Erica's Pov
Hollywood California
Mena's Residence
We stared at each other as the room fulfilled with silence. The tension had risen and although our mouths weren't moving, our face expressions told a whole entire story.
"U-uh Ma that's what I'm wanted to tell you," Nikki voice was shaky, meaning she was either nervous or uncomfortable. " Me and Erica are still married."
"Yeah, and very happy at that." I faked smiled.
I pulled Nikki into my arms and kissed her plump lips. My hands gripped her butt, whispering into her ear, "What is she doing here?"

My father was dying from the cause of a rare blood disease, so my Mother thought it would be best if we all gathered around a dinner table before he shed his last breath. Every since that day, Marcelle became a pain in the ass.
She disappeared off the grid, left Nikki devastated. For weeks, I had to put up with Nikki mild mood-swings, minni-tantrums, and depression. I could've gave her everything but yet she still would've felt empty. When Nikki's Mother did show up, she wasn't the same ..

"You're going to let me in?"
"U-uh sure."
I closed the door behind her.
"Nikki out for a running, I could ca-
"No!" She shouted then calmed down. "I mean that wouldn't be necessary."
"Ok." I nervously chuckled. "Want some to drink I can even whoop us up a bur-
"Erica! Let's just cut to the chase." She threw her duffle bag at me and I quickly caught it.
