NICKI POV 

I just honestly couldn't bring myself to stay. I didn't really know how to feel after what almost happened. 
I just figured that I should go home. So I did go back inside with Beyoncé while I waited for my Uber. Once she wasn't paying attention I successfully snuck out from under her nose. 
Chance and Lauren did a pretty good job of keeping her occupied. Later during the night she sent me a text asking where I was but I ignored it. 
When I got home I took a shower and put my phone on silent before going to bed. 
I woke up the next morning to my phone vibrating on the night stand. I wiped the sleep from my eyes putting the phone close enough to my face to see the caller ID. 
I took a deep sigh before answering. 
"Hello ?" I said into the phone. 
"Hey Nic I'm outside can you buzz me up" I heard Ming's voice casually say. 
I smacked my teeth against my lip before fighting the air and getting up. 
I left out of my room and went into the living room so I could buzz her up into the apartment. 
A few moments later I hear knocking at the door. 
I dragged my feet all the way to the door and opened it and walked off back to my room. 
"Ma know you here ?!" I yelled out of the room.
"No. Nic I need a break from her." She said back loud enough to hear. 
"Call her and tell her where you at I don't need her popping up!" I replied before getting back into bed. 
Just as I was starting to drift off again I heard my phone vibrating again. 
I feel sighed through my nostrils before looking at the caller ID. Great. 
"Yes mama?" I answered the phone annoyed. 
"Is your sister there? She said she was but she didn't put you on the phone." 
"Yes she here ma lighten up on her some." I replied back sleepily. 
" I was light on you and now look at you won't be expecting any biological grandchildren." 
It was too early to hear her opinions on my life choices. 
"You kno what ma I'll drop her off soon as I get up." I said before hanging up. 
I turned my phone off before going to back to sleep I needed at least one more hour. 
When I finally got up I did my morning routine and showered before going into the living room. 
"So what she do now?" I plopped onto the couch with Ming and cuddled her.
"Nic it's like she trying to live my life for me. I can't do anything." She leaned her head against mine. 
"Trust me boo I know exactly what you're going through." I hugged her tighter. 
"Gotta suck it up till college. Speaking of have you decided on a major yet?" 
"Not yet but can we get food I'm starving." She quickly changed the subject. 
"Girl you got food money?" I asked her. 
"No but you do, you got a job." 
"Chile I'm living off a teacher's salary." I joked and got up.
"Come on let's go before yo mama show up over here." I grabbed my keys from by the door and Ming followed behind me. 
I took her to a local breakfast cafe.
