Nicki's house

Asia: Rumi... Rumi, look at me

Asia said as she stood over Rumi as she laid in Beyoncé's arms.

N: baby have you cleaned your room like I asked you too?

Asia: yeeees mama

She said slowly and carefully making Nicki raise her eyebrow at her.

N: Asia... I will ask you one more time. Have you cleaned your room like I asked you to this morning? Yes or no

Nicki said sternly as she stared a hole into Asia's face making her look down

Asia: no mommy

She said in a quiet with her hands behind her back

N: so go and clean your room now. I shouldn't have to tell you twice Asia.

Asia went upstairs and Nicki just sighed making Beyoncé giggle.

B: she's just like you

N: everybody says that. I'm wondering what she gets from Meek

Beyoncé laughed

N: So how you been feeling since they've been home?

She asked referring to the babies.

B: Tired, Shawn is never sleeping these days, he's trying to get me to go to sleep more often.

N: Aww well you do need it. breastfeeding can be draining

B: Yeah... How's Briana been doing in English?

N: She's been good. You know that new girl?

B: Georgia?

N: yeah, I seen Briana watching her

Beyoncé frowned not knowing what she meant

N: like... you know what I mean like she likes her

B: oh... oh

She said in two different tones when it finally registered what Nicki meant.

N: has she told you she likes girls?

B: we haven't really talked about what she likes. I always assumed it was boys. I couldn't really tell.

Nicki shrugged.

N: maybe she is or maybe that's just me assuming. It'll be better if you talk with her.

B: yeah I'll do that.

LATER - HOME

Briana: they're so cute!

She said holding her siblings on the couch watching them sleep. Beyoncé sat back onto the sofa with her and watched her as she held the twins.

B: sir is forever mugging people. You got your daddy's face huh?

She cooed at him as she pinched his cheek a little. Beyoncé watched how Briana was just watching them with so much focus until she decided to talk about the girl situation.

B:So Nicki told me there's a new girl in your class.

Briana suspiciously looked at her before nodding

Briana: uh yeah... Georgia.

B: have you talked to her?

Briana looked down shyly and Beyoncé just knew.

Briana: um no

B: how come?

Briana: you know I don't like making friends mom
