Page 7 of His Four Leaf Clover

“I’ll pass but I enjoy trying,” Clover laughed while grabbing her robe from the sofa in their bedroom. She went straight to the shower while Dash freshened up the bed clothes.

Once he was done, he joined her in the bathroom. Dash was hoping to get in a quickie before they got ready to get their day started but his plans were quickly interrupted.

“Man fuck!”

Dash was pissed when he heard the alarm come on and get disarmed shortly after. He didn’t even have to wonder who it was. His father and brothers all had keys to their house, but Diva was the only one who used hers. Dash wanted to change the locks on her ass a long time ago, but Clover wasn’t having it. Diva was more than just her mother-in-law; she was more like her mother. Clover lived with them more than she lived with her own parents and she was like the daughter that Diva never had.

“Don’t start your shit this morning. You already know how it go.”

“They get on my muthafucking nerves sometimes. It’s too damn early for this shit.”

“Nasty ass thought you was ‘bout to get some more pussy huh?” Clover laughed at the frown that graced his handsome face.

“You already know what’s up.” He pulled Clover closer and kissed the back of her neck.

“No, Boobie. We both have a full day, so turn the cold water on and put that python away.”

“That muthafucker is big huh?”

He and Clover looked down at his erection and laughed. She got out of the shower and made quick work of drying off. Clover put on her Versace robe and quickly made her way down the hall to their daughter’s room. Their master bedroom and bathroom was actually on the first floor, but they only used them when Kardi wasn’t home. Dash didn’t want them to be too far away from their daughter, and Clover agreed. The entire top floor of their home wrapped around in a circle and she could see all of the rooms as well as her sitting room downstairs.

“Good morning y’all. I’m ‘bout to get her up now.” Clover peeked over the balcony and spoke to everybody downstairs.

Diva made her way upstairs to help get her granddaughter dressed. She had a pin made for her that she wanted her to wear. The men were on the pool table just like always while Amina and Caprice sat on the sofa and talked.

“I wish that miserable bitch would have stayed home.”

Diva walked into the room with a frown covering her pretty face. She tolerated Caprice on the strength of her son but she wasn’t one of her favorite people. Diva wasn’t one to pick and choose who her sons decided to be with. She loved whoever they loved and she tried her best to make her son’s new girlfriend feel welcomed. Iva was her girl but she had to accept that they were over.

She actually liked Caprice in the beginning. That was until she showed her who she really was. Monty was still locked up when she invited Caprice to accompany her and her family to Geogia for a few days. It was no secret that some of Clover’s cousins on her father’s side were jealous of her, and Caprice fell right in with their messy asses. They felt like Tilly favored Clo, but it wasn’t even like that. Corey was the only child that she’d ever lost, and Clover was the only thing that she had left of him. They stayed hours and miles away from each other, so she showed her a little extra love whenever they visited one another. She didn’t get to see her as often as she saw them so that was to be expected.

That wasn’t the real issue that Diva had though. Caprice not only befriended Clover’s hating ass cousins, she befriend Hank’s ex-girlfriend, Drea, as well. Years had passed since Hank even lived in Georgia, and Drea was still in her feelings about him leaving her for Diva. They were teens, but she must have really had her heart set on being his wife. She never married or had kids and she lived in the same house that she grew up in since her parents had passed away. Actually, she had never left home so that was all that she knew. It appeared that life had moved on for everybody else but Drea, and it was pathetic.

“It’s too early, Diva,” Clover replied while turning on the light in her daughter’s room.

“Exactly! Which is why she should have stayed home with the bullshit. I would hate to dog walk a hoe on my grandbaby’s birthday, but she better be cool. It’s too damn early for a bitch to be starting up with her mess. All that gossiping and shit.”

“You already know that Amina ain’t entertaining her. Stop worrying about Caprice. We all know she’s messy. As long as she don’t say the shit to nobody’s face, it’s all good. That bitch ain’t stupid.”

“I’m not worried about that hoe. I just hate that Monty can’t even take a piss without her holding his dick.”

“And that still don’t mean shit cause the nigga still be cheating, just like his brother.” Clover rolled her eyes when she said the last part. Dash wasn’t a saint either, so she wasn’t one to judge. Fonzo was the only faithful child that Diva had as far as she knew.

“Bitch, bye. You and Dash are one and the same. It’s just that you don’t threaten to end it all when you get caught,” Diva laughed but she was dead ass serious. According to how many times Dash threatened to kill himself over Clover, he should have been dead a long time ago.

“That’s because them niggas don’t know how to cheat. I be wanting his ass to find out what I’m doing, but he’s just sloppy with it.” Clover always made sure that her dirt got back to Dash whenever she did something wrong. She needed his ass to know that he wasn’t the only one with options.

“Iva need to stop playing and take my baby back. We wouldn’t even have to worry about seeing that WWE looking bitch no more,” Diva said, as Clover took out her daughter’s ironed uniform.

“She still love my brother, but he broke her heart. They’re gonna get back together eventually. It’s actually taking much longer than I assumed it would.”

“I hate that my baby have to wear this uniform every day.” Diva frowned when she looked at the plaid pants with the matching crisscross tie and logo shirt. Clover dressed the hell out of her granddaughter and she wished that she could have at least ditched the uniform for her birthday. It was cool though. Kardi was having a party for the weekend and she knew that she was gonna be fly. Clover definitely took her fashion sense after her mother and she had to get Diva right sometimes too.

“Happy birthday, baby!” Clover whisper-yelled to her daughter once she woke her up.

“Thank you, mommy.” Kardi smiled as she sat up and stretched. Her smile got even brighter when she looked over and saw Diva. “Hey Grammy!” All traces of sleep were removed when Kardi jumped out of the bed to hug her grandmother.

“Excuse you?” Clover put her hands on her hips and gave her daughter a look. She was only playing because everybody knew how she felt about Diva and Hank.
