I am glad that my baby decided that rehab was the right place for me. It was hard to be in there without any drugs or my family. I got to see them a few times during the six months that I was at the center but that is nothing compared to being with them all the time. After my husband died I started getting into hardcore drugs and drinking heavily. I got the drugs from this guy that I know and I bought the drinks myself. My children witnessed me take the drugs, by accident, and I tried to lie my way out of it. But I couldn't. They knew things were off with me lately and me taking the drugs proved it.
While in the center, I got sick a few times from not having any drugs. I mean throwing up, night sweats, stomach pains, all of that. They couldn't give me any medications because I could've relapsed. While I was in rehab, Micheal visited me a few times. He told me a few encouraging words like he's proud of me and I got this. I cried because I miss him and I just wanted to be with him. He spent a few nights at the center with me but every time I woke up, he was gone. Michael came back and said that he had visited his mother.
I find it still weird that we can see him and to other people, it just looks like we're talking to ourselves. I miss my husband so much and I wish that I could see him every day. I saw my husband yesterday and I think I heard Paris talking to him yesterday too. When I came home, the boys were cooking dinner for me and they didn't burn down my house. Bigi said that he got a few pointers from Mama K. It felt good to be back home with my family.
I've missed them.

Nobody's POV
Today is Toni and Janet's wedding anniversary. They've been married for fourteen years and plan to be married forever. The couple lay in bed, tired from last night's activities. The two of them made love to each other the whole night and fell asleep a few hours ago. Toni rolled over in bed and laid her head on her wife's chest.
"Babyyyy." Toni cooed and rubbed up and down her wife's body. She pecked her cheek and watched as her wife's eyes fluttered open. Janet smiled and looked at her wife,
"Happy anniversary love."
"Happy anniversary to you too." Toni got on top of her wife and kissed her lips. Janet gladly kissed her wife back and grabbed her neck. Toni's hand then trailed in between her wife's legs feeling her wetness on her fingers. Janet closed her legs and pulled away from their kiss.
"No, I'm still sore from last night." Janet pushed her fingers away and Toni laughed. Toni laid beside Janet and bit down on her bottom lip. Janet got out of bed and Toni watched as her wife's naked body limped to the bathroom. Toni snickered and Janet turned around.
"Don't laugh. I'd like to see you walk."
"Mmm no."
"Exactly." Janet smartly remarked and Toni shook her head. Toni eventually got up from the bed and the two of them showered together. Once they got downstairs, they saw their three daughters in the kitchen.
"Good morning guys."
"Morning momma and mommy."
"Happy birthday!" Desiree said and the couple laughed.
"It's not their birthday Des, it's their anniversary."
"Right, can you say anniversary?" Janet asked.
"And say!" Desiree said proudly and smiled.
"So close baby."
"We made you breakfast, sit down." Azuree said and her parents sat down at the kitchen island. Janet placed Desiree in her high chair.
"We didn't know how to use the stove so you guys got cereal!"
"Oh." Toni lowly said as two boxes of cereal came into her view. Skai took the milk from the fridge and put it on the table.
"Mix your cereal. It tastes good."
"Oh okay." Toni poured cereal into her bowl and they ate as a family. At this point, Toni wishes that her kids were old enough to make them a proper meal.

8:38 PM
The couple is getting ready to go out for their wedding anniversary. Janet had on a silk red dress while Toni had on a silk black dress. They both matched their heels and accessories according to their outfits. Whitney arrived a few minutes ago to watch her nieces. She actually offered to watch the girls since she hadn't seen them in about six months.
"Take long to come back." Skai said as her parents got ready to leave. She loved when her auntie Whitney was around because they got to do whatever they wanted; eat candy, stay up late, you name it.
"Why? So you guys can eat candy and stay up late?"
"What? Nooo." Azuree and Skai said at the same time.
"Silly idea." Toni laughed and shook her head. Before Whitney came, Janet had put Desiree to sleep so she should be down for the night. After saying goodbye to their children, the couple were off to their dinner reservation. Joey drove them to this high-class restaurant called Providence.
Once they arrived, Janet helped her wife out of the limo. The two of them walked hand and hand to the restaurant. A waitress seated them and the couple made small conversation.
"Toni stop staring at me." Janet said as the two of them waited for their dessert. Toni is just admiring her wife's beauty.
"I can't stare at you baby?" She asked smiling at her. She shook her head and blushed. Toni then got up and sat down next to her. She crossed her legs and looked up at her wife.
"What are you doing?"
"Damn, now I can't sit next to you?" She asked jokingly and Janet chuckled.
"I didn't say that baby. You can sit next to me anytime." She said biting her bottom lip and placing her hand on Janet's leg. Janet pecked her cheek and leaned her head on her wife's shoulder.
"I love you baby and I can't believe that we've been married for fourteen years already. You're the person who I can count on unconditionally. Without your unwavering love and support, I don't think I'd be the person I am today. I love you will all of my heart and happy anniversary my love."
"Awww baby I love you so much too. Marrying you was the best decision that I've ever made. Thank you so much for bringing such joy to my heart. My life truly wouldn't be the same without you and all the happiness you have brought me. Happy anniversary baby."
