"Damn! We must've been tired as shit! What time is it?" Shanell asks.
Mel looks at the clock and it reads a quarter after two. "Well there goes our morning. Bitch it's after two!" Both women slide out of bed and walk to the bathrooms to freshen up. Feeling minty fresh they carry on light conversation, recapping their night they had before. They start taking out dishes and begin prepping to cook a quick meal.
Gypsy starts to fry up the turkey bacon as Mel gets the eggs ready to scramble. Seeing that his mommy is having fun, Sixx tries to cut in. He brings his raw hide bone to her feet.
"Aww! You want mommy to make you breakfast too?" she asks.
"Bark, bark!" The let out a laugh as Sixx begins to bounce around. Mel goes to the pantry and pulls out the Beggin' Strips so that it looks like they cooked him some food as well. After enjoying their brunch, they head back to the room to get ready for the surprise event.

"It is now fifteen minutes til five and the show starts at seven. Finally dressed, they're ready to walk out the door. "Sixx get in your house." Shanell motions for him to get into the carrier. She zips the front halfway closed and they are off to the Convention Center. Thirty minutes late, they pull up at the door leading to where the models were. Mel puts her bags down and starts to set up shop so she can get the models make up ready. Shanell is escorted to her seat and served two Appletinis with cherries and bits of sour apple. Wondering who's fashion show this was, she lets Sixx out of his carrier and places him into her lap. Little did she know, there was a bigger surprise in store for her.
Moments later more people begin to show up and light banter begins to fill the room. Now minutes til showtime the announcer begins to start as the lights are dimmed:
"Ladies and gentlemen. Get ready to be dazzled by a fantasy
so great, you wouldn't want to leave.....!"
The music cues and to Gypsy's surprise she heard her own voice! While the first set of models begin to walk the runway, "Hit the Stage" was playing. Still in shock, she starts to scan the audience to see their reaction. To her surprise they LOVED it! As the show progressed, she heard more of her music played for the models to walk to. On a musical high, she begins to dance and mouth the words.
It was now time for the designer to be introduced and to her great surprise "So Good" was the song chosen for that moment. The audience clapped for joy and excellence. The show was epic! The clothes and her music were getting great reviews and became the talk of the night. Walking towards the back to get Mel, she already saw Mel was packing up the car.
"So how did you like the show?" Mel asks.
"Liked? I LOVED it!" Shanell exclaimed. "But how did they get a hold of my music to play for this event?"
"Well I might have slipped them a track or few" Mel motions her hands from side to side. They share a quick embrace as they get into the car and hit the town for dinner. With their bellies full, they decide to call it a night. The driver drops them off at Shanell's house. As they walk into the house, they place their things near the base of the stairs.
"Thanks again Mel."
"No problem girl! You deserved it, plus you needed to clear your mind" Mel gives her a big hug. "Well I got to go. I have to fly out tomorrow morning"
"Aww, okay! Have fun in L.A., I will be there soon!" Gypsy walks Mel to her car and watches as she drives off safely. Getting ready to turn around and head back into the house, she sees a mysterious car parked across the street. Trying to think nothing of it, she continues back into the house.

The next morning, Gypsy woke up feeling better than ever. She let out a big yawn and stretched her limbs as far as she could. She plopped back into the bed to lay for a few moments before deciding to feed her growling stomach. As she hits the last step, she notices that the front door is cracked open. She goes to close it, but looks confused. 'I could've sworn I closed it last night' ran through her mind. She goes to open the refrigerator and decides she just wants a cup of orange juice and an apple. However, that quickly turned into a cup of orange juice and a hand made fruit salad. Finally prepared, she takes it back to her room for some morning bed and breakfast. As Gypsy goes to open the door, an unexpected visitor was sitting on her bed.
"We meet again...!", the woman starts. It was Alyssa, the woman from the hotel room. She gets up from the bed and takes a few steps towards Shanell.
"How the hell you got in my house?! Who are you?!" Shanell yells as she backs up a few paces.
"Don't worry about that. Just know I'm here to get my revenge!" She tries to take a lunge at Gypsy, but misses. "You think I didn't know about the party, and that you still kept in contact with Pretty Boy?!?! I told your ass to stay away, and you just couldn't listen!" she lunges again but Gypsy dropped her food and put her into a choke hold.
Coincidentally, Mel pulls up in the driveway. She forgot her make up kits at the bottom of the stairway. Hearing the commotion as she got closer to the front door, she rushes in while dialing 911.
"Bitch, I haven't seen him in MONTHS!!!" she throws Alyssa to the wall and begins to stomp her. Alyssa gets stable and catches Shanell's foot to pull her down. Just then, Mel comes up and grabs Alyssa by her hair and slams her head to the floor. She then quickly puts her into a full nelson as Gypsy throwing blows. During this, Alyssa passes out and they tie her to a chair using rope and duck tape.
The sounds of police sirens begin to grow as they quickly pull up into the driveway. Pulling out their guns, they rush into the house. They begin to yell "Atlanta Police!" as they ran sack the house.
"We're up here! Hurry!" They yell to get the cops' attention. When they see the girl tied up, they put their guns away as Shanell begins to tell what happened.
"This heffa broke into my house and went postal on me! Thank god my friend Mel showed up-"
"Yea, I'm the one who called you guys." Mel interjects.
As they escort her out of the house, the chief policemen walks back into the foyer to have a brief word with the ladies.
"We've been looking for this woman for months now. Good work ladies." the officer starts.
"Thanks but I'm just happy she's in custody now." Shanell replies.
"Yea, we got a tip on her whereabouts. So we decided to stay in the area until she showed up"
"A tip?" Mel asks.
"Yea, some woman and guy called in and told us that they believed she would be in this area because she had a grudge against someone who lived near here." he began to share.
"Hmmm. Well thanks again officer." states Shanell.
"Not a problem ladies. Have a nice day." Mel and Shanell shake his hand as he leaves back out the door. Within minutes, all of the squad cars were gone.
The two decide to go upstairs and clean up the mess that was made from the incident.
"Man, I can't believe that stale ass chick actually got into your house!" Mel starts as she picks up the broken glass.
"I know! But what I can't believe is that someone called the cops prior. Like as if they KNEW she was going to break in here" Gypsy replies, as she picks up the fruit and tries to wipe up the orange juice. Once they get the room and upstairs hallway cleaned, they head to the office to do some work. Hoping to get their mind off of what just happened.
A few hours go by and the ladies are hard at work. Gypsy checks her emails and begins to reply to them in order of priority. She sees an email from Mercedes and goes to open it. She reads it and responds back in joy. Suddenly, her phone rings. She picks it up to see who it is, and to her surprise it was Pretty Boy........
