Deeper Connection..

I'm not really the person to talk, but I knew this shit was going to happen with Umba. I felt that in my spirit, that nigga was going to put his hands on her. I wanted her on multiple occasions, but she didn't listen. Now that it's actually happened she probably regrets not listening to me.

Now that it's all said and done, she's going to have to live to California with Tamar and Toni. She can stay in Atlanta, but I'd rather she move to Cali with to be safe. Or at least until everything goes down. I have the deepest sympathy for her and it's just sad that my sister is going through this.

When I was married to Gabe, bless his now deceased soul, he was verbally abusive. It's like he could go out and cheat, but somehow it was always my fault. We all saw on BFV the way he'd embarrass me in front of the whole world. The only time I was truly in love with him was the beginning of our marriage.

It feels as he was a learning experience and we've all had a few of those, so it was an understanding of what not to do. I'm happily married now, so I'm fine. Enough of my yapping though.

We were all gathered in Tamars living room and just talking amongst ourselves. Toni and Janet were in the corner of the sectional just cuddled up. I think they're togetherrr, do I hear wedding bells. Maybe I'm moving too fast, but they're the cutest couple ever.

"Uhm Toni Michele, are you two together?" I asked her out of curiosity. The room fell silent and we all wanted to know, so she needs to just go ahead and tell us.

"Actually yes we are, we've been together for a little minute now. I didn't really know how to tell y'all that, but here we are." Toni said nervously, chile she could've been and told me.

"Out of all of us, who already knew?" Traci asked.

"Towanda and Tamar already knew, but that's because when Umba and I had dinner in Atlanta I brought the topic of her up. Umba said I was glowing, and she's the cause." Toni said and I just shook my head.

"We should've known Trai." I said.

"Does Mommy know?" I asked and she nodded her head yes.

"Welcome to the family Janet, you're going to fit in just fine around here." I said and we all shared a quick laugh. When all the laughter died down, we talked about the real cause of us all being here. Hopefully Umba doesn't get in her feelings because this is serious.

Janet~
Sitting here with Toni's sisters is joyful, it's not anything like my family, but it's definitely something. The way that they communicate and understand one another is admirable. I admire that, my sisters and I aren't that close. I can say that I'm closer to Rebbie more than anything, Latoya lies too much. I don't have time for that negativity in my life.

They had asked if Toni and I were together and I let her answer that. I didn't know exactly what she did and didn't want them to know, so I'd rather her just tell them herself, if you know what I mean. Shit, I'm glad to be with her fine ass, she's really all I could ask for.

A few minutes into us laughing and joking their mother walked in, greeting all of us and then sitting down to address the real issue.

"Umba, what happened?" Traci asked and we all looked in her direction.

"To be honest, it all happened so fast that it nearly gave me whiplash. He was upset that when he got home, I hadn't cooked. So by me not cooking he assumed that I was out with another man." she said.

"Is he the type to drink profusely or consume drugs and alcohol together?" I asked. I truly didn't know much about him to assume anything so I had to ask questions in order to really get an understanding of who he really is.
