School was over and I made my way home. After a long satisfying shower, I decided to go for a run. Wanting to feel the cool breeze hit my body I just wore a sports bra and a short tights because of my big thighs the tights is shorter but I really don't care.
After couple whistles form guys on the side of the road, thoughts about my principal, my mom, my grades and Chris, the run came to an end.
I open the door to my grandma's house thinking I haven't seen her in awhile.
"Grandma?" I shouted
"Are you home?" And still no answer
Knowing she might be ignoring me I searched the house looking for her until my eyes landed on her unconscious body in the kitchen
I quickly rushed to her taking my phone from the side of my arm and immediately calling the ambulance.
I was pulling my hair out waiting for the doctor thinking about why I haven't been visiting her as much as I should, I mean she's right fucking next door, what's wrong with me? I should have pages more attention to her and maybe I would have realised something was wrong with her.
I turn my head to see a worried Alexa running towards me. I quickly stand to hug her. I cried into her arms not being able to hold it in anymore. Finally I heard a doctor say her name
"Maxine Baker?"
"Yes, I'm her granddaughter Jasmine Baker. Is she okay?"
"She's okay. Her blood pressure was just low."
"Is she awake? Can I see her?"
"Yes she's awake and you can see her but I just wanted to verify you of some thing if that's okay?"
"Yes it's okay"
"I'll go check on her,okay?" Alex said
"Thank you. Tell her I'll be there soon." I said hugging her and she nodded
The doctor pulled me aside and told me my grandma needs a healthier diet. I've been telling here about eating properly but she just ignores me but this time I'm diffently going to try harder even if I have to shove food in her mouth myself.
"I'm fine girl, out of the three of us I'm the healthiest bitch in here" grandma said trying to lighten the mood but I never took the scowling look off my face
"I've been tell you to eat better but of course you don't listen to me. Don't you get that I can't lose you? And I'm not going to sit back let kill yourself" a tear rolls down my eyes and my grandma wipes it away
"I'm okay. Now you two go home and Alex stay with Jazzy. She tends to crawl in a shell and it's very hard to get her out. So don't let her be alone in her thoughts cause she find a way on blaming this on herself. Can you stay with her?" My grandma said acting like I'm not in the room and I simply just roll my eyes
"Of course Mrs.B" Alex said with a genuine smile
On the way to the house I made a mental note to check on grandma and give her a food menu and eating schedule and-
"Stop!" Alex shout dragging me from my thoughts
"Stop what?" I asked confused by the loud girl
"Stop thinking,it's not healthy"
"Thinking isn't healthy?" Raising my eyebrow
"No."
I shook my head at the poor crazy girl
I took a quick shower because if I took any longer I would be trapped in my thoughts and Alex would eat all my snacks.
"So Movie and snacks so we can pig out or spa so we can gossip?" She asked
"I prefer series but I'm feeling spa and gossip"
"Alright then." She said with a bright white tooth smile I struggled to return one
I brought the spa equipment form my room and set everything up on the table in front the couch
We sat and applied the clay mask on each others face laughing like idiots for some reason and then decided to eat ice cream while gossiping.
"So you like Chris?" I snapped my head to her with my eyebrow raised
"Come on I see how you two look at each other. I heard him and Javonte told some of the boys who were going to ask you out to stay away from you. I found it very childish and adorable at the same time" this time I nearly choke on my ice cream
"Lies." I said not believing her
"Dude I'm serious"
"Wait, whose Javonte?"
"Chris' bestfriend, he rarely comes school though" now it made sense I never see Chris associate with anyone he's usualmy by him self I didn't even notice it until now
"Is he cute?"
"Yes and he's mine bitch so don't try it" we look at each other for amount and burst into laughter
After we washed our face and finished out ice cream we fell asleep on the couch
