Chapter 38: Prince Of The City

The girls snickered just as Mikey and Tony came to see about them. Hopefully they'd drag them off somewhere so they could stay the hell outta my business. I should've known better.

"You are my darling son, but you're also a man, tsk, tsk, tsk, and after all my hard work."

"What, you tried to turn me into a girl or some shit?" I was confused.

"No dear, but I did try to instill some sense into you, you know, so things like this didn't happen. All those lessons down the drain. You're locking your future wife away in closets, threatening her with all manner of things and now this. No candlelight Shane, not even a flower?" She shook her head like I was an imbecile.

"Ma, Mouth doesn't need that shit..."

"And her name is Arianna." Mouth poked her tongue out at me. Cute.

"Ma I love ya, but you have no idea what's going on here trust me. As for me telling her I love her over the phone at least I said it, that should be good enough."
