Before Bette could get up to see what was going on Angelica walks into the living room.

“Hey.”

“Angelica, what are you doing home?”

“Hey Momma T, “Angelica says giving her a hug and kiss and then doing the same to Bette.

“I came home to check on Aunt Tasha.”

“How long have you been home?”

“Oh, not long just a few days.”

“A few days!”

“Yeah, “Angelica says not understanding why her parents were making a big deal about it.

“I am tired of your ass sneaking in and out of town and when you do were always the last ones to know about it.”

“Momma B, I’m sorry but I——–, “Angelica tries to continue but is cut off by Tina.

“Where did you stay?”

“At Aunt Tashas with Aunt Al.”

“Wait you and Alice were under the same roof?”

“Yeah, we had a long talk.”

“So is everything okay between you guys, “Bette asked.

“Everything is more than okay.”

“I’m glad because I have to be honest with you after that big blow up I was worried about you two.”

“I didn’t know Aunt Al was going through all that mess with Clea and to be honest I don’t know if I will ever forgive myself for how I treated her.”

Looking at Angelica lovingly, “Awwww, baby you will, “Tina says.

“It just sucks Tasha is sitting in jail Clea is the one that needs to be locked up.”

“Aunt Tasha isn’t in jail.”

“Uh, Angelica yes she is she is the one that assaulted Clea she beat her up pretty badly didn’t Alice tell you?”

“Yeah she told me but Aunt Tasha has been released already.

“Wait huh, “Bette says.

“The lawyer Aunt Al hired said that all the charges had been dropped.”

“Well did he say why?”

“Nope just said that they were dropped and that she was free to go. Me and Aunt Al were talking in Aunt Tasha bedroom and the next thing we knew Aunt Tasha was standing in the doorway.”

“OMG that is great news!”

“Yeah I’m glad she’s out too hey look I want to shower and lay down for a few, “Angelica says standing up.

“Okay baby let us know if you need anything, “Bette says.
