“Like Uncle Cay?”
“Well, your uncle is a different kind of friend. I’m still getting to know him.”
“He’s my best friend. He can be a real good friend to you too.”
I smiled. “You think so?”
“Yeah! He can take you for ice cream, and you can have sleepovers and watch movies and go to the park! All kinds of stuff!”
Her excitement was infectious, and I couldn’t help but laugh.
“Sounds like you two have a lot of fun together,” I said.
“So much fun!”
“Okay, Precious,” Bella said. “Don’t talk Ms. Pasha’s ear off. Why don’t you go in the living room and watch TV for a little bit?”
“Okay, Mommy.”
She kissed my cheek before I put her down, then ran off.
“She’s the sweetest thing,” I commented.
“She’s like her daddy when it comes to meeting new people. He’s very friendly. Just don’t be alarmed if he looks at your teeth. It’s kinda his thing as an oral surgeon.”
I snickered. “Callum has warned me.”
“Soooo...” She dragged the word out as she stirred her pot. “You and my brother?”
“He’s just a friend.”
“Callum doesn’t have female friends. You must be pretty special.”
“Well, I wouldn’t say that.”
“If you saw how he was smiling while talking to you earlier, you would.” She smirked as she looked at me. “You two would make a beautiful couple. And I’m not just saying that because that’s my ugly-ass brother.”
I laughed. “He’s quite handsome.”
She pretended to gag. “He’s okay.”
“Well, Precious’s teachers seem to think so.”
“I’m learning that her teachers are thirsty. He pays them no mind, though. Precious is all he sees when he has her. They make me sick sometimes, girl. She’ll literally forget about me when she’s with his big-head ass.”
“Isn’t that what uncles and aunties are for?”
She kissed her teeth. “I guess.”
The sound of approaching footsteps caused her gaze to shift. When Callum and, who I assumed to be her husband, walked in, she stopped stirring the pot and placed her hands on her hips. Callum raised his palms in surrender.
“I told him,” he stated. “He said he wasn’t afraid of you.”
His brother-in-law slapped his arm. “Bruh!” He glared at him for a moment before smiling, walking over to his wife, and sliding his arms around her. He placed a kiss on her lips.
“I didn’t say that, baby.”
Callum smirked. “Punk ass. Pasha, this is Martin. Martin, this is Pasha.”
