Brielle.

I woke up this morning to the smell of bacon cooking. I slowly got out of bed, washed my face & brushed my teeth then grabbed my robe then headed downstairs. I walked into the kitchen & saw my mother & Lyric sitting there eating.

"Good morning honey." My mom spoke.

"Good morning mommy, hey Lyric baby."

"Hi Mama." She spoke taking a spoonful of grits into her mouth.

I sat down at the table & began eating away. Soon my phone rang. It was my best friend.

"Hey Bri, do you want to do something today?" Xoria spoke over the phone.

"Hey Xo girl, if I could, I most definitely would love to. But I have to go back to work today." I spoke with little annoyance in my voice.

"Oh. Do you want to go back, ya know after all of that with Michael."

I took a deep breath. As much as I don't want to, I have to. I have a child to take care of. & I don't want him to feel like he has one up on me.

"Girl, no but it is what it is."

"Well, I'm going to let you go now. I'll see you later."

"Bye."

After I got up & put my plate in the sink. I headed upstairs to get ready for a long unwanted day.

Michael.

Walking into my office building, the receptionist greeted me handing me a cup of coffee.

"Good morning Mr. Jackson." She spoke.

I politely waved & went upstairs to my office. I pushed the door open & sat my briefcase & coffee down. Sitting down in the chair, I turned on my computer then started checking my emails. Taking a sip of the coffee, I noticed it wasn't hot, it was warm & it tasted horrible. I quickly spit it out & threw it in the trash.
