"I've heard that before." She bang to inspect the house and I sat on the couch, cradling Birdie who was sucking on her fist.

They can't take her away from me!

Oh God, why did I waste my breath on DG!? Why didn't I just refuse to talk to him!?

I can't believe he actually called CPS on me!

Does he want custody or is he going to send her to a foster home!?

"Everything looks pretty okay." Tiffany walked back.

Thank goodness...

"I just need to ask you some questions."

She spent the next few hours grilling me.

It felt like she was determined to trip me up.

Eventually she left.

I just cried and held Birdie who began crying with me.

DG's POV

I sat on my couch and took a spoonful of colorful cereal into my mouth.

My show ended and I sighed as the stupid daily gossip show came on screen.

Ugh.

I reached for the controller but it was just out of reach.

God damn it.

I set my bowl aside and grabbed the remote.

"And it seems like YN is in more trouble!"

I glanced at the TV.

Huh?

"A CPS agent was seen entering and leaving YN's house hours later. We reached out to CPS for a statement."

My jaw dropped as they read the statement out loud.

They think she's unstable and unfit to care for her child?

Who the fuck reported her!?

What do I do?!

How can I stop this?

Stop it, James Lee. You need to think clearly.

Is CPS even supposed to put out statements!?

I know what I have to do.

YN's POV

I didn't sleep that night.

I spent the night staring at Birdie.

What if they take her away from me?

I leaned my head back, tears spilling down the sides of my face.

Birdie began to make noise, letting me know she was waking up.

I scooped her up and gave her a long kiss on the forehead.

"Mommy loves you so much, Birdie. So, so much."

My phone buzzed and I heard the doorbell ring.

I tensed up.

Are they back?!

Are they here to take Birdie!?

My tears spilled faster but I wiped them before heading down the stairs to open the door.

I caught sight of myself in the mirror.

My eyes were puffy, face tear stained, and hair messy.

They're definitely taking her if I look like this...

I tried to clean up before opening up.

My eyes widened when I saw DG at the door.

"Deigo... what are you..."

He smiled and I knew in that moment that he cafe to see me suffering in person.

"Can I come in? The paparazzi hiding in the car across the street is recording us."

I didn't want to but I stepped aside and he closed the door.

His smile disappeared and he let out a sigh, running a hand through his pink hair.

I held Birdie closer and felt my eyes burning.

What do I do?

He looked down at me.

We just stared at each other then he glanced at Birdie who was pulling on my hair.

"So..." He started.

"Did you really have to call CPS? You could have just blacklisted me from the business. Or did you know taking my baby..." I paused as I choked up. "Did you know hurting me would be better by taking my baby?"
