Every Rose Needs The Rain Sometime

Growing

*1 year later Christmas Eve*

Kenzo was 1 years old now and I couldn't believe it I had dropped my second album which did great even better than my first but I was putting a hold on the tour to deal with my mommy duties and to make sure Ken was old enough he was aware of what I did and somewhat who I was but to him I was just mommy. We found our own spot and I was happy things were good with my Grandma and Brandon but it was getting cramped and I needed to be back on my own. Kenzo was the smartest kid I knew and he had a natural beat in him he always wanted to listen to music or somehow he would find a way to play it he was always banging his hands on stuff like it was the drums and he drove me crazy but I loved him he was amazing he was learning to speak as well he could say small things here and there. I was in the kitchen baking cookies and cupcakes while drinking my wine while Ken played around on the floor as Christmas music played through the house and I danced and sang along. I put the goodies into the oven walking back into the living room with Kenzo sitting on the floor with him "you excited for christmas baby?" he nodded his head "more toys! from Santa" "thats right baby Santa will be here tonight to deliver you your stuff and he is gonna eat the cookies" . In the middle of playing with him the doorbell rang "stay right here mommy will be right back." I got up setting my wine glass down and when I opened the door I saw someone I wish I hadn't and I regretted opening the door but yet I couldn't close it. There her stood leaning in my doorway

I didn't know how to react rather I should be angry, happy, I was confused.."Merry christmas mamas" "Prince..what the hell are you doing here. how did you find me?" "aren't you gonna let me in?" I didn't want to be a grinch and ruin my christmas spirit so I stood to the side sighing and he walked in looking around. I closed the door going back into living room causing Kenzo to look up "Man from TV!" he pointed ..he knew of prince and had some idea of him but he didn't know it was his father. "yeah baby look it's time for bed so santa can deliver your presents so how about we say goodnight now and I will see you bright and early" he nodded his head and I picked him up kissing his cheek throwing him on my hip "I will be back." I walked upstairs giving him a quick bath and putting on his pajamas tucking him into bed I kissed his forehead and then walked out turning the light off. I walked back downstairs seeing Prince walk around looking in the house."Nice place.." "thanks.." "I heard the album it was good" "thanks." "why are you acting so calm your not mad " "no I am not I could've easily talked bad about you and did a lot but I chose to move on from that because it wasn't worth it and it would only hurt me more..." I sighed no that wasn't all I had to say to him I walked over towards him and smacked the hell out of him he turned his head sucking his jaw and nodding his head "okay I deserved that" "you damn right you have some nerve! are you going to act like everything is normal! like nothing happened and you just show up out of nowhere for what WHY.ARE.YOU.HERE.?!" I said banging my hand on the counter "Im sure you've heard" I know he was talking about the split between him and Mani but i'm gonna pretend I didn't and he still didn't answer me "She only used me for the money we had no common interest I didn't feel it." "aww oh no really..I am so shocked..I don't know what you want me to say but I have nothing to say to you right now.." "well how about you just let me stay the night and we talk in the morning." "You can't book a hotel." "they're all booked for the holidays" "bullshit your prince. they will make room" he tilted his head at me.."FINE!" I rolled my eyes turning away I led him to the guest room and I was looking for the blanket and pillow I turned around seeing Prince give me a look...and my body got all fuzzy...don't fall into his trap..
