Family Secrets

True Identity

Bianca Finally Got Off I-55 North Heading Back Into To St. Louis. With Everything That Was Going On In Her Life And Finding Out That Black Was The One Supplying Her Mother Drugs All This Time, She Needed A Break From Chicago. She Made An Appointment To See Dr. Andrews To Check On The Baby, In Hopes Of Hearing A Heartbeat Or Something To Boost Her Spirits. She Was Only Eight Weeks, But She Was Already Starting To Show A Little Bit. She Wished Reno Could've Came With Her On This Journey, But He Was Dead To Her At This Point. She Knew It Was A Reason Why He Never Wanted To Meet Her Mother. It Would've Given Away The Fact That He Was Her Supplier. How Could She Have Been So Naive.

She Pulled Into The Parking Lot Of Her Doctors' Office. Once She Gathered Her Things, She Got Out And Proceeded To Walk Through The Sliding Doors. She Hadn't Thought To Call This Time, So She Stopped At The Registration Desk To Check In. A Dark Haired Woman Handed Her A Clipboard And 3 Sheets Of Paper To Full Out. Bianca Wasn't A Fan Of The Checking In Process, Because They Always Asked Questions About Family History. She Didn't Know Too Much. She Knew That Mental Illness Ran In Her Family, But As Far As Any Other Health Issues She Didnt Know.

Not to Long After Bee Finished Turning In The Papers, Dr. Andrews Appeared In The Doorway.

"Look At You Starting To Get A Little Pudge," She Smirked Looking At Bianca.

"Yeah, No More Crop Tops And Cute Ratchet Clothes For Me." Bianca Rolled Her Eyes "Dressing Like a Mom Is Hard. You Don't Have Energy To Dress Cute So You Just Grab Anything." She Said Pointing Out Her Outfit. She Had On A Simple Pair Of Black Leggings, That Complimented Her Hips, With A Fitted White Tee, That Hugged Her Breast And Waist, And A Pair Of Black Air Force Ones With A Matching Black SnapBack.

"Girl Please," Dr. Andrews Laughed. "Now Come On Back Here So We Can Get You Looked At."

After Leaving The Doctors Office Bianca Headed Back To Her House. She Had Packed All Of Her Stuff From The Hotel Up In Chicago And Was Dropping It Off At Home Before Going Back. She Was Still Going To Move Her Mom Back To The Lou, But She Had To Make Sure She Was Clean. She Pulled Into Her Driveway And Noticed Three Medium Sized Orange Envelopes On Her Front Porch. As She Got Out And Proceeded To Pick Them Up She Noticed They Were From The Police Station, The Probate Court Office, And Her Mother. Why Would I Have A Letter From My Mother When She Could Have Just Called Me? And What Are These? She Asked Herself Referring To The Other Two Envelopes. She Slid Them In Her Purse And Started Putting Her Things Back Into The House.

"Ayo Black, What You Thinking About Man?," Marco Asked Passing Him The Strawberry Flavored Rellos.

"I'm Just Thinking About All The Shit I Had To Go Through As A Kid. My Mama Abandoned Me, Then Came Back Around And Tried To Rape Me. My BestFriend Died." Black Shook His Head As He Briefly Reflected On His Childhood.

"Man Enough Of All This Feeling Shit," Black Said Leaning Forward. "I'm Waiting On Bianca Ass To Call Me. I Set Everything Up Just Right. I Even Called Si'Mone Ass And Acted Concerned Saying I Noticed Her Daughter Leaving The House And Thought She Should Come Back To Get Their Stuff Before The City Got It. You Know Her Ass Believe Anything. Once Bee Come Back I Can Finally Put My Final Plan Into Motion."

Black Took A Long Drag Of His Neatly Rolled Blunt And Then Passed It Back To Marco.

Once Bee Finished Putting Everything Back Into Place, She Grabbed The Three Envelopes And Read Them. Starting With The One From The Probate Office.

"Hello, Ms. Wilson. I Stopped By A Few Times To Check On You, But You Weren't Home. I Hope You Got In Touch With Your Mother And Everything Worked Out For You. You Really Deserve The World After Everything You've Gone Through, I Hope One Day We'll Speak Again. I'll Leave My Business Card With This Letter. Give Me A Call. Maybe We Can Have Lunch."
