"bruh do you not understand why I am pissed" I asked Dee on facetime with her
"okay first of all lower your tone, second of all you need to go speak to your momma and see why she told you that your dad was dead when he wasn't at the end of the day thats your mom and you still need to be respectful to her" she told me putting her bonnet on
"ight mane but I still don't understand why she would tell me that my father was dead when that mane is alive and well" I told her once again
"and you won't understand till you ask her, now go ask and stop ignoring her" she said her eyes getting heave
"alright ma go to sleep talk to you tomorrow" I said
"alright goodnight, you still picking me up tomorrow" she asked
"yea go to sleep" I said and she kissed the phone and I kissed it too before laughing
Walking downstairs, I saw my mom in the living room with her head in her hands. Walking up to the living room I got me a can of ginger ale and sat down next to her on the couch. She was sobbing softly not even noticing that I was there
"ma" I said hugging her shoulders
"i'm so sorry that I lied to you, I shouldn't have done that truthfully" she said sobbing even harder
"can you tell me why you lied" I asked her handing her a tissue
"well when I was pregnant your dad was super helpful till my 8th month with you and he started drinking and sniffing cocaine. He came home one night and told me to leave the house knowing that my mom abandoned me because I chose to marry him, it was raining hard and he pushed me out the door. When I tried to get back in he kicked me in the stomach and told me that he wanted to kill you. I blacked out and thats when I met your little sister father he took me to the hospital and took care of me and you. But he sadly passed away and today your dad came and started saying sweet words and I fell into the trap. i'm sorry I should've told you the truth" she said
"well that nigga sounds about dead to me anyways" I said feeling abandoned by my father
"thats why granny don't talk to me and calls me a bastard child" I asked my mother
"yea it is and thats why I cut her off cause you mean the world to me and even though shes my mother, I wont allow her to be disrespectful to you" she said and I hugged her letting a tear drop
"I got us mommy I mean that imma show you how a real men supposed to be" I said rubbing her back feeling her tears on my shoulders
"I know you will baby, now go to bed you have school in the morning" she said and kissed me on the cheek

"hey baby" I said to Juan getting in the car
"wassup" he said giving me a quick peck before closing my door
"actually can I drive" I asked him and he just handed me the keys before opening the drivers door for me and closing it
Driving to my nightmare, Juan noticed that this wasn't the way to school and questioned me but I told him to just be quiet. Pulling up to the abandoned and burnt down house I got out the car and watched Juan do the same thing before pulling out a blanket and laying it on the grass.
"this was my biological parents house" I said and his eyes showed remorse before going back to examining the house
"when I turned three its when things started to change and they would become abusive. My parents would bring guys in and out of the house that would touch me and they would sit and watch it happen. When I would scream they would put a hot metal on my arm that will burn my skin and tell the guy to continue..." I started sobbing and pulled up my arm sleeves to show him the marks
"babe i'm so sorry" he said pulling me closer to him
"at night I would be awake listening to them argue about this other child and how they should've kept him and threw me away to an abortion center. One day my dad came in super drunk and high he started kicking me and shoving me and he grabbed a knife throwing it straight at me and I didn't move cause I wanted to die but the knife hit the picture that was behind me but I lived in torture for years and many times I would stay up at night asking Allah why was I put in this life" I said finishing my story and crying
He pulled me onto his lap and turned me around to face him. Grabbing my face he kissed me deeply and rubbed my back.
"i'm so sorry that you had to go through all that but that doesn't break you down babe that only builds you up, Allah put you through that for a reason and even if you don't see it now trust me you have bloomed into a beautiful, smart and loving women. Dont let your story break you, let it build you" he said and I smiled before laying my head on his chest
