Recap: (Not Really)

   When Nichole got to Zonnique's place, they went back down to the basement and talked and watched TV. Nichole's mom tried calling her but Nichole ignored her. Then they left Nique's house at 8:40 just in case there was traffic. There wasn't.

Chapter 10

★Zonnique's POV★

   So we got to the studio at 8:55 because it takes 15 minutes to get to the studio from my house. Nichole drove her car and Bahja rode with me. Nichole looked upset once we got there though. I was still sad about my break-up but my mood changed once I saw Nichole's sister,Chloe pull up. Then I saw Ray pull up. Then everyone else started pulling up. I was on Instagram going through my sister's pics and posts when Bahja called my name.

“Zonnique? Are you gonna be okay?" she asked. For a minute, I was lost but then I realised what she was talking about.

“Huh? Oh yeah, I'll be fine." I responded right as Nichole came over.

“What's wrong?" she asked. Bahja looked from me to Nichole to Ray and back to me again. “What?" she asked again.

“Nique, you haven't told her yet?" I totally forgot that I didn't tell Nichole.

“Its... Its nothing. I'll tell you later. Rehearsal is starting now." I walked into the studio before either of them could answer me. I didn't want to talk about it. I looked over my shoulder and saw Bahja and Nichole shrug and walk in. Kiesha led us to a section of the dance floor and told us that because the show is tomorrow, we would be doing both vocals and dancing with four 15 minute breaks.

<Skipping to 1st Break>

   So its the first break of practice and the boys are goofing off, as usual. Roc and Ray are doing backflips off the walls, EJ is dancing and taking selfies, and Princeton is trying to backflip off the wall but keeps failing. Bre just got off the phone and is heading over to where Bahja, Nichole, Aaliyah, Jordan, and I are. I'm just going to tell them about it.

“Hey guys can I tell you guys something?" I asked, knowing that they would say yes.

“Is it what you Bahja were talking about earlier?" Nichole asked. I nodded. “Proceed." Okay then...

“Dont be loud when you hear it. Ray and I broke up." They gasped silently and Bre came and hugged me. Then they all followed. When we broke apart, I told them about how we broke up and why.

“Yeah. But just don't make a big deal out of it, okay?" They all nodded. That's when we noticed Chloe was walking over to us which caused Nichole to get up and walk away and pretend she was getting a call on her phone. Chloe stopped walking and looked at us.

“What's wrong?" Bahja asked her.

“I keep trying to ask her about what happened last night and early this morning with my mom but she keeps ignoring me." She looked sad.

“What happened? Like, what did you hear?" Breaunna asked her.

“All I heard was yelling. Then this morning they were back at it at like 3 in the morning. I heard them both yelling and then at after 7, I heard the front door open and I saw them both outside. Nichole was going to her car and mom was following her. They looked like they were yelling but I wasn't sure. I just wanna know." She kept glancing at Nichole who just gave her a look that said, 'you're-gonna-get-what's-coming-to-you'.
