Let Me Introduce Myself
The next morning Miceal gets up thinking about Nia and the fact that they have a child with the feeling of hurt he wondered why would she not tell him about they're child
Melana: Morning baby
Miceal: Morning love I will see you at work
Melana: Where are you going
With a heavy mind and heart he leaves with out hearing what his wife said ... Once Miceal pull up to the restaurant he looks around looking for a girl and when he thought he saw a girl that could be his daughter he realized she wasn't but then he heard the name Nevaeh and turned towards the woman who responded to that name he saw a tattooed light skinned hour glass shaped woman and gasped his mouth dropped and his heart beat was fast because the girl he saw looks just like him and Nia ...he watched her dance her way in the restaurant as he contemplated going into the restaurant
Miceal: (signs) Oh what the hell just go in already
But instead of going in alone he calls up a friend
Miceal: Hey what you doing
Kent: What are you my girlfriend
Miceal: Shut up man I need your help
Kent: Where

Kent: Are you talking about the place in the hood
Miceal: Come on girlfriend I will protect you
Kent: Ha ha you not funny give me 15 minutes
Miceal: Okay well I am going to let you finish your makeup
Kent: Go to hell.. Bye
Miceal chuckles and hangs up the phone then he walks in the restaurant and sit in booth like his mom told him and he is nervous looking around waiting for Kent to show up.
"Ring, Ring"
Miceal: Hello

Kent: Oh yeah that's right.. Well unlike you some of us hard working people have to double up to live like you inheritors
Miceal: Oh shut up and sit down you embarrassing me!!
Kent: Yes dear
Looking around waiting Kent looks at him and Miceal feels him looking at him
Miceal: What man
Kent: Now I know you see me like a son and all but this is beyond weird sir!!!
Miceal: I am so happy you think so highly of yourself but um no I just didn't want to be here by myself
But before Kent could answer Nevaeh popped up
Nevaeh: Hi my name is Nevaeh and I will be serving you today
Miceal mouth dropped when he looked at her because she looks like her mom and him and of course Kent is looking at her like lunch
Kent: Well I would like an omelet

Miceal stares at him while he looks at Nevaeh then Kent feels him staring and changes his expression
Kent: She is hot

Kent: I am just saying
But while they are talking Ms. Lisa sees those two looking at Nevaeh
Ms. Lisa: I think I am going to be sick
Nevaeh: Why
Ms. Lisa: Those two idiots wont stop staring at you

She says looking around
Ms. Lisa: Fool you suppose to look too but at that table over there

Nevaeh: Here you go now if you need anything I will right over there my name is Nevaeh again so call me when you need something and I will be back to check on you gentlemen. Ok?
Kent: Okay Nevaeh
And as she walk away Kent could not wait to ask more questions
Kent: So she don't look the famous 7 sisters she is better than looking like she a dime piece for real and she works and got a good work ethic so I give her a 10 in a book. But where did she come from
Miceal: Nia
Kent frowns and looks around
Kent: Who the hell is Nia
Miceal: The women who I loved and was in love with
Kent: I am so confused so you were in love with another woman
Miceal: Yeah Nia
All of sudden Kent gasped out of no where was about to cause a scene but Miceal looked at him so he calmed down
Kent: You dirty dog!! How dare you cheat on you wife like this and I will not except it no no mister lets go now!!!
Miceal: Boy shut up it was 24 years ago and she never told me she was pregnant
Kent: WOW
Miceal: Yeah I know
Nevaeh was walking up to check on them when one of her home girl walked up
Natalie: Hey Lily it's 90's night and you the host remember and I hope you remember your dance moves especially to those H Town songs you chose girl
Looking at her customers and looking at her friend she turned her around
Nevaeh: Um I am at work will call you later
Kent: Um excuse
Nevaeh: I am so sorry.. what can I get for you
Kent: A invitation to what ever y'all talking about
He says that looking at Nevaeh undressing her with his eyes and with a twinkle in her eye she kneeled down and got close to Kent and said
Nevaeh: I don't give out that information to my customers
With a wink and a smile she walked away
Kent: Damn she turned me down and on at the same time
Miceal kicked him
Kent: Sorry
Natalie: Here cutie I hope you show up and keep it on the low Lily don't like mixing business with pleasure so don't take it personal
She says sliding him a flyer to tonight's party and the club and of course he took it and hurried up and put it away before Nevaeh came back and her friend left
Nevaeh: Okay gentlemen separate bills or together
Kent: Sep-
Miceal: Together
Kent looked at him like he was crazy and Miceal smiled and nodded so she walked off and went to grab they're bill she came back with it and gave it to them Miceal slid it to Kent and stood up in front of Nevaeh
Miceal: Hey um you are a good server I like your energy
Nevaeh: Thanks
Just staring he laughs nervously
Miceal: Well um here this is for all your hard work
Nevaeh looked down at what he was handing her and It was a stack of hundred dollar bills wrapped in a rubber band
Nevaeh: Thank you but no you have a good day sir
Miceal: Wait well why not
Nevaeh: Because I like you wedding ring
Miceal: No I don't want anything from you I promise I just want to be a blessing to you no strings attached I promise
Nevaeh: Thank you goodbye sir
Miceal: Have a nice day Nevaeh
And then he walked out. Nevaeh stuck she looks puzzled while Kent looks at her
Kent:(Clears his throat) I just want to pay my bill
Nevaeh looks at him and takes his bill and walks away
Kent:(Yells) I want my change too
Nevaeh comes back with his change and then she told Ms. Lisa she was about to leave so Kent ran to the car to tell Miceal she is leaving but when he reaches the car he see Miceal on the phone
Kent: Hey she leaving
Miceal: I know now get in
Kent: For what
Miceal: Now
So Kent gets in the car and Miceal speeds off
Miceal: You got the flyer for tonight
Kent: Yup right here
Miceal: Good we hitting a club tonight but first I have an issue to resolve
Driving fast he suddenly pulls up to this town house and rushes out the car to the door with Kent trying to calm him down and stop him . Miceal was blindsided by the rage he was feeling on the inside as he bangs on the door
Kent: Miceal have you seriously lost it
Miceal bangs on the door again
Kent: I am not going to jail over you hell naw
Miceal bangs on the door again
Then a woman's voice echo's from the other side
Woman Voice: One second !!!
The door unlocks and she opens the door with the intent to cuss who ever hit her door like that but with a glance she gasp and looks at him startled and quickly Miceal went weak and his eyes grew soft
Miceal: Nia
Nia: Miceal
Then she slammed the door in his face
Kent: What the hell is going on. That's her mom
Miceal: Yes that's Nia
Kent: Why you smiling
Miceal: She haven't changed a bit
Then he bangs on the door again
Nia: Go away Mic
Miceal: We need to talk
Nia: Go to hell
Miceal: Nia let me in NOW!!! Why didn't you tell me
With a quiet moment she unlocks the door and opens it
Nia: Come in
And as soon as he and Kent hit the door she closes it and starts charging at Miceal and smacking him and jumps him until he fell then Kent rushes to pull her off it wasn't easy but he manages to get a hold of her
Kent: Ma'am please stop please calm down
Nia: Get off me boy how about you ask him why I am giving him a much needed ass whooping
Looking at Miceal Kent gestures for him to speak
Nia: Talk BITCH!!!
Miceal holds his head down
Nia: Oh you quiet now well here I will tell you this asshole lead me to believe he was single got me all in to him telling me he loved me and was in love with me only to have his wife confront me telling me she was with him and that I was just some side piece he was having fun with and that she has 7 children by him and at that time I had just found out I was pregnant and to add insult to injury his wife tried to pay me hush money to not take this to the public so instead I burned his club down
Kent jaw dropped
Miceal: I really do love you Ni I do I never wanted this to end like this
Confused Kent looks lost
Nia: Get out and never come back
Miceal: Why would you keep her from me
Nia: Because I didn't want her to be as fucked up as you are
Miceal: I am sorry
Nia: Yeah you are
Miceal: I want to be in her life
Nia: NO!!!!!
Miceal: Please Ni
Nia crosses her arms and turn her head
Miceal: I was going leave her divorce her because I have never felt for her what I feel for you. Yes she is the mother of my children I didn't want her never did our family thought we was a fit and kind of stuck us together but I was not happy all I wanted was you but once you said act as if we never met it broke me and I never knew she knew about you I am sorry you were not a side piece
A tear fell down her cheek
Nia: You know what is sad
Miceal: What's that
Nia: She is you and she looks like you its sickening
They laughed and Miceal walked towards her
Miceal: With your permission can I please be in our daughters life
Nia: (sighs) I will have to introduce she has my attitude to strangers
Miceal: I know we ran into each other at the Diner
Nia: Yeah well she gone think its weird if you show up to the party she hosting
Kent: Yeah the 90's party thing right
Nia: Yeah
Miceal: Um she loves the 90's
Nia: She snuck into my old music as a little girl and been hooked every since
Kent: Whose her favorite artist
Nia looks at Miceal and they start smiling at each other
Miceal: Lets go
So they got ready to go
When they arrived at the club they saw her running in the club
Kent: Damn she look good
And after saying that he felt eyes burning at they side of his face
Kent: Sorry
They get out the car and head in the club holding hands Nia and Miceal makes sure they don't lose each other
Nia: There she is
Miceal: In the middle of the dance floor
Nia: Welp she is your daughter after all
While Nevaeh is on the dance floor dancing to Poison by Bell Biv Devoe Kent is token away by her energy he likes how she lights up a room not noticing a thing she is just doing what she does best her job.
Nia: She is a lot like you
Miceal: I see that. I see what my mom see in her
Nia: Huh
Miceal: Yup she found her and insisted I meet her
Nia: Wow
While they go to bar and talk some more H-Town Bounce comes on and since Kent knew it he moved through the crowd to get to Nevaeh and finally he got to her and they danced surprisingly he knew the routine.
They shared a chemistry that was different kind of pure and Miceal knew saw it and knew what Kent was up too
Miceal: Look who is in the middle with our daughter
Nia: He looks a little thirsty but um I hope he can handle the bit Nevaeh can give
Miceal chuckled
Nia: You never told me where did her name come from
Miceal: Well I always said if I had a girl with the woman I love I would name her after my grandmother who was my pride and joy while my mom worked she raised me to be who I am today so
Nia looks at him and looks down
Nia: Well I hope she holds her standard
Miceal: I never wanted it to end the way it did
Then Nia puts a finger over his mouth
Nia: Lets just let the past be the past
Miceal smiled. Then "Take it slow by Trellini"
Miceal: Would you dance with me
With his hand out
Nia: Okay
And as for Kent he got his chance too
Nevaeh: So how long was it before my home girl slipped you a card
He laughed
Kent: As soon as you walked away
Nevaeh: She so irritating
Kent: I am glad she did though. You are pretty good here almost as if you are in your element you know?
Neveah: I guess. Thank you though
Kent: So why the 90's
She smiled real hard
Nevaeh: I just wanted a reason to play my favorite artist
Kent: Which is?
Nevaeh: Keven Dino Conner. I love his voice and everything about him
Kent: Girl you just like him cause he good looking
Nevaeh: How anal
Kent smiled
Kent: Sorry
Nevaeh: I am one who appreciate good music
Kent: I see. I really like this song
He says as he pulls her closer to his chest. With a warm embrace she tightens her grip on his neck for a minute she closes her eyes then when she opens them she see her mom dancing with the guy from the diner
Nevaeh: Oh my God
She pushes Kent and rushes to her mom Kent seeing where she is going he quickly grabs her and tells her to wait a second while he go talk to his friend and that's when Nia realized Nevaeh was looking at her confused and starts walking towards her
Nia: Vaeh hey baby
Nevaeh: What the hell is going on. You know he married right
Nia: Yeah come on lets go some where it's a little quieter please
She says pulling her though the crowd and signaling Kent and Miceal to follow
Nevaeh: Mom
Nia: Um Vaeh
While she explains everything to her Nevaeh looks puzzled and amazed and utterly shock Nevaeh has no words to say but she just stares at Miceal and nothing but quietness hits the room
Miceal: (clears his throat) Let me introduce myself.
