Onika's POV
November 13(10:15am)
Home
I woke up to the sun in my eyes making me squint and kick start my hangover. I got up to se Beyoncé not in bed beside me, I turned and went to my bathroom taking care of my hygiene and then going downstairs to the kitchen. When I made it my mom was there putting up the cereal and milk, "So I see you had a rough night" she said not looking at me "No, just woke up late" I said "Onika I heard you come in last night" she then gave me some Advil and water "Where's Bey?" I asked "She's in the living room".
I turned and saw her with her blanket and bear on the floor with her as she ate her cereal watching cartoons. "Good morning Bey" I said she looked at me then turned back to the TV "She's still mad at you" my mom said "Well that's obvious but I don't know why" "Maybe because she was waiting at the door for you she probably would have all night if I hadn't made her go to bed. She didn't want you to go, she's not used to that Onika and you still have to explain to her about school because I know you didn't." My mom said eyeing me down.
I don't want to though, "I know but she's going to be hurt and I don't want her at home by herself" "Then take her with you Onika." "That's even worse, how is she going to make it anywhere if she doesn't understand English she's basically useless" I said "Onika apologize" my mom said looking at me then behind me. I turned around and saw Beyoncé behind me with her empty bowl of cereal and a sad face "Bey I didn't mean it like that" she shook her head no and gave my mom her bowl then got her bear going upstairs.
"Bey" I said getting up and walking in front of the stairs to see she just disappeared but I looked up to see the attic string moving I sighed and went up and pulling the string only for it to not open. "Bey, come down I didn't mean it like that... you can't stay up there all day" I said. "Nika let her be and do better at your word choices." My mom said. I went back to the kitchen and sat at the island "Why do I have to mess up things." I said "You letting that Cardi girl get into ya head. She's no good" "Ma this has nothing to do with her." "The other day you were talking about teaching her English then you come home after being with her for most of the day and you talk about how she's useless without English when you and I both know she isn't." My mom voiced knowingly I just put my head in my hands and shook it "I don't know, but I need some food".
I got up and made me some toaster strudels. I ate them then checked my phone to see Solana texted me saying she was coming over, that was 15 minutes ago. I got up and changed clothes then went to try and open up the attic but it still didn't open. The doorbell run and I answered it "Hey" I said to Solana as she walked in "Hey where's Bey at?" She asked "Oh she's uhh-" "Where is she Onika?" She asked "Hey Solana how are you?" My mom asked "I'm good Ms.Carol do you know where Beyoncé is?" She asked "Oh yea she's in the attic." My mom said nonchalantly.
"Oh really?" Solana said looking at me now and going upstairs. She tried pulling the stairs down but it still didn't work "Bey? c'est moi Solana, puis-je venir parler?(it's me Solana,can I come up to talk?)" then the stairs came down. Lana went up and I tried to follow but she stopped me "I don't think she wants to see you right now" Lana said then walking all the way up.

I sat on the stairs and waited until one of them came down. "Girl will you leave them alone." My mom said "She just needs to talk to someone that's not you" "Mama I haven't talked to her since I left. She won't say a thing to me, I don't even know why!" I spoke throwing my hands up. "Just wait she'll open up. Knock and see what they say." I did as she said and the attic opened. I looked up and Solana was coming down "She said she'll talk to you, but she's still kind of mad at you." She said then went and to sit on the couch with my mom.
I went up and I saw her looking out of the window and holding her bear, the attic isn't as dirty as you would think it has nothing in it really and we keep it clean because we ain't with the cobwebs and shit. "Bey" I said as I walked up to her side she just turned some then looked back outside "Why won't you speak to me?" I asked she wrote on a paper in a journal that Solana wanted me to bring to her 'What?' She wrote 'why won't you speak to me?' 'Because I don't trust Cardi' I looked up at her with a confused look "Why?" 'She's mean' 'She just has to get to know you' 'Why did you lie?' I was confused but then I remember what I said before I left.
'I didn't mean to, we just got lost in what we were doing' she just looked at what I wrote and then back out the window. "Are you okay?" I asked she just nodded and proceeded to leave back downstairs "Bey! Please just explain!" I saw following behind her. She turned around and looked at me then shook her head no and sat down on the floor between my mom and Solana. "She's still iffy about us, Cardi just made it worse for you." Lana said.
I sat on the ground and then hugged Bey, while she just sat there lost in thought. "I'm not giving up on you, French fry" I said. And she held on tighter to her bear that was in between her legs.

(10:45pm)
Solana left around eight and said I had to tell her about school before I actually leave in the morning. Beyoncé is in bed already and I'm just getting done brushing my teeth. "Bey we need to talk" I said walking into my room she turned her head and looked at me with those sad caramel eyes. "You remember school right?" I asked and she nodded after a few seconds "We'll I have to go. I won't be here for a while." I said getting in bed and she sat up with a pouty face some.
"I'm sorry but I have to, you'll be here by yourself but you know how to take care of yourself right?" I asked and she gave me a bit of a mad face then she nodded. "Thank you, I'll make it up to you." I said pulling into me even though she was still mad I kissed her head "I'll teach you English tomorrow"
