Kitty and Icee treated her so amazingly. She was having the time of her life there. Hanging with the babies, and watching them grow and change daily was amazing. IceeJay was not only walking, he was talking better and getting into all kinds of trouble.

And he was warming up to her.

"Say TeeTee GinGin."

She held IceeJay while she played with him, bouncing him on her lap.

"Baba."

"GinGin."

"Baba."

"GinGin!"

"Baba! Baba! Baba!"

Well, that was that. She was not going to fight with the boy. She was watching him while Kitty and Icee took the twins to a doctor's appointment. She was taking a social media break and had not checked anything since she arrived in Springfield. That was refreshing. That meant no drama.

Then she got a call from M'Liyah.

"Hey girl, the label wants to release the new song. Like now. They want us to do a video and a whole media blitz for it."

She groaned and rolled her eyes. That meant she would get sucked back into the group when she wanted to work on her solo career. She should not be ungrateful about it. The song was a number one for sure, why wouldn't she share it with the world?

"Let me think about it."

She hung up with her and then walked around the house with IceeJay. They were interrupted by the sound of loud running around in the house. Kitty and Icee were back?

No, it did not sound like them.

"Hello?"

She heard talking and walked toward it. Once she was in the main room area, she saw that it was Kitty's older sister and her two little girls. Well, her two daughters because they both were taller than her.

"Hey Ginger, Kitty told me you were here. She told me it was fine if I came on over. I have a thing with Icee later."

"Oh yeah, you still working at Da Factory Hitz?"

"Hey, Ginger!" Monica came over and hugged her. "Can I play with IceeJay? I gotta teach him the new TikTok dance."

"Girl, he can barely stand straight."

"He can dance though, watch." Monica took IceeJay from her and he was in a fit of giggles. "Babies make the best Tik Tok videos. I'm going to get all likes."

She and Brandy rushed off with the boy, phones in their hands.

"IceeJay loves being a showoff too.... hmmm, wonder where he gets that from?" Sarena said as they both laughed. "And to answer your question, heeellllll no! I can't work at Da Factory Hitz anymore, you know, after I had an affair with T-Zack."

"WHAT?" She had no clue what she was talking about. Kitty wasn't keen on telling her sisters' business. She did not even know her sister Ashley had cancer till she lay in the hospital dying.

"My husband forgave me but uh...said I couldn't work for him anymore, and I thought it was best. Now...shit, I want to do something. Icee said maybe he could help me out with something else."

"You did a good job with your sis. She's doing the damn thing this year!"

"And Tone. And my brother coming out later this year. But I don't know, music business is something else." Sarena walked around the house. "I decorated this house you know, that's more my thing."

"But you were handling the bigwigs in the recording industry, that was no small feat."

She shrugged at her. "I don't take shit. And that's in any business. Do you need a drink? I need a drink."
