Hakeem's POV

I woke up and notice Tiana lying next to me. I was confused because I thought we were getting a divorce.

"What are you doing here?" I asked with a confused look on my face.

"Umm this is my bed and I live here." Tiana responded.

"What about the condo?" I questioned.

"Condo?" "Babe what are you talking about?" Replied Tiana.

"It's just..." I drifted off not finishing my sentence.

"You okay babe?" Tiana replied with a smile on her face.

"Yes now that I have you here with me." I smiled back.

"Come here." Tiana replied as she motioned me to come closer and kisses me.

I held her in my arms as I took all of her in.

"Dad" "Dad!" "Dad wake up."

I slowly opened my eyes and notice Bella standing in front of me.

"Dad the paparazzi are out there again." "They have me blocked in." "I need to be at Empire." Bella complained.

"Dad!" Bella called out again.

"Okay, okay just give me a minute." "I'll tell them to leave."

Bella stood there in silence.

"Okay well can you give me some privacy and allow me to put some pants on." I responded.

"Fine just make sure they leave." Bella replied leaving the room.

So it was all a dream. Tiana wasn't here with me. I rubbed my face feeling defeated.

I sighed as I put pants on and rushed downstairs.

Bella and Prince were in the foyer.

"Dad they're taking pictures." Bella responded.

"How long have they been here?" I questioned.

"Since this morning." Bella responded.

I headed out the front door as Bella and Prince followed behind me.

"If y'all don't leave, I'm calling the police." I yelled out.

"Hakeem did you and Tiana call it quits?" One of them asked.

"I'm warning y'all, get the fuck off my property." I said aggressively.

They continue to take pictures.

Prince went back inside and activated the sprinklers.

"We're all wet!" One of them yelled.

"Y'all heard my Dad, LEAVE!" Prince and Bella yelled.

They finally left.

We all headed back inside.

"Well that's gonna look real good in the blogs." We all laughed.

"Really dude?" "The sprinklers?" Bella laughed.

"They're lucky it wasn't an ak 47." Replied Prince.

"Those nosy heffas made me late." "Dre is gonna be pissed. Bella sighed.

"No worries, I'll call him and explain everything ." I replied.

Bella left and headed to Empire leaving me and Prince alone.

"Son I've been meaning to ask, what are your plans?"
