 When Arby Pulls Up While Anthony’s Car Is in Shayla’s Driveway! 🚗💥

"Your spot? Arby, you gave that up the day you stopped showing up!"

Arby (hurt beneath his ego):
"Wow. So that’s what it is now."

Anthony (cool-headed):
"It’s whatever Shayla wants it to be. And clearly, you ain’t it."

Suddenly, a toddler’s voice echoes from the hallway upstairs. Shayla’s baby has waddled to the top of the stairs, looking down innocently.

Baby:
"Uncle Arby?"

The whole room freezes.

Arby (softens for a second):
"Uncle Arby? You been telling him about me?"

Shayla (quietly):
"Yeah... he remembers you. I didn’t want to erase you from his life."

Anthony steps forward and gently picks up the baby.

Anthony (to the child):
"Come on, lil man. Let’s get you something to eat."

Anthony looks up at Arby while holding the child — a subtle power move. Arby stares, conflicted.

Arby (quietly):
"I guess I ain’t part of this picture anymore."

Shayla:
"That’s up to you, Arby. You’ve had chances."

Arby stands for a moment, then slowly nods and walks toward the door.

Arby:
"Take care, Shayla."

Shayla watches him leave, her face a mix of guilt and relief. Anthony returns from the kitchen, handing the baby a toy.

Anthony:
"You okay?"

Shayla (sits down):
"Yeah... Just didn’t think it would go down like this."

Anthony (sits beside her):
"Sometimes closure comes dressed in awkward silence and toddler interruptions."

Shayla (laughs softly):
"You handled that better than I expected."

Anthony (grins):
"I told you. I’m not here for drama. I’m here for you."

They both look at the baby, who’s now happily banging a spoon on the table.

Shayla:
"And him?"

Anthony:
"Especially him. Even if he calling Arby 'uncle'... We’ll fix that later."

They both laugh, the tension finally melting away.

Scene fades out with the sound of a door closing, a baby giggling, and two adults finally finding peace in the chaos.
