The Love of a Daughter

Good Talks

Beyoncé POV
12pm

"Bey....Beyoncé" i felt my shoulder shaking and popped up.

"What? Wassup" i asked still half sleep. I couldn't see nothing but a figure due to it being dark in the room. This girl need some lighter curtains.

"It's a noise coming from downstairs. Sound like somebody just came in." she whispered. Tf she want me to do?

"Ugh man." i said getting up grabbing my gun out her drawer. She came up behind me and went into her closet. This girl came out with her own gun.

"What are you doing Onika. Put that back and sit down i'll be back." i told her. She disobeyed. Omg

We slowly walked down the stairs with our guns at attention. Nika popped on the stairs light as we got downstairs.

After seeing who it was we immediately put the guns down. Aunt Carol just now making it home.

"Shit! Mommy. You almost got shot!" Onika stressed. Auntie Carol just looked shocked to see her child holding up a gun like that.

"Onika Maraj where in the hell did you get a gun from? And watch your damn mouth." Aunt Carol said lowly. Nika looked stuck. She didn't know what to say.

"Mommy, it's for protection. I swear this is my first time even touching it." she lied. She is such a liar.

"Oh my gosh Nika. Go put it up, get it out of your hands. Please." I'm sure she was pissed.

I passed Onika my gun and she ran both of them upstairs. She came back down and basically flew into Aunt Carols room. I just stood at the bottom of the stairs. Not wanting to interfere with whatever was about to happen.

Onika POV

"Mommy where were you?" i asked walking into her room. She looked like she was getting ready to shower.

"Onika what did I tell you over the phone? I'm grown. Why are you questioning me?" she said while walking into the bathroom. I followed.

"Because I care about you Momma. You're always leaving out getting drunk then coming home at whatever time looking like you've been thrown around the streets." i said, taking the advice Beyoncé gave me.

I was so scared to hear her response. I don't want to get hit, or yelled at. Just for trying to see what's wrong with her. She blew out a huge breath while looking at the ceiling.

"Onika i'm fine. I just needed to clear my
mind. When I leave out, i'm just going for drinks, catching a fling, and coming back home. Nothing more." she said while turning on the water. A fling?

"Momma are you cheating on Papa?" I asked in shock. She couldn't be.

"Girl your Papa has been cheating on me since you were 7. Nothing new to me. And shouldn't be new to you either. Your Papa doesn't sleep here Onika. Where you think he's at? He damn sure ain't working all day everyday." she said while undressing. I immediately turned around because....ew. This woman grabbed my shoulders and turned me back around.

"Wow. I mean I always felt like he was but never thought he would really do something like that. Y'all seem so happy though. Like y'all are together." i said. It didn't really bother me in any way. Both my parents were in my life either way.

"We came to an understanding that we wouldn't be intimate with each other. We still love each other and would love to stay married, but we don't have sex. Mainly cause i'm not about to catch a damn thing from him. He don't sleep with  clean people. It's always hookers or some shit." She really didn't have to tell me all of that.

"Ok Momma you telling me too much. All I'm saying is... please let me know when you leave? Call me and let me know you're fine? I get worried. I don't know what i'll do if something happened to you." I said, hoping she would consider it.

"Ok baby. I'm sorry if I worried you too much. I didn't think you would care especially because you're a teenager. And I know that excuse doesn't make up for me doing it while you were a kid. But, you know, when you were young I just needed a way to cope with the fact that my husband was cheating on me. I didn't start actually 'flinging' until last year." She was now wiping the makeup off her face. Naked.

I understand where she's coming from. I mean, Momma gotta do what Momma gotta do.

"Ok Momma. That's all I wanted. I can't believe you just started undressing in front of me like that. Ew. You're very beautiful though Momma." i said chuckling.

"Umm duh, where you think you got it from Ms.Sexy? Now get out so I can shower" she said tapping my butt.

That went better than I thought it would. I'm glad she listened to me instead of taking it as me being disrespecting her.

I started to walk back to my room, but I saw Beyoncé sitting on the stairs with a kiddy smile on her face.

"You did good mama. I'm glad you took my advice " she said hugging me.

"Thank you BB"
