I grabbed my phone and sent a text to my mom but I guess that wasn't good enough for her. She started to FaceTime me. I answered.
She looked at me and her face softened from the semi-harsh one I previously saw.
"Baby." She said softly.
"I'm fine ma, I'm at grandma's in Jersey." I said wiping my eyes.
"Why did you leave? You could've at least let someone know you left."
"I just needed to get away and breathe for a second." I said.
"Okay." She said nodding. "Chanel, I love you and you know that."
I nodded. "I do."
"We have to talk but when you're ready. Just please talk to us before you leave for tour."
"I will. Ma, please don't start crying." I said watching her eyes water up.
"I miss you." She said.
"You saw me yesterday."
"No, I saw my client yesterday. I miss my daughter." She said and I frowned.
"I miss my mommy too." I said wiping my eyes yet again.
"Then please come back home with your father. We don't have to talk about any of that stuff yet. I just want to spend time with you before you leave."
"If daddy leaves tomorrow I will. I wanna spend sometime with Grandma." I said.
"And that's fine. Tell him not to leave until tomorrow."
"I don't think-"
"Tell him I said don't leave until tomorrow." She said and I laughed. "Tell him I'm fine with the kids. My mama, Michelle, and Kelly are here so I'm good until he gets back."
"Okay." I said.
"Midget."
"Yes ma."
"I'm sorry." She said and I nodded.
"Okay."
We ended our conversation and I just sat alone for a few minutes before I went to go in the kitchen.
Damien's POV
I was walking to the kitchen while I held Rumi. I heard my mom talking. She had just got off the phone with Chanel. I thought now was a good time to walk in.
"Where she at? What she say?" I asked and I guess I startled her cause she jumped.
"Jesus Damien! You need a damn bell or something." She said.
I laughed as I sat down.
"In Jersey with your grandmother. They'll come home with your father tomorrow." She said.
"Daddy out there too? I told y'all to give her time." I said.
"He felt he gave her enough." She said shrugging. "Where's DJ?"
"Somewhere pouting because I'm not holding him."
"Awe, my baby. I'll hold him." She said and I rolled my eyes.
My mom spoils everyone in the house then gets mad when they act the way they do.
"I'm not gonna lie ma. I love having my lil sister." I said looking at Rumi then my mom. "But you said I was getting two brothers."
"No, that's what your sister said."
"But you didn't correct her."
"And ruin the fun? For what?" She asked laughing and I shook my head.
