Zonnique banged on August's door, angrily, slamming her fist down harder each time. She was still upset that she only got to see Ariana on the weekends. Her addiction to alcohol had gotten worst and August didn't want that around their daughter. In all honesty it was the best decision. Just moments later the door opens revealing a female- not just any female, August's assistant Jessica. Zonnique despised that she was around her child while she barely got to see Ari.

"Um August said-"

"Don't give a fuck, where's my daughter anyways?" She scoffed brushing past Jessica rudely. Her attitude had become horrible and she was heartless to everyone except her princess.

Jessica had this frightened look on her face. She's a twenty three year old hispanic woman, with shoulder length brown hair and beautiful skin. Her personality was very innocent like. "Ariana honey! Your mother is here!"

Moments later, seven year old Ariana came running downstairs. Her long blown out hair hung at her back and her little shoes lit up each step she took. Ariana had grown up. She favors her mother in so many ways; hair, eyes, nose, and dimples. She didn't care what anyone thought about Zonnique. She loves her mother more than anything. "Mommy! I missed you," she sighed clutching onto Zonnique.

"I missed you more baby, let's get going before your daddy gets back-"

"But it's Thursday mommy. Daddy said you only see me on Fridays, Saturdays, and-"

"Shhh.. go get in the car Ariana" Zonnique ordered waving her hand. She missed her daughter and she couldn't wait another day. Two days were not enough for her anymore.

"August will not like this Zonnique and you know that" Jessica sighed looking at her.

Zonnique laughed. "That's my fucking child. I can come get her whenever the hell I want. Go ahead and tell August, I honestly don't care. Bye!" She smiled and headed outside to her all black range rover. She peeped back to see Ariana sitting down with her seatbelt on and a smile on her face.

"You can sit in the front baby doll"

"Yay!" Ariana cheered before hopping in the passenger seat. Zonnique helped her shift the seat to her level then put on the seatbelt. Next thing you know they were off on the road, riding with the Windows down, enjoying eachothers company.

     I got out the car and helped Ariana out as well. We arrived at menchies, this new frozen yogurt place by the mall. I walked inside with her and grabbed two medium sized bowls. You can make your own custom yogurt which is cool. I handed Ari her bowl then we made our way to the next sections. I chose cookies and cream with brownie bites, gummy bears, whipped cream and sprinkles. Ariana had sherbet flavored yogurt with different candies send all kinds of sweets. I paid ten dollars from my credit card then found an empty table near the window. She sat across from me and started digging in. "Thank ju mommy!" "No problem babe. What have you been up to anyways?" I asked, taking a bite of my brownie. "School, glitter, unicorns! The usual" Ariana grinned licking her spoon. I laughed then nodded. "You like homeschool?" "Mhm and my teacher is really nice. I think she likes daddy too" "Huh?" My eyebrows scrunched up immediately. "She always wear a lot of makeup and her boobies are way too big for her shirts!" "Wow.. does daddy like your teacher?" "Nope! He lovessss you! He tells everybody too" Ariana giggled poking my arm. My cheeks turned red. Honestly I thought August hated me or something. He's always nagging me about how much I drink and popping pills. I only do it because I'm so stressed out- it's like a reliever to me. "I really want you and daddy together" "I know Ari but I'm just going through a lot right now-" "I know.." she muttered and played around with her ice cream.


      After leaving Menchies, I took Ariana shopping for about two hours and we went skating. She had a wonderful time and that made me happy. I just want to be a mother. I don't want her to be anything like me at all. She deserves to shattered in the finest clothes, treated like a princess, and raised to be an independent and strong young lady. She needs both her parents in her life- as a family. I don't know if I'll ever be able to be commited to August. I love him dearly but I'm never faithful. I unlocked the front door my house, carrying Ariana in my arms. She fell asleep on the long ride here and we've had a pretty exhausting but fun day. I took her to my bedroom then laid her under the silk covers, giving her head a kiss. "Sleep tight princess" I whispered before walking into the bathroom. I bathed for a good thirty minutes feeling refreshed. Afterwards I just crawled in bed and fell asleep with my love bug.
