I wake up to Rue and her mom fighting
"I want you to know that I'm not angry with you," Leslie says
"Angry?" Rue says
"Yes. I'm not angry with you. I love you."
"What are you talking about?"
"I know you're doin' drugs again."
"What? Did Gia say something about this? Really? You're gonna rat me out to fuckin' Mom." Rue storms into Gia's room. "Over some weed? Is that what the fuck we're doing now?"
"What are you talking about? I didn't rat you out!"
"I knew I never should've fuckin' trusted you!"
I get out of Rue's bed and walked to Gia's room.
"I didn't say anything!" Gia yells
"Then what is she talking about?" Rue questioned
"Wait, wait, wait! We're you doin' drugs with Gia?" Leslie questioned
"No!"
"Guys, what's going on?" I questioned
"Rue. I didn't say anything!"
"Then how the fuck does she know? What is she talking about?"
"Gia, you knew this?" Leslie questions, Leslie then turns and looks at me, "Brooklyn, did you know about this?"
I stood quiet
"You both knew she was doin' drugs?"
"Okay, you know what? If you wanna fuckin' consider smoking some weed to help with my fucking panic attacks doing drugs then, yeah, sure, whatever. I was doin' fuckin' drugs. Gimmie a fuckin' break." Rue leaves the room
Leslie walks over to Gia, "You knew?"
Rue slams her door
"Don't slam my door!" Leslie walks to Rue's room
"Mom please tell her I didn't say anything—" Gia and I follow behind her
"Can you guys chill the fuck out? It's just weed." Rue sits at the edge of her bed
"I'm not talkin' about weed. Rue. I'm talkin' about pills."
Leslie gives Rue a look
"What?" Rue says
"I'm talking about opiates."
Rue gazes at Leslie, she yawns
"I'm not doin' opiates, Mom."
"When did you start doing pills?" Gia questioned
"I didn't. I fuckin' didn't!"
"I told you I thought it wasn't a good idea—" Gia yells
