MEDICINE

Moving On (Part 2)

"Yeah...give you a taste of your own medicine", Queen sung-finishing her song.

She  opens her eyes, looks at Mike with a smile on her face.

Mike presses the button so she can hear him, "Sis, come out here and give me a hug".

She takes her head phones off and sits them around the mic then goes to Mike and hugs him.

He looks at her while still holding her with genuineness in his eyes, "I want to apologize because I didn't get involved throughout y'all's relationship when he was doing you dirty. Me and Marcus just felt like we shouldn't get in between y'all's relationship because we love y'all both and we didn't want to choose sides especially because we was all livin' together-"

Queen cuts him off, "No-no, you don't need to apologize for anything. Me being a stupid butt, when me and him always argued behind closed doors y'all would always tried to help us resolve the problem or when he used to abuse me mentally and physically- like pushing me, throwing me to the side, and throwing stuff at me in front of y'all and y'all try to stop that, me and him told y'all to mind y'all business and stay out of it, so it wasn't you guys' fault".

"Yeah but me and Marcus, as brothers to you we should've put an end to that whether you felt that we should or not, and as brothers to Chris, I should've gave him the benefit of the doubt about y'all toxic relationship".

"I want to thank y'all though for taking care of baby Aaron when that was goin' on at the time, because without y'all there, he would've saw all that mess".

"We didn't care that we had to watch him, we love him".

"I also want to thank you for letting me use this studio to pour my heart and pain out in this song".

"You can use this anytime you want, lets run it back".

They let each other go and goes sit down next to the control buttons. Mike plays the song and they both started bobbing their heads. After about 3-4 minutes past, he says, "I'll edit it and send you the song-"

She cuts him off, "No, I want it just like that. I don't want no voice changing, no auto tune, no cutting out, or nothing like that, I want it exactly how it is. I want people to not only be able to hear my voice but to feel it. I want it out today".

He smiles, "Okay".

"I gotta go to Miami tomorrow", Clarence tells Patty.

"For what?"

"This girl wants me to be in her video, her manager is flyin' me out there".

"Well is this girl music garbage?"

He squints his left eye, "She got potential, bro".

"I didn't ask you that", Patty laughed.

He laughed, "Check the gram".

"Is it on youtube?"

"Yeah, let me send you the link".

Patty clicks on the video Clarence sends him and listens to it.

"So what you think about it?"

"...How much is she payin' you?"

Clarence laughed, "Don't answer my question with a question".

Patty laughed, "It's not garbage, bro...I just don't think she needs to make a whole video on it, I think she should just move on and leave it in the past".

Clarence leans back on the bed and laughs.

Patty scrolls down a little more to see the comments, but then he sees a familiar name that Clarence told him, "Yo bro, isn't this the chick you were talkin' about in the car?"
