"Have you been talking to your counselor" My grandmother Irene, asked as I shook my head doing my sister Leilani's hair as she was dozing off

"And why is that" She asked as I shrugged

"I've been okay" I lied

"You my grand baby I know when you not okay, you been drinking?" She asked

"Yea grandma" I said not wanting to lie to her

"But only at the party though" I said

"Well then I really can't say nothing, you was at a party as long as you not doing it on a regular, you too pretty for that" She said

"Ian all that" I shrugged really feeling that way

In my opinion I wasn't really that cute

"Now Jazlyn Nicole Brady, if I hear you say that again we coming to have a problem, you are very beautiful and don't let these other bitches tell you different either, ya heard?" She asked as I nodded

"Lani" I mumbled tapping on Leilani as she woke up

"I'm done with your hair, I gotta go to work now" I said

"Can we go get ice cream later? We never spend time together anymore....do you still love me?" Leilani asked making me just want to break down

"Oh no baby don't ever question my love for you, I love you so much I just been dealing with things I'm sorry I made you feel like that, we can go get ice cream when I get home okay, I promise" I said pulling her into a hug as my grandma smiled

"Behave yourself okay? I love y'all" I said grabbing my things

"I love you more" They both said before I walked out the house as I started crying

Why I gotta go through so much so young

"FUCK" I hit my steering wheel as I cried

I got myself together before I pulled off heading to work

"Hey pretty girl" Kanijah said giving me a hug

"Hi" I said smiling

"Heyy" Bella said giving me a hug as well as Ke'Monni

"Y'all came to help out" I asked laughing

"Yea she forced us to come" Ke'Monni shook her head

"Oh girl hush your mouth and go do something" Kanijah said

"Hmm" Ke'Monni said walking off as I heard the door open seeing Kaiser and some girl

"She's so pretty" I said smiling

"I think that's the girl- nevermind" Bella caught herself as Kanijah just looked at her confused before shrugging

"Wassup Dukes" Kaiser said giving Kanijah a hug as the girl was just in her phone

Just rude ain't even gon speak to his mama
