Her Wife And Kids

Rihanna's P.O.V

After talking to Nicki I took a shower, brushed my teeth then put on something comfortable.

I don't work because of my health but I can still make money on my own by being a ghostwriter.

Lyricist is what I prefer to be called. I don't consider that work because it's more like a hobby to me, but I do get paid sometimes so I guess it's a job

Nicki wants me to start using my talent to advantage but I'd rather remain anonymous. The press and paparazzi are all too much for me.

Anyways I'm about to cook some food for the fam. I walked into the kitchen noticing how spotless it was.

Casually I trailed my pointer finger along the granite countertop, not a single crumb was lifted.

I nodded in delight then continued on to my cooking.

Twenty minutes later Zisel came down wearing cleaning gloves while holding a dirty rag in her hand.

She walked pass by me, turned the faucet on and starts rinsing the dirt off the cleaning rag.

With one raised eyebrow I watched as she scrubbed the dirty rag. After a few seconds, she turned the faucet off and tried to walk upstairs but I lightly grabbed her arm causing her to stop in her tracks.

"Well hello to you too" I said, she lets out an exasperated sigh before replying.

She tapped her feet impatiently. "Hi hello can I get back to what I was doing now?"

What am I doing wrong? Why the fuck is she so angry at me??!

"If this is about what I did yesterday I'm sorry I lost my temper" I let go of her arm.

"I don't want us to be like this no more, know that you can come to me if something is bothering you...I don't want you to fear me cause I would never hurt you Zisel" She looks everywhere but at me.

"Look at me cause I'm talking to you" She slowly lifts her head up, a frown engraved on her face.

I can tell she wants to say something but she's holding back.

"What is it, you can tell me"

She starts fidgeting with her fingers no longer maintaining eye contact.

"Zi look at me" My voice cracks as I try to hold back tears. She instantly looks back, tears streaming down her cheek this time.

"Please just talk to me. It really pains me how we're no longer on speaking terms...we used to be like best friends. What changed that Zi, what did I do?" I say wiping the tears from her face.

She only shook her head.

"W-when you told me you wished I wasn't your mother and that I was dead to you, I lost it" I bit my lip holding in the sob.

But I couldn't hold back the tears.

"I can't even lie and say that didn't have an effect on me Zi because it did. That hurt coming from my daughter, I felt like I failed as a parent to make you feel that way...but regardless of how you feel about be..."

I swallowed my pride "I'll always love you, no matter how mad I am at you or how mad you are at me know that I'll always be your mother and I'll never stop loving you"

Maybe I just need to take a hint. We're not getting anywhere with this.

See this is what I was afraid of. This is exactly why I told Nicki I didn't want to have this conversation with her.

What made me believe out of nowhere she was going to tell me everything that's been bothering her.

When I've been trying to get it out of her for two years. Two whole fucking years I've been trying to get it out of her.

Her attitude, the reckless behavior she presents at school. The disrespect, ignoring me and disowning me as her mother all started when she was only twelve.

What did she see at twelve years old that made her change her whole demeanor?

Ida's P.O.V

"Abby I'm serious put your phone down cause I'm not tryna die today!" The original plan was to get a ride home from Tommy but her dumb ass forgot she had detention so I had to ride with Abby.

"Why you so tense, calm down we're not gonna die" She said as her phone dinged making her look back down at it.

I tug on to my seatbelt just to make sure it's on right cause this bitch wants to text and drive.

"Chica you worry too much. I've been doing this every since I got a car and not once have I been in an accident. Relax" She says, her strong accident coming through.

"Okay well let this not be the first" I responded. "You know what, just let me out. I can walk from here" My anxiety was getting the best of me.

"Not necessary, we're almost there" She said finally putting her phone down.

I let out a breath I didn't even know I was holding.

*DING*

"Here how about I tell you what they texting and you tell me how to reply" I said quickly grabbing her phone.

She chuckled. "Stop acting so scary"

I mugged her "If valuing my life means I'm scary than so be it"

"Whatever man, just tell me what it says" I rolled my eyes before reading the text.

"Ohhh girl I see you tryna shoot your shot. One of these days you're gonna have to tell her that you're feeling her. Can't believe I lied to my bestie for you. Better not fuck it up..." I blinked twice before reading the contact name.

It was from Tommy. Did she really just set me up?

"...T-this isn't how I wanted you to find out" Abby stuttered.
