"Joseph has already met her."

Well not in the proper way but, if he can't talk about her properly, I doubt he'll talk to her properly considering what happened on the Freeway.

"Oh really, when?"

"Did you see what happened on the freeway?" I ask mother.

"Yes, I did." She says matter-a-factively.

"Well, when we were crowded Jose—"

"Hello, you all." Joseph comes in mean mugging everyone.

I clear my throat as Joseph interrupted me.

I know he heard me talking.

"Before we acknowledge him, let me finish. As I was saying... Joseph was on the side of the freeway asking me for money and it was just causing attraction and he was just a being a big ole j—"

"Boy!" Joseph yells getting almost everyone's attention.

I don't know where all of this strength came from in me but I like it, for some reason I feel like I can face Joseph now.

"I'm not finished." I sing song.

Everyone suddenly gasps at my comment going against Joseph.

"Mike, DON'T get your ass beat." Chris whispers only that I can hear.

Angel's POV

Oh. My. Gosh.

I am so scared for Michael right now. All of a sudden this power just comes to him against Joseph.

Well there's a first time for everything right?

Well... apart from when he told me that (when he was younger) he threw a shoe at Joseph... but that's off topic.

"And he even down talked Angel. And that hurt my heart." He start walking towards his mother.

Huh?

I haven't heard anything of this before.

Keep going please...

"He was being disrespectful and was not treating me like I was his child." He looks his mother dead in her eyes.

Soo... that's what was happening...

"Joseph?" Mrs. Katherine turns her head to Joseph.

"Is this true?"

There is a long silence before anyone talks next.

"That boy is lying he is no—"

"It's true Mrs. Katherine, I was there." Chris looks her dead in the eyes.

"We we're." Chris points at him and I back and forth.

DO NOT! Put me in his crazy father's business... I do not need a Joseph Jackson chasing after me.

"I can not believe you Joseph! And the fact that you were about to lie to me." Katherine has tears in her eyes.

I wonder why she chose him as a husband.

Men and their fake sweet charms.

"I can not stand to look at you Joseph."

Joseph is meaning mugging Michael so hard... if looks could kill... Joseph has definitely committed a homicide.

"Go to the room, I'll be there shortly." She looks at Joseph and he reluctantly walks  upstairs.

"I am so sorry you all had to witness that and I am especially sorry to you Michael, Chris and Angel. I'll do anything to make it up to you all." She says genuinely.

Aww she doesn't have to do anything for me. Putting up with Joseph is enough.

"You don't have to do anything mother, it isn't your fought." Michael hugs her.

"Yeah, it's not- please don't feel guilty." Chris hugs her too.

"You don't have to do anything at all." I say joining the hug.

"You all are so sweet, but let me go and deal with Joseph."

Katherine starts up the stairs waving to everyone.

"Well I think that's enough for us three today." Chris says putting his hand on Michael's shoulder and looking towards me.

"I agree."

"Well, it was nice seeing you all today, but I think we have all had enough. Bye everyone! See y'all in the Bahamas!" Michael waves.

"Bye!" They shout back.

We all get in the expedition and we're about fifteen minutes into the drive.

Everyone is quiet.

"Damn, it ain't no funeral or some shit is it? Somebody hit the aux or something if y'all gon' be this damn quiet." Chris makes a face.

"I got the aux!" I smile and reach over to plug my phone in.

"Thank you! We ain't no damn mice!" Chris rolls his eyes.

Michael and I both burst out laughing.

As soon as I plug it in, Michael's music comes blasting out of my phone.
