it was a little after midnight when kartier pulled up outside kamiyah’s apartment. he’d had their son since friday, and after a whole weekend of chasing an eight-month-old around, he was more than ready to hand him back over.
their son was already asleep in his car seat, so kartier carried him upstairs while kamiyah held the door open.
she asked quietly he ate already?
“yeah, he had a bottle before he fell asleep.”
he spoke in his low tone for Kymani. he came in when Guest moved aside and went to lay kymani in his crib. Guest had grabbed the diaper bag and put it in its usual spot then went to watch him lay their son down
once he was settled, kartier came back into the living room, but instead of leaving, he dropped onto the couch.
she chuckled
“boy, you too damn comfortable on my couch. you good tho?”
