*The Next Day*
August 20
Beyoncé Knowles POV"What do you want to do for your birthday?" Asia asked me as she sat on our new couch in her panties and one of my t shirts.
"Nothing. Not really big on birthdays." I looked out of the window as I sat at our little makeshift table and ate my cereal. It was a little hot in the apartment so I wore no shirt. Alex was gone for the day so we had a little time to walk around freely. My head then turned away from the window to Asia as she began talking to me.
"I want to take you on a picnic. Maybe we could paint and eat crawfish." She said simply before there was a knock on the door. What the hell? I thought.
"Let me see that?" I pointed to the shirt that Asia wore. She came out of it quickly and covered herself with a blanket while still sitting on the couch. I then answered my door in just the shirt and my underwear while still holding my bowl of cereal. At the door stood Mrs. H in tight black jeans and a black top that pushed her breasts up. She also wore dark rectangular shades and lip gloss. She looked so out of place standing at my door like a beauty queen. It was strange to see her standing at my door after rearranging her guts the other night. I hated the fact that she just popped up out of nowhere in dangerous ass places. How the fuck did she even know my address?
"Mrs. Harris.. what's up?" I held the bowl with a surprised look.
"Just checking on you." She said simply as she looked behind me at Asia. "I see you're just fine though."
"I told Alex to let you know I would be gone a few days. School is picking up." I lied. In all honesty I just needed to be away from her for awhile. I wasn't the type of person to do well in awkward situations. Knowing Mrs. H, she probably thought I was in my feelings but that was far from it.
"Can I come in and talk to you?" She tried to be discreet in front of Asia.
"I mean I definitely am not going to leave you out there." I joked. "But my place isn't... really that nice.." I tried to warn her. I was feeling a little self conscious about her seeing our living conditions. She probably had never been somewhere like this in her life.
"I'm not insensitive Beyoncé. I'm not judging you." She reassured me as if I was thinking that she was insensitive. She probably was just projecting onto me for how she treated me the other night, but that had nothing to do with me. I let her in instead of arguing with her. Once she was inside, she went straight for Asia and extended her hand to her.
"This is Asia. Asia this is Mrs. H. We're renovating her house." I introduced her before she could herself.
"I don't know why she insists on the formalities." She laughed. "I've heard a lot about you though and you are very beautiful." Asia blushed before warmly shaking her hand.
"Please you're gorgeous ma'am. I hope she's doing a good job on your house. I know she takes her work very serious." Asia responded respectfully. I could tell she was obviously trying to figure out why my boss was just casually in my living room looking at me in my underwear though.
"She's doing an amazing job." Mrs. H looked at me. "I was actually coming to talk to her about some things I wanted added." She lied to her. We both knew why she was here.
"Give us a minute?" I asked Asia before she politely secured the blanket around her tightly and walked to my room. It was obvious that she was either naked or halfway there and Mrs. H looked a little bit slighted by that but still kept her same fake smile on the entire time. The apartment was a tight fit but hopefully she wouldn't be able to hear if we kept our voices down.
"You haven't returned any of my calls." She said simply but was respectful enough to talk in a low tone.
"I'm off for a few days why would I need to talk to you? Wait how did you get my personal number? Alex? I thought we werent telling—"
