"Hell yeah I know I ventured off to the left but I did it because I could ha techiebynature channel in full effect get your own channel you can do what I do! Yo Kianna coming up next are the following folks we'll be interviewing in the next…"
"What? Aww hell no! DAMN! Why did he say that he…why you looking at me like that? What we'll be back after these messages! 20 minutes after the hour."
"We not taking a break we gonna give an update of all the foolishness that went down, you worried about your slice of cake, it's alright you gonna get it what are you doing over there."
"I'm about to send you know who a meme of zero fucks given. Why you looking at your screen like that?"
"Tiffany just sent me this meme she wants me to verify that she's in the right she don't know how to talk to people it says, "Look! It's a picture of all the fucks I give" and it's blank."
"Don't do that it's too soon you can't be doing that Jay get her and your cousin in check right quick before I call in on this Saturday. Saturday? This is new the KiJay Show comes on Saturday they doing it big."
"Ki girl…I'm gonna let her go in because she do what she gon' do there is no need for me to stop her we're going to break look at your clock that's how many minutes before the hour."
I turned off the radio. "They some fools I'm gonna get Jay the next time I see her. Logan and Ian you guys all packed up."
"Yeah, we were just about to run across the street. Bye TJ and Parker we had fun maybe we can have a sleepover again at my house I'll ask my mommy if it's okay."
"That's cool tell Preston he gonna be around more since he transferred it was nice to meet the both of you that Broadway Bitches video..." TJ elbowed Parker in the stomach. "What? Oh I'm sorry TJ told me about his part 2 I'm straight on that side no more of that from me I promise."
"Okay, Ian and Logan y'all can run now look both ways! Rachel and Kurt we'll meet up late dinner."
"I can't do dinner, lunch?"
"I can't do lunch I can do dinner!"
"Just text me we'll figure it out Stenise you guys are rolling out too?"
"Yeah, I got to get my items ready for my BTA I have people coming from all over the world I'm World Wide, Stevie take my things, Deja go ahead get in the car Preston you can sit up front." My jaw dropped as Preston left. "Yeah I had to take him bald make it a matching set. Thank you for hosting us."
"It was nothing my house is your house and same goes for yours."
"You know it, JT come kiss mommy we're leaving daddy is gonna pick later today or tomorrow, you get to pick."
"Monday! I bought my backpack with me along with my uniform seeing as you and Deja gonna have a strong discussion I felt it last night." JT hugged her. "Bye mommy don't take it easy on her." Denise waved as they pulled off. "Preston and Deja thought it up while y'all were in the kitchen."
"JT, why would you say that now you get Deja and Preston running down the street for their lives?" I closed the door. "You are so wrong for that."
"I know it's awesome being a little brother." He and Parker hi five. "Right Parker?"
"Yeah it is you can say anything and mommy gonna take your word for it but there is always that moment that's unexpected where the oldest gets the upper hand."
"Truth, I'll have the luxury of an upper hand not so much lower hand you don't live with me, mommy want are we doing today because I want to go to the park."
"Yeah auntie please let's go to the park."
"No after what you both learned on there think of something else we can do." They shrugged their shoulders. "I don't understand shoulder shrugs y'all run off to play I need to talk to Puck."
"Hey kiddos, Mercedes looking cute there you and Alex J glowing and stuff she made any more purchases?"
"No Puck I haven't seen any more packages yet that doesn't mean she's not browsing, you want water, some tea, a bite to eat? I can whip you up a plate the boys ate everything. Breakfast or lunch?"
"Um…I'll just have breakfast nothing to fancy eggs and toast Sam told me that TJ is going back to school next week." I sighed. "Sorry didn't mean to bring that up."
"It's cool Sam put his foot down Monday my baby returns. Here is your drink."
"Thanks." He took a sip. "Maybe you can work your magic in the bedroom you worked it before got a little tectus on board."
"I could but I'm not in the mood Puck you don't need to hear that."
"I've already heard worse remember I told you to turn on the shower up the volume or something TJ was outside your door. Is TJ still eavesdropping? Remember that time you had hands on he was outside the door that's when JJ lied to you saying it wasn't Tank when it was."
"I remember that I had to get on Sam to be open with me about not keeping things away from me. He kept something away from me I had to dream about it to find out."
"What was that?"
"Yeah we're staying on the east coast for 2 weeks, mom, mom, I." He pointed his phone. "Mom! I'll call you back later bye. You told her."
"Yes, I did tell her because she asked me will you be here for Halloween and I told her you wouldn't be she wants to know why you didn't tell me then either."
"Like I told you last night its' been a lot going on we had all of the fun in the world and I slip up for this and you feeling some kind of way. Come on Mercedes you can call FaceTime me we did it during training camp. Just 2 weeks."
"You fail to forget that every single time you went away something happened let me refresh your memory, Stevie got shot, my brother got shot, Tank rolled up on me in the mall, he came by our house while you were there JJ ran him off he showed up here!" I screamed.
"Shhh…don't want TJ or Parker to find that out…"
"Umm…."
"I'm sorry just that…"
"Ummm…Mercedes my toast is burning never mind I got it! Y'all continue or do you mind if I say something."
"No Puck go ahead."
He cleared his throat. "Thank you I see where the both of you are coming from all of this fun you guys had the safari, the wedding, Denise party things starting to slow down Mercedes just wants to know that while you're away nothing will happen, am I right?"
"Basically yeah I could have prepared my mind for this we're surrounded by family but all of them don't replace you when you aren't here. When are you leaving?"
"Not this upcoming week but the next week it's gonna fly by nothing will happen. I promise you that. Please stop giving me that I can kill you in my mind look." He hugged me from behind. "I'm sorry before I head on out I can make it up to you. Alex J kicked so her too she kicked again so TJ as well."
"Oh you were going to make it up to us the kids wanted didn't have a plan you can take all of us to Chuck E Cheese. You don't have to kiss me like that Sam! Get your lips off my…" Puck waved smiling. "We have an audience."
"Puck forgot you were here for a minute I was about to get up in it. What?" He laughed. "I love you boo boo."
"No worries y'all worked that out quick I'm going to take this to go gotta go check in our little hostage take him some drink he's getting low."
"Don't hurt him too bad Puck."
"Puck, don't listen to Mercedes she somewhat trying to protect him, hurt him the best way you can keep him in an inch of his life." By the tone Sam's voice I knew he was serious. "I'm serious Where are you keeping him at?"
"I can't really tell you he's fine had a little scare but I put that on the back burner I'm straight your boy never fumbles. Y'all have a good one gonna pick up PawPaw go ride out y'all have a good Saturday. Bye!"
"Bye Puck."
TJ's POV
We slid down the door. "See I told you that, y'all didn't believe me glad mommy said it something bad is going to happen in two weeks, watch."
"TJ, JT and I been telling you that nothing isn't going to happen to you get that out your mind you gonna be safe you got me, JT, Preston, ain't nothing going down."
"That's what y'all think every time my daddy went away things happened. I went to the park with Logan some guy knew my name was chasing after me in all black. Tank and his cousin Rick were waiting at Uncle Stevie hostage making him drive to where we lived only to be beat down. I was up in the window watching it go down; Uncle Puck took me shopping for a video game we run into and his mother. See I have a good memory I don't forget anything.
"Yeah cuzzo not to mention my mother she's always prepared cheer up remember Chuck E Cheese we gonna see that walking rat he's Mickey cousin twice remove he is Chuck E couldn't get access to Disney World or Land so he got his own business franchising it out you get it he wants all the cheese."
The doorknob jiggled. "Why is this door locked? TJ, JT, and Parker open this door we don't lock doors here. What is going on up in here the game is paused were y'all eavesdropping?"
"No, mommy we weren't just paused the game because we gotta use the bathroom."
"The bathroom okay it's one over there." JT went to use it. "Coming to tell you that we're going out go get changed, JT will be up there shortly."
I hugged mommy. "Okay."
"TJ thank you for the hug, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine just wanted to hug you mommy, I may not I mean...I love hugging you, you the bestest mommy ever."
"You are the bestest son ever go get changed mommy's hands are hot for skeeball gonna win get a whole bunch of tickets."
"What was that about?"
Puck's POV
"PawPaw I want to thank you for joining me to check on Tank."
"It was nothing once I found out that Dunky wasn't really up to par I knew that would need a man like me that's always on point that can aim and not mess stuff up if you know what I mean."
"Totally understand what you mean he had his pros but a lot of cons." We pulled up to the building. "Everything looks good." I pulled out my keys. "Where is my key? My key is missing from the ring!"
"You need a key to get in here the door is opened I just turned the knob. Think Lucky that's that boy name came by here get Tank back for what he did to him."
"No, oh fuck." Tossing my keys I ran the lower level. "TANK!"
"Wait up for me!"
Reaching the last room it was empty on the floor was a note I picked it up. "Got 'em."
