That Night...
8:49
Lucious straightened his tie and answered the door for Cookie, Tormentó following behind. He shook his head as they laughed and he reached for their shopping bags, taking them out of their hands. "Looks like you two are getting along just fine..." "Yep! She's the perfect daughter... Understands men problems, just as well..." Cookie said, looking Lucious up and down. "Oh, stop... Nahh, I try to see it from both the points of views, so I just, you know, broke it down for her, you know, why some men are, well, kinda slow!" She said, smirking as the butler took their coats. Lucious laughed out loud at that one. "Well, you know damn well you my daughter! But you posed to be protecting me, T! Come on..." She shook her head 'no' and gestured to Cookie. "Señoritas rule the world, sí?" "And that's why I love you..." Cookie said, pulling her in for a hug. The doorbell rang, but the butler beat Lucious to it as Hakeem, Jamal, and André stepped in, handing the help all their coats. "Ma!" Jamal said happily as he ran over to her and gave her a big hug. Everyone greeted each other, and all at once, the boys noticed Tormentó. "Who's this, Dad?" André asked, stepping closer to Tormentó, and offering his hand, which she shook. "All in good times son, but for now, her name's Tormentó, and she's a new Empire artist we just signed. Wanted to, give her a big welcome." Hakeem nodded and smirked, while also walking up to her and shaking her hand. "Well, she must be REAL special, for you to invite her to dinner! What's up... So you got dem big bars, huh?" Tormentó smiled and looked in Cookie's direction. "Eh, I do OK..." "Oh, I knew I saw sum foreign in you! Dad, you got you a lil Mexican, huh?" Jamal yelled out as he shook her hand, and smiled as they headed to the living room. "I guess so, then..." The help came in and offered everyone a variety of drinks, and everyone either took champagne or water. "Ma?" Jamal said, confused. "You not drinking tonight? Cookie looked around as Lucious slowly scooted away from her, creating a small space, and she said slowly, "Uh, no... I'm tryna, you know, slow down or whatever. So yeah, not tonight...." Jamal started to say something, but Keem cut him off with a loud cough. Hakeem turned back to Tormentó once they got settled on the couches."Damn, look at dem orbs..." He said, referring to her dark green eyes. "I bet da dudes be all over you, huh?" Tormentó smirked and nodded. "Yeah, they do, but I don't say nuthin back. I, um. I'm gay..." She said, and Lucious spit his bubbly all over the hard wood floors.
"Damn, Dad... At least they won't only market me as a gay artist now!" Jamal said, saluting Tormentó, who saluted back with a smile. "Um, sure. Let's... Let's eat." Lucious said, wiping his bottom lip. As they sat at the table, André asked Lucious, "So what's really going on, Dad? You never, ever invite artists to dinner.... What's up?" Lucious pushed Cookie's chair in and then, easing down in his own chair, he began. "Well, son, she is very special to me, and she will be to you too, after this night..." "Wait... W-what are you saying, Dad?" Lucious sighed, and sipped his drink, as he finally said "Boys... This is your sister..." This time, it was Jamal's turn to spit, right into Hakeem's face. But he wasn't even phased by it. As it rolled down his face, all he could do was stare at Lucious, not sure he understood what he said. "WHAT?!?" Andre yelled out, standing to his feet, looking over to his mother. "Hey, I'm just now finding out today, I didn't even know. But she's family, OK? That's all that matters..." Cookie finished. Jamal slowly walked towards Tormentó and, without warning, pulled her in for a tight ass hug, smothering her half to death. "Leeme join in on this!" Hakeem said, burying his dripping face into her curly Mohawk. They stopped, and turned around, as all was left was Dre, and his face broke out into a soft smile as he briskly walked towards them, and pulled them all in for a big ass bear hug. "Welcome to the fam, sis......".................There u go, mi amigos... And yes, I really am gay... Vote, comment, or w/e... I Should be updating really soon. Te amo! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
