Jordan stretched her body in her bed, as she woke up. She yawned as she sat up. She got up and walked in the bathroom. She turned on her bathroom light and stared in the mirror. She let out a small scream, as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. Her face was swollen, and her eyes were low.

"Jessica!" She yelled for her sister. Then she remember her sister was still with that Hakeem guy. Jordan quickly turned on the shower and removed her clothes as she stepped in the bathtub to wash her body in a quickness. She need to get to the hospital, something must have bite her in her sleep.

After her shower, she quickly got dressed. She continue doing all her morning hygiene quickly.  She grabbed her car keys and walked outside. She didn't even close her door all the way. She got in her car, and speed off. As she got near the hospital, she remember she needed to turn her contract back in to Rakeem. She silently cursed her face as she parked her car in the parking lot of the hospital.

She signed in and waited for her name to be called. Her phone ringed in her hand. It was Jessica.

"Hello." Jordan said into the phone.

"Where are you?" Jessica asked her.

"At the hospital, my face is swollen and I can barely see." Jordan said.

"Oh my gosh! Which hospital?" Jessica asked.

"Lexington." Jordan said. She hung up when Jessica said she's on her way.

She knew her sister was about to be over the top dramatic, but that's just Jessica.

Jordan name was called, as she went to get her temperature checked and the nurse asked her what was wrong with her, before checking her blood pressure. After the nurse was done she told Jordan to go back in the waiting room until her name was called. When Jordan walked back in the waiting room, not only was her sister there. Hakeem was there too, with a baby. Jordan went to sit by them.

"Cute baby." Jordan said to Hakeem once she greeted them.

"Thank you." Hakeem said.

"How old is she?" Jordan asked as the little girl sat in a chair with a book in her.

"One going on twenty-one." Hakeem said.

"Don't do Ro like that, she's a good baby." Jessica said. Hakeem just shrugged.

"So why are you here Hakeem?" Jordan asked Hakeem. She already had a feeling.

"Your sister ass, calling me once she got to the apartment, saying your car wasn't home, and the door was slightly open. She was scared to go in, so I had to come with my gun. You know just in case I had to shoot a nigga." Hakeem said.

Jessica mouthed dropped open.

"Okay see you lying, I said the door was slightly open, I never said I was scared." Jessica rolled her eyes at him.

"Well, you been screaming like someone was in the house." Hakeem said as he open some apple slices for Roslyn.

"Whatever, you always doing me, but Jordan why was the door open anyway?" Jessica asked Jordan.

"I must have didn't close it all the way when I rushed out the house." Jordan said. Roslyn offered Jordan some apples, but Jordan declined.

"She's a nice little baby, at least you teaching her some manners." Jordan smiled at Roslyn.

"Yeah, her father teaching her early." Hakeem said as he looked at Roslyn.

"Oh so you not her father?" Jordan asked him.

"Girl hell no, I'm too fine to be somebody father. I'm loving this single life." Hakeem said.

"Jordan Daniels?" Jordan heard her name being called, as she walked to the back with the man who called her name. Letting her sister know she will be back.

"Hello, what brought you here today?" He asked her.

"My face." Jordan said in a "duh" like tone.

"I see, it looks like a spider bite, it looks like whatever spider bite you. You are allergic to it. It swell your face up pretty bad. I'm going to give you a shot, and it going to help with the swelling, but also you should spray out your place, before you get another bite." The doctor said.

Jordan nodded. It was time she do some house cleaning. 

"Thank you." Jordan said, as the doctor left out, to get the needle for the shot. Jordan sighed as she looked at her phone, she had a text from Paris. Asking did she want to go out for drinks. She replied no, and that she was at the hospital, and that a spider had bite her.

Then her cell phone ring.

"Yes Paris?" Jordan answered the phone.

"Don't tell me that raggedy ass apartment, has spiders now?" Paris asked her.

"Girl I  don't know, it was just one that bite me, but the way, my face looking, it look like at least ten attack my face once." Jordan said.

"Well damn, see that's why you need a man to care for you. Can rub your pumpkin face, and just cater to you." Paris said, and Jordan rolled her eyes at the phone.

"Bye Paris, the doctor just walked in." Jordan lied. She was tired of the talks from people about her needing a man. No she don't, she was perfectly fine without one.

"Where are you with my daughter?" Rakeem asked Hakeem as he was packing up to leave the office for the day. He was on the phone with him. Hakeem was babysitting today for him, since his mother wasn't feeling too good.

"I'm at the hospital." Hakeem said, munching on some chips in Rakeem ear.

"The hospital! Is everything okay? How is Ro? Who hurt?!" Rakeem heart stopped.

"Man everything good, Jessica sister face swelled up like a pumpkin and we waiting to see what wrong with her." Hakeem said back.

Rakeem thought Jordan forgot all about their meeting they supposed to have today. He glad that wasn't the case at all.

"Oh, well do you need me to come get Ro?" Rakeem asked as he walked out his office. Everybody was out the office for today. Only Rakeem was there. Since no one had any appointments for the day, he just sent everybody home. He stayed behind thinking Jordan would have showed up. Now he knew why she didn't.

"I mean if you want too. She no trouble, so you can go ahead on home, and I'll drop her off, on the way to mama house." Hakeem said.

"Okay, well I'll see you later." Rakeem said as he walked to his car after he locked up his building. Guess he will go out to eat by his lonely self. He hated not having a relationship with someone. He always liked to wine and dine a female, Whitney didn't mess him up for loving another female or giving his heart to someone. He just was scared that someone will do the same thing to him that Whitney did, he don't think he could take it. He probably would snap worst then what he did that night.

Rakeem ending up at Buffalo Wild Wings at the bar, eating buffalo chicken bites and drinking him a beer, when he heard laughing behind him. He turned around and saw Whitney with a man. He shook his head. Some things never change. He turned back around as he heard more laughter.

"Stop give me her." He heard. That sounded like Jordan sister voice. With her loud ass mouth.

"She don't want you. Watch, Roslyn do you want her?" He heard Hakeem asked Roslyn. He turned around just in time to see Roslyn reached for Jessica.

"Haha, told you. Come here baby girl." Jessica said.

"Oh look there go her daddy. Why you here by yourself?" Hakeem asked Rakeem.

"I'm just eating." Rakeem said.

"Really Rock, you have some bitch holding my daughter now!" Rakeem heard.

"Hold up one minute. Who she calling a bihh though?" Jessica looked around as Roslyn hold her tight and look at her mother.

"I'm calling you a bitch, you need to let go my daughter, before I beat your ass in this restaurant." Whitney got in Jessica face. Roslyn hold tighter to Jessica as she cried.

"See you so pathetic. You scaring your daughter, you dummy. I'll catch you in the streets though, watch your back. You muffin head bihh." Jessica said as she hand Hakeem the baby.

"Bitch you see me now! What's up though?" Whitney hold her arms out. People in the restaurant just stared at her, as Jessica just stared too.

"Ma'am I'm going to have to ask you to leave." The manager said to Whitney.

"Really, so y'all going to just kick me out, and not this ugly curly head bitch?" Whitney glared at Jessica.

"She's not the one yelling and carrying on, like you are. So leave or I will call the police on you." The manager said in a calm voice.

Rakeem shook his head at Whitney, as Roslyn buried her face in Hakeem chest.

"Rakeem, you and that bitch going to get it!" Whitney yelled out as her and the man left out the restaurant.

"Wow and that's your baby mother? I feel so sorry for Ro." Jessica said as she sat down next to Hakeem.

"Well it's a good thing you didn't follow her up. I just lost my appetite." Rakeem said.

The manager walked up to them.

"I deeply apologize to you all that was really uncalled for, is there anything I can get you all?" The manager asked them.

"I would like what he have with mozzarella sticks please." Jessica said.

"I'll have the same." Hakeem said.

"Just get me a to-go box." Rakeem said.

The manager nodded.

"And for the little one?" She asked.

"Fries please." Rakeem said. He was so disappointed in Whitney. He never thought she would act that way in public like that. He was impressed with Jessica though, how she didn't let Whitney words get to her.

The manager walked away.

"You going back to Rock house with me? Or you going back to your sister apartment?" Hakeem asked Jessica.

"My sissy apartment to check on her, and then I'll be there later tonight." Jessica said.

"Cool." Hakeem nodded.

Rakeem shook his head. He was sick of both of them, they so touchy feeling. Always touching on each other.

The manager came back twenty minutes later with their stuff, and apologized again. They all walked out.

"I'll see you later." Hakeem said to Jessica, as he gave her hug. Jessica waved and got in her car.

"But you single though, okay." Rakeem laughed.

Hakeem rolled his eyes.

"I am." Hakeem said.

"Whatever." Rakeem said as he took Roslyn from Hakeem and walked to his car.

He had a good mind to go see about Jordan, but he didn't know where she stay. Hopefully he hear from her tomorrow.
