Mikaela
I stood looking at that shaderoom post for the longest.
I observed every detail of it. He was wearing a yellow sweater with red print which he'd bought in Vancouver. Also the kitchen cupboards in the background were those we had at our house in Miami- I'd picked them myself so I knew it anywhere. It was definitely him.
"Miky," Dawn said softly but I didn't budge.
How could he do this was all I kept thinking.
@AugustAlsina this is some b.s! How your daughter missing but you fxckin around.
Happy birthdayyyyy @Mikaela_Mont you prolly brought dis on yourself.
@miraclewatts just cuz his daughter missing dont mean he wants you to call him daddy hoe!
I read a few of the comments, and saw that people were going in not only on August and his hoe but at me as well, for God knows what.
I felt a wave of emotion but no tears could fall. I was all cried out...but inside I was screaming.
Dawn closed her eyes and shook her head, before turning right around and leaving the kitchen.
"Mik-" Kyanne tried to say but I held up a hand signaling that she wouldn't speak.
"Excuse me," I said before making my way out the kitchen. For some reason I felt outright embarrassed. My entire family had basically just found out August was in Miami with some other girl on my birthday.
*********
August
"See ya later Noe," I said as she waved T and I goodbye.
We'd just gotten back from the airport so we dropped ha home.
"My place?" T said
"Yeah I'm just gon' put down ma bags then head on to join da search party," I told him as he pulled away from Noelle's driveway.
We drove in silence as I just continued lookin out da window.
T's apartment wasn't all dat far, so about 20 minutes later we made it thea.
We got out da vehicle as T popped da trunk to get our bags. I helped him by placin ma carry on on da pavement, as I got ta thinkin.
"You coming?" He finally looked over and asked when he realized I was still posted up on da side of da whip.
I sighed softly, " I can't man,"
He gave a small smile.
"go on and make things right goon" He said understandin' why I was no longer gon' stay at his crib.
I nodded as he tossed me da car keys and I hopped into da driver's seat.
On our ride over hea I really got ta thinking.
Today was Kaela birthday and despite how I felt, I knew I needed to go see her... everything been fucked up lately but I didn't have it in me to not go be wit her on her birthday.
I knew a gift at this moment was pointless so I'd just go home and apologize, at least be thea' like I haven't been fa some time na'.
Ma phone rang interruptin ma train of thought.
"What up woadie?" I greeted Marvin.
"Aug man, I followed Miky's ole man to a garage earlier. He seem ta have exchanged his van for an even older ass box truck. Now He headin fa da interstate" ma boy Marv explained hurriedly.
"Dat nigga tryna leave town," I said.
"Whea yall at na'?"
I heard ma phone beep signaling a call waitin but I was too caught up in Marv's directions ta care.
"Aight, I'm on ma way" I stated befo we ended da call.
I checked and saw it was ma manager callin but I ain't have da time ta call back right then. I threw ma phone onto da passenger seat as I gassed da vehicle.
*********************
I met up wit Marv off of da highway whea he'd told me.
"Whea he at?" I jumped out of da vehicle and looked around thinkin he'd stopped him.
"I lost him," he said shakin his head
"Fuck you mean you lost him nigga?" I asked gettin a bit agitated.
"I ain't realised it but in tryna keep up wit da nigga I went over da speed limit. Da police pulled me over fa bout 10 minutes," he said," I'm sorry man"
I placed both hands on ma head in frustration.
"Aight If he went north then he headin to South Carolina...Imma have ma nigga Benna on him. He couldn't have made it cross da state line yet," I spoke more to ma self.
I pulled out ma phone ignoring da missed calls from D as I messaged Benna. He replied me dat he was on it as soon as I gave him da license plate number.
"You gon go ta South Carolina after him?" Marv asked.
I shook ma head, " nah. I told Benna ta bring him ta me"
Marv and I left following dat. It was almost midday by na' and I still had ta get home.

Mikaela
After cancelling my phone interview with CNBC I went back to my room, just wanting to be alone.
Everyone else had gone on to help the search party except my mom, who had come up to check on me about an hour earlier.
There was a knock on the door as I held onto a pillow in my arms.
"Mom I'm fine," I said just loud enough so she could hear from across the door.
A couple seconds of silence went by, when the knock got louder.
I sighed deeply as I went to unlock the door for her. To my surprise it wasn't her.
"Hey," he spoke softly as a small smile made its way across his face.
************
SMACK!
Was all I heard then I felt da sting of Mikaela's hand cross ma face.
I blinked a few times in confusion. I know I'd been treating ha like shit lately but dat slap packed a whole lot of power behind it.
"Kaela-"
"SHUT UP. Just SHUT. UP." She raised ha voice at me sayin, " you could have just left me August! Instead you go out and sleep with that bitch on my birthday???"
"Sleep? What da hell you talkin bout?" I asked still lost to da entire situation.
"Youre such a fucking liar! Told me she was just some random yet youre fucking her!! Then having her post this shit so I could see!" She yelled as she threw ha iphone full forced at me.
I moved out da way in da nick of time as it hit da wall beside me.
"You're such a fucking fraud," she said as she turned away sayin.
I looked down at da now cracked phone screen but saw exactly what she was talkin bout.
Miracle must've snapped a pic with ma pants down when I'd covered ma eyes, cause she'd posted dat shit on ha snapchat. Now here it was on some blog site.
"It's not what-" I began sayin as I walked over ta her
"-what it looks like?" She finished ma sentence for me wit sarcasm in her voice.
"Yes." I urged, " I didn't sleep wit ha Kaela. and I'm not lyin to you bout that"
She was distraught by now and didn't seem like she believed a word I'd been sayin.
"Then why the FUCK was she in the house you supposedly sold taking pics of your dick August!!!"
I was unable to explain that much right then. It was a stupid ass move ta invite ha over and even dumber in agreein ta show ha ma print.
"It's a long story whea I was bein a stupid muufucker but I need you to trust me dat I ain't did shit with her," I tried holdin onto ha hands so she could see I was bein genuine but she pushed me away.
"Trust you? When you keep doing shit to make me not?" her lips quivered
"All you've been doing is pushing me away lately August. When I've needed you most you continually blamed me and shut me out....you know what, just go" she finished with tears trickling down ha cheeks
"I know I've been a real asshole but I've never cheated on you. Please ma, you gotta believe me if it's only this one time. You can ask Noelle ya s-" I pleaded with ha
"Get out August," she said softly but I could hear da hurt in ha voice.
I bit ma bottom lip not wantin ta leave, but I knew anything I said right now she wasn't gon believe anyway.
I slowly backed out of our bedroom, leavin out. I knew I'd definitely fucked up......
***********
The following day
Mikaela
I let the warm water from the shower run over me as I stood there.
My life was falling apart before me and I had absolutely no control over it.
After drying off, I realised that ever since Dawn left the kitchen yesterday morning I'd never heard from her.
I decided to call her up.
"Hey boo. How you holding up?" Dawn asked
"D? Where are you? Cha and Kyanne told me they haven't seen you since everything yesterday." I questioned her
"Uhh..I'm on my way back," she replied
"Back?"
"I went to Houston...to see my cousin Sequithea" she said to me.
"Houston?? Dawn don't tell me you did what I think you did" I said suspiciously
"What??? I told you since that tweet we should go to H-town and beat The Whore-Acle ass. Yesterday after seeing you like that, I couldn't stand it. So me an Sequi popped up on Ms Miracle Whip." She went on, " and when I get back to Atlanta best believe I'm gon fuck up Otto Rocket Alsina. He can try suing ma ass after, but he gon get these hands for hurting you like this"
"Dawnn. You know what happened last time you beat a girl's ass. I don't want you getting in trouble on my behalf this time!" I scolded her
"Chill. I ain't touch the hoe. I let Sequi do it, I was just holdin da camera...since she like posting shit on the Internet Imma put this on Worldstar. But Imma show you first,"
I smirked not knowing what I was gonna do with Dawn.
"Miky??! MIKAELA!!" I heard a frantic voice calling to me
"D I gotta go." I said as I ended the call.
"Mikaela! !!" Another voice got closer calling to me.
I walked out of the bathroom wondering what all the yelling was about. "Yeah?!"
My mother and Tammy made it to the door of my bedroom simultaneously, both out of breath from running up the stair case.
"Baby, They found Brie!" My mother blurted out.
*******************
Okey dokey
Now before you guys go in on Miky, think of it from her view. Eh?
If you're man been pushing you away then you see a compromising photo of him posted by another chick, you wouldn't be tryna hear what he saying. Obviously you'd think he cheated on you.
Anywho
Mr Montgomery fleeing town??
Miky's reaction to it all. Should she have listened to August or believe him?
And they found our baby Brie??!!!!
