Lorenzo looked at offset and then looked at me with no expression. I couldn't read what was going through his mind.

I looked at Offset as he walked onto the stage with a microphone in his hand and flowers in the other.

"Aye aye, I just wanna tell you, I'm sorry, bruh. In person; In front of the world. I love you, whatever I gotta do to show you. I love you, bruh." He said to me while I stood with my arms crossed and all of my weight shifted to one leg.

I hated ambushes; I hated surprises.

I had so many emotions racing through me but most of all, I was angry. I wanted to curse him out. I wanted to ignore him and keep performing. I wanted to drop the mic and run back stage.

Offset walked over to me and I backed away.

"I don't know what you thought you were going to accomplish with all of this" I gestured to the signs on stage. "but I do not want you back. Once a cheater, always a cheater. You can go, sir."

Offset smirked then chuckled. "It's cause of that bitch ass nigga huh?" He dropped the flowers and pointed to Lorenzo who stood backstage watching the whole situation unfold.

With no hesitation, Lorenzo walked up to Offset. "Who a bitch?"

I quickly got in between them and I stood with my back facing Lorenzo.

"Offset you need to go." I yelled. "You are not my man, and you are not performing so why are you here?" I looked around a the security. "Can y'all get this nigga off the stage? Y'all scared cause he famous like what?" I said getting frustrated.

Offset looked down at me holding Lorenzo arm, keeping him behind me.

"You fucking him?"

"No but keep this up and i'm gone fuck him outta spite and send you a video of me sucking his dick. GO!"

Offset mumbled "bitch" before storming off stage.

"Hoe ass nigga" I said into the mic so everyone could here.

I turned around to hug Lorenzo. "I'm so sorry about that." I whispered in his ear when he leaned down to return my hug.

"You good." He turned around and walked back to the side of the stage where he was originally posted.

I then turned back to the crowd. "I apologize, Bardi gang." I turned to the DJ and gestured for him to start the song over. I began to rap my song again from the top.

After my set, I went backstage. I took some pictures with some fans and then my team, Lorenzo and I headed back to the hotel.

I was drained from the whole situation with my ex. I got showered and changed into leggings and a plain t-shirt.

I sat down on the bed and crossed my legs. I looked over at Lorenzo who laid on his back. His feet were crossed and his hands folded behind his head. His eyes were closed but he was not sleeping.

"You mad at me?" I asked while playing with my thumbs.

"No, why would I be mad?"

"Well my ex called you a bitch in front of thousands of people, probably millions if the shade room found out."

"He was gone get his ass laid out in front of millions of people."

I bussed out laughing.

"I'd love to see that." I giggled.
