"Alright ima be home at like 9:30 or earlier." I said on the phone with my mom right now.
I was walking back to the crib after the gym, just tryna get my mind off things.
Recently I been dodging everyone except for my mom, so just Jai and Jalen fr.
I didn't really understand why, I just don't want to talk right now. If my brother were here i'd of course talk to him but he's not and since his death i'd get into this mode where I just tune everyone out and eventually self destruct.
Jai usually left me alone when I got like this but Jalen.. he was different it's like he's trying to find a way to fit into my life, not in a weird way but like in an interested in my life way.
Not much to be interested in but you never know. Right now I don't know his intentions and this might seem harsh but because I don't know too much about him I've honestly just been blowing him off.
I made my way to the closest corner store grabbing me a basket to put me some snacks in.
I went through the isles grabbing me few snacks here and there and then grabbing me a drink from the cooler.
I walked to the front of the store standing in line, there was a girl about my age infront of me shuffling through her pockets.
"shit shit shit.. where's my card" she said kinda lowly under her breath as the man working cashier rolled his eyes at her looking down impatiently.
I adjusted my basket on my arm grabbing my wallet from my pocket taking the card out.
"Hey I gotchu, lemme pay" I said stepping beside her and handing my card to the cashier.
"I swore I had my card, you don't have to I promise its cool" she said looking kinda embarrassed.
I didn't mind paying for it, I understood the position she was in. Shit happens.
" Na it's cool." I said and she nodded. I payed for both of our items and walked out with her.
"Thank you, like forreal.." She said to me and I nodded.
"You're welcome. Have a goodnight" I said giving a small smile as she smiled back walking the opposite direction.
I put in my AirPods walking down the block just thinking honestly.
I missed my old life, now I felt lost without my brother. I only had my mom and Jai but the bond I had with my brother wasn't the same with them. Nobody could ever replace him in my heart.
I was finally home, I made my way to my apartment door unlocking it.
I heard my mama talking and I seen Jai sitting on the couch.
"Vea you good shordy?" he said as I turned to lock the door back.
"mhm.." I nodded trying to quickly slip into my room.
