"Ari this is good as hell" I could hear my momma say as I walked into the kitchen where all the adults... and McKenna's grown ass... were.

Tonight everybody came over to Jeremiah's house so his momma can cook and they call it "bonding" but that's just code for them getting together so they can act like a bunch of teenagers

My momma stood beside Ari as she finished up cooking, holding a glass of wine with her bougie ass. She looked down at the wine

"What is this?"

"Louis Roederer Cristal" Ari answered "from 2014"

"Some shit she paid over $400 for when they got the same shit at Walmart for $8" Meechie blurted out, sitting at the table with my daddy who was shuffling cards

Ari sucked her teeth

"Don't nobody want that shit. I like what I paid for"

"It ain even good" he responded before holding up a bottle of Hennessy that sat on the floor beside him "now this where the real fun at and it was only $40. Y'all enjoy that Louis Vuitton shit"

"It is not called Louis Vuitton... whatever Meechie" Ari waved him off and my momma laughed

I walked over to the island where McKenna sat watching playing Roblox, leaning on it watching them cook.. well watching Ari cook and my momma "supervise"

"Kinsley, you go back to school Monday right?" Ari asked and I nodded

"They probably got me on strict probation when I go back"

"Probably. So you better not get into nomore trouble... all of y'all. I told yo friend in there I'm tired of getting phone calls from the school cause he wanna bully his teachers and other peoples kids"

"Not Jeremiah getting in trouble at school" my momma tried to act so surprised knowing damn well

"Yes Jeremiah getting in trouble at school... and his daddy SWEAR he don't know where he get it from"

My momma sat her wine glass down but then looked over at me and picked it back up

"Nevermind... cause you might try to drink my shit and you can't drink this. Better go get some of the $40 liquor from over there"

"Aye! Join the party kin" Meechie hyped me up and my daddy shook his head

"No the hell she don't. I already let all of y'all corrupt my baby enough"

"Daddy, please... I'm not the one that corrupted. You need to talk about Kyran"

"Leave my son out y'all conversation" my momma instantly defended him as both he and Jeremiah walked into the kitchen

He walked right past me and went to sit on the other side of McKenna. I let out a sigh rolling my eyes

"Ma you ain done cookin yet?" Jeremiah impatiently asked. She gave him a look and he threw his hands up

"Not you being scary" I laughed and he stuck his finger up at me

"It's almost done now get outta my face witcho talk ass" she told him and he muttered something

I could hear talking like somebody walked into the house and after a while, Brielle and her parents walked in which instantly got Meechie started

"Look at the pale posse... all of y'all clear as hell. That don't make no sense"

"Shut up Meechie" shy told him while walking over to the table where he and my dad sat

Brielle walked over to me and I saw she looked over at Kyran who wasn't really acknowledging anybody in the room. He just looked down at his phone
