Going..Going...GONE

Shanice sat on the couch as she sipped on the brown liquor from her cup and already faded from the El she just got done smoking, it was one o'clock in the afternoon and she had just received a call that would change her life,  for the REST of her life and she didn't know how she would tell her sister this sudden heart breaking news.

"Hey shanii I'm home" Armani semi- yelled as she walked in the door. "Sit down, we gotta talk" Shanice said with a sad tone. "Mani love, mommy's gone. The hospital called me this morning and asked me to come identify her body a little while after you left out for school" she said as tears filled her eyes.

She had no idea why she felt this way because truth be told her mom was never there for her or her sister, she was always chasing behind some nigga with money in his pockets as if she didn't have her own. "It was probably on of them men she would always chase after" mani said as she got comfortable on the couch, she was hurt but not hurt enough to cry because as far as she was concerned Shanice was her MOTHER and the women that birthed her was just her MOM .

✨✨✨✨✨

" I mean I told her but she was real nonchalant and coldhearted about the whole damn thing" Shanice said as she talked on the phone with her best friend/ Cousin "DD"

"sometimes when a person disses the fact that they have two damn kids at home it ain't nothing left to say" a frustrated Armani said from the back seat.

" I didn't know you were listening to me mani, I thought you had your AirPods in" Shanice said as she looked back at Armani and then focused back on the road. "Nah I wasn't, it's fine tho. But are you gonna come get me from school or should I get a ride again?" Armani said as she grabbed her things because they were approaching her high school "I'll be here, just call me when you're ready to go" Shanice said as she pulled up to the school "okay I love you sissy" Armani said while shutting the car door "I love you more my love" Shanice said as she drove off.

Now it was time for Shanice to go home and pack them up and head to another state, with all this money her mom left behind she had the funds to do it she just didn't know where to go or even where to begin, all she knew was that it was time to go home and pack up everything she owned and get on with her new life, just her and Armani...

Aye! Aye! Shanice Cmere! "Boy what the hell do you want?" Shanice said as she walked towards the person that was screaming her name "I want youu! Why you been ducking a nigga?" The man said as soon as she got close " Mari nobody been ducking ya ass, I've just been tryna wrap my head round' a few things. That's all" Shanice said in her sweet voice.

Mari was the only nigga she had been doin' on and off for a few months, Shanice never bit off more then she can chew when it came to dealing with men she never wanted to be looked at like a whore even tho she never cared about what people thought of her, she didn't carry herself like that.

" Well how about you come over tonight? Come chill and watch a movie wit a nigga or sum?" Mari said walking Shanice back to her 2020 Black Mercedes "you know I will babe, just let me know what time" she said starting up her car, shortly after saying bye and driving off.

Armani walked down the hall while listening to music, she had just got dismissed from her last class and was so happy that it was the end of the week. "Hey baby girl, how was your day" her boyfriend Darnell said as he wrapped his arms around her waist from behind "hey babe, it was okay, how was yours love?" She said as she closed her locker and turned around and kissed him.
