"Hey Nicki. Come in." Izzy's mom Vanessa smiled. "Hi Vanessa." I waved shyly as she stepped aside giving me way to come inside her home.
"I just got Brooklyn to sleep, Izzy's out back, you can come through." She told me, leading the way through her house. Izzy wanted to spend more time with Brooklyn so we agreed to let her stay over night with him for the first time and I was here to see how things were going.
"I see you managed to lose all that baby weight." Vanessa said giving me an approving head nod. "Yeah I've still got a little more to lose before I'm back at my original weight though." I admitted. Everyone has been congratulating me about my snap back but I still wasn't completely happy.
"No you look fine." See this is why I liked about Izzy's mom, she didn't care about all the mistakes I had made or judge anything I did. She was just there to be an supportive grandmother to Brooklyn. Unlike Harlem's grandma aka Nia the bitch, who lived for embarrassing me and making me feel like shit. "Thanks."
"I'm about to get started on dinner. You can go see Izzy, I think he's out there talking to Chanel." She said before heading over to her kitchen.
I nodded and made my way outside. Just like she said, there he was sat shirtless, with his feet up on the table whilst on the phone.

I cleared my throat to make him aware of my presence. He looked up and I smiled. "Alright, I'll call you back later." He said to the person on the phone before hanging up.
"Why're you looking at me like that?" I asked nervously. "Cause you look good as fuck." He replied and I shook my head laughing. He was such a flirt but was also very immature so I wouldn't being going back there with him again.

"Where are you going dressed like that?" He asked as I sat next to him. "Nowhere, I can't look good for myself?" I smiled, flipping my hair over my shoulder. "Not when you're that fine." He winked, licking his lips at me. I rolled my eyes playfully and waved him off. "Boy bye."
"You want something to eat? I think my moms in there cooking." He asked. "You know I can't never say no to some food. I'm gonna stay to eat then leave."
"I'm meant to be meeting Jay's mom tomorrow. What if she doesn't like me?" I pouted and he frowned. "Why wouldn't she?" I shrugged and looked down. "Dave's mom hates me, so does Khyree's. Your mom is the only one who's actually been nice to me."
"Stop stressing over stupid shit, she'll love you." He said reassuring me that everything was alright.
"So how's things going with the doctor?" He asked seriously. A few weeks ago I finally decided to tell Izzy how I felt about Brooklyn, he didn't react how I thought he would, instead he was very supportive and encouraged me to talk to my doctor about it.
"Alright I guess." I shrugged. I didn't really think talking to somebody helped because I still didn't want my daughter, the only difference is that more people knew about it, which meant there was more people judging me. "You love my daughter yet?" I bit my lip nervously and shook my head. "I'm getting there."
"Hurry up because I know she misses having her mom love on her, like her brother and sister." "I'm working on it Izzy." He nodded. "I know."
"Look who just woke up." We heard, I looked over at the door and saw Vanessa holding Brooklyn. "Here take her, I gotta finish cooking." She said handing Brooklyn over to him before heading back inside. "Hey princess, you see your mama over there looking sexy for daddy." Izzy smirked looking back and forth between me & Brooke, even though baby girl had absolutely no clue what he was saying she started laughing. "Stop playing." I said pushing him.
I looked back over at Brooklyn and smiled, she was so cute and loved her father more than anybody else in the world. "I didn't realise how much she looks like you." I said admiring her features. "Nah it's just the eyes. I think she looks like your mom."
"All my kids look just like their fathers. I thought at least one of my babies would look like me." I pouted. "What are you pouting about? You still got time to try again." He chuckled, I quickly shook my head. "Are you crazy? I meant what I said when she was born, Brooklyn is my last."
"What about Game? He don't want no babies?" I shrugged, we never spoke about it and I wasn't planning on bringing it up. "I don't care what he wants I'm not having no more. I'm real enough to to admit that I can barely keep up with the kids I got already. How could I deal with another one?"
"You're not that bad." Izzy laughed whilst making faces at Brooklyn causing her to laugh, slapping his face happily with her little hands.
"That bad?" I repeated and he nodded giving me his full attention.
