Maisie didn't know what to do. Her mind was running wild. She didn't know weather to tell her mum. She didn't know weather to accept his offer. She just wanted a hug.
Tula was still stood behind the door in the hallway. She wiped her face and redid her makeup in the hallway mirror. She walked into the kitchen where Maisie was sat.
"You alright Maisie? What did Uncle Dappy want?" Tula asked trying to sound genuine. She already knew the answer.
"Um, I don't know how to tell you, I really don't know," Maisie replied softly.
"Maisie, you don't have to. I heard everything and i want you to know that i'll support you, whatever your decision," Tula said whilst sitting down next to Maisie.
Tula and Maisie sat there in silence. A few minutes passed before Maisie picked up the courage to speak.
"Mum," She paused for a minute, "I'm sorry, I love you so much".
"Babe, I know you do. You know I just want the best for you, I want you to do well in school 'cos I never did," Tula reponded.
"What would you do mum? What happened the day Uncle B turned up at your door?" Maisie asked.
Tula stopped. She'd never thought about that say since Uncle B had passed. She shut her eyes and could see Uncle B stood there offering her money. She opened her eyes slowly and tears started to stroll down her cheeks. She started to speak, slowly and softly.
"I've never thought about that day. I guess it's just hard for me, so i'm sorry for crying. Anyway, that day. I'd had the most rubbish day at school you could possible imagine. This one girl, called Lauren, kept saying things to me. Telling me that i was rubbish, that i wouldn't amount to anything. I got home and told my mum i was never going to school again; a bit like you eh Maze". Tula hugged Maisie then continued to speak. "It got to about 5 o'clock and Uncle B knocked on the door. I answered the door and he asked me to join Uncle Dappy and Uncle Fazer's band. I refused, i was determined that i'd become a solo artist. He then offered me £20 to join the band as he knew how much it meant to his son. I refused the money telling him that i'm going solo. He then offered me £50. I hadn't seen a £50 note before. He said that was his final offer. He begged me to join the band. I saw the hurt in his eyes. I saw the need he had; he wanted his son to make it. He wanted his son to do better than he did. So, I accepted the money. He gave me the biggest hug ever."
Tula stopped. There was silence. Maisie was crying. Tula was crying. Tula suddenly started to sing; Papa.
" You said despite all the stress, you have to fight to the death, coz little girl you're a star, Don't let them kill who you are....."
Maisie began to sing the next lines. Tula stopped to listen to her daughter.
"You see you gave me a chance, and now look where i am, you are the reason. I can't wait to see you again..."
Maisie stopped.
"You have a beautiful voice Mase," Tula said whilst wiping her eyes.
"Thanks mum, I guess i get it from you," Maisie answered smiling.
A few moments passed.
"Mum," Maisie paused, "I think i've made my decision. I need to go contact Uncle Daps."
"Ok babe, I'm here for you, and don't forget that muffin!" Tula replied with a huge smile on her face.
Tula sat there alone whilst Maisie went upstairs. She thought about her conversation with Maisie. She thought about Uncle B. She missed him so much. She missed doing music. She missed the fights, laughs and drama with the boys. She missed N-Dubz.
What will Maisie decide to do? Will there be a new Ndubz? Who knows? What we do know is there's an endless amount of love for Uncle B.
