Chapter VIII: Ms. Bitch

Toni's POV...
I took the kids on a little cruise and dropped them off at Uncle Shane and Aunt Pam's..

Aunty Pam answered the door..
"Oh my word y'all are even more cuter than I pictured, Come on in.."

They stepped in and looked around..
"Woooow this pace is weally weally big!"

"Yeah y'all got money huh?"
Ray said checking out the Fourier...

"Ray chill out man, mind your manners..!"
I said nudging him...

Aunty Pam smiled and laughed..
She came up to me and gave me a hug and kiss..
"No that won't be necessary.. it's quite alright..
It's amazing when you see things that are new to you..
Hey I have a huge game room that I spent all day setting up for you guys, wanna go check it out.. For some reason I know you're both gonna love it!"
She turned back towards me and whispered..
"Don't worry about Shane I talked to him already, you just stay focused.."
She rubbed my cheeks..
Then she headed up stairs with the kids..
"He's in the din if you're looking for him..."

I nodded and headed to the din where he was reading his paper as usual...
"Have you put down that remote and picked up a paper yet?"

"Nah.."

He laughed and closed the newspaper facing me..
"Why not?"

"Don't have the time.."
I said shrugging..

"Make time..."
He said taking a sip of his coffee..

I sighed..
"I hear you.."

"Mmhhmm.. well like I said I'll do all I can, you get a week to do what we talked about.."

"I know.."
I pulled out a black card..
"Look I really appreciate this take this and keep it get whatever they need and whatever you guys need, I don't care for the cost.."

He picked it up and laughed than slid it over back towards me...
"Keep it, you know your money is no good here.. A black card huh? No limitations I see.. Highest of the high! don't worry we do very well money is not the issue around here by far.."

I rolled my eyes..
"What do you mean MY money is no good here!?"

"You know exactly what I mean.. and these kids! These kids know too.. You can't shower them with materials they need love Toni.. and if you can't give them that you need to let them go with someone who can..."

I stud up in frustration having had enough of him, Cassidy and Loraine..
"I've had enough! You want these kids to get separated by the system because that's EXACTLY WHAT THE FUCK IS GONNA HAPPEN! They will separate them, these are FACTS! Them two are all they got.. No mom, no dad, grandma, aunts and uncles.. Nah their mom just left them out here to fiend for themselves.. 11 and 5.. Nothing that the fucked up system in the 'land of the free' or this God y'all speak of can do for them.. And that's real.. So what I can give them nice things, that doesn't mean I don't have emotion.. they need me! And I'm gonna be here, so can you just help me and stop judging and knit PICKING EVERY SINGLE THING!"

I let out a long sigh and huffed..
He just looked at me and shook his head..
"Lord knows I wish I could've gotten to you, I'm just sorry it was later on in life and you had to raise yourself.. I guess you have all the answers huh? Are you at least gonna tell the kids?"
