Ch. 20 Bittersweet

Few weeks have passed and Shanell has been nonstop with the promotion of her mixtape expected to drop this summer. Between radio appearances and shows in different cities across the nation, it's been really busy for the Gypsy Queen.

Feeling so good after the last radio interview, she's began dancing her way to the car as if she's in her ''Its The Beat'' video.

Suddenly Shanell hears a soft voice whispering her name. She turns around and she sees a shadow, but no ones there.

Feeling a bit spooked, Shanell hops in the car and yells for her driver to drive off.

Just as the driver drives off a young lady appears. "We will meet soon my sweet Shanell, and thats a promise.." she says to herself.

Shanell motions for her driver to turn up the radio as she hears the sounds of ''So Good'' on the radio. She instantly does a conference call that consists of Mack Maine, Lil Wayne, Birdman and Slim. "Turn it to hot 97" Shanell says to her fellow bosses. They all get excited to hear ''So Good'' is playing.

"We are proud of you Shanell" says Birdman. Mack says, "Thats Luv!". Lil Wayne sings, 'Baby our song is on the radio'. Slim says, "Belee dat your on your way babygirl!!"

Shanell chuckles, "Thanks guys ill catch up with y'all later then hangs up the phone."

Shanell Dances and sings along to her song. In no time Shanell arrives to Atlanta. Finally, home at last gypsy yelps out. Driver gets Shanells bags and carries them inside the house. Thanks a bunch hun. Shanell tips her driver. No thank you for the kind tip, Shanell lets off a little smile, Then sees him out the door.

As she turns around to go back in the house she hears that same voice calling out her name once again, This time Shanell looks around and still doesnt see anything so she continues to walk into the house and locks the door behind her. Behind the bushes hid the same girl from earlier.

Gypsy's phone rings, Its just so happens to be her driver. Nelly, Says Shanells driver. i just realized something, Oh Yeah? Whats up? I dont know if you noticed or not but there was a white car that followed us with a female in it. What are you saying? said Shanell, well i noticed that car was parked on the side of your house so be careful. Good looking out pimp! No doubt says the driver before he hangs up.

Shanell heads to her kitchen to make some apple martini's as Mel arrives she notices some chick in the bushes, Mel yells out bitchhhhhh, What are you doing in the bushes?

The girl gets shocked and runs off, she trips over a branch and lets out a stale fart. Mel laughs, Damn bitchhhhh you funky.

Shanell hears all the comotion and heads towards her door. Girl come in what are you tripping off of? says Shanell. Some chick was hiding in your bushes. Shanell stops in her tracks, Some what? Yeah Nelly the bitch ran off farting and shit with her stale ass. They both laugh. Nigga where your bodyguards at? Mel asked. I gave those niggas a day off. I get tired of having them around, Its for your own safety Mel explains. I know girl but it gets annoying sometimes replied Shanell.

Well im gonna stay the night over here with you anyways, I got a surprise event i want you to go to. Im all for it says the gypsy. Lets get these apple martini's popping. Giiiirl you know thats the gypsy drink. The girls sit back relax and knock back a few martini's.

As the night wines down its getting late. Shanell decides to head off to bed. Make yourself at home Mel, You know where everything is.Your welcomed to use my guess room. Mel thanks Shanell. Goodnight sis.They both head towards their rooms and instantly fall fast asleep.

Shanell tosses and turns then she jumps up out of bed after hearing sounds coming from the kitchen. Shanell heads to her closet and grabs her brother's baseball bat.

Shanell walks slowly towards the kitchen. Shanell leaps out into the kitchen, As Mel turns the lights on. They both let out a loud scream running around the kitchen. Its me Nelly, Mel yells out. You scared me to death Shanell yells out to Mel. You were about to knock my damn head off with that baseball bat yells out Mel.

They both get a drink to calm their nerves down. Thats enough scares for the day Mel Says What time is it Gypsy askes Mel its 6AM.



“Man, today has been a crazy day! First I ghear my song on the radio then I gotta watch my back from some psycho chick!” Shanell starts.

“Im saying! And it’s a stale one at that!” Mel and Gypsy burst out in laughter.

Gypsy starts to think to herself about the incident from before when she was dating Pretty Boy.

"Mel, you don't think it could be that one crazy chick from a while back...do you?" Gypsy asks.

"Chile boo, ain't that crazy. Plus you and Pretty Boy not dating anymore" Mel took a sip of her drink as she replied.

"True.." Shanell let's out a sigh. She looks at the oven clock and the time is now 6:48am.

"Oh shit! I need to take my ass to bed if I'm going to make it to the event!" Shanell downs her drink and puts the cup in the sink.

"Yea, me too! This rockstar lifestyle ain't easy!" they lightly laugh as they clean up the small mess and leave the kitchen.

Light banter follows them as they walk up the steps to their rooms. Deciding to comfort her friend, Mel spends the night in Shanell's room along with Sixx. Little did they know, the woman had returned. This time she was in her car parked right outside the house.

"Yes, my dear, our meeting will happen sooner than you think..."
