RACHEL 

Today the day roya performs and Dominic has been here all morning helping her prepare her routine only thing that's been on my mind is me lying to Justin but I know royalty is probably right about keeping the past a secret

Me: Dominic how is she doing

Dominic: we had to change the whole routine because she's not getting her turns right but this routine should be better I nodded watching roya dance when Justin walked in smiling 

Justin: good job Roy she smiled running over and hugging him 

Roya: thanks uncle Justin 

Justin: you bringing home first place today right she flipped her curls and clicked her fingers 

Roya: I don't do second place Justin chucked walking over to me 

Justin: what was you gonna say yesterday before royalty cut you I gave him a confused look knowing I know exactly what he was talking about 

Me: what you talking about he looked at me before brushing it off

Justin: imma go get her stuff ready see you in the car I nodded not looking at him maybe he knows I'm lying 

Me: alright I watched him walk away I felt bad lying but like royalty said what he don't know can't hurt him 

NATE 

Today is Killo ninth birthday so we spending at the biggest water park in Puerto Rico it's good seeing him smile and having fun with his friends I hope on day royalty will see he can't leave this organisation to roya I mean she'd be a great leader but I think killo or Sanjay should lead 

Killo: yo pops I really am enjoying this I never got a chance to tell you thanks for everything you've ever done for me I nodded shaking his hand 

Me: I'm just doing what I think is best even tho you and your brother y'all still blood and bloods have to stick together you understand he looked at me for a moment before looking out at Sanjay and the boys having fun 

Killo: I don't have a brother he died along with my mama a long time ago I will never forgive hi-

Me: it's been two years now killo when you gonna let this go he sorry for not being there he l-

Killo: I don't care it's like no one understands I'm never going to forgive him as long as I'm walking on this earth he's a stranger to me get it in your head dad there's no love and i'm sure he feeling the same way he said before limping away maybe they had no love for one another but they were still brothers and imma change that no love shit 

ROYA 

I just finished my hair and makeup and got into my costume aunt Rachel been acting all morning I don't know why the only reason I'm doing this is to make her ass proud and this is how she repays me you know something is was up and when I get this feeling I'm usually right 

Me: what's wrong you've been acting like this since Halloween she was curling my hair and she looked at me with confused expression 

Rachel: I dunno wha-

Me: see that's just it you can lie to uncle Justin, Royalty, anybody under the sun but roya hell to the no she smiled and looked at me in the mirror 

Rachel: I told a lie well ... I've been keeping a lie from someone I loved a long time ago ... well I guess I still love him I just don't know what to do I looked at her knowing what I'd do 

Me: if you love him you'll tell him no matter what the consequences if he loves you he'll understand if not baby let that nigga go I'm telling you she looked at me thinking about it 

Rachel: it's hard roya  if I tell him this lie he's not gonna take it easy everything we ever had will be gone and our friendship will change I saw how upset she was but she had to tell

Me: think about it this way,  you keeping it longer is gonna make things much worse but if you tell him now sure he'll need time to process everything but he'll com around if not well he's a fuck boy I'm surprised she's not telling me not to curse 

Rachel: How low have I sank talking to a seven year old 

Me: I get more things than y'all old people never forget that now gimme some sugar she smiled giving me a tight hug and kisses on my cheek 

Rachel: What would I do without you roya I thought about it before answering 

Roya: I ask myself that same question everyday she opened her mouth like she was shocked knowing I got a smart mouth 

Rachel: Wait what 

Me: TIME TO SHINE bye now ... hey everything will work out she smiled nodding slowly before smiling 

Rachel:I hope now go win that trophies Roy I smiled walking out on stage this was where I belong aunty Rachel was right
