Ebony & Michaela busted through the door, not knowing that there was an intimate moment happening.
They covered their eyes as soon as they seen what was going on, almost falling on top of each other.
"Bitch, you in here getting freaky & I'm tryna see what's wrong with you," Ebony whispered, loud enough so only the people in the bathroom could hear.
Imani & Naomi pulled apart while laughing. Imani gestured for them to close the door so that they could talk.
"Guys, I want to get clean. But I don't know where to start," Imani truthfully told them.
"I'm glad you said that, I do too. I just don't know how," Ebony said.
Michaela started smiling, gesturing for a group hug. All four girls started screaming & jumping up and down, doing a group hug.
Then all three boys came busting through the door saying, "What's going on?" with their guns in their hands. But calming down once they saw what's was happening.
"Y'all having a family reunion or some?" Idris asked, genuinely confused.
"Get out, so we can finish talking," Michaela said while pushing the three men out of the door.
"YOUR GONNA MISS ME WHEN IM GONE," Nassir sung, walking out the bathroom.
"I want to join the therapy session too," Adonis said rolling his neck, while being pushed out the door. Michaela closed the door & locked it behind her.
She turned to them with her hand on her hips, "When I got clean, the first three days were the worst. It gets easier after that."
They nodded, almost as if they were agreeing to terms & conditions.
"Yeah we remember, you wouldn't come out of your room for a week. You didn't even eat for week straight," Imani said, trying to lighten the situation.
"It's because I always felt nauseous & by me not drinking it caused a rise in my anxiety. I had a stomach ache for that whole week," Michaela said with a laugh.
"Ebony do you know when you want to do it? I need to take get next weeks work from school," Imani asked, looking at Ebony.
"We can start next week, but we turning up this weekend. Pre-Gaming as we speak," Ebony said while searching for something.
"Who want a shot, wanna die? Lemme know, I got two on the hip and the knot, no diggity," Ebony quoted the Isaiah Rashad song, dancing & pulling mini shots out of her pocket.
"Bitchh you a mess," Naomi stated laughing, while falling on Imani.

"Gorgeous, you gorgeous," Nassir quoted the song to Michaela as he laid across her lap. It had been two days since he introduced himself to her, meaning it was Monday & the day that Imani and Ebony chose to start their sobering journey.
She just looked down at him & started rubbing his face while looking back up at the tv.
"You not gone thank me mama?" he asked, looking up at her.
"It's because I'm black right?" she asked while trying to hold her laugh.
"Girl please," he sassily said, while sitting up quickly.
"Boy don't play with me," she said while grabbing his curly hair, pulling him back down on her lap. He just smiled at her in response.
Meanwhile, Idris was walking past Michaela's bedroom door with water for Ebony.
