Nicki- hello

Carol- Onika

Nicki- yes?

Carol- I want you to come back home so we can talk

Nicki- but I don't want to

Carol- the wedding is tomorrow and I want you to go with us, and we need to talk about a few things.

Nicki- am I in trouble?

Carol- no, your not in trouble. Just come home tonight.

I put the phone on mute so I could say something to my dad.

Nicki- she wants me to come home, she wants to talk.

Robert- do you want to?

Nicki- I don't know, I'm scared.

Robert- just go and if anything happens just call me and I'll pick you back up

Nicki- ok

I took the phone back off of mute.

Nicki- ok, I'll be there in a minute

Carol- alright

I hung up and gave my dad back his phone. I wasn't ready yet because I know my mom and I knew she was still mad, but I missed Meek and I did kind of want to go to the wedding. I went back to my room and started packing my things back up. A part of me still felt like she was just telling me what I wanted to hear just so I would come home just so she could finish yelling at me but another part of me felt that she was genuine. No matter what the case was, I would have to come back eventually.

Robert- you ready?

Nicki- yeah

Robert- cheer up baby girl, I don't like seeing you sad.

Nicki- I'm not

Robert- should we make a stop at the mall before I take you back home?

Nicki- yes

Robert- I knew that would make you smile

..

I was officially on my way back home. I was a little less nervous and very excited to get back to my boyfriend even tho I haven't even been gone for that long.

Robert- your gonna come back right

Nicki- yes

Robert- you promise?

Nicki- yes, I promise.

Robert- don't grow up to fast ok?

Nicki- I won't

Robert- alright, I'll call you later. Call me if you need me.

Nicki- ok

Robert- love you baby girl

Nicki- love you too

I gave him a hug and kiss and got out of the car with my bags in hand. I didn't knock because I wasn't quite ready to talk yet so I opened the door with my key and went to my room. I unpacked and also put the things at I got at the mall up in my closet. After I was done with that, I went down to see Meek but he wasn't there. I instantly started to regret my decision to come home. I texted him to let him know that I was here in hopes that he would come back in time to comfort me after this talk that was about to happen. I finally left my room and went downstairs to the kitchen.

Carol- when did you get here?

Nicki- a little while ago

Carol- oh, well did you have fun with your dad?
