"Yes. You've had happen what so many of us wanted happened to us." Charlemagne said. "You got adopted by the Carter's."
I laughed along agreeing.
"But how did all that happen?" DJ Envy asked.
"Y'all want the whole story? How much time we got?" I ask...

Kodie sat in the chair near the controls listening to her music. She hated going to school and being at home so the studio was her safe place.
She became her own engineer when no one else was around.
Why am I the one that's always up in this position? Why am I the only one wishing that you was missing Me, like I miss you? This verse that I'm kicking is all about you
She started spinning in the chair while vibing out to her music. She heard the door open and looked. It was Beyoncé. Kodie was stuck and stopped spinning.
Beyoncé closed the door and grabbed a chair and pulled it up to Kodie before having a seat.
Kodie watched all her moves.
"That's new?" Beyoncé asked hearing the music.
Kodie nodded. Beyoncé listened to the rest of the song with her. When it ended Beyoncé looked over.
"This why you not in school?" She asked.
Kodie didn't respond.
"Hello? Am I talking to myself?" Beyoncé asked looking around. "I Asked was this why you aren't in school?"
"Yeah." Kodie said lowly.
"So you think this is more important than going to school?"
"You want me to be honest?" Kodie asked.
"No because I know you gonna say something dumb and I don't wanna hear it." She said rubbing her stomach.
Kodie sighed. She didn't want to stress her out because of the baby.
"What did I tell you when I first put you in the studio?"
"That school came first." Kodie said.
"So why you switching up priorities?"
Kodie shrugged.
"Don't shrug. What's going on? Is something going on in school?"
Kodie shook her head.
"Is something going on at the group home?"
Kodie hesitated but shook her head.
"What's going on?" Beyoncé asked rolling her chair right in front of her.
Kodie looked off to the side and Beyoncé grabbed her face.
"Kodie, what happened?"
Kodie took a deep breath and stood up. She lifted her shirt. Beyoncé looked at the scars on her stomach and clenched her jaw.
"Who did this?"
"You can't get stressed. Think about the baby." Kodie said.
