Omniscient
December 8th
Tennessee

The entire living room was dark, all windows shut blocking every ray of sunshine that could've managed to make its way into the dark area.

The sound of footsteps coming down the staircase was the only thing that could be heard in all the silence.

Amala, her significant other and Ming had come downstairs to find Onika sitting in silence in her new favourite outfit: a pair of grey sweatpants and a dark pink hoodie. They wondered if she had even had a bath all this while because that was all she ever wore. Seeing her downstairs felt like a miracle to the three women, she'd been upstairs for 2 whole weeks.

"Happy birthday Queen." Amala said wrapping her arms around Onika from behind. She let out a sigh and Amala let go of her coming around the couch and sitting beside her. The other women did same too, Summer sitting on the other side of her and Ming sitting behind Amala.

"Can you not say that." Another miracle, she spoke. Her eyes were situated on her fingers that she was currently fiddling with. The sound of her voice brought a smile on the three's faces especially Ming. She's wanted to hear her voice the longest. Not hearing her sister say something stupid or sarcastic for such a long time was driving her crazy.

Onika was going through a lot of emotions. She had no idea what she felt. She was worried about her friends, especially Ariana, but she knew they'd be fine, Danica thinks everything through, before sending them on a mission. But she still feared. On the other hand was Beyoncé, the fact that she can't see or speak to her made her feel some type of way, but it shouldn't because she was avoiding her in the first place.

"But it's your birthday luv. You even eaten?." Amala asked. She shook her head and shrugged.

"I'm not in the mood for food."

"You need to eat Nika. Your depressed state has gone on long enough. They'll be fine don't worry." Summer spoke. Onika chuckled. It wasn't her friends she was worried about, although she prayed and hoped dearly that they'll be fine, she knew they'd be fine. It was the conflicting emotions she felt.. For Beyoncé that kept her in this state. On one hand, the girl annoyed her deeply. But she just couldn't stay away. She'd be sitting right next to her now but she felt something different when she did. She realised that the night she saw her in her full glory. She had no idea what she felt even, she just knew it was different.

"I'm not depressed. I'm confused, worried and tired." She was tired of thinking and battling with her mind over her emotions.

"Then why you always sitting in darkness?." Amala asked.

"And refusing to eat?." Summer added.

"And always in this outfit. Have you even had a bath?." Ming said with raised eyebrows.

"One, it helps me think. Two, I just don't wanna and three.. Ming, I just happen to like it plus I change the clothes.. They're the same but not the same clothess- fuck, why am I explaining. I'll be in my room." She stood up and began making her way up the stairs. She didn't really want to talk to anyone til she was in the right state of mind.

"Fine, but we're still throwing you a party whether you like it or not!." Ming yelled. She didn't even respond.

"But I'm serious you guys, we're throwing her a party. Its her birthday, we can't let her be in this state." Ming said to the other two.
