Growing up my fathers house use to full of his workers who got involved in my teenage years. Some of them taught me a thing or two aside from the things my dad had time to. My mother had got her hands on most of them one by one but still my father was so naive of it. I knew because she would put me in any after school program you can think of but they were so distant when she'd come around. And I happen to be home when I caught her in the act one day. Its crazy I felt bad for my dad knowing it took her breaking it off for them to actually separate. He never discussed why they had separate in the beginning but if I had to assume there was plenty reasons. Directing my attention on Yasmin she was fidiling with her fingers before I reached over with my free hand to rub hers and than her belly. Oh man how had her body has changed with the baby but made her more thick in other areas. I touched her thigh rising my hand up before she pat my hand away. Making the last turn before pulling up to my fathers driveaway.
Right away I noticed my grandmother car was there. I failed to mention my grandmother was the cook of the house. My father house was occupied with cars as the garage aroused for his valet worker to take my car. I got out the car to picked up our bags out the trunk to see the shocking look on Yasmin face. She walked with me before approaching the door. I know her attitude was about to sky rocket but if I had asked she'd say no. I knew she could be off and work from the house. Plus I want her to get to know my family. My mother had no family members she dealt with to my knowledge. So my father side was the only family left worth meeting. We walk inside and I walked in to smell my grandmother cooking her famous pigfeet rice. Now my grandmother was down to earth sometimes to outspoken still I wouldn't change her for the world. Walking inside with Yasmin following close behind a guard was at the door the moment he saw me he broke out of his security mode.
"Yoooo ma dukes look whos here???"
"Now I told you bout bringing that damn hood bitch out of me dont make me put a cap in your ass."
She walked out the door entrance to the kitchen to run over to hug me after I let the guard hand go named Priest who worked for my dad mostly. I picked her up off her feet swinging her around. She hadnt age none still her hair pretty and long as ever. I kissed her on the cheek as I put her down she wipped it off.
"Stop putting your damn lips on me I don't know where they been. Anyways whos is this beautiful high yellow girl."
"Grandma stop that shes not high yellow its lightskin and this is the love of my life Yasmin."
Yasmin extended her hand before my grandma rolled her eyes asking when she due. I told her in about 3 more months.Yasmin wasnt feeling the love at all and her face said it all.
"Baby I'm going to talk with my grandma and let him take you up to our room."
"Ummmm hell no yall not sleeping in the same room Lik Lik you know better than that."
"Grandma she having my baby and we sleeping in the same room. I already spoke with my dad about it before I got here. I knew you was going to say that to me. So Priest take her to my room and make sure the housemaid know to bring extra linen please. Oh yeah and make sure my snack cabinet full."
I walked into the kitchen to my grandmother who left me to talk with the guard and give Yasmin a kiss before she departed. I leaned against the counter as she stirred her food in silence. My grandmother felt my presence before she turned to look me in the face. Turning around I hope this wasnt going to be one of those lectures about my mother.
"Grandma why you acting like that?"
"I'm not acting like anything you want to drop news on me like this than dont expect me to be nice about it. You and your daddy are just the same keeping secrets from me. I know way more than you both think I know."
"Oh really?"
"Yeah you know that the truth always come out."
I left my grandmother to go to search for Yasmin to see if she was fine with staying. Right now this was one of the safest place to be after what went on today. I looked in the room to see she wasnt in there. I went to the bathroom we shared still no her. I took off running around the house to go back to the kitchen to look for my grandmother guard. He was standing at the area he was earlier laughing. It felt like my heart was beating out my chest when I charged at Priest friend who was guard like him. He was watching my every move and smiling in my face the moment I came to him. My grandma begged me to let him go before she yelled for me to stop. I told her that Yasmin was missing since she wasn't in the room nor the bathroom. And I knew she wouldn't just wander off without me. My grandmother told Priest friend to call on his earpiece to check Priest location as I released him from my grip. There was a quick reply when he said she was in the room when he left her. I walked off to catch some air heading to my fathers office he spent most of his time in. Hoping he could help me resolve my beef with Priest and his right hand man. They always were against me but in my fathers eyes they were the worst. Still my grandma took a personal interest in them. I walked to his office as I heard voices vibrating the halls. It was down a long cordior with velvet carpet leading to the entrance. I got to the door to eased drop hearing my father and her dicussing something. But unsure of why my presence wouldn't be needed.
