I woke up again to hear commotion from the living room which made me furrow my eyebrows. What could possibly be happening?
I scrunched up my face before standing up and opened the door to be met with a fight going on in the living room. I could see Jahseh's back but not really who was laying out on the ground.
"Come on man!" Stokeley yelled trying pull Jahseh off of the person.
When he moved I realized it was my older cousin. My parents basically treat him like their son. He always came over but haven't seen him much since he went to college.
"Gabriel?" I kinda questioned before going over to him and helping him up.
Why would Jahseh beat him up like this? He was literally bleeding.
"Jahseh what the fuck?!" I yelled at him making him raise an eyebrow at me.
"You don't even know what happened Joey" he rolled his eyes at me.
"I don't care what happened! Why would you do that?!" I spoke walking up to him and slapping his naked chest.
Stokeley watched closely while Lily was scared.
Jahseh took a deep breath before looking down at me "chill out and I'll explain why he's fucked up."
I shook my head and folded my arms "that's my fucking family! You don't do that!" I stopped as I started to hit him again but he grabbed my hand.
He held my hand tightly in his as he stared down at me looking mad as fuck. He let go of my hand and grabbed my arm before leading me to the room and closing the door.
He pushed me on to the bed as he stood at the door still, taking breaths with his eyes closed.
"Yo bitch ass cousin that you love so much came here to get you. I was going to let you go but-" he stopped and chuckled.
"I ain't fucking with him and yo parents ill intentions but you know you love them and all so go ahead but once they do some bull shit and I gotta come get you just know I told you so" he spoke while putting on his shoes and his jacket.
He grabbed his keys before turning to me "I love you" he told me before leaving the room.
Which left me confused on the bed.
I heard the front door slam before Stokeley opened the door.
"He was only trying to help, sometimes he gets out of hand but he wasn't wrong this time" he told me.
"Anyway that dude said he's ready to go" he told me before leaving out and leaving the door open.
I walked back into the living to be met with the very beat up Gabriel.
"The fuck did you meet this thug at anyway?" He asked as we walked out.
"He's not a thug" I furrowed my eyebrows looking up and he chuckled.
"Sure he isn't" he shook his head.
"Um why'd you come to get me?" I asked and he shrugged.
"Time for you to come home."
