-Hey! -Hey!
[Shorty] Hey, girl, how are you?
[Shay] So, going through a process like this,
I'm just so tired.
I'm emotionally drained. I'm stressed out.
So, I'm definitely looking forward
to this much needed girl time.
Being able to really relax.
Let my hair down, and not have to worry about the men.
We need to go ahead and have this shot first.
Okay.
Shot to the process.
I don't know about that.
[all laughing]
To hoping it gets better, how about that?
-[all giggle] -Exactly.
Okay, thank you.
[Shay] So, can I ask you really quick?
With Otis, we all know the situation.
-Yeah. -We all know what happened.
Do you think it was more to...
the story?
Because, I'm only asking that because,
I know what I've been through with Fonzo, so...
-[Charlana] Yeah. -And I've seen where he's deleted
the messages from the person.
Otis showed me everything.
-Okay. -I read everything.
But, for him to put it out there that he did it.
And, why did he do that?
Otis is very petty.
So, him doing something like that...
kinda doesn't surprise me.
Did you ever get to the bottom of it?
We got to the bottom of it.
We are at the bottom of it.
[both giggle]
He got really upset and jealous
at my first date,
because I brought flowers home.
-Right. -He was so mean.
With the flowers. Told you to take a shower.
-Like, we all know what that meant. -All that.
-Yeah, we all... -And I kept telling him to stop.
I was like, "Stop, you're going too far."
And he kept going.
And so...
when he apologized and he was said he was sorry,
I don't think he was.
I think in his head, it's like "I am going to get you back."
[Shorty] So, this was the get back.
-So, this was retaliation. -[Charlana] Yes.
So, that's what happened. I'm not...
Listen, he the one that was crying and stuff.
You know, I felt bad for him, but it's like you know,
you gotta be a nicer person.
Like, you're playing games with people.
Do you feel like, with you knowing everything
that you know,
would you say Yes today?
I wouldn't say Yes today.
I don't think that a man, who's ready for marriage
should be entertaining other women,
while putting strict standards on his girlfriend.
It sees a bit hypocritical in my eyes, Otis.
So Shorty, same thing.
Based on everything that you said,
you know how you feel.
Even the dates that you've gone on multiple times...
Right.
Do you feel like you're ready to marry him today?
No.
-Really? -No.
I think the biggest hurdle
that me and Ken have to get over
in order to like, walk down that aisle,
is to understand that we're not enemies.
That's deep.
Yeah.
-Seriously, like... -I didn't think you would say that.
Me either, but I understand.
[Charlana] And what about you, Miss Shay?
It's not even just the family situation with Alfonzo.
I know we speak about that a lot,
but it's more so about him recognizing
who I am to him.
-Yeah. -[Charlana] Exactly.
And see me in first position.
-Yeah. -Yeah.
[Shay] And I think that until
he can actually determine
how he handles the women in his life,
we can't move forward.
-Yeah. -'Cause that leads to issues
in every area.
If it's not working for me,
let me invest my time elsewhere.
-Right. -I'm not gonna just keep sitting around...
and try to figure out, "Okay, what are we gonna do?
How are we gonna do this?"
I like how Shay is very clear
about what she wants and what she needs from Alfonzo.
And, I'm hoping Otis can see and understand that
I've been very clear about what I want,
what I need from him as well.
I've always believed, don't stay in something that...
isn't right for you.
-Do you know what I'm saying? That's hurting you. -Right.
We're all beautiful, smart, educated.
Don't ever let what someone does
make you feel less than...
[Shay] Charlie's a very strong woman.
But in this instance,
she really needs to stop playing the strong role,
and accept reality
and determine, what do you wanna do from this?
Because of course, if both parties are not honest
with how they feel,
how do you expect to really grow?
We are hoping for the best.
We want the most successful potential marriage.
So, we're gonna toast to that.
Yes, and we know we got
self-worth to put in to make it work.
