Secret Society

8. You're Hired !

Blair !

I landed in Houston 4 hours ago and I'm exhausted. I haven't spoken to Germaine or Megan since I left last night and honestly I don't care.
If they can't see I'm doing this
for all of us then so be it.

Rings !

I opened my laptop and sat on the bed in my hotel room. "Hello."

"Blair how you holding up baby girl?" Lee asked looking at me.

"Tired. I haven't flew in years , jet lag is real." I said laughing.

"Well your safe." He said. "Now the hotel is temporary we have an apartment set up for you. After the interview you will be escorted there. Now you will be wired at all time except for when you are home."

"So I gotta walk around mic'd up all day?" I asked opening a bag a chips.

He nodded his head. "Yes ma'am. Only when you are out."

I rolled my eyes. This ain't finna be no easy tasks.

"Look Blair , now that we here ain't no turning back. So I need to make sure your head is in this before this interview that's the only way we're gonna get the justice you deserve and all the other victims before you."

"It's in, it's just my family."

"What's going on?"

"They weren't speaking to me. I haven't spoken to them since last night. It's like they don't care about this at all."

He sighed. "Maybe they just need a little time to adjust. this is new for them as well."

"Lee at this point I don't care. I'm getting justice for my mom." I said.

"Got it." He said. "The car will be there around 2 , dress nice and remember from now on your Layla not Blair."

"I know that." I said rolling my eyes.

"Ok let's do this."

And with that he hung up.

Let's do it!

Carter !

"CARTER!"

I ran downstairs upon hearing my name and saw Diana with Cj on her hip.

"Can you please get your son? I do have to work yk?" She said handing himto me.

I grabbed him. "Girl you scared the shit outta me I thought something was wrong with the baby or something."

"No, I just need to get to work before this meeting starts." She said packing her bag.

Now I know what your all thinking but it's nothing like that. I had no idea about cj until 3 years ago. The exact same day I lost Carter jr , cj was born I know it's complicated but it's hard to explain.

I watched as she got her things together.

"We meet with lawyer Monday." I said putting cj in his high chair.
