Brooklyn sighed as she sat at the dinner table playing with her food. If it were honestly up to her she'd be in her room eating. But ever since her and her father moved back in this became a normal thing. But with the way things were going in their family there was nothing normal about that.

There was nothing being said or no eyed contact being made the most you could hear was the sound of Thier silverware hitting the plates.

"Brooklyn stop playing with your food." Shawn spoke sternly looking across the table towards her.

She smacked her lips while dropping her fork on her plate and sitting back Crossing her arms over her chest.

"Then what do you suggest I do father." He stared at her while shaking his head. He had no idea where this sudden disrespect was coming from but he didn't like it at all.

"Eat it like a normal person." She scoffed while shaking her head.

"I'm not hungry." She simply said shrugging her shoulders.

Mackenzie sighed while rolling her eyes catching Brooklyn's attention.

"I'm sorry Kenzie is there something you wanna get off your chest?"

"Why can't you just shut the fuck up?!" Beyoncé's head immediately snapped as she looked at her daughter in shock. It wasn't a surprise to ear Brooklyn curse it had started to become a normal thing wether she was disciplined for it or not. But hearing it come from Mackenzie had her shocked.

"Mackenzie! Control your language"

"Dad Are you kidding me?, you're telling me to control my mouth when neither one of you can control Brooklyn!, she's the one that's out of control while both of you guys are sitting around like it's the end of the freaking world when y'all could easily discipline her like normal parents would."

Beyoncé abruptly stood up from the table gaining looks from everyone in the room.

"What we do or don't do as parents is none of your goddamn business! Just because Brooklyn acts out doesn't mean we need you doing it too, I never in my life wanna hear a world like that come out of neither one of y'alls mouth again, none of y'all are grown or paying any type of bills and until y'all are I don't wanna hear it because if I do yall can find yourself's on the other side of the damn door because I refuse to let y'all sit up in my house and disrespect me, Do I make my self clear?!"

Everyone nodded their heads. Even Shawn although it wasn't directed to him.

Sighing she closed her eyes. She hated having to talk to her girls that way but she had reached her breaking point she was done trying to be a bestfriend to her children she needed to be a mother.

"Y'all can finish dinner In your rooms when your done, go to bed I don't wanna see neither of you for the rest of the night." Was all she said before she walking off and disappearing.

Shawn looked at the both of them in disappointment before standing up and leaving the table.

Brooklyn smirked to herself before standing up and leaving the table. She had did exactly what she needed to do to have a distraction while she snuck out of the house tonight.
