I Could Neva (JGE RETRO)

Chapter 42...Throw It Back

Tré's P.O.V

Tab just dropped us off at daddy house. Gotta see Nana before she go back to college. "Nana where daddy?" I asked her. "Idk Tré but what's up wit u?" She asked and hugged me. "Nun just chillin" I said. "Bro I wanna talk to u about sumn, come on" she said and walked out as I followed her. Wat she trynna talk about? " Tré I think dat girl a bad influence on u" she said once we got inna kitchen. " Man iont need nobody tellin me about wats best for me, u know daddy already don't like her for some reason. It ain't just because he caught us, nah it gotta be deeper than dat" I said to her. "Iont mean to try to boss u around, but hey I love u either way" she said. "Love u too Nana" I replied before walkin out. As I got inna living room the front door knob turned signaling somebody was comin in. "Nana, where u at?" My daddy said walkin in until he saw me. "Tré I told u not to come back, not only did u break that rule but u brought that girl back into my house?" He asked mad. "Daddy we need to talk" I told him. I had enough of dis. I need to know wat his problem is. " There is nothing to talk about but the fact that u disrespected me, cold game" he said and started to walk past me. "U might not wanna here it but u damn sholl gon listen" I said makin him stop in his tracks. "Idk wat den happened to u, but seems like u grew some balls" he said mad. "Nah daddy just hear me out, I wanna know why u don't like Ari so much" I said to him. At dat point Stink and Nana was standin by da doorway being nosy. " Come upstairs for a minute, bring that girl" he said. I'm scared den a mugg. " Come on Ari" I said to her and grabbed her hand. "Sissy where u going?" Audrey asked. "I'll be back just stay right there" she told her as we left. I looked around for my daddy until I saw him in his room. "Daddy u want us to come in?" I asked him. "Yea, come in" he said as I walked in, Ari followin. "Alright sit down " he said as he moved some pictures from his bed allowin us to sit. "A few years ago, after you were born. I had a one night stand with this woman at one of my concerts, she was so beautiful. She was so sexy.I was young and fell in love. Dont get me wrong, i loved your mom but this girl was different.The next day she was gone and didnt keep in touch. I called her but she never answered. A month later I had Three look for her. He came back and told me she was pregnant and her mother didn't approve of me. U know Mr hot in hurr, take off all yo clothes,so she had to leave." He told us. "What does that have to do with me?" Ari asked. "Yea" I said agreein wit her. "That woman was your mother" he said to Ari. Ari let go of my hand and looked at him like he was crazy. I'm confused too. "What dat mean?" I asked. "You're my dad?" Ari asked. "Listen listen" he started as he was about to talk again.

Ari's P.O.V

I can't believe what I'm hearing. Nelly's my dad? That means Tré's my brother. I can't have any more secrets. I've officially had enough.  "I finally got in touch with Sharon and she was in a hard place in her life. Drinkin everyday, I asked her about the baby and she said she didn't know. That right there pissed me off and ever since I just couldn't stand to look at her, the thought of her doing something to my child just made me mad. " he said to us. Every word he said just went through my mind so slow. Its like everything around me froze. All I heard was those words over and over again before everything disappeared. I was in a world of pure darkness. Nothing else.

"Ari, ari, u alright?" Tré asked as he broke me out of my daydream. "How did u know Sharon was my mom, ?" I asked Nelly. " U look just like her, here take a peek at these" he said and handed me old pictures of them. "She looked so happy here" I said smiling while tears were going down my face. " Yea and I was happy with her until she changed her lifestyle" Nelly said."Aye Ari its okay" Tré said and wiped my tear away hugging me. "Now, She's just a bad person, she has so much hate inside of her" I said not understanding. " Did u find out what she did with the baby?" I asked him. "No, but I heard she moved on. Married somebody named Frank. I didn't understand at first but I knew it was best for her. I dont know what happened to that baby but I'm in a good place right now, iaint sure if you're that baby but I need to move on" he said. " Umm do you think we could get a DNA test, I wanna know the truth" I said to him. " Sure, we could do dat" Nelly said. This is why we're having so much going on. This is the starting point of everything. Where tf did this come from. Im so lost. The love of my life could possibly be my brother.Its extremely unexpected. She never told me about this. After the talk, Tré and I walked to his room. "Tré, if I am his daughter. Would things be over for us?" I asked him. I wouldn't want something like this to mess up what we have. I know it would be weird to date your sister but hey give us a break we didn't know."Sheesh, iont kno Ari, dis hard for me too but all we gotta do is think positive" he said and laid down pulling me next to him. "Tré , I just wanna tell u, I don't blame u if u don't wanna be with me anymore after this" I said to him. "Bae, dont think like dat, we been through errthang u could think of, dis not nun new for us. But if things change I want u to know dat I still love u" he said. "I love u too" I told him. It was complete silence for a while before I broke it. "Tré, even though there is so much drama in our lives right now, u Still care, I love that about u" I said staring at the ceiling. "Ari, ima be real wit u, I love u but I don't know how this will turn out" he said to me. "What are u trying to say?" I asked him. Is he gonna break up with me? "I'm saying, idk how this whole situation will end, I can't promise that we'll still be together or when it will end, but I'm hoping for forever." He said and looked into my eyes. I know some may not see him as the down to earth sweetheart but he is. Maybe not on Twitter or Instagram or Snapchat, but he shows it to me. I'm grateful. We may be young and dumb but we know what's best for us. If you don't understand that, we don't need you in our lives. We laid there for a few minutes before we headed back downstairs. "Sissy I missed you, where did u go?" audrey asked. "I was upstairs audrey its ok" I told her. "So what happened bro?" Nana asked Tré. I hope he doesn't tell anyone. That's embarrassing. I could just imagine how everyone would feel to find out I'm related to them especially Nana, she already acts like she doesn't like me. "Umm I don't know, its nothin" he said as if he could read my mind. I'm so relieved he didn't say anything. I have to tell Audrey tho. She deserves to know what's going on, its her mom too. "Are u and daddy cool?" Nana asked Tré. "Yea dawgs, we good now"he said. I walked from by him and sat next to Audrey on the couch. "Sissy do we have to leave and sleep outside again?" Audrey asked me. Why would she say that in front of everyone? I'm so embarrassed. "What are u talking about silly goose, u have a crazy imagination" I said to her to cover up what she said. "Ari, we know about everything, Audrey told us what happened its alright" Nelly said. Everybody was staring at me. If she just kept her big mouth shut. " I didn't want anyone to know, its embarrassing to live on the streets" I said. "Ari, u got a choice, u ain't get put out, u ran and left by yoself" Tré said trying to comfort me. "I just wanted the best for my sister. I had to get her out of that house" I said to everybody. "Anyway Nana, I heard about u and Stink in the hospital, what happened to yall"?" He asked her and Stink. "Man. Daddy, Lil Shawn had this girl and she was crazy, first she shot Stink then she stabbed me" she said to him. "Lil Shawn, its always Lil Shawn, do that boy ever stay out of trouble" he said shaking his head. "I just saw him before I came in, he was leavin" he added. "Are u talking about that Sasha girl?" He asked surprised. "No daddy, it was just so much going on it was crazy" Nana said and everyone laughed. " Right, omg you shoulda seen it" Stink said to Nelly. "Daddy I'm hungry" Nana said to him. "You always hungry, how bout this, errbody get ready, ima take y'all out to eat" he said. Good, I'm starving. Nana and Stink ran upstairs while me and Tré sat. We were already ready. "Alright let's roll" Nelly said as we all walked out the door.

Tré's P.O.V

We goin to get sumn to eat. Good dawgs I'm hungry. Daddy said he takin us to Red Lobster. Reminds me,takin dat money from him is eatin me alive, I need to figure out a way to replace it before I just break out and tell him gettin myself caught. We all got inna truck, and picked seats. Iont know why daddy ain't let me drive. "Daddy , I don't wanna leave y'all" Nana said. "U gotta go, I already paid for the semester" he said paying attention to the road. " I know but ima miss y'all" she said. "Ima miss u too sis" I said to her. "Oh not u" she said and errbody laughed. "Sheesh " I said. She ain't gon miss me, dats messed up. Daddy pulled up to Red Lobster and we all got out. We 6 deep rn. Hope it ain't no fans in here. Every time somebody say dat it end up being crazy. Let's just hope for the best dis time. "U treatin?" Daddy asked me. I just laughed. "Nah, Stink is" I told him. "Tré shut up. U get on my nerves" she said. We walked in the buildin. Its crowded man. "Aye we can't eat here, we gon get attacked" I said to daddy. "Yea. Nana u gon have to go in and get the food, just put on these sunglasses"he to said to her as the rest of us walked out. "Daddy they gon get me," Nana said and put the glasses on. "Owe, these hurt, my eyelashes is pressing against the lens" she said taking em off. "U need to cut them Muggs" I told her. "I'm not cuttin em , I paid good money for these " she said and rubbed em. "aight just wrap something around yo head" I told her trynna think of other ways. I'm hungry. "Tré wat the hell am I gon wrap around my head?" She said smartly. "Idk man I'm hungry, just figure it out" I told her. She took her hood on her jacket and put it on. "You shoulda thought of that in the first place" Daddy said to her and she walked in. A few minutes later she came back out with a bag. We all walked to the truck and got in driving back home. I looked to my side and saw Ari sleep. She look peaceful but I wanna play a prank on her. I waited for a minute before I Jes yelled out screamin. She jumped up it was so funny man. "Tré don't do that" Nana said. She got scared too and Stink. I'm dead man. "Don't do that bitch" Audrey said and slapped my leg. "Aww did that lil girl just say det?" Nana asked surprised. "What the heck and Audrey don't ever say that again" Ari said as she woke up. Daddy just shook his head and kept driving. Once we got home he put the bag on the counter and errbody got they food. "Dang Tré slow down" Nana said as she saw how fast I was eatin. "I told u I was hungry" I said and kept eating. When I was done I threw the container away and sat onna couch. "Ahhhh, I'm sleepy" I said and yawned. "Me too " Stink said. "Aye Stink did u ever get yo license?" I asked her laughin. "Shut up, did u ever stop being annoyin?" She asked. "Actually Not, he's so annoying" Ari said to her. "I feel u girl" Stink said to her. Actin like they grown. "Wat dats pose to mean?" I asked her. "I'm just playing" she said and hugged me laughin. "Mhmm, better be" I said. "Ok goodnight y'all I'm goin to bed, got a plane to catch tomarr" Nana said to us. "Me too I'm sleepy" Stink said and went upstairs with her. Audrey was already sleep which was good cuz dat lil girl is I don't even know how to describe her. "Uhhh its been a long day" Ari said. "Right I think ima call it a night too, u comin?" I asked her. She nodded so we walked upstairs into my room. " u can take the bed, I'll sleep onna floor" I told her. I know my daddy still don't want us in the same bed even if we are good again. She got in the bed as I grabbed an extra cover and made a palet on the floor. "Goodnight, love u" I said up to her. "Goodnight, and love u too" she said.

10 minutes later:

"Tré " Ari called out. "Yes?" I said wondering why she called my name. "I can't sleep" she said. "Why, not?" I asked. "Just thinking about what happened earlier, what if we really are related, this could ruin everything. My life and our relationship is at risk" She said. "Hey don't worry bout dat, errthang gon be cool, I promise" I told her. After that Iain hear nun else from her. Ig she sleep. I might as well go to sleep too. After some long thinkin dat is, but Goodnight errbody!
