PHOR~
I just finished a radio interview based on my upcoming album and I must say it feel good to be back in the studio and making music. The past few months haven't been the same with London. We wasn't getting a divorce but she said she wanted some time to herself. I know it was all because of me but I was fucked up in the head at the time. The stress wasn't something I experienced before.

I hopped in my ride as we headed back to my hotel. "Yo when you dropping the album?" My security asked

"It's set to be dropped in two weeks. Damn I gotta make sure everything is set up for the release party"

"Sounds like you need a assistant man"

"You might be right, I'll start looking in the morning"

We arrived back in the hotel and I dapped him up before we went to our own rooms "aye make sure you up man" he said before opening his door.

I laughed and opened mine. It was my fault that we missed a few flights because of me.

Feeling my phone vibrate, I reached into my pocket and slid the accept bar across the screen.

Malachi's popped up he was finally starting to look more like me now. 

"Hi dad"

I sat on the couch "Wassup man"

"Look what I got" he held up something he made for London since it was Mother's Day.

"That's raw son you probably got the best painting in the whole class"

"Thanks dad."

"Where is Charlotte?"

"She's taking a bath.. she's a crybaby dad why did you and mommy have a crybaby?"

I laughed he said whatever came to his mind. "You was a crybaby too" a incoming call from my manager came through

"Hold on Malachi I'll call you later"

"Okay bye dad" I seen London grab the phone to end the call. She never had anything to say to me besides dates and times to come get the kids. But with my current schedule I can't even worry about her right now. I scrolled through my DMs after posting my location all the women would flock to me. Tonight just might be the night I respond.

MALAYAH~

I shifted my weight onto my other leg and just stared at the picture of her on my office wall. It's been a while since my mother passed but I still haven't processed it. I wish I could take everything I said back, I wish I would've listened to her and just been closer to her. Today is Mother's Day and I really wished I could pick up the phone and tell her how amazing she is.

"Mrs.Henry?" one of the new hire artists broke my attention.

"Yes, I'm sorry"

" ohh no problem I was just wondering where should I sit my documents down.

I walked her closer to my desk "I can take them, thanks"

"No thank you Mrs.Henry.."

"You can call me Malayah"

"Okay" She leaned and looked at the picture on my desk of the kids "oh my god they are adorable. Happy Mother's Day"

I smiled "thanks so much Lexis"

The rest of my day was filled with me setting up events to host at our shop newest location grand opening. I was exhausted once I pulled up to the house. Locking the car and grabbing my bags I could just picture a nice hot bath and my bed. I opened the door and my mouth dropped to the floor. The entire front room was set up with balloons and flowers.

"Awwwn" I gazed at the decorations this is beautiful.

I didn't get to enjoy mothers day last year because of all of the dangerous shit we were in but this one feels special. There was a card on the counter inside Ryan wrote a cute message, as well as jayden and Imani just scribbled inside, these were the things that mattered the most to me.

"Happy Mothers Day" Ryan came behind me wrapping his arms around me.

"Thanks so much"

"I wasn't going to attempt to burn the house down I had one of the chefs i'm cool with cook us up something" I laughed

"that sounds lovely, where are the kids?" I followed him upstairs and into our room. Sighing I sat on the edge of the bed and took my heels off. Ryan grabbed my feet and started massaging them. I would be telling a lie if I said this didn't feel good.

"The kids sleep for the night"

music to my ears.

"But I ran you a bath come on"

He had the bathroom decorated with rose petals and candles, I guess he really did listen to me I've been complaining lately on how I haven't had any relaxation time to myself. I undressed and got in the tub.

"I feel like a old lady with my body aching like this"

"You think it's because you are over working yourself" Ryan said from the room.

It made me think was I really over working myself, I think im doing good for someone my age and with my responsibilities.

"Nah I mean.. I don't think so"

After I finished in the tub, we ate dinner and proceeded to the bedroom. There was a new pair of red bottoms waiting for me on the side of the bed. "Ohh my god!! yes, how did you know these were the ones I wanted?"

"Don't lie" I looked back at him

he laughed "Okay londyn told me but that doesn't matter"

I smiled and kissed him "you're right that's not what matters"

"You started looking at stuff for the wedding?"

"Londyn and I have seen some really cute places where we could have it, but then their is color scheme, food, music selections, decorations it's just all too much I think I'll hire a wedding planner to make this all easy for me" I laid my head on his chest. With us having to jump back into our regular lives it's like we never had time to just sit back and talk one on one anymore. It's always about work,money, kids.

"I feel you, just let me know what you want and I'll write the check"

I smiled "Ouuu my personal sugar daddy"

"Yeah well you gotta work for that check" He ran his hands up and down my body sending chills down my spine.

JOSIAH~

"I agree with Rose, the company can profit from this signing" I sat at the conference table going over a few options

"You're right we will review on our ends and will have a answer in the morning conference if that's okay with you all?"

I looked around the table and everyone nodded "That's is great"

"Perfect"

The meeting ended and everyone started to leave. I put my head back closed my eyes "Damn im tired"

"Something bothering you?" Rose spoke up.

"Nah im not bothered just been making it my focus to spend more time with my kids and wife" I always had to emphasize that I was married to Rose. Sometimes I felt like she was trying to throw herself at me and I wasn't trying to have anymore problems with Bri.

"Ohh" she rolled her eyes and exited the conference room.

"She a pretty one" One of the older business partner's said to me. He was always trying to hit on the new girls that we hired.

I nodded. "You couldn't handle her Paul we don't need you having a heart attack"

we laughed and left the room. I headed to my office and seen Bri inside with the kids

"What you doing here?"

"I wanted to come check up on my husband" Jr. came and gave me a hug. "Besides we were bored at home, I haven't seen your new office before" she looked around. "It's big as hell"

"yeah I know huh" we laughed and there was a knock at the door. Rose stood there with some files in her hand.

"Oh im so sorry, I just wanted to drop the files for the morning off" she came and sat them on the desk.

I looked at Bri was a staring at her and I cleared my throat "Rose this is my wife.."

"Briana" rose cut me off and Bri raised her eyebrow

Rose smiled "Josiah has told me so much about you and your beautiful children" she held her hand out and surprisingly Bri shook it.

"You're so lucky to have a man like him" she looked at me and winked.
