Part 3, Chapter 44
When it Rains

Los Angeles, California

Lawyer: "So, we sat down with Mr. Samuels lawyers and we have some good news and some bad news. The good News, The State of California doesn't recognize Common law marriage. "

(She nodded her head apprehensively)

Nicki: "go on.."

Lawyer: "Well.. Ms. Maraj , the not go great news is that Mr. Samuels is opening up a claim for Palimony of 20$ million dollars. If he can prove that he supported your career and performed valuable services toward your success he may have a case."

(Nicki sat numb, surrounded by 3 lawyers at a conference table in Beverly Hills. A box of tissue at her wayside as they broke the news. Her foot tapped lightly on the edge of the table and everyone stared at her in dismay. Tears rolled down both cheeks soaking her brand new Moschino sweater. )

Lawyer: "Ms. Maraj, we will beat this. It is extremely rare that these cases go to trial, we have some strong evidence to fight this and we will do everything in our power to protect you"

Nicki: "he's not getting another motherfuckin dime of my money !! (raising her voice) "you better FIX this shit!!!" (sliding her chair back)

Lawyer: "I'm going to do everything I can... everything.. no resource will go untouched" (pleading)

Nicki: "You said that shit the last Fuckin time... (picking up a folder and slamming it on the table).. This is NOT what I pay you for"

(She grabs her Chanel Bag and before stuffing her phone inside notices the missed calls.)

Lawyer: "Ms. Maraj that is un..." (cutting him off)

Nicki: "dont' say shit else to me...(throwing her hands up).. I'm NOT willing to settle.. get the case DISMISSED... and call me when YOU figure it the FUCK OUT!!!"

(Her lawyer knew not to challenge her. Nicki meant business when It came to her hard earned money. She threw her bag over her shoulder and stormed out of the glass enclosed room. Adrenaline pumped through her veins. She was fuming with frustration and anger as she pushed past her security. Outside her driver stood with his head down reading something on his phone near the trunk of the car and was startled when he saw Nicki approach him)

Nicki: "I gotta Open my own FUCKIN door?"

(He scrambled to put the phone in his pocket but it was too late)

Nicki: "Do I pay you to send text messages and be on fuckin instagram or whatever the fuck you doing?? (His lips pressed together in embarrassment) And I'm STILL waiting to get in my fuckin car... (He then quickly ran to open the door for her a look of guilt fell upon his face. Nicki stared at him in disgust,) "I Guess I need to fire every fuckin body and START OVER... All these incompetent people... You're putting my life in DANGER... "

Driver: "I do apologize Ms. Maraj, I had a family emergency"

(Nicki just stared at him and rolled her eyes easing up on the verbal attack. She climbed into the backseat of her empty Maybach and that feeling of loneliness hit her again. As the door closed behind her she pulled her cell phone from her bag and began to scroll through Messages.
