12:02 pm" um what are you doing here ? " Naomi spoke as she walked into the house. she had just got back from volleyball practice.
" well hello to you too. " Jalen replied sarcastically, closing the fridge.
Naomi failed to remember that Dior had basketball practice as well.
" why are you here ? " Naomi asked again as she sat her keys on the counter.
" your brother invited me over. you don't want me here or sum ? " he asked, sounding offended.
Jalen and Dior hung out often after practice. Naomi was still new here tho, that was something she would have to get used to.
" your girlfriend okay with you being here? " she laughed, watching Jalen open his gatorade.
Jalen was taken back by her comment. he hadn't brought that up to her because he didn't want her worrying about Ryan.
" how do you know about that ? " he asked. he didn't tell her about the situation so he was confused on how she heard about it.
" shit gets around quick here. " she shrugged.
that and, Ryan has a big mouth.
" i just got here and someone already hates me. for no reason at that. " truly, Ryan was overreacting. Jalen or Naomi didn't mean any harm.
" i'm sorry, she gets jealous fast and likes to jump to conclusions. " Naomi just moved here. it was also Jalen's job to make his friends sister feel welcomed.
he knew how it felt to move.
" it's fine, im going to my room. i'm sure Dior is waiting for you. " Naomi spoke pointing to the slightly cracked basement door." yeah .. "
