Unknown Child

part 11.2

Whitney P.O.V.

I really can't believe what just took place. In one day of doing an interview that was basically my tell all I have lost my daughter.

"Oh my god." I begin to cry, Krissy whispered in my ear.

"I'm going to talk to her mommy everything will be okay." She said before she got up and disappeared into the house.

Jermaine came over and held me as I cried against him.

"I am so sorry Whitney I never meant for her to hear any of that." Latoya started.

"I think it's best if you don't say anything else to me cause isn't no telling what I may do." I told Latoya.

"Y'all give me a minute alone with Whitney." Katherine said. "And don't go talk to Mya either. Let her be." They walked away going inside the house.

"Whitney dear come sit beside me." Katherine said.

"Yes ma'am." I said once I got beside her.

"Baby I know this hurts but that child has been hurting a lot longer than we all think. I know it's going to be hard but I think we should let her go." Katherine said I started shaking my head.

"No Katherine, that is my daughter. I can't just let her go." I told her.

"Whitney you know if Michael was still here. God rest his soul that, that child would be with him. In a way this her way of going with her father. I think all she wants is a break. I going to sign away the fees for her to go and acknowledge it. I think you should do the same." Katherine said.

"I don't know how. That is my baby Katherine. That is my child and you want me to let her go." I said crying my eyes out. She rubbed my back.

Michaela P.O.V.

"So you are really going to go through with this?" Sam asked me. We were in the room packing my clothes that I brought with me.

"I have to, I can't live with them anymore. I miss my dad and this new life is really not anything I imaged. I have to be in control of something so why not my school. I'm bored at school in Atlanta anyway. This school is year round so I don't have to come back during the long summers." I told her.

"So this is it uh?" She asked me.

"Yep." I kept packing because I was determine to get out of this house and away from the Jackson's and the Houston's.

"Cuz please don't be like this." Jaafar said coming into the room.

"It was already like this man. I can't take living with her anymore. It's like I'm living a lie, im her dirty little secret. As if I'm some sort of drug." I said.

"What's going on?" Prince came into the room with Paris and Blanket.

"So you guys come here." We went and sat on my bed Prince stood in front of us.

"What's going on? Blanket whispered to me.

"I'm going away for awhile for school."

"What's awhile?" Paris asked me.

"It's her way of saying she may never come back. Right Mya?" Prince said.

"Wrong Prince I'm going to eventually come back. It's just right now I need some space." I told them all.

"Wait we can give you space. What if I don't call you every night to sing to me. Then will you stay." Blanket asked.

"No because I love singing to you. I need a different kind of space. Space away from the grown ups here. Listen to me, this has nothing to do with any of you." I told them.
