Waking up a few hours later I get up to check on Anna and find her on her play mat playingwith a toy car, it turns sharply before flipping 12 times flying threw the air, and lands upsidedown before she makes an explosion sound.
"You ready to eat?"
She nods coming up to me I quickly make her breakfast looking into the car show seeingthere's a 40 dollar door charge, I bite my lip quickly working out how much money I have leftafter bills and food, it would be an expensive splurge but we haven't done anything shewanted for a while other then going to the park I take a breath "Anna, DSM is doing a showat the car show I was supposed to do would you like to go?"
She looks up bouncing in her seat "Can we please I wanna go please?" I nod smiling.
Lunchtime comes around I frown seeing a message from Rick saying for me and Anna tocome to the diner.
After getting ready and in the car we take off for the diner, pulling up I let her out with herbouncing by me, talking about how cool the show will be, walking in Rick laughs slapping
the counter "There's Papa's girl".
Anna smiles running around the counter where he lifts her to sit on the counter "Now I hearda secret, you like that DMS group" he says.
Anna giggles correcting him on the name nodding he smiles lifting a shirt with the logo on it"Think you can wear this to the show kid?"
She nods hugging the shirt "Thank you papa" she mumbles.
He nods "Now if that group wants you to join them, you best remember your papa and comevisit," he says looking overly serious.
Anna laughs hugging him he chuckles bringing her back to me and smiles slapping my backonce "Thanks Rick" he waves me off "My granddaughter needs to show her love at her first
show".
Time lapse
Getting in the show I'm shocked kids get in on a discount but see no other children, I shrugsitting her at a table in front of me, a waiter came by handing us water I nod as Anna's drinks bouncing happily as the show starts she sways dancing in her seat.
The lead female comes to the front posing at the end I watch her amazed as they climb off thestage Anna taps me "Momma down".
I nod letting her down holding her hand she heads to them spotting The Bellas I freeze, Annalets go slamming into the leader who stops and looks down at her, I snap out of it rushing
over as the woman squats listening to Anna rave about the performance the woman smiles"Where's your mom?"
Anna looks back to me pointing, getting both groups to look at me she rushes over and tugsmy hand "Momma come on".
I nod and stiffly walk over feeling The Bellas watching me intensely "Beca who is this kid?"Chloe hisses.
"The kid clearly said momma Chloe, it's a bit hard not to figure that out," Flo adds sarcastically.
"Why is your daughter wearing a DSM shirt?" Chloe demands ignoring Flo.
Before I can answer Anna smiles pulling out her shirt with one hand and pointing at it withthe other "Papa got me it, I love them" she says happily.
Chloe's eye twitches and her fake smile drops I notice the blonde whisper something to adark-haired woman who nods getting Anna's attention, pointing to a wall with merchandisethey look at me I nod quickly the woman nods picking up her rushing away.
"Beca your daughter should be a Bellas fan not a fan of the enemy, she doesn't know whatshe likes" Chloe says raising her voice slightly.
Seeing a few Bellas back away looking disturbed at her answer I shake my head "Chloe sheknows what she likes she's seven, I'm not going to force her into liking anything it's herchoice if she likes them".
"She needs to come to our performances then she will see, trust me Beca, she should havebeen at the last one," she says waving my answer off speaking to me like I'm stupid.
I scoff shaking my head "Yes because the last one was so great it's made worldwide news,Amy flashed her vagina to the president and the world in that show then literally showed her
ass in her apology speech Chloe".
She frowns looking like she's confused about why I'm upset "Beca it was a good show".
"Oh my god you're delusional, that show made us the laughing stock of the A Cappellaworld, worse than Aubrey throwing up on the judges, we are lower than the Tone hangers," Isay throwing my hands up.
"The feisty mouse is right, the child can like what group she likes and your last show wastruly not safe for a child to see," she says then smirks looking at Chloe "We are more thanhappy to have another fan".
As they start arguing I huff walking away to where Anna is looking at merchandise, the dark-haired woman looks at me giving a small smile before focusing on Anna looking at stuff"Thank you for getting her out of there before Chloe lost it".
She nods pressing her lips so tightly together that they seem to disappear "Not a problem, Ihave one myself with us, I'd want someone to get him away from a fight if I was caughtunable to leave".
Anna squeals with a hat on her head looking in my direction "Momma that's G'sela" she sayspointing to the woman I chuckle lifting her and putting the hat back.
Gisela nods grabbing a bag that looks stuffed and a paint marker shaking it "Let go see aboutthose autographs Ja" she says glancing at me, I nod following her to a V.I.P area as she talksto the guy at the rope who nods opening it nodding me in.
I nervously step in seeing three of them look at us "Come feisty mouse, bring tiny mouse" theblonde says waving us over.
Reaching them she holds a white paint marker looking at Anna twirling it around her fingers"Okay tiny mouse you need autographs".
Letting her go get her shirt signed by them members Gisela comes over to me handing thebag to me, that's covered with autographs with four larger ones near the logo "This is hers,
Kommissar insisted she get the ultimate fan bag".
I nod taking the bag "My son's around her age, we will be here a while could we meet and letthem play together?"
I bite my lip and nod "Yeah weekend works best for us for a play date" I say handing her myphone she nods putting her number in and sends a text to herself then hands it back.
I look up when Anna is brought to me "Momma K'missar's name see?" she says pointing ather shirt.
Taking her back I nod smiling "I see baby, did you say thank you?"
She jerks turning her upper body and screams thank you loudly I cringe rubbing my ear"Great baby" I shake my head mumbling "Now I just need my hearing back".
"It's time to go home but Gisela may meet up with us soon, you and her son can playtogether" I say to Anna after waving, I feel eyes on me making me shiver but ignore it.
As I walk out the large man at the rope walks by me "I will ensure you reach your car withoutproblems".
I nod seeing the Bellas as we step out "Play like you're sleeping baby" I whisper to herfeeling her relax against me, the man crosses his arms blocking them shaking his head "Sorry
ladies she is to be left alone please leave" getting to my car he glances back at me, I nodbuckling Anna in and take off so he can go back to work.
Reaching the house Anna bangs on the door looking at me, opening it she jumps out grabbingher bag, and runs for the front door "Momma" she whines trying to open the locked door.
I take my time with opening the door smirking at her impatient huffing and glaring at me,pushing it open she rushes in jumping on the couch and opens the bag I drop by her as she
pulls everything out.
I laugh as she pulls on shorts that are a little loose and windbreaker pants sagging downpurposely, she tosses me two shirts and an extra bag, grabbing a hat and putting it on
backward, I chuckle turning on my camera snapping photos of her, when she mimicsKommissar's pose at the end of the performance I quickly get a photo of it.
"Anna give me the shirt they signed" she pouts taking it off "Why momma?"
I smile folding it up "With autographed stuff you don't use them, you frame and hang themup".
Frowning I look at everything seeing what she did not get signed handing it to her with theshirts "These you can use but these two" I hold up the signed ones "are to be framed".
Getting up I put the stuff on my dresser "Go, change diva it's past bedtime".
She nods rushing off to the bathroom room I make my way threw the house making sureeverything is locked, stopping at the bathroom Anna stands on her steps in DSM shorts and
tank top brushing her teeth.
She quickly finishes and runs past me to her bed jumping in yanking the blanket over herhead knocking her teddy bear off.
Turning on her night light I tuck her in kissing her head "Good night baby girl sweet dreams".
She smiles "Night momma".
Getting up I hand her the stuffed bear turning the light off I stop at the door looking at her"Love you baby girl".
Hearing her mumble it back I leave going to my room.
