A Week Later

"Uh, why you parking? You can just drop me off." Messiah said as Beyoncé parked the car.

She looked at him and raised up her shades.

"You really thought I forgot about that report card." She said. "You might have lied about my vocals but I was dead serious about your grades."

"Ma, for real. You don't even have to worry about that. I took care of that. I'm good." He said.

"You are?" She asked.

"Yeah." He said.

"Good, let's go see." Beyoncé said opening the door.

Messiah sighed and got out.

"Ma, don't you need a body guard or something." He asked as they walked up to the school.

"What I need a bodyguard for when I got you?" She asked.

"I'm not gonna be with you all day." He said.

"Boy, I'm home. I ain't worried bout nothing." She said.

He shook his head.

"Hold up." He said walking in front of her.

He opened the door and let her walk in first.

"Thank you."

"Welcome."

"Aight, where your class boo?" She asked putting her shades up.

"Third floor."

"Third floor, y'all got an elevator?" She asked.

"No." He said laughing. "You gotta get a name tag first."

They went to the main office.

"Hi Ms. Johnson. My mama need a visitors pass." He said.

"Oh okay." Ms. Johnson and then eyed Beyoncé. "Hi Ms. Knowles, it's been a while since I've seen you."

Beyoncé caught the shade and put it right in her back pocket. Messiah saw the shade coming and held on to Beyoncé's left hand.

Beyoncé gave Ms. Johnson a fake smile while she signed and didn't say anything.

"Alright, bye Messiah." Ms. Johnson said.

"Bye." He said as they walked out the office.

Messiah looked at Beyoncé as they walked towards the stairs and then busted out laughing.

"She tried-"

"Let it go Messiah." Beyoncé said as they walked up the steps.

"Jesus, you climb these steps every day?"

"Yeah."

They finally made it to that floor.

"Messiah, what's that?" Beyoncé said.

"Huh?"

"Huh? You said there was no elevator." She said.

"It's not for students." He said shrugging.

"I'm not no damn student." She said.

They walked towards Messiahs class and he opened the door for her and she walked in first. The class went silent when they saw Beyoncé standing there. Some kids mouth was hanging open and the teacher looked surprised.

Messiah led his mother over to the teacher.

"Ms. Reid. This my mama, she wanted to see you."

"Hi Ms. Knowles." Ms. Reid said shaking her hand. "Nice to meet you."
