D'lani was currently sitting in Fantasia's room as they talked about Zee and Ricky.
"I love Zee, but I like Ricky. He treats me good." D'lani said
"You just like how he make you feel when Zee cant. And that's not right." Fantasia responded
"I guess. I'm 17 so all this dont even and won't even matter." D'lani shrugged her shoulders
"While you think you having fun. You're hurting someone in the process of your fun" Fantasia said and D'lani made a face
"That boy loves you and will always will. But your damaging him." Fantasia said
"Okay? We're kids. He dont even know what love is." D'lani said rolling her eyes
"You dont know what love is cause you never had it before, but there is actually someone who wants to show you what love is. You just fucking it up" Fantasia ranted
"You get with him then, y'all keep telling me I cant do this or that like I'm not still a child." D'lani said
" I dont want that fucking boy. I like coochie baby." Fantasia said
"And you came here asking for my advice. So imma give it to you raw and uncut. I ain't gon sugarcoat shit." Fantasia added

"You really fuck with that girl?" Dominic asked and Ricky huffed
"Yea I guess so." Ricky responded
"Ain't no guess so Ricardo. You gotta know if this shit is what the fuck it is." Dominic said and Ricky knew he was serious cause he barely said his real name
"Bruh we together , what the fuck? Shit so fucking annoying." Ricky huffed
"I'm just tryna look out for you. You young and this your first relationship." Dominic said
"I encountered bitches like this before, and especially this being your first relationship that shir gon hurt." Dominic said to his brother
"Well I'm okay. We good. I'm fine." Ricky said standing up he left the living room and walked to his room that was in his brothers house
Ricky sighed closing his door as he laid on his bed thinking about all the things in his life right now.
His phone rung making him snatch it up aggressively
"What bruh?" Ricky answered
"Bro? You on yo period asomn?" D'mir asked
"Mir, what you want bro?" Ricky sighed
"We was supposed to chill today. I miss my bestfriend, you've been chilling with Lani for the past weeks." D'mir said
"You must've forgot about me." D'mir added
"Ain't nobody forget about yo annoying ass, I'll come over tomorrow or next week. I gotta watch KoKo." Ricky said rubbing a hand down his face
"Ight, dont forget either. I love you bruh." D'mir said to his bestfriend
"I love you too" Ricky responded before hanging up the phone
"Where are my kids Dominic. I am not playing." Ricky heard his mother, Luane, voice making him sigh in annoyance, he already had enough stuff on his plate and she just kept adding stuff on.
"Ma, can you chill?" Ricky heard Dominic say to their mother
"I told you not to take my children. " Luane said as Ricky walked out his room him and his mother made eye contact
"Let's go Ricardo, go get Aiko." Luane said to her son
Ricky just stood there looking at her, he really didn't wanna go back home he didn't like it over there.
Him, Aiko and his mom lived in a small apartment because they were some what less fortunate than others since their father died, Ricky didn't like to use the word poor or homeless because he had a roof over his head which he was forever grateful for. He just didn't like to be home cause of all the different men his mom brung in him and Aikos face. It was embarrassing for his mom to be known that way and also embarrassing for Aiko to see this at a young age.
At 17, Dominic moved out, because unlike Ricky, Dominic went to sell drugs which gave him the money to own a big house and flashy cars and clothes. Ofcourse he did for his siblings too, he couldn't just forget about them.
He even asked his siblings to move in with him but their mother declined as soon as he only asked them two.
"Mommy we wanna stay with Dom." Aiko said to her mother
" You've turned my kids against me, Dominic, are you serious?" Luane squinted her eyes at her older son.
"I cant believe this." Luane gave them one last look before turning around and leaving out while slamming the door.
"She's crazy as shit." Dominic said shaking his head.
