Chapter 58

Onika's POV
Home
February 14

Destiny was looking after Zamora today because her and Michael were arguing. I only knew Michael for bad reasons, so I didn't like him too much.

Beyoncé and I were going out, so I was getting ready.

I was back to my natural hair, so that's what I was doing right now. I was curling my hair in a half-up half-down look.

I had a natural look going because I couldn't be bothered to go all out. Since Beyoncé and I were only going to mall, it didn't matter.

I threw on a pair of blue jeans and a cropped sweatshirt. My wrists were decorated in a Cartier bracelet and my Apple Watch.

Once I was done with my hair, I applied some lipgloss and went downstairs. Zamora left a pile of toys on my couch so I picked all those up and took them upstairs.

When I got back down, my phone was ringing and it was Beyoncé telling me that she was pulling up. She was surprised to see me actually ready when she opened the passenger door for me.

"Thank you for opening the door." I smiled when she got into the drivers seat. I would've pecked her lips but I had lipgloss on.

"Why didn't I get my hello kiss?" She asked as she pulled out of my driveway.

"I have lipgloss on." I explained.

"Girl, I don't care. Put those lips on mine." She gently grabbed my jaw and slammed her lips into mine.

When we pulled away, her lips were all glossy. I started cackling as I wiped her lips. "You just messed up my lipgloss."

"Just say you enjoyed the kiss." She rolled her eyes. She kept them on the road though because we were on the freeway.

"Why would I make it that easy for you?" I chuckled, reapplying my lipgloss.

I connected my phone to her car and started playing my music. She was bumping to my music so I knew she liked it.

We listened to my music all the way to the mall and I disconnected my phone when we got there.

The first store we went to was a shoe store. Beyoncé insisted that we got matching shoes because that was girlfriend stuff.

We both got Jordan 1's and I managed to pay for my own before Beyoncé could. I got them in a light pink and she got hers in blue.

I got a matching pink pair for Zamora because she was my twin. She was my other half, so we had to have the same things.

"Hold my hand, baby." Beyoncé insisted and I held onto hers. Doing real relationship things was weird. It'd been a while since I'd done so.

"Next time you get your nails cleaned, get some pink hearts on them." I recommended and I looked down at her hand.

We were walking to the next store. We went into ZARA and I picked up almost everything I saw. I even snuck some things for Beyoncé, she just thought I was buying oversized clothes.

I knew her style for the most part. Although she dressed like a stud, she could also dress up sometimes.

When I tried to put my clothes in my basket, I realised it was full so that was my cue to leave. So I headed to the checkout area and all my stuff was scanned.

"That'll be $472.35." That was less than I thought it'd be. I went to swipe my card but Beyoncé put down $500. I didn't even argue this time. "Have a good day."

The lady packed my things into some bags and we left the store.

I was getting comfortable and held Beyoncé's hand as we swept the different levels of the mall.

"No, because Jay Z is the best rapper in my world." I argued with Beyoncé.

"What about Tupac and Biggie?"

"Yeah, they're rap legends but that doesn't mean they're the best." I argued back. "Don't get me wrong, their legacies will live on and on but that doesn't mean they're invincible."

"So they're not in your top 5?" She asked.

"They are in my top 5 but that doesn't change my opinion." I shrugged.

"You're allowed your opinion." She pecked my forehead.

"I'm allowed my right opinion." I smirked and a small smile crept on her face.

I turned my attention back on where we were walking and I noticed a Build-A-Bear. I squeezed Beyoncé's hand to get her attention before speaking.

"Let's go." I rushed and picked up my pace.

We went in the store and started choosing the types of bears that we wanted. I chose a regular pink bear and she chose a matching bear in blue.

As we made the bears, she told me the outfit idea that she had for her bear. I cackled at her idea and everyone turned their heads.

Beyoncé gave anyone that looked at me weird a dirty look. That just made me laugh more.

Soon our bears were stuffed and we went to the little clothing area. I watched her pick her outfit and accessories with a perplexed look.

My outfit was a simple pair of shorts and white T. Then I got my bear some heart-shaped shades.

When we got to the register, I was in utter shock at the price of a literal bear. Hella expensive for no damn reason.

Even Beyoncé looked at the price weird. She still paid for both of our bears and we left with smiles on our faces.

My smile was because Beyoncé's bear was ugly as fuck. It had on a farmer outfit with a chain and heels with a cap. Such a random combination.

"What did you name yours?" She asked me, with her box in her hand.

"BeyBear." I cheesed. It was so corny that it was cute. "What's yours called?"

"Tanya." I burst out cackling.

"Ugly ass name." She put a hand on her heart like she was offended.

"Stop cussing around our kids." She jokingly gasped. I was so quick to stop laughing, you'd actually think she was unfunny.

"I don't know about your kids but I'm hungry." I continued.

We were walking towards the food court, so I was in luck. I ordered some Indian and she got Chinese. I only shared a little bit of my food before completely gatekeeping.

"Don't be stingy, bae." She sang really off key. I was convinced that she could sing but I'd never heard her sing before.

"No, eat your funky ass food. Leave me alone." I responded.

"We're married now. We share everything."

"Stop saying we're married before I leave you." I made a joke and she didn't find it funny at all. "What?"

"After we just made some kids? For real?" She clutched her chest. I loved her humour so much.

"Just eat your food." I laughed, covering my mouth.

She did just that and when we finished, we started shopping again. We went and bought matching onesies. This time she bought Zamora a matching one because it was so cute.
