give her a big hug like Selah had done, but Okrah checked me real quick before I could get too close.
    â€œYes, it’s nice to meet you too,” she said and gave me a fake little smile with her thin little lips.
    I didn’t know how to be with that. I wouldn’ta ate none of that mess she cooked, but I had watched her talk show plenty of times and everybody knew Mama O didn’t have no shame in her game. As soon as the cameras got to rolling she was gonna be all up in my grill like we was best friends, asking me what color drawers I had on and when was the last time I changed them. The least she could do was show a sistah some love!
    Her production crew got to work right away and they were real bossy with their shit. The show was airing live so they wanted everything to look perfect. They slapped a bunch of makeup on me and tried to mess with my hair and put it up in some old granny style, but I put the brakes on all that with a quickness. I didn’t need nobody to tell me how to make my shit pop. I had danced on stage for thousands of ballers, and I knew what looked good on me and what didn’t.
    â€œWhere’s Viceroy?” I side-mouthed to Barron as they were telling us which chairs they wanted us to sit in.
    â€œIn the house,” he said with his mouth all stiff. “Sleeping his drunk off.”
    Okrah took her seat on the couch next to Selah, and the next thing I knew it was lights, camera, and action time!
    â€œHello America, although The Okrah Sinfree Show usually broadcasts before a studio audience in Houston, I promised that from time to time I would bring you special live, on-location reports on topics that deeply affect me and the world at large. Today, I’m broadcasting live outside of Dallas, Texas, with a family who has experienced and endured what to many is their worst nightmare. At first glance the Dominion family appears to be living the American dream. They’re one of the wealthiest and most successful families in the country, and they’re pioneers in the crude oil industry. They live on this beautiful estate you see behind us, and they have all the trappings that their success has afforded them. However, like most Americans, the Dominions have also had their share of family secrets, heartache, and pain. As parents, they know what it’s like to suffer, because eighteen years ago their three-year-old daughter, Sable, was abducted by a stranger, in part due to what some might say was the Dominions’ own carelessness.
    â€œToday, I’m happy to tell you that the Dominions have walked through that fire and come out on the other side scarred, but stronger. Due to something as simple as a milk carton and the efforts of those who labor tirelessly on behalf of America’s missing and exploited children, the Dominions were able to find their missing daughter Sable, who is now known as Mink, and have been reunited with the child they never lost hope that they would see again.
    â€œI’m pleased to bring you Selah Dominion, and her children Barron and Mink. Let’s start with Barron, the eldest son of oil tycoons Viceroy and Selah Dominion.”
    Barron sat there trying to look polished and confident in his three-piece suit as the cameraman zoomed in on him. He was a little nervous because of course this was Okrah he was talking to, but some of it was because he was unsure about the type of questions she would ask as well. Barron knew Okrah was a master at interviews and getting the most out of her guests. Some called her a blond-haired box of tissues because she was known to jerk tears out of the strongest men, but she damn sure wouldn’t be getting any out of him today.
    â€œBarron thank you for being here on the live set with us on this beautiful afternoon,” Okrah said warmly. “I understand your father is under the weather and can’t join us, but I can only imagine that since coming out of his coma his health has been
