phone and call him, but quickly realized that she’d left it upstairs. After her outburst the last thing Skye wanted was to go back inside Toni’s office, but she needed her phone. Turning around, she waited for the elevator behind a group of people in the crowded lobby. She then suddenly became annoyed as she listened to a screaming baby in a stroller with a woman several feet in front of the crowd.
    “Damn, I wish she would feed that baby or something,” Skye said to herself.
    When the elevator doors finally opened, surprisingly Toni walked off.
    “I’m glad I caught you, Skye. I’m sorry if I upset you, but I was just doing my job,” Toni said, passing Skye her phone.
    “It is what it is,” Skye replied still pissed off.
    Toni gave her a nonchalant look before walking back toward the elevator. Skye turned around to leave herself, but paused when she heard a woman say, “Hey, Ms. Vaughn, I was just on my way up to see you for our two o’clock appointment.”
    When Skye thought she recognized the voice, she abruptly turned around. Her eyes widened while her heart rate began to enhance. It was Asia!
    Without a second thought, Skye walked up to Asia and stood in front of her like they were about to go toe to toe at a boxing match. “What the fuck are you doing here?” she fumed.
    Asia reached down, grabbed a pacifier and stuck it into the baby’s mouth to quiet the screaming down. Skye stared at the baby in the stroller long and hard then placed her angry eyes back on her former friend.
    Asia slung her hair from side to side, ignoring Skye’s question and evil stare. She wasn’t at all dressed appropriately for a business meeting wearing a pair of black sequined leggings and a short pink t-shirt that barely covered her plump ass. Her once flat stomach was now replaced with a huge baby pooch from her obvious pregnancy.
    Toni turned and gave Skye eye contact as if she wanted to say something but didn’t.
    Instead of responding, Asia just held a smirk on her face.
    “Bitch, are you just gonna stand there like nothing happened?” Skye roared.
    “Skye, I didn’t come here to fight. I came to find out how much money my son will be getting from his father,” Asia responded.
    “I know you didn’t say what the fuck I think you said.” Skye now knew that Asia was probably the one calling Toni pretending to be Sandino’s sister.
    “I don’t know why you’re tripping Skye, it’s not like Sandino doesn’t have more than enough money to go around.”
    At that moment, Skye went crazy. She leaped over and grabbed a wad of Asia’s hair, then slung her onto the floor, diving on top of her body. Seconds later, she started throwing several jabs, with each one landing on Asia’s face. The people standing near the elevator ran over and stood there staring at them like it was a scene from The Bad Girl’s Club . All Asia could do to defend herself was to hold her head down and scream for help as Skye went ballistic.
    “I trusted you bitch!” Skye screamed as she continued to throw several punches.
    “Skye, please stop! She has a small child!” Toni pleaded.
    People in the lobby stood around watching and pointing as Skye put an old fashion beat down on Asia. A few seconds later, two security officers finally came over and pulled the two women apart. One of the officers helped Asia up off the floor while the other security guard stood in front of Skye.
    “Miss, we aren’t tolerating this. We’ve already radioed in for the police,” one of the security officers said to Skye.
    Toni stopped him. “No, that won’t be necessary. She was just about to leave.”
    The security guard looked at Toni. “We can’t have this type of violence in this building, Ms. Vaughn,” he said.
    Asia went wild when she saw blood on her clothes and strands of long, natural hair on the floor. At no time did she even bother to go check on her screaming baby, who was now being attended to by one of the bystanders. The stroller had been
