The Interview

The next morning I heard Mama crying to Daddy and God saying "Please don't let me lose my baby girl." Our rooms are right next to each other so I heard the entire conversion. I could hear them mumbling and mama sobbing. I felt bad about blowing up on them like I did, but they need to know the truth.  Mama and daddy started to get into an argument

"Reba were not going to lose her." He said

"Narvel we treat her like shit!" She yelled

I couldn't take it anymore, I had to stop them before it went too far. They were basically screaming at each other

"STOP!!" I yelled so they would get me at the door way

"Avia?" Dad said shocked

"Yes?" I said

"Go back to your room." He told me

"No, I'm the reason your fighting." I said

"We have some issues we need to work out." He told me

"And those issues are because of me." I said

"Avia come here." Mama said I walk over to her and she wraps her arms around me. I didn't hug her back.

"Via?" She asked

“Nope?" I asked

"Baby?" She whined

"What." I said bluntly

"Please." She begged

"Not yet." I told her

"Why not?" She asked

"I'm still mad." I told her

"I'm sorry." She said

"You guys realize I can hear everything you say when your in here and I'm in my room." I said

They stayed silent. Mama was still hugging me and kissed my head

"Baby I'm so sorry." She said

I stayed quiet and she started crying again I slowly hugged her back and her grip got tighter. I tried to but her belly got in the way and she laughed

"Just because I'm hugging doesn't mean anything." I said, She sighed and nodded

"Avia." Dad said

"Yeah?" I asked

"You know about he mother daughter interview we talked about?" He asked

"Yeah" I replied

"The producers wanted it to be released the same day as the new single." He said

"Isn't that today?" I asked and he nodded. I tried leaving but mama held on to tight, I was furious

"Avia." She said sternly

"What mama?" I asked

"Please forgive me." She said

"It hurts Mama." I said choked up

"I'm hurting too." She said

"How are you hurtin?" I asked

"You. I was a bad mother to you." She said

"You didn't know." I said

"That's what makes it worse, I didn't notice." She told me one said anything after that

"Avia do you really see yourself as all of those awful things you said before?" Mama asked and I stayed quiet

"Baby." Mama said in disbelief and I looked away from her
