No New Friends (Completed)

Girls Day Out

*3 Months Later*

"Zauri, can you do the dishes?" I asked looking at the clock. It was on 10:43am. "Simone, why don't you ever do them? You act like you don't have to clean up around here. You eat, go to sleep, wake up and leave. Act like Moma left us some home training.", I said pissed.

"Heaven, leave me the fuck alone. I told you I was about to do them.", Simone yelled back.

"Zauri don't do the dishes. Let smart ass do them. Let's go to the mall." I said walking towards me and Zauri's room.

"Heaven, I could've did them, you know?" Zauri said putting on her black and purple Jordan Retros.

"Me and you shouldn't have to take turns doing them. It's three of us in this house. Everybody should do something.", I responded.

Every since Mr. Oneil pronounced Zauri and I blood sisters, Simone's been acting weird. Me and Zauri shared rooms and did a lot of activities together. We walked passed the kitchen and Simone was doing the dishes.

"Why couldn't you just do them at first? Before you knew we going to the mall?", I asked.

"Puma, you changed every since Z got here. We don't chill or nothing. You always at work if you ain't with Z. Kevin try to hang with us but you blow him off now that he in a relationship with Amber. His Moma died and you weren't even there for him.", Simone explained.

"What do you mean I wasn't there for him? I stayed two whole nights with him while you were off with Zayden. He just didn't make me an appreciation status on Facebook. And no, I just try to spend as much time with Zauri because we missed out on each other's lives. Me and you grew up together. Kevin left because he wanted to, not because he had to. As for Amber, I told him, she's a gold digging hoe. He didn't believe me so he gone find out the hard way.", I said grabbing my keys. Simone grabbed her keys and moved her car so I could get out. I hated that Simone think I've changed. "MeMe you want to go with us?" I asked sighing.

"I thought you'd never ask.", Simone said locking up her car and the house.

The mall was packed with teenagers. You could tell it was a Saturday. "Something is bound to happen today. Zauri and Simone we all need to stay close. It's so many muthafuckers that wanna see us down." I said laughing.

We walked through the entrance to Foot Locker and walked straight into Esha, Teyana, Tasha and Jazmine "Excuse you bitch," Jazmine said.

"I ain't even with this shit today," I said and I simply walked off. I was thinking to myself, "Esha look hella pregnant." Zauri picked up some blue and white Jordans. They were the exact shoes I bought Jeremiah the day before he got killed.

"What's wrong Heaven?" Zauri asked. I didn't even notice I had zoned out.

"Those shoes. Um. They were the ones I bought Jeremiah the day before, um, yea.", I stuttered. Zauri put the shoes back and walked ahead of us.

"Z, you could've got them.", I assured her.

"No I just didn't feel right." Hours passed and we had stopped shopping but we were still walking around the mall. We decided to go sit in the food court.

"Look what the wind done blew in the mall.", Kevin said walking up with Amber. Simone laughed and Zauri just smiled.

"Y'all want something to drink? I'll get them.", I asked Simone And Zauri as I stood up.

"Sprite", MeMe said.

"And Orange Fanta", Z chimed in. I walked off. I heard footsteps behind me.

"Yo Heaven, what's your deal man? We been bestfriends way too long to just stop talking.", Kevin said angrily.

"Kevin, we do talk. We're talking now." I turned my attention to the cashier who was looking down at the pizza box someone ordered.

"How can I help you?", she answered with her head down. "Damn Meghan. You can't even look at me. Bad enough we haven't talked in three months.", I said waiting on an answer. "Just get me two orange fantas and a sprite." I paid for the soda and went back to the table.

"Y'all ready to go home?", I asked getting very agitated.

"Sure, but I invited Kevin over to watch the game with us.", Simone said grabbing her bags. If looks could kill, Simone would've been dead.

When we made it to the house, it was 6pm. Duke and Notre Dame was scheduled to play at 7pm. We put our bags in our rooms and went to the living room. Zauri went to the kitchen to start the cheese dip and I turned the tv to Espn. "Let's go Duke!", Kevin screamed walking through the door.

"Don't sit in my recliner.", Zauri called from the kitchen. Simone was laying on the couch which left me and Kevin to share the smaller couch. I walked to the kitchen to help Zauri make up the plates. "You know these past three months with y'all have been amazing?", Zauri said, grabbing her and Simone's plates. I grabbed my plate and our drinks and we walked to the living room.

"Where my plate?", Kevin asked looking between the three of us.

"On the table.", I responded coldly. Kevin got up and went to get his plate.

Everyone ate in silence as the announcers talked about both teams. The game was going fast and Notre Dame couldn't keep up. "Yes! Good job Winslow!", I screamed.

"Good rebound Okafor.", Kevin yelled. Me and Kevin high-fived each other before I even knew it.

I looked back at the tv and it was a commercial. The room fell silent making it even more awkward. When the game came back on, Duke was up by 15 points and it was 30 seconds on the clock. "GAMEOVER!", Zauri yelled.

"Aight y'all. I'll see y'all at church tomorrow?", Kevin asked throwing his plate away, heading for the door.

"So you not gone stay and drink with us?" Zauri asked.

"Naw. I'm pretty sure Heaven don't want that.", Kevin said. I didn't say anything. I just picked up my phone to check my messages. "Yea I think I am going to stay. Just to make Heaven skin crawl.", Kevin said sitting back down next to me.

"Zayden and Cameron on their way with the Amsterdam and Ciroc.", Zauri said. Cameron was Zayden's little brother and Zauri's boyfriend. My phone buzzed signaling that I received a message.

This Bxtch😏👊🔫: hey heaven. srry abt earlier. it's just i miss tlking to u everyday. & i was tryna act mad at u.

Me: Meghan, Ion Play Them Lil Girl Games. Gone About Your Business And Ima Do Me. ✌️✌️

Cameron and Zayden pulled up and Zauri and Simone ran to the door. They were so cute, always going on double dates and having four way phone calls. I didn't see what Simone had a problem with me for. She got a new sister when i did.

"Yo Heaven? Come here.", Kevin called from the back. I was still not talking to him but I had to see what he wanted. "I miss you okay. Is that what you wanna hear? I messed up by choosing Amber over you. I took her to the mall and she spent almost $1000. I just realized she all about my money. Go ahead and say it.", Kevin said looking down.

"No, I'm not gonna say I told you so but you should've listened. You get a little peice of ass and it's fuck Heaven?", I said getting sad. "Boodie, when your moma died. I was there for you. I stayed with you all weekend after the services. But when it was down to your appreciation statuses, I didn't get one. It was Amber, Amber, Amber. I wasn't looking for one so I could show the world that you needed me at a time. But I didn't get a thank you or any type of recognition." I said trying to keep my tears from falling.

"Heaven, don't cry. I'm sorry. I will make the longest status for you right now.", Kevin said pulling out his phone.

"Boodie, it isn't about showing Facebook that I was there for you. It's about you knowing I was there. How was I supposed to know you noticed I cared?" I said crying. Kevin wiped away my tears .

"Heaven I knew you cared and you still do. I just want you to know it's not easy to look into the eyes of the person you love and say 'Thank You'. Puma, I love you more than life itself." Before I knew it, Kevin kissed me and lead me to my room.
