"Ooo mama, her pwetty!" Said Willow staring at the woman interviewer while playing in her mother's hair.
"Aha Yes she isss willow pillow." Mariah said laughing trying to adjust willow on her lap.
"Oh why thank you willow! Also Mariah, how is motherhood? The public seems to just love seeing you do motherly duties."
"It's good, it's good. It gets hard tho. Being a single mother is bittersweet. But I'd do it all over for her, haha." Mariah said giving Willow a kiss on the head.
"Oh we forgot all about that. So is leaf getting out anytime soon ? A year is a long time, also did he really have a baby on you? Are you gonna take him bac-" the male interviewer started.
"Um, honestly. I'd rather not discuss him right now....can we talk about the music now?" Mariah said, clearly starting to get irked by the second.
"Oh I'm sorry, yes of course. You are doing fairly new. We hear you're under new management, same management as ot7 quanny and other local artists. And also with more exciting news, you're performing at powerhouse for the first time!" The male interviewer said.
"Yes omg. I'm so excited. This is my first large concert and it's already sold out." She said smiling.
"Well we're excited to see you live on stage! Thank you Mariah!" Said the woman.
"Thank you for having us" Mariah said as the interview was ending.

MARIAH'S POV.
"Can you believe that fuckin interviewer?? Boul was weird as shit. Cus why was he askin allat while my niece was right dere?" Asked Samya.
Samya is my baby sister. She just turned 19 this year but I've basically been taking care of her since she was 5 and I was 10. I'm all she has fr. Willow and I. And they're all I have since me and Khaleaf....I mean after what he did-
"Mariah! Are you listening?" Asked my manager Kim.
"Huh? Oh my fault. What were you sayin'?" I asked.
"Bullshit." Samya said coldly.
"Samya please. Ugh. All I'm saying is. Mariah, you know I got ya best interest at heart. But I think maybe if you just opened up a bit more in interviews, you could connect with your fans better. Plus. All publicity is good publicity..." said Kim.
"Tf?" Said Samya.
"So what exactly do you want me to do Kim? Tell them about how Leaf got another female pregnant and that's what my first mixtape is about? Or about the long nights when I would be pregnant, waiting up in that old apartment for him to come home High off percs? Or the shootouts? Or him going in and outta jail? What else Kim? My negligent parents? Me raising mya? I mean come on yo. Why can't something just be about me for once? About the now?" I started.
"That's not what I'm sayin-"
"Then what are you saying? Cus it seems like now that I got a lil money and a lil clout, everybody wanna tell me how to live my life. Leaf has his own wave. It's alive n burning. This gun case has only helped push his music further. But me? I've been called all types of whores and bitches by my Own city, for leaving him. For wanting better. But I did. N I'm glad. Cus I built this on my own." I said almost outta breath, sitting Willow in her high chair.
" and I'm proud of you boo." She said walking to me and grabbing my hands.
"I don't mean to take that away from you, just please, consider opening up, cus the ones that's genuinely for you and wanna see you win, will not judge you. Fr." Kim said grabbing her purse and walking out the door.
