Chapter seventeen

December 20, 1982

"Jermaine go tell the kids to come inside and tell to go to the room" Joseph voice was low, Michael was scared right along with me. I knew how him and his father was, I've seen it with my own two eyes.

Jermaine rushed out the room telling the kids to come inside, they were sad as they walked inside "Hey uncle Mike" His nieces and nephews said smiling

"Hey" He smiled at them "Hey Tete" My twin nephews Brandon and Brayden kissed my cheek before leaving to go upstairs

"Michael you two come sit down" My mom didn't look my way she just pointed to the chair that we sitting at. Michael picked me up bridal style carrying me over to the chair, sitting us both down with me in his lap

"Michael you got the damn girl pregnant michael!?" His father shouted, I flinched "What about your career?! haven't you thought about that?!" Michael balled up his fist breathing heavily with his mouth parted

"Calm down Joseph" Katherine tried to calm her husband down but it was no good he was still going on and on. "Angela Diana Woodland. I raised you better than this" My father sternly said pointing his finger at me

"For gods sake you just started college so what the hell are you going to do? stopping going to school and mess up your career?" His voice became louder

"Daddy don't you think I KNOW THAT?! I'm going to keep going to school! no one and I MEAN no one and stopping from getting an education!" I shouted back at him

Tears were streaming down my face "Stop yelling! this is OUR life! I'm going to make sure my child and my future wife is okay! she's going to get her education and continue making music!" Michael was aggravated with everyone

"Angela you're getting an abortion" My mother said "Says who?" I stopped crying looking at her like she has lost her damn mind

"I'm not getting rid of my child. It makes two to make a kid and we for sure made this child with love." I let out a cackle "Michael is not going to ruin his career. He's a grown ass man he can handle is own" I added

"You will obey us Angela! You WILL get an abortion!" My parents were shouting going back and forth "I'm not going to keep hearing the same thing. I'm not abandoning my child so you two can live off me and my career because you can't live off your other kids" I went got up leaving to go upstairs

"Where do you think you're going?" My mother asked me "Going to get my things of course" I spoke calmly

My father got up standing in my path, pushing me back "You do NOT put your damn hands on her" Michael shouted at my dad. He put me behind him and keeping my father away from me.

"Angela if you want to leave go head! Just don't come back when your life goes downhill with your child. LEAVE!" Charles pointed to the door, I looked at him with anger eye rushing past him grabbing my jacket leaving out the house


"Michael you've laid your bed so lay in it." Joseph put his hand on Michael's shoulder, "I'll be better father to my child than the both of you are to your own damn kids!" Michael stared at the two fathers

He rolled his eyes huffing. "I'm not gonna be at home for a while" He planted a kiss on his Mothers cheek, He stared at his father before rushing out the door chasing after Angela

Angela friends and siblings also came out behind with him. Angela was leaning against the car wiping her face, she looked up seeing Michael and her family behind him.

Antonio was lost for words about his little twin sister, he didn't know what to say. Heather parted her mouth to saying something that made Angela look up "Angela are you sure you want to go through with this?"

Angela laid on Michael's chest nodding her head "Yes..I can handle everything that comes to me unexpectedly. But right now i can't handle being around them right now" Angela's voice was low from the shouting and crying

Antonio came over, Michael backed away. "Michael I see you as a brother and I know you love my sister. As much as i should be upset with you but I can't..Angel Im disappointed and hurt but knowing you..you can get through whatever so if having this child is something you want Im all for it" Antonio's voice cracked, Staring at Me and Angela with glossy eyes

"Take care of her and If yall need anything me and Gina will be here for the both of you" He said mentioning his girlfriend, Michael nodded pulling Antonio in a bro hug

"I promise you that I will protect the both of them" I said, Angela joined in the hug and the rest of them did too

Erika had tears falling down her face "Angel you know I love you like a little sister so seeing this happening to you is too much to take in" She said trying to wipe her face but tears kept falling down, Tina rubbed her back

"Do you know where y'all are gonna go?" We heard Jermaine asked walking towards us with the rest of his brothers "No" I said sighed

This whole situation was just blown out of proportion. I understand their concerns about Angela's pregnancy, we're concerned too.

"You two can live at this beach house me and my husband purchased three years ago. It's in Malibu" My sister was digging in her bag and pulled out the keys and a paper

Angela went over to her sister giving her a big hug "Thank you Heather". Heather smiled sniffing rubbing Angela's head

Jermaine popped his lips making a sound "So my little brother is starting a family?" His face was in shock with a smile plastered "I remember he was just nervous to talk to a girl. Angela gave him a push and confidence" Jackie laughed

I cringed, scratching the back of my head embarrassingly "Please guys don't start" I said, "You know we support you all the way Mike. Just come visit us or we'll come visit you" Jermaine said

I nodded smiling at everyone with Angela back wrapped around me. "We appreciate all of your support. Heather thank you" Heather nodded

"We're going to be on our way now. We'll give you a call when we get there" I opened the door for Angela , She stepped inside but looked back "Don't worry girls I'll come to the office tomorrow to record our music" She said before getting inside
