Toni POV
I sat in my office going through the files I kept on Michelle. I knew of her situation and was planning to get custody of her. We had a court date set but, due to the obvious circumstances, new actions have to be taken.
I heard the front door open and close so I checked the camera. Why is Bey just walking into my house? I pushed back my chair leaving out the room. When I got to her she was trying to tiptoe up the stairs.
"And where in hell were you?" She just turning around. Her demeanor was shaken up. Something was off about her. I️ just couldn't pin point it.
"I went out with Maine and a few friends." I chuckled she really think she can lie to me. She always has a slight twitch in her left eyebrow and she looked of into the distance when she did.
"And who are these friends?" I crossed my arms.
"I can't remember their names. Maine introduced me to them. I lost track of time. Sorry ma. I'll be more aware." She was really trying to kiss ass. I really don't like her boyfriend but he makes her happy. I knew she was lying still. I also knew she won't tell me for whatever reason and that she'll feel guilty for lying and eventually tell me.
"Just go to bed Bey... and you need to call Kelly so you two can talk to Belle tomorrow. She's in her room."
"Okay momma, night" she turned around walking up the stairs very slow. Oh she is definitely hiding something. Her ass got a limp. She better have tripped and fell.
I decided to retire for the night so I put up what I was working on. I made sure the house was locked up and proceeded up the stairs my first stop was the girls. Everyone including Beyoncé was sleep. The last room to check was Michelle's.
Her room was dimmed and she was sitting on her bed starring at the wall. I walked over to her sitting on her bed and wrapping my arms around her.
"Hey babe. Why you still up?" She looked up at me with hopeless eyes. It was as if she'd been defeated and nothing was going to make it better.
"I keep playing it in my head. It's making me sick. I'm a orphan now. When I turn 18 there won't be anything for me. What am I going to do?" I sighed.
"You're going to not worry. Everything is going to be fine."
"You don't know that!" She broke down crying.
"I promise you're going to be okay." I rocked her calming her down and eventually to sleep. I have to fix this.
Kofi POV
I woke up to knocking at my door. Rolling over in my bed I saw the time saying 3:00. It is was to early for anyone important to be at my house. I turned over going back to sleep. Just as sleep began to take over me the knocking got louder.
"What the hell." I groaned. They obviously weren't going away so I might as well get up. I walked over to the door. My apartment had no rooms except for the bathroom. Everything else was sectioned off.
