They spent the day listening to Christmas music, cooking and drinking egg nog. When the evening approached, they ate dinner in front of the TV and watched Friday After Next, which was one of Fateema’s favorite Christmas movies. In the middle of the movie, Fateema received a phone call from Charles confirming that Baylynn was his daughter. Baylynn had mixed feelings about suddenly having a father but she put a smile on her face when she heard the news and acted excited. She knew that her life would be different from that point on but she didn’t know if she was ready for new people to enter her life after what Amelia did to her.
After the third Christmas movie, Fateema decided to call it a night and went to bed while Baylynn cleaned the dishes, placed them in the dishwasher and put the food away. When she was finished in the kitchen, she carried Brandi upstairs to her room where she changed her and put on her pajamas. As she changed into her night shirt, Brandi called her to get her attention.
“Ma-ma?”
“Yes baby?”
“Baby!
“What?”
“Baby Ma-ma!”
Baylynn turned around to see what Brandi was talking about. When she noticed that her daughter had her phone, she rushed over to see what she was looking at. Brandi managed to get on Facebook and on the screen was a picture of Ryan, Tiffany, Cashmere, Cassi and another girl that Baylynn never seen before. Studying the picture, she took a closer look at Cashmere and the unknown female. The two women favored each other a lot but she wasn’t sure if they were related or not. She went on Cashmere’s page and found out that the girl that looked like her was her sister. She didn’t tag her sister in the picture so she didn’t know her name.
After she got finished looking through all of Cashmere’s post and pictures, Baylynn placed her phone on the charger and thought long and hard about reaching out to the woman that ruined her life. Baylynn wasn’t the type to be jealous of nobody but when it came to Cashmere, she was more than jealous. Cashmere was the complete opposite of her and was more established. Outside of her having her own place and car, Baylynn couldn’t hold a torch to the college educated woman, entrepreneur and blogger. She didn’t have a career or a hobby for that matter and the only way she knew how to get money was to dip it low and spread it wide or be a mule for a drug dealer. As she compared herself to Cashmere, she felt like her only accomplishment in life was her daughter.
Baylynn thought about Brandi and the last time she saw Ramsey’s daughter. She never saw her baby girl embrace another child before. The image of the two of them hugging was permanently embedded in her memory and she wanted to reach out to Cashmere to see if they could set up a play date for the two of them but she let her pride get the best of her and shut it down.
With her mind full of thoughts, sleep was not an option so she grabbed her tablet and hopped on google where she found herself searching for jobs and instantly got discouraged. Most of the jobs required a degree of some sort, which was something she didn’t have. About an hour into her search, she found a few entry level jobs for call centers and she filled out the applications online. When she was finished filling out her last application, she put her tablet away feeling good about herself. That was the first time in her life that she searched for a job or applied for one. Trying to find a man that would take care of her was a job within itself and even though Manny was giving her money every month, Baylynn felt that it was time to start providing for herself. With the new year right around the corner, it was the perfect time for a new beginning.
As she tried to get comfortable in her bed, her phone beeped indicating that she had a message on Facebook. Grabbing her phone off the nightstand and checking her phone, she had a message from a Tamia Mitchell. Baylynn instantly went to her profile and it was the same girl that was in the picture with Cashmere. She went back to the message and read it.
Hello Baylynn. I know you don’t know me but my father, Charles Mitchell, informed me about you and confirmed that you are his daughter, which makes us sisters. I know it may take some time for you to respond to this message but I would like to meet with you so we can get to know each other. I hope to hear from you soon.
Baylynn covered her mouth with her hand as she gazed at the message. She didn’t know how to feel or what to think at that moment. She felt like someone was trying to prank her because there was no way in hell that she could be related to the mother of Ramsey’s baby. The woman that her ex had been cheating on her with for three years and was still riding with him. She suddenly felt sick to her stomach as the reality of the situation started to sink in. Out of all the chicks that she could have been related to, she couldn’t believe that she was related to the bitch that had Ramsey’s heart and child. Not knowing how to feel about her new-found family, Baylynn decided that it was best for her to keep her distance until she sorted out her feelings.

It was a few days after the New Year and Ramsey was hype because he was going to be released the following day. He had sent all of his magazines, letters and pictures home the week before and the officers were on his top more than usual because of his upcoming release. They tore his cell a part looking for any and everything but they came up empty. Ramsey didn’t have any phones, drugs or weapons so he didn’t have any worries. He just wanted the day to be over with so he could get home to his soon to be fiancée.
As he stood in the opening of his cell, he locked eyes with officer Gram and the way she stared at him was different from her usual look of disgust. It was a look of lust and the way she licked and bit her lips was confirmation that she wanted him. Since he called her out, Ramsey didn’t give their conversation a second thought and every time he saw her, he paid her no mind but every time he looked up, her eyes were always on Ramsey.
His cousin approached him with a handshake and Manny looked to see what Ramsey was staring at. When he saw that his cousin was looking at officer Gram, he just shook his head.
“That bitch been fishin’ for ya attention for the past two weeks. What the hell did you do to her?”
“I ain’t do shit to her. I asked her did she want to fuck me or somethin’ because she always give me her stank ass attitude. She told me no and I left it at that.” Ramsey admitted.
“Well, if she didn’t want to fuck you before, she does now.” Manny chuckled.
“Man, fuck her. Anyway, wassup with you?”
“Ain’t shit. Just wanted to holla at you about somethin’ before you leave this hell hole.”
“What’s on ya mind cuz?”
“I just wanted to say that I appreciate you for stickin’ to ya word about not bringin’ harm to Baylynn. I know what she did was unforgiveable, man but thank you for lettin’ her live.”
“I ain’t gonna lie and say that shit was easy to do but you my family and you know how that go.”
“Say no more.”
“What is your situation with Baylynn anyway?”
“At the moment, she’s just my baby mama. I’ve been thinkin’ about havin’ a relationship with her on the outside but I think I need to just co parent with her and keep it pushin’. I can’t seem to shake the shit that she did to you. If she set you up on some bitter shit, what the hell will she do to me if things don’t work out between us? I’m not tryin’ to take any chances with my freedom when I get outta here because if she does some shit like that to me, I’m gonna kill her ass. Baby mama or not.”
“And you know I’ll be the first one to volunteer to help you kill her ass. Hell, I’ll even kill her ass for free.”
They both laughed.
“I know the fam is plannin’ somethin’ big for you tomorrow.” Manny smirked.
“Hell yeah. I talked to them earlier and everythin’ is in motion. I had my mom buy a new house a week before Christmas for me, Cashmere and my shawty out Villanova. That fuckin’ crib look like a damn mansion. I told mom dukes to hire an interior decorator to help pick out the furniture and shit. My welcome home party is going to be there and that when I’m gonna pop the question
to my girl.”
“Well, I be damned. My cuz is actually gonna pop the question.” Manny smiled.
“Yeah. I done put her through so much and she kept her promise to a nigga. Since I stepped into this motherfucka, she’s been there for me and every Sunday, her ass was up with my daughter to see me. She’s always been there for me and I never had to question her loyalty. She’s wifey material and then some. Cashmere deserves a ring on her finger plus the world.”
“I can’t even argue with that shit. Congrats, my nigga. I wish you nothin’ but the best.”
“Thanks, man.”
They chopped it up for a few more minutes before Manny walked off to his own cell. Ramsey walked in his cell and laid down on the bed with his hands folded behind his head as thoughts of the following day crept into his head. He was nervous and anxious about proposing to Cashmere but he was a hundred percent positive that he wanted her to be his wife. He felt bad for not telling her the exact date that he was being released but he didn’t want to spoil the surprise that he knew she was going to love.
Drifting off to sleep for a few hours, Ramsey felt someone shaking him awake and calling his name. When he was fully awake, he noticed that it was one of the nurses and she told him to be quiet and follow her. Ramsey was confused like a motherfucker but he didn’t protest. He just did as he was told. He followed the nurse to an isolated area of the jail that looked unused. The nurse flipped the light to one of the rooms and instructed him to wait there. The room had a desk and a chair. Ramsey felt like some bullshit was about to happen so he prepared himself for whatever was about to happen.
A few minutes later, he was shocked when officer Gram walked in the room with her shirt unbuttoned and a towel in her hand. Ramsey’s dick instantly started to grow in his pants but his reaction was the opposite.
“You were right, Ramsey.” She took her shirt off. “I do want you to fuck me. I’ve been thinking about what you said to me and the way read my ass like a book turned me the fuck on. I know you’re going home tomorrow but I just want to see what the dick is like before you go.” She walked over to him and slowly stroked his dick.
“Naw, I’m good.” He pushed her hand away and tried to walk out.
“Come on, Ramsey. Don’t be like that.” She pulled on his shirt. “I promise I won’t say anything. All I’m asking for his one time. Please.”
Ramsey turned around to face her and she smiled at him seductively. Unbuttoning his pants, she pulled them down to his ankles along with his boxers, dropped to her knees and swallowed him whole.
“Shit!” he hissed.”
Ramsey watched her as she deep throat his dick. It had been a while since he had some head or pussy and the warmth of officer Grams mouth felt so fucking good. He felt himself about to bust a few minutes after she started and before he could, he lifted her to her feet and turned her around. She pulled her pants and underwear down and Ramsey inserted his dick into her wet box. Moaning as he pushed himself deep inside her wetness, he gripped her hips as he began to bang her back out.
“Yeesss Ramsey! Oh God!”
He made her arch her back as he grabbed the back of her neck keeping one hand on her waist. Her moans grew louder as she reached her climax minutes later. As he continued to pound away at her pussy, Ramsey was so caught up in the moment that instead of pulling out like he had planned, he exploded inside of her. Picking the towel up from the floor, he wiped his dick off before she cleaned herself of and when they were fully dressed, the same nurse that escorted him there walked him back to his cell.
As he replayed what he just did, he cursed himself when he realized that he didn’t wear a rubber. The pussy that he had received from officer was good but that was only a one time thing for him. He vowed to himself that that would be his last unfaithful act and that he was going to be honest and faithful moving forward. That was the first time in his life that he felt bad for fucking around on the woman he loved but he wasn’t going to let the guilt get the best of him. He was going to treat the situation like Vegas. What happened in prison, stayed in prison and when he walked out of those doors, he would be walking out to a new beginning.
At eight on the nose, Ramsey’s name was being called by Isiah and he walked him to the office where the superintendent began the process for his release. When he was finished, the c/o handed him his belongings and he quickly changed his clothes. The tucked the rest of his belongings in his pocket. Isiah escorted him to the main entrance of the jail and Ramsey gave him a pound before walking out the front door. The cold air smacked him in the face but he was unbothered by it. He took a deep breath, inhaling the fresh air and seconds later, he saw a black stretch Cadillac Escalade drive up and parked in front of him. The back door opened and his brother and Nick hopped out. Ramsey couldn’t do nothing back shake his head and smile at the sight of his boys. Greeting them both with handshakes and hugs, they got in the car and driver drove off.
“I see ain’t much change with you, my nigga.” Nick spoke up. “How you feel?”
“Man, I’m glad to be up out that motherfucka. That shit wasn’t that bad because I wasn’t in there that long but I don’t never wanna go the fuck back.” He chuckled.
“I hear that, bro. Shit ain’t been the same without you but now that you’re home, bigger and better things are about to happen.”
“No doubt. Is everythin’ set up for tonight?”
“Hell yeah. Mom dukes is at the crib now cookin’ the food, Ryan and Tiffany are pickin’ up the ring and Tamia dropped the cake off before she went to go see Cashmere.” Randall confirmed.
“Does Cash know what’s goin’ on?”
“Not a thing but she’s mad as hell that she hasn’t heard from you in couple of days.”
“I’ll make up for that shit tonight.” He smiled.
“Aye. Wassup with that chick Tamia? She bad as fuck.” Nick inquired.
“She’s Cash’s sister and I think she’s single.” Randall answered.
“I might need to get at her. She was lookin’ good as shit when she stopped by the house earlier.”
Ramsey shook his head at his homie and his love for females.
“What happened to the chick you were fuckin’ with that gave you those pictures?” Ramsey quizzed.
“I haven’t talked to her in a while. The last time I reached out to her was when I was tryin’ to find Baylynn for you. The chick I was talkin’ to was Baylynn’s best friend, Amelia.”
“Aww shit.” The twins said in unison.
“I was only fuckin’ with her to get info out of her. That’s all. It wasn’t nothin’ serious.” Nick held his hands up.
They laughed and talked shit to each other the entire ride to Ramsey’s new crib. He couldn’t wait to see the people he loved most. He was excited about the evenings events and was ready to welcome his new life with open arms.

Cashmere walked out of the doctor’s office with a smile on her face. Her doctor informed her that the baby was very healthy and gave her a few ultrasound pictures to take with her. The doctor offered to reveal the sex of the baby but she declined. She wanted to wait until Ramsey came home to find out what they were having. Cashmere hated that she had to go to her doctor appointments alone but she hoped that he came home soon so she wouldn’t have to go to the next one alone.
She got in her car and pulled her cell phone out of her purse before plugging her headphones in. Placing the earphones in her ear, she called Tamia as she started the car and pulled off. Seconds later, she answered.
“Hey sis. What you doing?”
“I just left the doctor’s office. I’m on my way home now. I was calling to see if you wanted to go to a party with me that Renee invited me to a couple of days ago.”
“I would love to go. What time should I be ready?”
“The party starts at seven and it takes over an hour to get to the location. So be here by five.”
“No problem. See you then.”
Cashmere tried to
FaceTime Ryan who had picked up her daughter earlier that day. She wanted to check on Cassi and to see if she needed to bring anything to the party but she didn’t answer. She sent a text saying that Cassi was fine and she’ll see her soon. She had a feeling that something was going on but she knew if she asked any questions that she wouldn’t get any answers. So, she just left it alone.
Minutes later, she parked in the parking lot of her apartment and noticed that her sister was already there. She walked inside taking the elevator to her floor and unlocked the front door. When she walked in, she instantly spotted the shopping bags on the couch and she didn’t hesitate to look through them. Pulling out the dress, heels and jewelry, Cashmere nodded her head in approval of the outfit Tamia picked out for herself.
“Hey sis. How do you like the outfit I picked out for you?” Tamia beamed as she came from the back.
“Me? I thought this was for you.”
“No girl. I have my outfit. I bought that for you. Now, hurry and get dressed.”
Cashmere dropped her things on the couch and hurried to bathroom to freshen up. When she finished minutes later, she put on her undergarments and Tamia helped her with her dress, hair and makeup. Admiring herself in the full-length mirror, the teal color body-con maternity dress was sleeveless and stopped above her knee. She ran her hand over her medium size baby bump. The matching color ankle booties and the rose gold hoop earrings, necklace and bracelet set complimented her dress perfectly. Her hair was in loose curls and her makeup was flawless. Tamia stood next to her in the mirror in an all-black short sleeve mini dress and with red ankle booties with silver jewelry.
After snapping a few selfies and posting them on their social media sites, they grabbed their coats and purses before heading out the door. Unlocking the doors to her, they hopped inside and Cashmere brought the car to life while Tamia typed the address in her GPS. They danced to the song that came on the radio. Cashmere knew by the way that she was dressed that there was something more in store for the evening ahead but she couldn’t figure out what it was for the life of her.
