Jennalice POV (in multimedia)

"Jenna get up!!" Monique yelled.

"Hmm what happen?" I mumbled in slurred words.

"Nothing happened you need to go home." Monique said as she wiped down the counters.

"Have ya'll seen Brian?" I asked trying to gain my focus.

"No!!!! Now go home!!!" She yelled.

"Bye!!! Yo mean self." I laughed. "I love you girl" I yelled.

"Love you too now go get some sleep" Monique said giving me a hug. Monique was my best friend of 10 years. She was a bartender at the club we work at.

After too many drinks in find myself stumbling across the streets of Atlanta, Georgia to my home. I find this as a daily routine. I got to work, sing, get drunk, and smoke. Yep..that's me, Jennalice Apryl Brown. As I stumbled in to my home, I threw everything everywhere and surprisingly made it up the stairs in to my bedroom. I slipped of my wine red dress and dove under the covers for a peaceful sleep.

As I slept, a loud obnoxious noise awakened me from my slumber. I look over to the night stand and saw that Brian's phone was ringing. Brian is my boyfriend and we've been together for at least 4 months now.

"Baby your phone is ringing!!" I yelled as he was in the bathroom.

"Who's calling?" He asked.

"Wifey's calling. You want me to
answer?" I asked chuckling.

"I wish you would" he said in a serious tone. He came over and snatched the phone out my hand and answered the call.

"Hello....hey baby....nahh I'm not busy....what!?....no I'm not mad im happy...... Look I said I'm happy....listen I'll come over later and we'll discuss this....okay love you too. Bye" he ended the call and tossed the phone on the bed. Brian sat at the and if the bed with his fists under his chin.

"What's wrong baby?" I crawled to the end of the bed where he sat.

"She's pregnant" he sighed.

"Congratulations" I said dryly as I scooted back a little.

"You know I don't want no more kids so don't even play. I already have four kids, can barely handle this child support, and then trying to manage this raggedy house" he said as he got up to  put on a shirt.

"Whose fault is that?" I mumbled rolling my eyes.

"What you said?" He asked with one eyebrow raised.

"Hmm.....nothing" I lied.

"Nah man I heard you say something." He replied.

"Nothing baby I didn't say anything" I got off the bed and walked over to him.

"Mhm. Well I'm finna go to baby mom's house so we can finish our conversation" he said grabbing his keys.

"Love you" I said.

"Love you too. I'll be back" Brian said as he walked out the door. I made my way back to the bed, slipped under the covers and drifted off in to a slumber.
