"MIAMI STOP PLAYING." Tori scolded. "You're going to his party so get up." She then invited herself inside Miami's closet.

Her eyes smoothly ran over the huge selection of clothes before she started snatching down everything that she felt was both cute and flashy enough for the occasion.

"Sis I was not invited." Miami shook her head and plopped down on her bed. "Besides, we have children together the fuck do we need to be partying together for too?"

She lowkey felt some type of way that she had to find out about this party, through somebody who was not Elijah himself. She knew that their relationship wasn't where he wanted it to be but she thought as if they were on a common enough ground that he would so much as extend an invitation to his birthday. It was something so small that she could careless about but at the same time...she did care.

"Um to celebrate a birthday." Tori came out of the closet with an armful worth of Miami's wardrobe. "I just feel that you need to get out of the house. You've been on your shit lately and I commend that, but what happened to the fun Miami? Sis you're literally only twenty-one and be living like you're in your early forties. Your own mother be at the clubs and shit. Nana too!" Tori teased. "And it's not like you both have been on bad terms, because you haven't. I don't see an issue with you going to his birthday."

"I don't know T." Miami expressed. "I have plans with Justin, anyways." She looked down at her nails.

"You'll be free at ten, I know that much." Tori plopped the clothes down on the bed. "How'd the conversation with Sophia go?"

"I'm not able to speak with her over the phone so I just wrote and sent her a letter. I want her to know how genuinely sorry I am for everything, and ask her for her permission to be around her kids the way that I've been. I'm starting to feel like a mother figure to them and I want to be able to feel that way without feeling bad about the circumstances. It's not just my guilt but it's her pain that's pushing me to converse with her. I just feel like that's another situation I need closure from. You know?"
