Chapter 24

2 Years Later

Bri laid on her bed watching TV. This is what her summer mostly consisted of. Her watching TV as the days went by. Shawn was at work, Beyoncé decided to teach summer school, Bry was at basketball camp and Blue was at Ms. Tina's.

Bri rolled over and groaned as she looked at the ceiling. Her cellphone went off.

"Babe, open the door."

"What? No, you know I can't have company." She said rolling back over.

"You act like I'm going in your room or something. We gonna shoot some hoops." He said.

"Then let's go to the park." She suggested.

"Your daddy damn near built you a court in the backyard. Come open the door."

Bri sighed.

"Fine." She said and hung up.

Bri walked out of her room and down the stairs. She went to the door and there Jamal stood.

"'Bout time had a nigga standing out in the sun." He said walking in.

Bri turned around and Jamal closed the door behind him. He grabbed her from behind as they walked.

"Where your shirt?" He asked.

"You was rushing me I didn't have time to put one on." She said.

"Hot pink sports bra looks good on you." He said and kissed her cheek.

She laughed.

"I bet." She said. "But sit down I'll be back."

"I gotta use the bathroom." He said.

"You know where it is. I'll be back." She said and went up the steps.

Bri went in her room and got a white t-shirt and picked some KD's to wear. She was putting her hair in a ponytail when her door opened.

Bri looked.

"Hey ma." Bri said a bit nervously. "What you doing here?"

"I live here." Beyoncé said.

"I mean early, you're early." Bri said.

Beyoncé shrugged.

"Wasn't feeling that great. Where you going?" Beyoncé asked.

"Play ball."

"Up the street?" 

"Yeah, yeah up the street." Bri said smiling.

Beyoncé eyed her.

"Aight, I'm going to take a nap before I have to get your brother and sister." She said.

"Okay, you do that." Bri said. "I'll be back."

Beyoncé eyed her again and then went towards her room. Bri went downstairs in a rush. She went towards the bathroom and Jamal came out.

"Aye, you gotta go outside and ring the doorbell like you weren't already in here." Bri said.

"What?"

"My mom home, just do it." She said.

They both walked to the front door and opened it.

"Daddy!" Bri said.

"Hey." He said walking in. "Y'all bout to shoot some hoops?"

"Yeah, we decided to go to the park." Bri said.
