Secrets

Eleven

It's been a year and it's been one of a ride Chris quit being the principal...and I haven't seen him since he yelled at me in the parking lot of the school. I have a daughter her name is royalty and I still haven't had the guts to tell Chris he has a duaghter she looks exactly like him...it's crazy.

Chris is a singer everything he wanted to be so I guess it wasn't so bad for him to get exposed

Oh and turns out Tory was the one who exposed everybody and he got a lot of ass whoopins.

But I'm a senior now and I'm almost eighteen life has been okay I've been focusing on me and my daughter...me and my girls are still right and...coi girlfriend died from cancer she was depressed but she's been hanging in there now and Ariana has been great with her son yosohn and trey...trey is also a singer.

I dont know but Chris and his boys turned their life's into celebrities...and they are poppin.

I bumped into somebody I looked up it was Chris we paused he had oatmeal in his hands

Chris-Uh hey. He smiled

Essence-Hey. I softly spoke

???-Bae did you get the oatmeal? She asked he looked

Chris-Yeah I got it. He chuckled walking off my heart was pounding like crazy I felt so angry and sad at the same time I gripped my cart so tightly I wanted to hurt somebody I shook off the feeling and I went to line I put my things on the thing

???-Hello how are you doing today? He asked I looked I've never seen him around he looked fine asf man

Essence-I'm hanging in here. I smile slightly he smiled

???-Having a rough day huh? He spoke scanning my food as I was placing the food on the thing still

Essence-I mean it was going great into I hit the grocery store I guess it's true you always see somebody you know here. I said he chuckled

???-I feel you, well don't let that small problem get what's best of you everything is going to be alright. He spoke I shrugged

Essence-I appreciate it. I smiled he smiled

Essence-So what is a guy like you working here? I asked

???-Guy like Me? He asked

Essence-I mean it's no secret your fine asf and I've never seen you around. I said to him he chuckled I giggled

Chris-Want me to help you with your bags? He asked me

Essence-I'm fine, I'm sure your girlfriend would love for you to help find some more oatmeal. I said to him grabbing my bags the guy chuckled Chris rolled his eyes at the guy

Chris-Well ima help you cause we need to talk. He said to me

Essence-Since when do you want to talk to me last time it was fuck me chris. I said to him

Chris-I was pissed at you. He said to me

Essence-Over some shit that wasn't even true you didn't even believe me. I said to him

Essence-It's been a year now you want to talk to me. I said to him

Chris-The only reason why I'm talking to you is because I recently just found out that you have a one year old duaghter that looks just like me. He said to me my heart just broke

???-Yo man I think your being a little bit rude. He said

Chris-Why won't you stand there and mind your business this has nothing to do with you. He said to the guy

???-Well your in my line being hella disrespectful to her so it is my business and if you don't want anybody in it why won't you go take it private somewhere else. He said to Chris

Chris-it's none of your business why won't you be a good grandson and help your grandad make some money instead of trying to help her out so you can get her number which ain't happening at all. He snapped he grabbed my hand and some bags walking me out the store

Essence-Really Chris your really being absurd right now. I said to him as we walked to my car I popped the trunk putting the groceries in it he did the same

Chris-Look I'm sorry. He softly spoke

Chris-I'm sorry about everybody maybe I over reacted at the school I shouldn't had talk to you like thag I should of been there for you and you got shot I should of been there for you but I was pissed...I may wasnt there for you but I did take care of those niggas who's shot you. He said to me I smiled

Essence-You did. I softly spoke

Chris-Yeah I did me and august and trey and Michael. He softly spoke

Essence-Well um my number is still the same your welcome to call me and try to come see royalty or something. I said to him closing my trunk

Chris-Okay that'll be great. He said to me
