Perfectly, Imperfect

13.

An uncomfortable feeling of hatred began to spread through the room. Evelyn had not spoken to Tamar in 26 years so she was very shocked to see her. She had no clue that Toni still communicated with Tamar either.

Instead of her speaking and trying to be neutral so went straight to where her grandchild was. Completely ignoring everyone else in the room. Right before she made it to her destination Kenny stepped in front of her.

"May I help you?"

"Excuse me? I'm here to see my granddaughter." Kenny shook his head and laughed. "You know Keisha is missing. Look if you came to start some shit, today is definitely not the day."

"Toni control your little man. Now move before I have you moved."

Kenny didn't budge. Evelyn and Kenny stood their staring at each other.

"For once can both of you please act right! I don't want all of this yelling and negative energy around my baby!" Toni yelled in frustration. Kenny sighed as he moved back allowing Mrs. Braxton to walk by.

Everyone watched her reaction. This was the first time they had seen her since Keisha disappeared. For someone that wanted better for an individual she definitely had a hard way of showing it.

Awww she's so cute!" Evelyn cooed at the baby in aw.

"You mean to tell me you see all this blue stuff but think it's a girl? Oh I knew you were crazy but not this crazy." Tamar blurred out.

"Tamar if you weren't so much like me I would swear you were an asshole." Evelyn smiled as she placed a envelope on Toni's lap. She leaned into Toni and Toni slightly flinched.

Evelyn cleared her thought and walked away quickly. Tamar mean mugged her the whole time she walked out.

"What did I tell you about this stuff? You don't need this garbage. I'm your GOD!"

"Oscar I'm sorry. I just thought that maybe I could read it sometimes." Oscar backed Keisha into a corner and came towards her.

"You know what I've been thinking. I have a buyer that could really market you. Wouldn't you love a new scenery?"

Keisha thought about it and slowly nodded. This is exactly what she wanted. She couldn't believe she was getting closer to her family.

All three Chinese men walked in smiling. They nodded their heads at Oscar and looked at Keisha. "Keisha this is the Xonton Family, they'll take it from here.

来这里吧! *Translation: Come here now!*

Keisha stood there confused. The shortest man of all three came to her as she slightly smiled. He slapped her causing Keisha to sob uncontrollably.

Keisha's mouth was duck tapped and her hands were bound together. She was picked to the back of a black car and put into the trunk.

Keisha opened her eyes and smiled as she looked around. Immediately noticing she was alone and no longer tied up she dashed for the door. Keisha made it out of the door to run right into the chest of one of the Chinese men.

"So you're a runner? I see we're going to have to train you."

"No. I wasn't running I was looking for you. I was confused and it felt weird to be alone. It won't happen again."

"I know it won't. You'll never see the light of day again."
