Cappadonna hopped out the driver’s seat of the Maybach, and then Capone the Bentley. Erin and Alaia both got out, with Jean in the back seat of the Maybach. The staff rushed over and grabbed their bags from the back, while Cappadonna kissed his wife on the lips a bunch of times. He held her face and kissed her lips while staring into her eyes.

She was his entire world.

Promise got out the back of the car with Jean’s help, while the twins were running behind her. Erin unloaded Cooper, Cee-Cee, and Rory from her truck.

I watched in horror at all the kids playing around before getting on this jet. This jet with me… a woman who didn’t do kids. A full flight with children and babies sounded like a nightmare.

I mean, I loved the kids, but there were so many of them. Overstimulation had nothing on the Delgato kids. Promise headed toward me and I almost wanted to hide. That little girl was tough, and secretly she scared me.

“Hi Tee-Tee Zoy.”

I smiled at her. “Hey, Promise. You ready to go on a trip?”

She looked at me and struggled to climb up the steps. When I tried to help her, she gave me a look that could kill. “I do it, Teetee.”

I backed up and allowed her to continue up the steps, although she was struggling.

“And when you fall, you better not start hollering, Promise.” Alaia came over with her purse, and another bag on her arm.

“I nots!” she hollered back, still struggling with that same step.

“Girl, don’t have no damn kids,” she playfully joked, watching her daughter to make sure she didn’t fall up the steps with her stubborn self.

“Too late,” I muttered, and Alaia nearly snapped her neck to look me in the face. How the fuck she heard what I said was beyond me.

“Alhamdulillah! Zoya, I’m so hap⁠—”

I bawled her lips up before she could go on. “How the hell did you even hear me in the first place?”

“Girl, I’m a mother of three kids and a grand quack. I hear every damn thing.”

“We haven’t told anyone yet…we both agreed not to tell anyone right now,” I damn near pleaded with her.

Goo wanted to tell his mother before anyone, and I wanted to break the news to Menace. I don’t know why I felt like he should have been the first person to know from my side, but something inside me told me to tell him.

Maybe because I was around when we found out Stevie was pregnant, so I wanted to keep the fake tradition in our family.

“It’s not my business to tell. I am so happy for you… just wanna scream it to the world.” She stomped in joy. “Oh, and Zoya?”

“Yeah?”

“Don’t you ever ball my damn lips up. I’ll drop kick you, k?” she winked, as Capp carried over the boys.

“Give Daddy a kiss and behave right?”

They both kissed their father’s cheek, and he put them down.

“Good,” Captain said, staring up at his father.

“You need to be having that conversation with your daughter.” Alaia looked up at her husband, and he kissed her cheek.

“Stop.”

“What?”

“That worried look, Joy.”

“Can you blame me?”
