Angel Reese-Johnson
_________

"At what point in your life did you realize that things were serious?" my interviewer Joe asked before I begin to think

"Probably graduating college, I think being out of school was my official reality check. It was serious before that, but things got more intense"

"More responsibility, right?"

"A little, not really, it was more so that I felt like an actual adult. When I graduated, my mom let my hand go completely"

"She threw you off to the wolves" I laughed a little because that's not what I said

Incorrect translation.

"No, she just wanted to give me that space. Of course she was still being a mom. She just wasn't in my ear about a lot of stuff"

"Okay, so you're a full adult. What's next?"

"I was a little nervous, um, I didn't go to the WNBA. I just wanted to tend to my career, and that's what I did. That's when everything took off, I flourished. Here I am"

"Now, you have three businesses, you're a model, and it's more under your belt" he said before I nodded, "How do you manage all that with your personal life?"

"I'm gonna be real, I invested in people. I have a person for everything" he looked surprised before we both laughed

"Really?"

"I mean, I'm only one person. I'm a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, and more. I can't do it all by myself while dealing with everything else"

"Yeah, I understand. So, what is an off day like for Angel Reese?" he asked while smiling a little

"I'm in the house with my family, relaxing"

"Sounds about right, that's the right way to do it" he agreed with me before I nodded

I left going back to my hotel as soon as the interview was over. I'm in Florida working, 'll be working here for the next two days.

The whole house wanted to come, and I regret letting them come.

"Come here" I picked a crying Junior up before kissing him, "You want me to beat her up?"

He nodded before I looked at Flau'jae, who was looking unbothered. I sat on the bed with him in my lap before wiping his face.

I came in and he was crying, he's upset because Flau'jae yelled at him. I can't even get settled and change my clothes first without the bullshit

It's always something.

"Junior need to be quiet" Naeluh said before I snapped my finger at her

"You need to stop being womanish with all that mouth. Play your tablet and leave him alone" I said before she did as told

"I'm coming back" Flau'jae said while getting off the bed before I took a deep breath

"No cause I know what you finna go do" I said causing her to look at me, "I'm gonna throw that stuff in the trash"

"If you throw my weed in the trash, I'm setting the building on fire. I swear to god. I need to hit this real bad, I'm telling you to let me be"

Real bad?

"But I just got back in, and I'm already dealing with chaos" she gave me a unbelievable look

"Your kids, your kids?"

"I'm not saying it like that, I'm not. I'm just saying can I change and wind down before you go do that?"

"Ang —"
