"Are you sure your going to be okay?" Bey asked me as I got ready to exit her car.

"Yeah I will be okay. It will only take me a few minutes, if not shorter."

Bey looked at me with worry before she unlocked the doors to finally let me out.

"Alright, if you need me call me. I'll come soon as you say so."

I gave her a peck on the lips a few times before she held my face for a real kiss.

"I'm serious nic, I got you if you need me." She said resting her forehead on mine.

I nodded before fully getting out the car. I looked back at her one more time before shutting the door.

I waited for bey to pull out before I made my way towards the entrance.

I took a deep breath before using my key to enter.

I had so many emotions running, that I was almost certain that I was going to flip over the slightest word.

I quickly pulled it together though, now was not the time to have a panic attack.

I walked farther into the house until I ended up in the kitchen, face to face with the person I was meeting after nine days of no communication.

"Hi mom." I spoke as I took a seat from across her at the kitchen table.

We sat in a uncomfortable silence, but I took that as my opportunity to view her over.

Her eyes were dark and puff almost as though she's had no sleep in days, and that probably caused the tears.

Her black hair was pulled up into a messy ponytail, which didn't help her appearance look any less bumish.

"Onika I have been calling and texting you for the past week, why haven't you come home? Or responded to me?" She croaked out.

You could hear all the hurt and stress in her words and voice.

We could have talked about the situation like adults that day, but we didn't plus she's the one who told me to leave.

"Mom I had to clear my mind and have some space before I responded to you. I have never in my life given you a reason to treat me how you did that day, and although I am in the wrong for some of that it didn't have to escalate like that."

"Well I apologize for what happened, but I'm not apologizing for what I said. You know that girl is no good for you." She stated calmly.

"Mom I came because you wanted me to talk with you, not about the person I'm with. Now I did my part and left like you said, but don't bring her up in this right now."

She crossed her arms over her chest as she looked me in my eyes. All that hurt that was once there was replaced with something else, but I couldn't quit figure it out.

"Onika I know you think I'm wrong for speaking about her how I did, but I told you to stay away from her for a reason. Not to ruin your happiness but to protect you from becoming heart broken. At the end of the day your still my daughter that I love."

"Mommy I'm almost grown. I have to figure this stuff out on my own, I can't keep coming to you about everything that could possibly hurt me. If I want to be with someone let me be with them. At the end of the day it's my choice who I let claim my heart."

She shook her head in disapproval as she stood to walk towards the window.

That's what she does when she doesn't have anything else to say to a person, so she thinks to her.
