Saving My Life

Oliver's First Day at Early Learning Development

A/N Above is Karmani's outfit. A lot of drama coming in the next few chapters. This book will be end soon but there will be a sequel.

When I wake up, it's 7:30 am and I hear Karmani taking a shower in her bathroom. In her room, there's another cute outfit, probably from Ariana, laying on her bed. It's a shirt that says I Woke Up Like This and some black and blue pants.

"Taylor, what are you doing in here?" Karmani comes out of the bathroom, wearing her bright pink robe with her hair wet and tangled.

"Just looking at your outfit. I bet Ariana picked it out, didn't she?"

"Ariana did what?" Ariana sticks her head in, feeding Jordan a bottle.

"You picked out my outfit." Karmani giggles, going back into the bathroom.

"Oh. Taylor, can you help with the twins and Mackenzie? I'm getting Jordan and Oliver ready." I close the door behind me and go into Mackenzie's room.

"Mackenzie, since you had a bath yesterday, we can get you dressed. You have to go daycare with the twins."

I get her dressed in some black tights, a yellow shirt, and brown uggs then fits time for the twins. I dress them in matching clothes today, a grey shirt, black tights, and black combat boots.

After they are all downstairs, everyone eats breakfast and we take Karmani to school. It's supposed to be Oliver's first day at Early Learning Development. It's the baby version of Bright Futures, Karmani's school. They have daycare, preschool, and pre-k.

After dropping Karmani off, she meets North at the door for the early morning tutoring they just added and we go down the street to Oliver's school.

"Hi, I'm Ariana. This is Oliver and Taylor. I registered online. It said his teacher was Ms Rhenee, in preschool." At this school, they believe in calling the teachers by their first names.

"Oh, of course. Right this way." They lady, her nametag says Kaylynn, leads us through the bright hallway into an even brighter classroom.

The only thing really there is crayons, markers, colored pencils, construction paper, toys, those mat thingies they take naps on, and that's pretty much it. There is also huge playground which I'm sure is not even safe for these little kids to play on, but whatever.

After we drop Oliver off, we take the rest of the kids to daycare and go to Ariana's studio.

"Sean was supposed to be here. I don't know where he is." Ariana callers Sean and he said he was on the way.

"Ok, bye. Love you too." Ariana hangs up her phone and puts it in her purse.

After grabbing a piece of gum and giving one to me, Ari sits down on one of the couches and yawns.

"Ari, are you ok?" I sit next to her, throwing my trash in the can next to the couch.

"I guess. Sean's been actting weird. And before you ask, no, he's not cheating. I just, never mind." She shakes her head and looks out the window.

"Ari, it's ok. I've noticed it too. You should talk to him about it. Don't keep your feelings bottled up. I did that and that's how I was put up for adoption, because I didn't tell anyone how I feel."

"Taylor, don't talk like that. You have a lot of people who love you and that number is just gonna keep getting bigger. Thanks. Sometimes, I feel like you aren't just my sister. You're my mom, Nonna, grandpa, Frankie, my sister, my friend, and my daughter."

"Thanks Ari. Sean's here. Tell me when you wanna talk to him so I can make sure the kids don't bother you, unless you wanna do it while they're still at school." I hug her and we go over to Sean.

"Hey." He kisses Ariana on the cheek and we go up to the studio with her name.

It's black and light purple, with toys, and cribs, and all that stuff for the kids. She also has a huge seating area and a small fridge with snacks and stuff like that. Pictures of her dogs are everywhere and sitting on the couch, none other than Beyonce and Blue Ivy.

"Hey Beyonce. Hi Blue. What are you doing here?" Ariana hugs them both and sits down.

"I wanted to ask you something. I could've done it in an email or something, but we were just leaving and I haven't seen you in a while." Beyonce picks up Blue and stands up.

"Cool. What was it?"

"I was wondering if you and Sean wanted to do a song with me and Jay?"

"Sure. That would be awesome. When do you wanna start?"

"How about tomorrow? Are you doing anything?"

"Nope. The kids are at school and daycare. Taylor has a friend's house she can go over. I need to be rid of her. She's really getting on my nerves." Everyone laughs but me. I just stand there and look at her like "What the Heck?"

"Jeez I'm kidding." Ariana stops laughing and turns her attention to Beyonce.

"Well, I'm gonna get out of here. See you tomorrow." Beyonce hugs everyone and leaves.

"Ok, let's get started Sean." Ariana and Sean record their song and we go home.

1:30 pm

"I'm gonna ask if I can come over. I haven't been over there in a while." I go across the street to Skai's house and knock on the door.

"Hey Taylor. I missed you. Come on in. Peyton and Cameron are here and we were just about to call you." We go into her remodeled living room and it's awesome.

It looks like the Roc Nation building. It's black, white, and gold.

"I love it. It looks like the Roc Nation building. You ever been there?"

"No actually. That's pretty cool. So what causes you to come here on this fine afternoon?" Cameron comes over and kisses me on the lips.

"Hey, save the PDA for somewhere that's not my house." Skai says.

"Hahaha."

"I came to see if I could come over tomorrow. I already know you're gonna say yes because I just do."

"No." Skai's simple one worded answer scares me.

"I'm just kidding. Of course. Why?"

"Ariana and Sean are recording a song with Beyonce and Jay-Z. The kids are going to be at daycare and school. I really need to find something to do. We should start a show together." We spend the rest of the day talking in the living room.
