If I Can't (2023)

[bunniefuu]

Life is funny, you know.

One minute, you have

everything you ever wanted to know.

And the next,

the next is all gone.

Guess you got to count your blessings while you can.

Oh my God, baby.

Your baby is so cute.

Thank you.

How does it feel to be a new mom?

Oh my God girl, weird. Okay?
So weird.

Hi baby.

These still your favorite?

Or you're gonna switch up on since you're baby mama now?

Come on, now you know I would never switch up on you.

See that's how we got that first one there.

Now wait a minute, Momma, didn't you say you

want a house full of grandchildren running around?

Where would you get shit like that?

That skin to skin really do work.

At least that works, I can't fit my jeans no more, Emory.

I look terrible. - You look just fine to me.

Oh, okay.

You know, I'm just one cheeseburger away

from being a fat bitch.

I know that, you're lying.

What?

It's a good thing, you married somebody

who loves cheeseburgers

and will buy you all new clothes.

You cannot afford to buy me new clothes.

We can barely afford clothes for that baby.

Well, your baby daddy got that promotion at work.

Yep, you know what that means?

What?

More money,

insurance, and more time to spend with y'all.

Always say you think you will.

That's why I'mma get you whatever you want

because you believed in me.

Just watch.

I love you, Emory.

I love you too.

I just put her down there.

Oh, okay.

How was work, papa?

Work was work.

How's the most beautiful girl in the world?

I'm better now that my king is home.

Come here.

Oh baby.

I should be the one doing this to you, Emory.

You're the one that worked 10 hours today.

Yeah but,

y'know, I gotta take care of my queen

I appreciate you.

Come on.

Did y'all go with that lovey dovey bullshit?

Mama.

Go to grannies, baby.

Mama, I just came to sleep.

And I just walked in the door, so we gonna wake him up.

Now did you find my blazer?

No, ma, and I tore the house up looking for it.

Well, I wanted to wear it to Bishop's dinner tonight.

Emory, can you help her find it?

Now, what's in all these boxes?

All the stuff that I can't fit any more,

thanks to him, and him.

I told you get rid of some clothes

not pile them all in the front room.

I mean, this look crazy.

Oh mama, speaking to that.

You think you can watch the baby

while we go drop this off at the Salvation Army?

Of course, I can.

Yes, I care for you baby-

How did you know

I don't wanna get out of the house with you?

No, my bad, thought she was a rider.

So, the wheels fall off?

Don't play with me.

Loving this little baby weight.

You stay this size, Emmy gonna have another sibling

in no time.

Touch that door, c'mon now.

You know better than that.

All right.

But anyway, where we going, babe?

you do realize we passed two thrift stores back there.

Yeah, I figure we go to one on Whitworth, you know.

That way we can drive past your dream house.

But you do realize it's Sunday, right?

And then people are probably off.

Why we goin' by stalking them?

Only people that work on Sunday is this your fine

hard-working ass.

Babe, f*ck them people.

f*ck them people dead.

You okay?

Baby, you do not understand. Ever since

I was a little girl, I've always wanted to live in this house.

You see my Pops? He would take us to all the bigshots

of Motown's houses. I'm talking Berry Gordy,

the boss, Diana Ross, Marvin Gaye, but this boy?

Baby, this was my one.

So, he's a bad m*therf*cker?

Shit, I'm as cold as you.

Y'know, I really don't feel alright going in here with this

work clothes on.

Boy, you know we can't afford this damn house.

Y'know, c'mon.

What's so funny?

Oh, nothing.

Will you at least better act like you can afford

the m*therf*cker?

Good afternoon handsome, I thought that was you!

Hey, you must have me confused with somebody else,

but nice to meet you. This is my wife, Harlem.

Hi.

Miss?

Miss Ford.

Harlem, wow that is such a unique name,

and you're?

Emory, Emory Jiles

Emory and Harlem Jiles. Okay, well please help yourself to

hors d'oeuvres as you view. This property is listed

at $390,000 firm but it's 5 bedrooms,

6 bathrooms, state of the arts, everything.

There's an entertainment basement of course, considering it was

once owned by the late great, Marvin Gaye. I mean

quite frankly, it is the perfect dream home.

Oh my God, you don't have to tell me. I've been obsessed

in this house since I was a little girl.

Well, okay, excuse me.

Come on, chill. Let's go see your dream house.

So, what you think?

About the house?

Oh my God, I love it.

I hope we own this m*therf*cker.

I will f*ck you in every single room.

Oh, why can't we just pretend like we own it now.

Wait, let me handle this. Hello?

Hold on, hold on, one second.

Aye watch it, base now- basement, go to the rest of the house.

I'll be right back, alright?

Hello?

Yeah?

Where the f*ck is my husband?

Excuse me?

Bitch, where the f*ck is my husband? I see him

come down here with you.

But this stairs lead upstairs. I'm sure he is-

Girl, don't put your f*cking hands on me.

Brooklyn.

Brooklyn?

Bitch, if you don't shut the f*ck up. And

where the f*ck is Emory?

Emory, what the f*ck is going on?

Suprise!

Suprise, my ass. You and that bitch

disclosedme, f*cking both y'all up.

And... what is this?

Open this.

f*ck is this? And who you been on the phone with?

Girl, that was your mama and shit.

Wait a minute.

Is this what I think it is?

You know how hard it was keeping

this shit secret from you?

Is this what I think it is?

Oh my god baby, today is the best.

Surprise!

Congratulations.

This is the most romantic closing day I've ever had.

Oh my god.

What up, tho' Cuzo?

For the hundredth time,

if we are not related

Yes, we are.

through marriage.

Speaking of, where's my wife?

She upstairs.

The baby isn't feeling well still, so she asked me

to bring the thermometer and the breathing treatment,

but she's trying to put him to sleep. So, maybe I can

congratulate you on this beautiful house.

I know you heard the streets on how fire my head game is.

Look ain't shit up, Channa.

You need to have some respect for my wife in her

m*therf*cking house.

Appreciate you bringing the machine and shit in here.

This ain't enough.

Especially, since I know your little secret.

Biggie.

What you're not gonna do is extort me.

So look,

I'll give you a extra 40 because we both know

that's what your ass used to.

You can get your snake ass to f*ck up out my house.

Damn.

Shit.

Oh, there she go.

There she is.

So I left the baby to sleep.

And that Stephen is down.

That means we got approximately 36 minutes.

Oh?

36 minutes.

Instead of seconds.

So christen this new house

And celebrate

6 weeks, postpartum. So take this off.

Is that 6 weeks?

Ah, shit.

Mmh

Give me a drink.

Thank you.

There is something I need to tell you.

One of the not my coins and my coochie you can

tell me anything, Emory.

Harlem, I'm serious.

I ain't be telling you the truth.

Are you serious, huh?

Damn it, Emory.

Okay, look. Right now, I'm in this perfect house

and my perfect husband and I just have the perfect man.

How about you say all that, what's the matter?

Guess that's fair.

I want a break.

So I'll just tell you tomorrow.

Emory, what the f*ck?

Whatever you want, furniture, clothes, whatever.

Emory, where did you get all this money from?

Emory, where did you get all this money from?

No, I got it baby.

Shit, my bad. I'm trying to remember is it Tylenol that

You know, send these folks some thank you cards.

It's the classy thing to do Har.

And maybe you can wash your hair.

You know, maybe your cousin can help you

do your hair like she used to do when you guys were kids.

Here.

At least, think about it Har.

Mama, can you take her?

Come on granny, baby.

Emory Grey, shut up!

Look, it's gonna all make sense one day.

Until then, just slow down, baby mama.

And enjoy the ride. Most of all...

don't blame this little one right here.

I need you to do me one more thing.

Wake up.

Wake up. Wake up.

Harlem, look who's here all the way from Grand Rapids.

Come here.

Now Harlem, we gon' cut the cake in a minute.

Y'all can go ahead Mama.

Have we switched places? You look like me trying to sneak

a square on the side of the house back when we was in the

high school. Give me that.

What is you doing with it?

Oh my God, look at Lolo, looking all grown

and fancy. What are you doing over here?

Bitch, I ain't see you since your mama moved.

Girl, your mama called and invited me. But look at you.

Bitch, I could not believe you have a whole baby.

Shit, me either.

Look though, I really been trying to get over here to come and

see you but them hoes at that shop.

Bitch, they keep me busy as hell. Okay?

Okay, you working at this shop. I see you.

You always said you wanted to do hair and shit.

Girl, I don't work at a shop. Bitch, I own that m*therf*cker.

Okay?

Okay. Stunt on me then, I know your mama proud as hell.

How she been?

Girl, she good, still crazy as hell. Mad as hell cause I like-

p*ssy but that ain't her business anyway.

Oh no bitch, don't look at me like that.

You not even my type, bitch. I like studs and plus

the b*tches I f*ck with, keep their hair done.

Okay, I see you still got f*cking jokes. I see you.

No, for real though, we gotta do better as friends and we gon'

start there.

Yeah, we do gotta do better man.

Well, Imma slide. I don't do the kids. I just came over

to check on my old bestie poo.

Aw, thanks for stopping by Lolo.

You know what, what are you doing tomorrow?

My shop usually closed on Mondays but I want you to come in so

I can do your hair.

I don't know.

Don't think too hard on this, my treat. Look I got my card.

Look, the shop address is on my card, that is my personal

number. Call me for anything, okay?

I see you at 1 o'clock tomorrow.

One it is.

Alright.

See you, Lo.

Is that gospel music?

Yes. Oh, for your state of grief. Too much?

Yes

Yes, yes you are right.

Oh, we should pray. Yes, let's pray.

No, the f*ck we should not pray.

Oh God, thank God yes. I didn't even have

a prayer on deck. I mean, I don't even know how to pray.

It's like, "hey God," and it's like, "dear God," it's like

writing a letter, which is like.

Can we just get this over with.

Yes, yes, come on.

Wait,

Well, you are officially $400,000 richer.

Emory would want you and your child to, you know,

have a cushion to fall back on.

What would he know?

I'm all set.

Yup, that's it.

Guess I'm out.

Hey, call me. We'll do brunch.

Yeah, no.

Can I see your ID?

Sure.

Here you go.

Miss Giles?

Mrs. Jiles.

Mrs. Jiles, you currently don't have an account with us.

No.

In other words, it will take about 6 to 10 business days

to clear for a deposit. Even if it's drawn

through our institution.

That's cool,

I actually have another one as well.

Girl, this one bigger than the last one?

Unfortunately, I'm gonna need my manager. Can you sit tight?

Do you mean it's closed?

Yeah.

Of course, it's f*cking closed, like the f*ck I said.

Everything is f*cking closed on a Monday.

Take me the f*ck home now, Scott!

I mean, looking dumb as f*ck.

Crazy as hell.

You know that shit will k*ll you right?

But, you are sexy for all that.

C'mon, lemme hear you, lemme hear the shit, come on.

I want my hair done.

Oh my God, friend.

I am so sorry, I'm late like this.

Bitch, we got so f*cked up last night. Come on.

Look,

I appreciate the offer but I just came to let you know-

I can't get no bread out the banks, so I can't afford to

get my hair done right now.

Girl, sit your ass down. Ain't nobody say nothing about your-

funky ass money. Now, what are we doing? Come on.

Cause you need it. 'Bout to work a miracle. Cause I don't know

what you been doing.

Girl, that ain't nobody but Scott.

But, that fine m*therf*cker right there?

Bitch, that's the weed man. Everybody know him.

Lemme buzz him in and see what he want.

No.

Come on, Lo. Look, I need you to do me a favor.

Look, can you curl up baby girl hair for me, please?

So, what was she gonna get done?

To your hair. What was she gonna do to your hair?

Shit. I don't know. Whatever she want, I guess.

I'm not really into all that.

It's good, cause you don't need it.

They're extras.

You don't need all that extra shit.

Thank you, I guess.

I can't take that.

Why?

Got a boyfriend or something?

Oh, shit.

So what do they call you Harlem?

My daddy named me that, that's where he grew up.

And when he with my mama, they took a trip there and that's

where they fell in love.

They called their old school summertime Harlem love.

Well, shit it's summertime now.

Listen to this old-school shit.

Maybe we could have the same love they had too.

Maybe.

So what they call you? Rock?

Scott to m*therf*cking Rock.

First of all,

it's cause a n*gga had to hustle.

A n*gga used to sell rocks.

That's all I have really knew.

Secondly,

It's these m*therf*cking hands.

Yeah. n*gga from HP, Harlem Park.

And you know that's the m*therf*cker right there,

It is?

The m*therf*ckers used to test a n*gga and I used

to knock out every m*therf*cker who tried.

You don't even look like the type of n*gga

who would fight.

That's what they thought.

And now I'm Scott to m*therf*cking Rock.

I guess.

I would ask you if you grab me up, but we both know you

ain't that type of girl. So,

I'mma let you live for now.

You're gonna let me live for now?

Yeah.

I'll see you around, Har.

500$ on her hair. First of all, I am sick of her running.

She might be telling the truth, friend. I got a home girl in

Atlanta. She made a million dollars selling hair last year.

Bitch is about to be off to beauty supply.

They on this new wave called bundles.

A million dollars? - Yes, ma'am. But you gotta have some coins

saved up to buy the hair from a vendor.

You're Harlem.

Okay.

That n*gga really was lucky.

No, we both was lucky.

I mean, no sh**t. Lucky.

Why you stop riding for the n*gga, huh?

Yeah, I had no choice.

Some thug blew his brains out right infront of me.

Point blank.

Baby, I'm sorry to hear that.

Where was that at?

Right in this hood,

Okay, then.

You know you mine right?

First step is we gotta get you out your mama crib.

Get you a spot by yourself,

That's him.

Shit, that's beautiful baby. You got your little family, huh.

Somethin' like that.

She'll make us a little girl you know?

She'll have eyes like your mama.

And hair like her daddy.

Don't you think you're moving a little it too fast, Harlem?

I mean how well do you even know this boy?

I have been dating him for months actually.

Okay, so have you met his family?

You know, worked on the same bag.

But the n*gga wanted out.

Thinking he was smarter than anybody else.

That's when he got his ass blown.

Bitch, I'm trynna get my family back.

Don't nobody give a f*ck about you or your pathetic

ass family. The only reason why I'm over here is because

I think something wrong with Shayna.

Now, we were supposed to go out two nights ago.

She didn't show up.

I went to her house to go check on her.

Saw the car, but when I went to go knock on the door nobody

came to the door.

Now, I'm over here to talk to Harlem because Harlem her family.

And she the only person who could do a wellness check.

Look.

Ain't nothing wrong with that bitch.

She probably out doin what hoes do.

But either way it go, Lolo, you gotta get the f*ck on.

I'm about to get my family.

You really one nutty ass n*gga.

don't want you?

Yes, she sure has.

So can I wake her up?

Oh, no you shouldn't

Don't worry now.

You right.

Ms. Cheryl, I just came here to talk to you and Harlem.

I think something going on with Shayna, she gotta be in

trouble, because two days ago we were supposed to go

to a friend party like friends.

So you using those words real loosely.

And Shayna, she been up and running off since she was twelve

years old. My sister couldn't keep a leash on her, so I'm

pretty sure she gonna be just fine.

I guess.

Oh no, I'm sure.

Now Harlem's in the back with her guest.

You are more than welcome to say goodbye on your way out.

Hey.

Now, Scott. You know good and g*dd*mn well you not about to

come up in my house with no g*n on you,

after all of these threats.

I'm sorry, Ms. Cheryl.
