Beyonce's Daughter

Chapter 16: The Confusion (short)

I looked at Zonnique and then I looked at Manny.

"Manny? You said your name was Chase!" Zonnique yelled at him.

"Well I might've told a little lie." Manny shrugged.

"A little?! Now Bahja thinks I kissed her ex-boyfriend on purpose!" Zonnique shoved Manny.

"What is going on in here?" Tameka looked at us three.

"He cheated on Bahja and now he's playing me! I didn't even know this was the guy Bahja saw cheating on her." Zonnique yelled.

"Why is you yelling Zonnique?" Uncle Tip walked into the room.

Uh Oh.

"Him! He cheated on Bahja and he was just trying to play me!" Zonnique looked at Uncle Tip.

"Now listen here partna. We can do this the easy way or the hard way. Too bad you get no decision." Uncle Tip pulled off his shirt.

"I ain't mean no harm sir." Manny backed up into the wall.

"Obviously you did if Zonnique yelling." Uncle Tip chuckled.

"Tip don't do nothing to that boy. You got a record..." Tameka said

"Fine I'll be fair. I give you three seconds to get out my damn house." Uncle Tip turned to Manny.

Manny began walking but slowly. Uncle Tip gave him the eye as he walked past him.

"2..3!" Uncle Tip chased him down the stairs and out the door.

"You forgot one!" Manny screamed while running.

"I know." Uncle Tip tripped Manny.

"Oomf." Manny fell with a thud.

"If you ever come near my two baby girl's again...there won't be a third time I promise you that." Uncle Tip kicked the boy in his butt.

Zonnique and I awkwardly walked up the stairs and into her room.

"Bahja I'm sorry. I didn't know that was Manny. It was so dark in the theatre that I didn't see his face." Zonnique apologized.

"It's okay." I shrugged.

"Friends still?" Zonnique held out her hand.

"No. Not friends. Best friends." I shook her hand.
