bobby gets out leaving the door open walking to the car, but Jackie takes her head out. "Okay bye baby, you need to go now" and the car sped off. Turning around Jackie stares at Bobby as he grab her and she sighs. "Who the fuck was that" Jackie shrugs trying to get out of Bobby's iron grip. "Its okay because I know his license plate 4BX G21, if I see the fucker again-" Jackie finally snatches her arm away. "Your overreacting Bobby, you don't even know him" Bobby snorts. "Don't have to, now get your ass inside and put some clothes on, its cold as hell out here. Trying to be fucking grown, your freezing your nipples and ass cheeks off" Jackie rolls her eyes walking to the house. "Hurry up" Jackie throws her hands up "don't you see me going, cool your tits big boy" Bobby walks in after Jackie.
"So what's his name" Jackie laughs walking up to her room ignoring Bobby. "Don't fucking ignore me"
"Bobby let it go, jeez, its nothing serious right now" Bobby rolls his eyes watching Jackie come back down with a sweat shirt and sweat pants holding her timberlands. "Bullshit, for your sake and his sake, I better not see his narrow behind again" Jackie laughs slipping her foot inside and walk out the door with Bobby behind her.
"Go back in the car and get the money in the glove department, I forgot it" Jackie rolls her eyes walking out the grocery store. Walking closer to the car Jackie narrows her eyes seeing a boy opening Bobby's door. "What the hell" Jackie curse as she runs up to the car. "Hey kid" Jackie yells taking off on full speed, looking over the boy fumbles around the car and then jump out. Trying to take off but Jackie grabs him by his winter coat yanking him back. "Little fucker, you know who the fuck you stealing from? I'm Jackie Motherfucking Mercer, I will fuck you up and I don't care that you just came out of diapers either" Jackie whispers harshly pushing the boy up against Bobby's car. The boy shakes his head eyes watery "no ma'am I wasn't stealing swear, I was just cold and I was sitting in there to-" Jackie puts her other hand in his pockets and pats him down. "Fucking liar kid, you ready for this ass beating your about to receive, then ima take you to your momma" Jackie says taking a wad of money out the boy's coat pocket. The boy shakes his bottom lip and look up trying not to cry looking down Jackie sees a huge bruise on his neck and another smaller one on the other side of his neck. Sighing Jackie rubs the back of her neck.
"What's your name kid" Jackie ask, the boy shakes his head. Jackie's right eye begins to twitch in irritation and she pinch the boy's chest. "Hey I'm talking to you, kid" Jackie snaps and the boy looks at her and shake his head. "Terrance" Jackie loosens her grip on the boy and pull him inside the store. "After we get groceries, my brother will drop you off home" Terrance fixes his face", don't worry about it, I will walk home I live right down the street" Jackie snorts "oh really" Jackie says walking up to Bobby. "Hey found this kid trying to keep warm in your car, can you give him a ride home" Bobby looks over and snorts. "No" Jackie pinch Bobby's arm, "Take him home Bobby and stop being a bitch" Bobby role his eyes as all four them walk around the grocery store.
"So kid you stay over there" the boy nods and Jackie turns around. "Where the fuck you stay and stop lying, I didn't pop your ass earlier like I should have now stop playing games" Jackie says and Tiffany gasps covering her mouth. "You cussed sissy, mommy say you guys not aloud to cuss" Jackie ignores her younger sister and look back at the boy. "Were going home" Bobby nods driving them all home.
"Oh my gosh Jeremiah, the little boy is only five and he is out there-"
Evelyn stops seeing Tiffany run in and right behind her was Bobby and Jackie and a little boy carrying groceries. "Ma, we have company"
Evelyn stares at the little boy who sighs. "Uh hey miss Evelyn" Jackie stares in between his mother and Terrance. "What the-"
"Don't finish that sentence young lady, and Terrance bring your narrow behind over here" Terrance slowly shakes his head. "Uh I don't want to" Evelyn cross her arms over her chest "your from the home" Terrance nods his head. Jackie puts the bags down and then grab Terrance by his shirt and with a open palm pops Terrance in the mouth. "Don't fucking lie to me no more in your life" Jackie says throwing Terrance toward Evelyn and pick the grocery back up and go to the kitchen.
"Come in" Jackie says in response to the knock at her door. Slowly the door opens to Jackie on her back looking at the ceiling. "Uhm miss Jackie I'm sorry for causing you trouble earlier today" Jackie looks over to see Terrance standing in her doorway. "Don't swear it, welcome to the family" Terrance nods smiling. "Oh and kid don't lie to me again" Terrance looks back at Jackie who pulls her shorts up a bit to reveal a scar. "My father did that" Terrance states opening his mouth but then close it nodding his head walking out the room and closing it behind himself.
