Davina’s eyes widened in shock as Lyric’s hand connected with her cheek. The first slap had been more of a surprise than anything, but the second slap sent her reeling. She stumbled back, clutching her cheek and staring at Lyric in disbelief.

“Lyric, what are you doing?” Leonardo exclaimed, his voice full of alarm.

Lyric glared at Davina, her eyes flashing with anger. “I can and I just did,” she snapped.

As Davina’s eyes began to water, she snarled, “You’ll pay for this, you’ll regret the day you ever met me!” She lunged at Lyric, trying to scratch at her face, but Lyric easily ducked out of the way.

“Please stop this!” Leonardo shouted, grabbing Davina by the arms and pulling her back.

“Let me go Leo! I’ve to put this fool in her place!” Davina yelled

Davina looked around the room, her eyes wild and her breathing heavy.

Anger burning in his eyes, Leonardo grabbed Davina by the arm and began to drag her toward the door. “You should leave!”” he said through gritted teeth,dragging her out forcefully.

Lyric rolled her eyes secretly, before turning back to the board members.

“I’m really sorry for the interruption, should we proceed?” She asks.

“Of course, Mrs Lyric happy to listen to all you have for us!” Mr Brown replied, and Mr Ling nodded in affirmation too.

Lyric bowed with a smile, before resuming what she was saying.

❃✧❃✧❃

Leonardo was fuming as he dragged Davina out of his office and into the hallway.

“Let me go Leo! You’re hurting me!!” Davina struggled against him, trying to free herself from his grips as Leonardo dragged her roughly to the nearest elevator.

“Let me go! You’re hurting me for real!_” Davina snapped as Leonardo finally release her after they got to the front of an elevator.

“Do I look like her care? What exactly do you want from me? What gave you the right to slap her?” Leonardo demanded angrily.

“I did it cos she crossed the line when she lied she’s your girl so I can leave the other day, so she deserves it! How can you allow her to slap me back? This isn’t the Leo I know, you should fire her for what she did!!”

“Don’t tell me what to do cos you are totally a stranger to me! Do we even know each other?” Leonardo smirked, and she suddenly leaned in and tried to kiss him. He pushed her away, shocked and angry. “What the hell are you doing?” he demanded.

“I’m saying I still love you, Leonardo! I’m still in love with you and I want us to get back together!” Davina yelled and tries to hold him but l He pushed her into the elevator and hit the button for the ground floor. As the doors closed, Davina yelled, “You’ll be sorry, you’ll see! I’ll make you regret this! You’ll surely want me back!”

But Leonardo was already gone, stalking off down the hallway, his face flushed with anger.

He pushed her into the elevator and hit the button for the ground floor. As the doors closed, Davina yelled, “You’ll be sorry, you’ll see! I’ll make you regret this!”

<30 MINUTES LATER>

Lyric walked into Leonardo’s office, her heart pounding. She knew she had to apologize for slapping Davina, even though she had only been defending herself.

“Sir,” she began nervously, “I’m sorry for the way I acted earlier. I know it was inappropriate, and I promise it won’t happen again.”

Leo looked up from his desk, his expression unreadable.

“It’s okay, I understand you were trying to defend yourself!” He said, and Lyric smile.

“It’s late, you should be on your way…” Leonardo added.

“I’ll,, goodnight sir ” She bowed before walking out.

<9PM••MOUNT BAR>

Gianna was sitting at the bar, nursing a ÇOçktail. She ran here immediately she left Marvel cafe,and she just wanted to relax and forget about her problems.

Moving on from Ryder wasn’t easy,but she had to do it anyway.

As she sipped her drink, she noticed someone taking the seat next to her. She looked over and saw that it was Dean.

“Hey, miss physcho!” he said, flashing her a smile. “Mind if I join you?”

“Yes, so much!” Gianna replied drunkenly, not bothering to hide her annoyance.

Dean just smile and took the seat anyway.

Dean paused for a moment, then said, “I’m not going to lie. I was hoping to run into you. We haven’t been getting along too well since we met” Dean said, choosing his words carefully.

Gianna’s eyebrows shot up in surprise.

“I want us to be friends if that’s okay with you” He said in a low but flirty tone.

Gianna regarded him skeptically, taking a long sip of her drink. “Just let me be, Mr pervert! I don’t want anything to do with any guy for now, the last thing I need right now is a guy in my life ” she said, her voice still cold.

“I understand your skepticism,” Dean said, leaning forward here. I’m willing to do wh@tëver it takes to make this work. Can you give me a chance to prove myself?”
slightly. “But I’m being serious

Gianna scoffed, standing up to her feet, she staggered and Dean made to help her but she shot him a glare.

“Don’t you dare go after me! I’m serious… or I’ll really sue you” She said seriously and began heading out.

“So how’s it? Do you get her to be your friend?” Pierce asked, behind Dean..

“No, but giving up is not in my dictionary” He smirked.

When Lyric walked through the door after a long day at work,

she was immediately greeted by two little voices calling out,
“Mommy, mommy!” The kids, Pearl and Starr, came running into the hallway to meet her, their faces full of excitement.

“Hi, babies!” Lyric said, scooping them both up in a big hug. “How was your day?”

“We had so much fun!” Starr exclaimed, wiggling in her mom’s arms. “We drew pictures, and we played outside, and we had ice cream!”

“Granny Lupe made it for us” Peal added, sucking her lower lips.

“Wow, you two had quite the busy day!” Lyric said, laughing as she set them back down on the couch

“I’m glad you had so much fun. Let’s get you cleaned up for dinner.You must have stressed her out all day! So what do you say we have some mac and cheese tonight?”

Pearl and Starr squealed with delight at the mention of their favorite food. They both nodded In confirmation.

“I’ll set the table, wash your hands first ok….” They didn’t allow her finish the word before running off to the bathroom to wash their hands.

Lyric smiled as she watched them go, feeling a rush of gratitude for these two wonderful little people who had brought so much joy into her life.

Soon, they both came rushing and slowly drew out chairs for both.

She dished out thier meal and kids started digging in at once.

“Mom we have a request!” Pearl suddenly stated.

“Is it about my CEO? I dunno really know too much about him,but I’ll surely show you his pics if I found one,since he’s famous?” Lyric said.

“YAY!!!” The kids squealed.

“Mommy, can we go to the mall tomorrow?” Starr asked as she dried her hands with a towel. “We want to go to the toy store!”

“And the candy store!” Pearl added, her eyes shining with anticipation. “Please, mommy, can we go?”

Lyric hesitated, considering their request. She knew it would be a lot of work to take them to the mall, but she also knew how much they loved it. “I’ll tell you what,” she said, a smile playing on her lips.

“If you two finish your dinner, and then help me clear the table and do the dishes, we’ll go to the mall tomorrow morning,” Lyric said, feeling a bit mischievous as she laid out her terms.

Pearl and Starr looked at each other, their eyes wide.

“Deal!” they said in unison, and ran back to the table to finish their dinner

Lyric laughed, feeling pleased that her plan had worked. As she watched her kids dig into their mac and cheese, she felt a surge of pride and love.

❃✧❃✧❃

Lyric and her kids walked through the front doors of the mall, excited to start their shopping adventure. They wandered through the aisles of the toy store, looking at all the different toys and games on display.

The kids were having a blast, picking out their favorites and chattering excitedly.

“Mommy, look at this cool robot!” said Starr, pointing to a robotic toy on the shelf.

Lyric turned to look, smiling at her son’s enthusiasm. “That is pretty cool,” she said.

Suddenly, Lyric’s phone started to ring. She pulled it out of her pocket, glancing at the screen to see who was calling.

“A minute babies!” She whispered before swiping green, backing the kids.

As Lyric answered the phone, her kids began to wander off in different directions, exploring the toy store on their own. Lyric’s attention was focused on the call, and she didn’t notice that her kids were getting farther and farther away.

Meanwhile, Pearl and Starr were wandering through the aisles of the toy store, looking at all the different toys and games.

Pearl spotted a phone toy that she really liked, and reached out to grab it. But just as she did, Starr also reached for the same toy.

Their hands collided, and they both pulled on the doll, trying to get it for themselves.

The two were pulling on the doll with all their might, neither one willing to let go.

Soon,they began to argue, each one insisting that the doll was theirs.

“Let go, Pearl!” Starr shouted. “It’s mine!”

Pearl wouldn’t budge. “No, it’s mine!” she yelled back. “I saw it first!”

They continued to pull and tug, until, a tall figure loomed over the girls, and they both looked up in surprise.

It was Leonardo, standing there with his arms crossed and a stern look on his face. “What’s going on here?” he asked, his voice deep and authoritative.

The kids looked at each other, releasing the toy at once.

“Who are you? You look really handsome!” Pearl was the first to speak.

“Seriously? What do kids like you know about handsome?” Leonardo chuckles.

Pearl was about replying when they heard a familiar voice from behind voice from behind.

“Mommy!!!” They both rushed to her, and Leonardo looks up, at thier direction.
