Beyoncé Knowles ________________________________ I could hear her soft jazz music playing throughout the house before I even entered our home.
I looked up to the skies letting out a long sigh before knocking on the door, I waited for a few seconds before the door swung open, she smiled her deep dimples sunk holes into her cheeks "hey baby, how was work" .
I sighed then shrugged "it was work, how was your day" she frowned while taking my purse from my hand and setting it down on the small table. "It was good the kids went to the zoo today with mama Tina, but I want to know about your day what happened at work?" I shut the door behind me being sure to lock it before slipping my shoes off.
"Nothing is going right, everything just keeps taking a turn for the worst, and I have to have a fall collection out before fall even begins" I removed my dress coat then hung it up "what's going on with production?" She asked following me into the kitchen, I ran my fingers through my hair then looked up at her "I won't stand here and say they aren't doing their job cause they are but the designs aren't meeting up to my standards" she nodded while reaching into the microwave for my foil covered plate.
I knew I wouldn't eat it, not because of it being nasty but I was under so much stress it was effecting my appetite.
She uncovered it then sat it down on the island in the middle of our kitchen, I sat in front of my plate staring down at my food "not hungry?" She asked softly while standing across from me. I nodded then pushed it to her "its not you it's just me" I mumbled dropping my head into my hands "come here" my heart sunk a bit at those words.
I slid out of my chair then walked over to her allowing her to pull me in a warm loving hug, I wrapped my arms around her dropping my head into her neck allowing my tears to fall onto her white tee.
She ran her hand up and down my back in a comforting manner, my quiet tears turned into soft sobs of sadness.
She stood there holding me tightly her 5'2 body held so much power over me, I had to give her props being a mother and wife was a lot but Onika took all of that and turned it into her fuel to get her through each day.
She grabbed my face with both hands pressing our foreheads together while wiping my face "you're so strong bey" I sniffled allowing her to kiss the stray tears away.
"So, so, strong, do you know that?" I was a strong woman I took so much in on a daily basis keeping my feelings aside for others, I didn't respond, I had no response.
She kissed me repeatedly on my lips "come on" she said after smothering me in kisses, I allowed her to take me upstairs to our master bathroom.
She ran a warm bath filled with herbs, bath salts, and bubbles, I watched her silently allowing her to cater to me for once. Her small hands undressed my body slowly, I felt her eyes scan over me before she helped me into the tub "are you getting in?" She didn't respond but began to undress her body from the little clothes she wore.
I watched as she climbed in and straddled my body "are the kids here" she shook her head while looking at me "just me and you". I relaxed completely allowing my body to soak, my eyes were shut while all the racing thoughts began to slip away.
