Beyonce Knowles

It had been a week since Nicki dropped the news about her pregnancy and decision to end it. She's been avoiding me ever since, no matter how hard I try to talk to her. It was 6am, time to get the kids up for school. I groaned, stretched, did my bathroom routine, got dressed, and then went to wake up the kids one by one.

When I got to Giselle's room I saw her up sniffling, I immediately got worried sitting down beside her. I placed my hand on her back rubbing it.

"What's wrong G?" I asked.

She wouldn't say anything just shook her head.

"You and mom aren't speaking, things are weird. Mom isn't keeping the baby forreal?" she asked.

"I don't know baby, it's her body and her choice we just have to support her" I shrugged, I wanted to at least talk to Nicki and see if she thought about the possibility of keeping the baby but she just ignores me.

I made my way back to my room and could hear the sound of the shower running, signaling that Nicki was up and about. I sat on the bed, idly scrolling through my phone, waiting for her to finish so we could talk. I knew she was avoiding me, but I wasn't going to let her off the hook that easily.

The shower stopped twenty minutes later and I put my phone down as she was coming out of the bathroom with her towel on, she went into our walk in closet figuring out what she was going to wear.

"We need to talk" I said following her in there.

Of course she ignored me, just continued looking for her clothes.

"Onika, I know you can hear me!" I said again, but she just grabbed her clothes and walked right past me. "You're about to piss me off," I chuckled.

"I don't give a fuck about you getting pissed off, Beyonce"

"This is fucking stupid, a grown-ass woman who can't even fucking communicate," I muttered in frustration.

"Mind you, you didn't communicate with me about hiring the same bitch you used to fuck, so please don't say shit to me," she yelled.

"We need to talk about this baby situation" I said.

"There ain't shit to talk about, i'm not having it" she shrugged.

"And you think a decision like that shouldn't be talked about?" I asked standing in front of her, she sighed and rolled her eyes.

"You didn't think you hiring megan should've been discussed with me?" she chuckled, taking off her towel putting lotion on her body.

"That's not the same type of situation"

"It's the damn principle, you stupid bitch!" she stood up, yelling in my face and pushing me back.

"I told you to stop calling me out my name and keep your hands to yourself Onika"

"Girl, fuck you. You're 41 and still stupid as fuck. I don't know why the hell I married you," she snapped, her words making my heart hurt. She always says the wildest shit when she's pissed off.
