Beyoncé Opened The Door To Her Townhome Seeing Shawn Standing Before Her. She Looked Down "I've Been Blowing Up Your Phone, You Still Not Ready?" He Asked Moving Past Her To Enter.
She Closed The Door Placing Her Back Against It. He Turned Around Looking At Her With A Frown "Something's Wrong?" He Asked. They Were Supposed To Go Down To The Hospital To Schedule Their Surgeries. But Because She Was With Child And Still Didn't Tell Shawn She Wasn't So Sure That She Could Still Help Him.
Beyoncé Kept Her Head Down As He Walked Up To Her With Concern On His Face "Are You Scared?" He Asked Placing His Arm Around Her Shoulders.
"There's Something I Have To Tell You...I Don't Think I Can Do The Procedure" She Said Softly.
Shawn Removed Himself From Her Walking Away As His Mind Began To Wonder "I Really Want To Help You I Do But-"
"No It's Alright...There's A Liver Out There For Me" He Said Softly As He Walked Towards The Door. "Your Just Going To Leave?" She Asked As His Hand Reached For The Door Knob.
"You Want Me To Stay?" He Asked Turning Around To Face Her. She Looked Down "Shawn You Know I'm So Sorry-"
"I Get It, Your Scared To Go Under. That's Completely Understandable...Thank You For Trying" He Said Softly Leaving The Home.
She Stared At The Door Before Hearing Her Phone Ring Snapping Her Out Of Her Thoughts. She Grabbed It From The Coffee Table To See Her Mother's Name.
"Hey Bey" She Smiled.
"Hey" Beyoncé Said As She Walked Into Her Room To Finish Packing. She Was Spending Christmas Week At Shawn's House And Was Expected To Arrive Tomorrow But She Was Unsure If She Could Be Around Him For A Week Straight.
"What You Up To?" She Asked.
"Packing" She Answered Plainly.
"Where You Going?"
"Remember Christmas At Shawn's"
Tina Had Occasionally Forgot That The Two Weren't Together Anymore. To Her She Was Happy That They Finally Ended Things But It Slowly Went Away As Soon As She Realized How Much They Actually Looked Good Together. She Was A Little Surprised They Lasted This Long And Had Two Children Together.
"Oh Yeah...Did You Get Our Gifts? We Just Shipped It To Shawn's Since We Don't Have Your Address" Tina Said. "Yeah That's Where All The Gifts Are, Thank You Though"
"What's Up With You?"
"What You Mean?" Beyoncé Asked With A Confused Face. In All Honesty She Really Wasn't In The Mood To Talk To Anyone But Because It Was Her Mother And She Lived So Far Away She Could've Been Calling About Anything.
"Is Something Wrong?"
Beyoncé Sighed Thinking If She Should Tell Her Mother She Was Going To Be A Grandmother To Another Child. "You Can Tell Me Anything Baby" She Said Softly As She Looked At Her Daughter With Concern.
"I-I...I'm Pregnant" She Managed To Say Out Loud For The First Time. Tina Eyes Widen "Ah! That's Amazing....Wait"
"It's Shawn's...No Need To Worry" She Mumbled.
"You Guys Are Working Things Out?" Tina Asked With A Confused Face. "Not Exactly" Beyoncé Whispered. It Was Embarrassing For Her Mother To Know How She Truly Got To This Point In Her Life. Looking From The Outside, It Seemed Like She Was Clearly A Hoe.
"Oh Lord, Enough Said" Tina Said Shaking Her Head. Beyoncé Sat On Her Bed "I Know It Just Happened"
"You Remind Me So Much Of Myself" Tina Said As Beyoncé Twisted Up Her Face.
"Mhm, Don't Let This Pretty Face Fool Ya Baby" Tina Giggled. "When Your Father Did What He Did... I Always Knew. A Woman's Intuition Never Lies. But As A Wife And Mother I Held It Together. I Wanted Him To Be Honest With Me And He Didn't Do So Until A Year Later. I Wanted To Kick The Dog Shit Out Of Him But I Decided To Think About My Family And Fight For It. We Hid That Whole Situation For Years And You Guys Never Knew Until We Finally Told Y'all When You Were Grown. Us Knowles Women We Hold Our Own. We're Strong And Driven. I Made Him Work So Hard To Earn My Trust Back And I Even Slipped Up And Got Pregnant...I Unfortunately Missed Carried But I Want You To Know Your Strong Baby And You Make Mistakes Just Like Everyone Else Now This Baby Wasn't No Mistake" Tina Explained.
"I-I Had No Idea" She Said Softly As Tina Smiled Warmly. "I Know"
"Are You Okay?" Beyoncé Asked. "Girl That Pregnancy Was Years Ago. I'm Completely Fine Now" Tina Replied.
"I Just...I Want My Daughters To Look At Me Like I'm Perfect. I Want Them To Call Me Their Role Model"
"Oh Baby They Already Do"
Beyoncé Lips Began To Quiver "How Do You Know?"
"I Know Baby...I'm A Mother" She Said. "Mama Why Don't You Act Like This To Me All The Time? This Is One Of The Best Conversations We Ever Shared"
Tina Smiled "Your Hurting And Degrading You Won't Help. I've Only Been Hard On You Because I Was Upset That You Chose To Be With Shawn"
"You Got Your Wish...You Called It"
"Called What?" Tina Asked.
"That We Wouldn't Last"
"Girl That Man Was Made For You...I've Never Seen Love The Way You Guys Express It And How You Guys Are With The Kids...I Could Learn A Thing Or Two From You" Tina Said.
"I Learned From You"
"That's True" Tina Said Flipping Her Hair As They Both Laughed. "Thank You Mama"
"Of Course Baby...Now You Need To Tell Shawn He Deserves To Know" Tina Said.
"I'm Just Scared"
"You Wasn't Scared When You Made This Baby Happen"
Beyoncé Frowned As Her Mother Chuckled "Do What You Need To Do. Your Almost In Your Forties Handle Your Business"
She Nodded Her Head "I Should Finish Packing"
"Okay Baby, I'll Talk To You Later"
"Bye...Love You" Beyoncé Said Softly.
"I Love You More"
They Hung Up The Phone And She Decided To Put On Her Juicy Couture Suite Suit. She Went Into Her Girls Room Pulling Out Their Hair Container That Held All Of Their Hair Products. Grabbing One Of The Ribbons And Tying It Around The Pregnancy Test Placing It In Her Pocket Before Grabbing Her Wristlet And Keys Driving To Shawn's Home.
It Was Raining Hard But She Ran Up To His Door Almost Falling. She Decided To Knock Instead Of Using Her Keys Since He Wasn't Expecting Her. She Was Trying To Respect Boundaries. When No One Came To Answer She Decided To Use Her Key Entering The Home To Hear Music Coming From Outside. She Walked Towards The Backyard Looking Through The Glass Door To See Raven And Shawn Slow Dancing To Some Music. They Looked Happy, She Could Clearly See It All Over Their Face.
Beyoncé Looked Around The House. It Was Too Quiet So She Knew Her Kids Must Be Out. She Walked Backwards Keeping Her Eyes On Them Before Tripping Over Rumi Shoes Causing Her Body To Fall Back Right On Her Butt Making Her Scream Loudly.
"Fuck" She Groaned As She Rolled Slowly On Her Back Feeling The Pain Throughout Her Body.
"Bey?" Shawn Said As He Looked Down At Her Basically Rolling Around On The Floor.
"Oh My God" Raven Whispered As She Covered Her Mouth.
