"Aaliyah!"I yelled upstairs receiving no response. "I know she hears me...Aaliyah!"I yelled out again, receiving the same outcome.
I sighed heavily before going upstairs opening her door.
"You don't knock anymore?"She said as I looked around me to find who she was talking too.
"Not in my damn house. You lucky I don't take this door off the hinges you betta fix it."I said in a warning tone as she rolled her eyes sitting up.
"Yes?" She said looking at me as if I had three heads. I decided to ignore it for now.
"I thought I told you wash those dishes?"I said
"You did."She said
"And why aren't they done?"I said squinting.
"Because I don't feel like it."She said
"Girl—I ought to— lord give me the strength."I said calming myself down below my breath. "Aaliyah I don't do disrespect, now I have tried to be lenient, I've tried to allow you to express your self. But this is something that I will not allow. Now if you don't like that then you can get the hell out my house honestly. Maybe call your dad. Grandma anybody who will be willing to put up with that because I won't. I love you , you are my life. And always will be. But I'm not disturbing my peace for nobody, do you understand me?"I said my voice raised slightly, as she had tears in the wells of her eyes.
"Yea."She said lowly I almost couldn't her.
"Aaliyah."I said
"Yes ma'am."She said as I nodded fixing my posture.
"Good, now go do what I asked, please and thank you."I said before walking away, only after hearing her mumble under her breath.
"That's why I wish mama was here." I paused before gathering myself walking into the room.

"Come in."I said after hearing a knock on my door, as I looked up seeing Aaliyah. "Yes?"
"Can I got to auntie Nia house?"She said
"For how long?"I said as she shrugged.
"I don't know."She said as I frowned.
"What's so bad about being here? You don't want to stay and bond with me?"I asked desperately.
"Not really."She said softly as my face faltered for a second, not wanting her to know how much that hurt my feelings. "I mean don't you gotta work anyways?"She said
"No, I cleared my schedule to be here, for you."I said sighing.
"Oh...I'm sorry?"
"Nothing to be sorry for. I'll call Nia."I said as she instantly smiled.
"Thank you."She's aid as I nodded before she left the room. If you were here now, it'd be hard to believe that we were once best of friends. She was wrapped around my finger. And now she couldn't wait to get away from me.
All because I divorced y/n, I mean I understand why y/n wanted us to sit and talk to Aaliyah about it, but I thought she'd understand I mean she was 14. I said no, to not give her false hope on us maybe rekindling. I didn't want to give her the wrong idea. But it was really because I couldn't hear to be in the same room as y/n. Now I fear that my selfish has cost me my daughter. I mean what did I expect? Though y/n wasn't biologically hers, I kid you not that was her daughter. And even Aaliyah's dad hated how close they are, he still talk about it till this day.
"Hello?"Nia said as soon as she picked up.
"Hey girl, you busy?"I asked as she shook her head. "No, no, what's up? What's wrong?"she asked
"Nothing, Aaliyah wants to come over...again, you know for the 4th time in two weeks. I mean you might as well let her move in."I said
"Oh I'm sorry baby you know she's always welcome, but have you talked to her?"Nia asked as I shook my head.
"Not like she would stick around long enough for me to began a conversation."I said
"Do you want me to talk to her?"She asked as I shook my head again.
"No, I don't want to throw accelerant on the fire. I'll just accept that my daughter hates me."I said rolling my eyes laying back.
"Sanaa she doesn't hate you. I mean I should know my daughter literally, told me she hated me, and then slept in my bed for a month as a sorry because se had a revelation and she thought I'd die or something because of it, I don't know it was weird. Side tracking sorry,"She paused.
"But what Im saying is, it's what teenagers do. They rebel. Especially in times like this we're something has drastically changed. They don't understand it so they find someone to blame and you happen to be the one who's making her life so , so horrible."She said
"I understand that. But I don't know how long I can take it. I mean she literally looks at me with pure hatred. I mean I wish i could disappear sometimes that death stare is indeed deadly."I joked as she chuckled. "Nia I just want my sweet baby back, the one that doesn't keep secrets, sneak around, and comes to me about everything. It's like as soon as you can't pick them up anymore they're are totally different people."I said
"Oh girl I promise you do not want that. They over share, and don't give you no space. I wish Ari would get the fuck away from me."She said making me cackle.
"Girl stop it."She said
"I'm serious look."She said flipping the camera as Ari was up in her bed with her AirPods in. "Ari get the fuck out my room!!!!"She yelled as Ari couldn't hear a thing and kept scrolling as I laughed.
"Me and her daddy, can't ever fuck. I miss sex Sanaa. Even my Rose retired, I don't know what cumming feels like."She pouted as I laughed.
"I can't with you. I would die for that right now."I said
"Be careful what you wish for." She chuckled . "but girl I have to go that man calling, I love you."She said
"I love you too."I said before texting Aaliyah she could go.
