Bruce !

"Ma?! What are you doing here?"

"The real question is what are you doing here?!"

I look at Alice and she has changed a bit . Beautiful as ever.

"Alice-

She pointed her finger at me. "Motherfucker I thought I told you to stay away from her."

"Mom it's not like that." Crystal said looking at me.

"She came to me." I said.

"I don't give a damn! We agreed on no contact!" She said grabbing her arm.

"Mom!"

"Alice!"

I grabbed her wrist. "You ain't gonna grab her like that."

"Get yo hands off of me and crystal go get in the car." she said looking dead at me.

"But momm-

"I said now! Go!"

With that Crystal ran to the truck.

"Alice why you doing this?"

She snapped her head towards me.

"I told you to stay away from her!"

"She came to me. Really she came to d-

"We had an agreement-

"Alice she's 16 not a kid. You didn't think she was going to be curious about who her father is? And i didn't agree to shit stop saying that!" I said looking at her.

"She has a father. A pretty damn good one at that. So she doesn't not need you or your family! Now stay away from her or I will make your life a living hell."

Before she could even walk out the door I grabbed her.

"Don't go making threats nie." I said.

She laughed. "Baby that's the point. It ain't a threat and you know that."

And with that she left.

Fuck!

Blair / Next Day !

It's been gone for damn near 2 days and still no contact from anyone. I understand their upset but why can't they see I'm doing it for them. For us.

"Layla? Did you hear me?" Diamond asked as she stood in front of me.

I snapped out of my thoughts. "Yes , I'm sorry. What was the question?"

"I asked did you like the dress." She said.

"Oh yes of course it's beautiful." I said smiling.

She titled her head to look at me. "Are you ok?"

"Yes ma'am I-
