~The Miller's and Teena were watching a movie. Dyamond was sitting on VoShonne's lap and Teena was leaning on his side.~
Teena: Baby?
VoShonne: Wassup?
Teena: Wanna do me a favor?
VoShonne: What?
Teena: Go to the store and get me some ice cream. ~smiling in his face~
VoShonne: Why? It's 10:00 pm.
Teena: Cuz your son is hungry. Please!
Dyamond: Yeah, please Daddy.
VoShonne: You too? ~Dyamond shakes her head~ Aight, what y'all want?
Teena: Aww thank you boo. I want a half-gallon of snickers ice cream and a bag of cooler ranch Doritos.
VoShonne: And you miss lady?
Dyamond: I want a snickers Daddy.
VoShonne: Aight, I'll be right back.
~VoShonne got his keys, hopped in Teena's blue Navigator, and went to the store. He was at the check out line when 3 niggas walked in.~
Nigga #1: Silkk, my nigga. Wuz up?
VoShonne: Sup Mike? ~walking towards the door~
Nigga #2: Yo Deon you see that? That nigga blew us off.
Deon: Yeah Tre. I seen that. What we gon do about it?
Tre:: I say we get that nigga.
~They followed VoShonne out to the parking lot and up to his car.~
Mike: Ay Silkk!
VoShonne: What? ~turning around~
~Tre hit him in the stomach and VoShonne doubled over to the ground.~
Deon: Get up!
VoShonne: ~getting up~ What the fuck was that for?
Tre: Nigga don't ever walk past me like I ain't shit. Do you know what I will fucking do to you?
VoShonne: Look Tre. I ain't got no beef with you. I'm just trying to get home. I don't roll like that no more.
Mike: So now it's like that? Just cuz you don't run with us no more.
VoShonne: I left all y'all and that gang shit behind when I got out.
Deon: You getting beat up don't mean shit. Long as you got that tat ~pointing to the old English E on VoShonne's arm~ you'll be a east side ryda for life.
Mike: And we'll be watching you.
VoShonne: Man look, I ain't got time to be hearing all this bullshit. I gotta get home to my girl.
Tre: Yeah, your girl. She fine as hell. Heard she bout to have another baby and I just know you wouldn't want any thing to happen to her.
VoShonne: Yo, you leave my girl and my daughter out of this. If you want me come and get me, but don't fuck with them.
Mike: Some one got some balls.
Tre: I see. Aight, Silkk we'll leave you alone, but we will be back. Be afraid nigga. Every time you turn around we'll be there. Watch yo shit close. Come on y'all. Lets bounce.
~Tre, Deon, and Mike walked away. VoShonne got in his car and went home. Teena was asleep by the time he got back. He carried her upstairs and put her in bed. The he went to Dyamond's room and saw she was asleep too. By the time VoShonne went back into his room Teena was awake.~
Teena: Baby what took you so long?
VoShonne: Oh, T I ain't mean to wake you up.
Teena: It's aight. Where ya been?
VoShonne: I ran into some people at the store. I ain't mean to take so long.
Teena: It's coo. I didn't need to eat any of that stuff anyway ~yawning~ I'm tired.
VoShonne: Go back to sleep.
Teena: I am. ~looking at VoShonne~ Shonne is there something wrong? Did something happen?
VoShonne: Naw, everything's coo.
Teena: Are you sure? You look like something's wrong. You know you can tell me anything.
VoShonne: You know I love you right?
Teena: Yeah.
VoShonne: And you know I love Dyamond and this baby too right?
Teena: Yeah I know. And we love you too.
VoShonne: Then that's all that matters. Now go to sleep so my baby boy can get his rest.
Teena: Aight boo. Goodnight.
VoShonne: Night. ~kissing her on the cheek~
~Teena went to sleep and when she woke up VoShonne was gone. There was a note on his side of the bed.~
Teena,

Luv,
VoShonne
Teena: What is this nigga up to?
~Teena went to check on Dyamond and saw she was playing in her room. She cooked breakfast and her and Dyamond chilled all day. Around 4:00 pm VoShonne came home. Teena and Dyamond were laying on the couch.~
Teena: Hey boo. ~hugging him~ Where you been all day?
VoShonne: We need to talk.
Teena: Aight. Lil Mama go upstairs and play in your room please.
Dyamond: Okay Mommy.
~Dyamond leaves the room and VoShonne sits next to Teena.~
Teena: Now what's up?
VoShonne: We're moving.
Teena: We're moving? We're moving?! What are you talking about?!
VoShonne: I want us to move to New Orleans.
Teena: New Orleans! That's over a thousand miles away. Why the hell you wanna move down there?
VoShonne: I can't tell you right now, but it's important.
Teena: But I don't wanna leave New York. What about the shop and the record company?
VoShonne: Forget them. We can start over in N.O.
Teena: Well what about Traci, Zane, Tayvion, Tayvia, Dawn, Cornell, and Jajuan? We can't just leave.
VoShonne: Zane and Nell will understand. We have to get out of N.Y. baby believe me.
Teena: When do you want to move?
VoShonne: Next week.
Teena: Next week! No, VoShonne I can't do it.
VoShonne: Please baby. It's for us. I have to leave New York before the past I gave up for you catches up with me
Teena: Baby what are you talking about?
VoShonne: T, just trust me.
Teena: ~sighs~ Okay VoShonne. We'll go.
VoShonne: Thank you. ~kissing her cheek~ Now all we have to do is tell Dyamond.
Dyamond: Tell me what Daddy? ~appearing in the doorway~
Teena: I just know you weren't eavesdropping?
Dyamond: Unt un. I was going to ask for some juice and I heard my name.
VoShonne: Well we have to talk to you so come here.
~Dyamond walks over and sits between her parents.~
Dyamond: Is this about the baby?
Teena: Naw, we have something more important to tell you.

Teena: No, but we can visit and they can visit us.
Dyamond: What about Uncle Zane, Aunt Traci, Tayvion, and Tayvia?
Teena: We'll have to visit them too.
Dyamond: Then I don't wanna move.
VoShonne: We're not giving you a choice. We, including you, are moving so just get use to it.
Dyamond: ~getting up~ I don't wanna get use to it. I don't wanna move! ~running upstairs and slamming her door~
Teena: She's not the only one.
