Tamia grinned at her sister through the glass partition that divided them.“As excited as you look, Fee, you’d better tell me it was President Obama.” “I wish!” Fiona snorted a laugh.“You’ve got a much better shot at meeting the president than I do, future daughter-in-law to our next governor.” Tamia smiled, wishing she shared her sister’s unwavering optimism.“Who was your mystery visitor?” Fiona beamed.“Sugar Bear.” Tamia’s smile vanished.“Your ex-boyfriend?” Fiona nodded quickly. “He heard through the grapevine that I was being released next month, so he decided to pay me a visit and let me know that he’d be there for me when I got out.” Tamia’s lips twisted with displeasure.“You don’t need to be getting mixed up with him again, Fee. There’s a reason you broke up with him three years ago. That nigga ain’t about nothing.” “But he has a steady job now,” Fiona explained,“and he’s paying child support to help take care of his kids.”
