Free She Fell For A Boss: An Urban Love Tale by KC Mills Page A

funny to him.
    “Sorry, my mother likes to complicate my life.” She sighed, sounding irritated.
    “It's cool, shorty, do your parent thing. That shit is sexy.”
    “How is me being a parent sexy?” Yami asked, blushing just a little.
    “Shit, I don't know, it just is. It's a lot of women out there that have kids and don't give a fuck about them, so you taking care of your daughter is sexy to me. You could be clubbing, getting high, or giving head for that matter, but you’re at home taking care of your shorty. I like that, it's sexy.”
    “You really need to think about what you’re saying before it comes out your mouth.”
    Miego chuckled, thinking about the fact that he’d said giving head. “I can't do that. If I think it, it comes out. I don't mean any disrespect, but it's true and you know it. Females be on that bullshit these days, letting men come before their kids.”
    Yami sucked her teeth. “You don't even care how what you say makes people feel, do you?”
    “Not really. Shit, if I can't be real with you, then I don't need to be around you. I am who I am, that shit ain't changing.”
    “Being real and being rude are two different things, Miego. You need a filter.”
    “If you want me to have a filter, I’ll do that shit for you, but only you. Everybody else is just gon’ have to deal with whatever the fuck I say, like it or not.
    “So I’m special now?” Again she blushed.
    “That’s on you, shorty. You can be whatever you want to be. I promise you that. I told you, give me a chance, and I got you.”
    “You don't know me to be making that kind of promise.”
    “I know a little, and that's good enough for me,” Miego said confidently “The rest is just details, and I’ll figure that shit out the more I’m around you.”
    “Who says you’ll be around me?”
    “You did, shorty, when you called me back.” Miego smiled and Yami laughed.
    “I guess we'll see about that. I have to go, though. I need to give Ray a bath and get her ready for bed.”
    “Damn, you just gon’ bail on me? I didn't even get to talk dirty to your cute ass yet and get them panties wet.”
    “Filter, please,” Yami said.
    “My bad, shorty, but how about you just call me back when you get your baby girl straight? I’m chillin’ right now, and your voice got me feeling some type of way. I really need a little more of that.”
    “I’ll think about it, but it takes forever for Ray to go to sleep, and I have a paper to write, so I’ll try.”
    “I’ight bet, I guess I gotta take that. Do your thing.”
    “Good night, Miego.”
    “Nite, lil’ bit.”
    Miego ended the call grinning like a little ass kid. He knew he was in trouble. He was feeling her already, and that was a recipe for disaster, but he was willing to take the hit because she seemed worth it.

Chapter Five
    Morning shorty, you left me hanging last night, but that’s cool. It just means I get to see you today. Shoot me a text to tell me when and where, or I’ll come looking for your little ass. Have a good day, beautiful.
    Y ami was so caught up in reading Miego's text that she didn't see her sister staring at her.
    “Please tell me you didn't call him? I know you’re not grinning like that because of Black.”
    “What?” Yami said, not really sure what Yaz had said to her.
    “Aunty Yaz, can we get breakfast from McDonald's? I want apples.” Ray ran into the room and hugged Yaz around the legs, looking up at her with an exaggerated smile.
    “Yep, we can do that, but then I have to get you to school, so we have to get it to go.”
    “Mommy, are you coming?” Ray asked, looking at Yami.
    “Nope, just you and Auntie Yaz. I don't have class today, baby girl.”
    “Ray, go get your bag and tell Grandma to help you with your shoes so that we can go. I need to talk to your mommy for a minute.”
    Ray skipped over to Yami, who was sitting on the side of her bed and threw her arms around her. “Bye, Mommy, I love you.”
    Yami kissed her
