"What Rome?" I asked. Twin was driving me home after a long ass day. I had been in meetings after meetings and now here Rome went calling me. Again.
"I got your son and that's how you answer your phone?" He snapped.
"Rome I really don't wanna do this arguing shit. What's up." I said.
"Your son got into another fight today with a boy at school today." He said.
"Did he win?" I asked. I was confused because we raised my son to always defend himself.
"Yeah that's not the point right now. The parents were called up and your mom showed up." He said.
"What?" I asked.
"Yeah that's what I said. She showed up and her kid was in the wrong but it was her. It was like seeing a ghost." He said.
"Okay thanks for letting me know."
"Winnie don't be going to that dark place but I had to tell you. You need me to come by." He asked.
"No I'm good." I said and hung up. I said I was good but I wasn't my mom was an addict. She was on drugs heavy from the moment I remember her. My daddy told her either us or the drugs. She chose drugs but to hear she had another kid pissed me clean off. My sister and I weren't enough for her to stop drugs but her little boy was. Yeah I was pissed and need to talk to my twin.
"I'm coming with you Winnie." Twin said.
"Fine. Stay out here. I need to talk to my sister without extra ears." I said in her living room. He nodded and took a seat. I walked in my sister kitchen and she was waiting for me.

"I been waiting on you what's the emergency?" Wynter asked.
"Your nephew got into a fight at school and Rome went up there. The mom came up to the school. It was mama." I said.
"Wait what?" She asked.
"Yes. It was her." I said.
"Sissy how you feeling?" She asked.
"She got clean for the boy but we weren't good enough? I needed my mother and where was she? What made this little boy so special?" I asked.
"Winnie don't go spiraling again." Wynter said.
"I do not spiral but I got a meeting with her at the school and I'ma need you to watch her son while I talk to her." I said.
"What? No you know I do not watch other people's kids." Wynter said.
"Girl bye you watch my son all the time. He's your brother I just need you to watch him while I talk to momma. I promise I won't kill her an hour is all I need." I said.
"Fine. Now why you got him outside the room." Wynter asked.
"He's my body guard. He wouldn't stay in the car. He insisted the only way he could do his job was to be here." I shrugged taking the drink she poured.
"He's cute not my type." She said raising her eyebrows.
"He is. I don't have time to be entertaining any many right now. These bitches at this club keep fighting like this is baddies."
"When is the last time you been on a date?" Wynter asked. I was glad her kitchen was sound proof. I did not want Twin to hear us talking about him.
"It's been like four years." I shrugged.
"Sissy you need to let loose. I see the way he looks at you. He got this light in his eyes. I know you got that crush why not act in it. Shit dust them cobwebs off." She laughed.
"We tried that and his wife busted in my house. He didn't even tell me he was married. You know I don't play that side chick shit it's either me or nobody." I said.
"But he's divorced now."
"Wynter I'm good. Plus he made it very clear the other night he's my body guard and that's it. So that shit is dead." I shrugged.
