History Repeats itself

Shuntice Pov

After i received August text i got up and went to get something to wear and packed a few clothes and put my hair in a messy bun. My mom came back in the room.

Rachel - Shuntice, we have to talk

Shuntice- Ma' i have nothing to say to you just leave me alone please. I was still crying.

Rachel- i need to talk to you just sit down. I looked over at her and set next to her on the bed.

Shuntice - go ahead.

Rachel - I love you, you know that i just want whats best for you and i dont ask anything from you just that you're respectful and follow my rules. I dunno if you miss home and you acting out. I know you didn't want to come out here. I really don't want you falling into the wrong crowd. She put her hand on my knee. Shuntice this boy what can he do for you he is going to break your heart.

Shuntice - Ma' you don't know him to say anything about him.

Rachel - Shuntice he had a gun just sitting on the dresser like nothin. I don't want you hurt and he is going to hurt you baby nine times out of ten he sellin drugs.

Shuntice - Ma' this is my life and i will choose how to live it and and carryin a gun doesn't mean you sale drugs.

Rachel - i know he sells drugs what he is doing is only going to lead him two places, Dead or in prison don't be so nieve and dont play me like ion. You wana be a statistic, Do you wanna be single black mother raising a child by yourself. He is going to get you pregnant and he might leave you for someone he has on the side. She started crying.

Shuntice -don't compare my life to yours

Rachel - all i'm saying is the road your taking is the same road i taken yeah your father helps take care of you but he isnt there, why cause he is in Virginia state prison and it gets hard raising a child by yourself I don't want to experience that feeling. She got up and wipped her eyes.

Shuntice- well i'm not goin to get pregant to be in that situation. i finished getting my stuff together and walked out the my room and out the door to the car with August.

August Pov

I waited for Shuntice by the car i seen her with a small bag in her hand she looked like she was crying. I reached for her bag and placed it in the trunk of the car and she went and set on the passanger side. I got in and started up the car.

August- you ok

Shuntice- yes just get me away from here please. i drove off going to my big brothers house. i reached for her hand and i placed it in mines. I dont know what happend with her mother but i wasnt going to get into it with her about it. Especially when i have my own issues with as it is with my own mother i learned to never speak on a situation that you have not clue about. We drove in silence i pulled up to my Mel's house and i got out. there was Knowone sitting on the porch they must been all in the house. i parked the car and Shuntice and i got out.
