Charisma had been stood at the door of the bar for a long while. She had heard from Keane and Leyton that it was Chloe's birthday and she was going all out. She had been watching Charlotte talking to and batting her eyelids in front of Julian and she had been watching Chloe letting some random guy grind against her, kiss her neck, share her drink with her.
She shoved the door open and walked in. "Mom?.." Thea said as she came back from the bar with the next round of drinks. "Are you okay?."

Charisma walked up to Chloe and stood in front of her. She stopped hugging on the guy she had been flirting with. "What is this?.."

"Charisma

"Charisma.. it's my birthday.." Chloe said with a beaming smile, swaying from side to side.

"Girl, I don't give a fuck what day it is..." she looked at the man stood by her. "You need to back all the way off too.."
He held his hands up and walked away.

"It was just a bit of fun...

"You think I don't know that you're acting up.. You think my son doesn't talk to me?..." Charisma said frowning. "You are with my son... but right now I wish you weren't.."

"I'm just having some fun..

"Letting another man put his hands all over you.. this shit stops Chloe... if my son doesn't excite you enough don't drag the shit out just move on..."

"Mom.." Charlotte said as she walked out of the bathroom.

"Don't mom me... you think I don't see what you're up to... I might be busy trying to hold shit together and care for your dying father right now... but you let me see you around Julian one more time and I won't hold back on you..."

Charlotte swallowed hard and Thea backed off knowing her mother only too well. "I didn't mean to offend anyone...

"You are so obvious with it... Lani is your sister.. but I don't think that you've got this whole family dynamic yet... do you even care that your father is in the hospital?..

"That's not fair..

"Cos all I see is you trying to be there for Julian.. and no one else...

"Charisma... please... you're wrong... and you can't come in here ruining my birthday..

Charisma turned to Chloe. "Girl, sober up and go and look after your kids... or is Lamar expected to do that to?"

"Well, he's a lil like you... I can tell him what to do and he does it.. I guess he followed his mama for his submissive personality... maybe I should slap him around...
She laughed but not before Charisma slapped her, her face straightened.
