Normani

I'm shaken awake by none other than my husband. Just seeing his face causes me such disappointment. I roll my eyes and huff.

Man, I really miss my baby. I miss her voice, surely I'll get him away from me and can give her a little call sometime later. I'm just so anxious to feel, hear and see her again.

"How dare you?" Is all he says. "How dare you, Normani, what kind of dum---"

Papers then go flying in my face and he swiftly pulls me out of bed but I push him off, instantly annoyed at such an early hour of the morning.

"The fuck's wrong with you?!"

"What's wrong with ME?! Normani let's not play the back and forth thing. You're not in the position to ask me any questions when I've been so good for you." He responds.

"Fuck outta my got damn face."

My brows shoot up. He's just ridiculous picking fights. I catch a peel at one of the loose papers on the floor and see that it's the divorce filing.

I walk right past him and find a change of clothes, my towel and get in my shower.

The last I hear of his big mouthed ass before I hear the front door closes is, "And clean MY goddamn house, you free loading bitch!"

I sigh and break down in the shower crying. I need Megan. She is my absolute strength.

Regarding the details of the case that Teyana as told us, Joshua is absolutely losing this case. Honestly explains why he has his luggage sitting in the bathroom.

He can't afford to spend more money on Lawyers, so he absolutely gave up. I know how he is. He fights and the moment he gives up is the moment when he doesn't see a light at the end of the tunnel. It would only hurt his image more because it would make him look like he's trying to fight the truth and he'll be a sore ass loser. This is how himself and all his rich, business friends think. Especially on a night out for gambling.

I don't even wanna focus on him any more.

I turn the water on as hot as I like it and begin to undress myself as the water heats up. Slowly the heat causes the entire bathroom to fog up.

I step in the shower completely nude and ready to wash off yesterday's energies that clung to me.

Immediately Megan fills my mind up. I wonder how she's doing. She most likely is performing her morning routine as well. She's probably eating breakfast. She even mentioned to me that she's getting a new job. Potentially at an actual hospital with no ties to Joshua anymore.
