TW: DEATH MENTION, abduction, child abduction, hospital mention, violence etc
Beyoncé
Nicki and I are on edge. We got India in the car and drove to the school to get Bryony from practice and Zahir from his gaming club.
We all just need to team up and be with Robyn right now to support her and Nick and I felt that Rob especially needs the kids as motivation.
Bryony stomps into the car upset because she didn't get to have much conditioning time. She doesn't know so we're not gonna give her much heat about it.
"Where's Z?" Nick asks looking back into the backseat.
Bry shrugs.
"Bry, we know you mad about practice but I'm serious where is he?"
Bryony shrugs again. One thing about Bry is she's all Nicki. She doesn't lie. She doesn't know where Zahir is.
I don't panic yet. Maybe he's hugging people on the way out. He's real sweet and humble and caring.
"Imma call the teacher that runs it because he never takes long."
Onika is scary on the phone so I don't doubt he'll be out soon.
Bryony huffs and huffs in the backseat to the point it begins to irritate India. She puts her noise canceling headphones on and looks out the window, tapping on the glass.
"Where is Zahir?" She asks lowly.
"We're gonna ask for him." I put my finger over my lips to let her know to quiet down. "Mama's on the phone.
Onika smacks her teeth and gets loud, "Who did he leave with?"
I look back at her. Her eyes are almost bulging out of her head. The car gets death quiet, only Onika's loud and rapid breathing being heard. I know it's bad. I know Nicki.
"Oh you'll be sued, absolutely."
I make a face at her to tell me.
"Shawn." Is all she says out the side before digging into the administrator over the phone and threatening to 'see' her.
I feel physically unwell. Why does Shawn have my son?
Nicki begins to yell and India gets very uneasy and Bryony begins to pick up on what Nicki is saying.
"Mom--"
"It's fine."
Bryony's attitude is quickly dissipated and she clutches onto her basketball.
This just isn't right.
"Switch seats with me, Beyoncé."
My chest is pounding because of how irate Nicki is right now. Shawn has him and it makes me all the worse.
"He's dead, he's dead, he's dead, he's dead, he's dead, he's dead." India begins to count on her fingers and it makes me nervous as we drive.
I feel in my spirit Zahir is with us but I don't know if he's okay and that worries me.
Onika cries. I get into the backseat awkwardly and try to get India and Bey to calm down.
I'm seriously worried for Zahir. I have experienced what Shawn is capable of.

Jazmine texts us updates on Robyn and it makes my chest clench since it's been an hour and we've driven everywhere we can think of.
