"Daddy, when you go to New Orleans the day after tomorrow, can I go too?" Anna asked.
She positioned herself from sitting on my lap to now being in my face.
"No, babe. I gotta work." I mumbled watching Skip and Shannon as it played on a TV behind her head.
"Nikki can watch me."
"No, she can't. She'll be working."
"While she's working, she can watch me too." She explained.
"She's not both of our assistant, Tre'Anna. She doesn't work for you, she works for me."
She sucked her teeth and turned back around dramatically.
I kissed the side of her face and gave her a squeeze.
"Don't be like that, baby doll."
"You always leave." She pouted as she crossed her arms.
I muted the TV and turned her to face me.
"Why do I leave?"
She didn't reply as she refused to make eye contact.
She was most definitely her mother's child.
I laughed internally and consoled her face.
"Tell me why I leave."
"To make money." She mumbled.
"Why?"
"So we can have a good life." She added finally looking at me.
"Don't ever forget that," I reminded her, "if I'm not with you, that's the only reason why."
"Mommy's going back to work too." She said with a sigh.
I watched her face become anxious which broke my heart.
"Is that what this is about?"
Slowly, she nodded.
"You get to go too though. Isn't that exciting? You never get to go on the road with me or Mommy. You get to see more of what she does."
"But she's gonna be busy working."
"I know it gets hectic around you sometimes," I let her know, "but I promise touring with your mother is not gonna be what you think. I think you'll have fun, you and TJ."
