"Are you not gonna eat?"
I looked down at my bowl and shook my head. "You didn't like it, you wanna order something else?"
"Um.. its not that. I'm not really hungry. I'm actually getting over a cold."
I tossed the fruit around in the bowl. I thought if I ordered something light then I could finish it. But I just didn't have an appetite. I couldnt even remember the last time I ate breakfast.
"Eat alittle bit. You gotta put some meat on your bones.. you lost alot of weight since the last time i saw you."
"I actually gained 6 pounds." I stabbed my fork into the pineapple and offered it to her. Its always been her favorite.
"Well it all went to your fucken boobs." She ate the pineapple and joked about it some more. It was probably the first laugh we shared since we sat down.
She was doing most of the talking.. The awkward silence was new.
I really hated it so I tried to make conversation. I didn't want her to think I wasn't happy to see her..
"How's Hector? Is he mad that I didn't go?"
She shrugged.. "He'll get over it."
"And Roxy?"
"Oh shes still mad. I asked her to come but you know how she is."
Yeah, I'm well aware of how petty that girl is.
I set my fork down and pushed my bowl to the side.. I wasnt hungry. "You think she'll get over it?"
"Idk. If she's still mad it's because you busted her lip."
That was an accident.
"I didn't mean to elbow her like that.. but she shouldn't have grabbed me the way she did either."
"I'm not choosing sides. Im staying out of it."
"Oh really? Cus it sounds like you're on her side."
"We all know she whooped your ass Liz but you asked for it. I'm not getting involved."
I wouldn't even call it a fair fight. She attacked me from behind.. its cus she knew I wouldve whooped her ass had i seen it coming. 🤡
"She started it! She called me a rusty bitch. What does that even mean Crystal?! My face is still fucken bruised, look at it!" She acted like she didn't see any bruising but it was right above my cheekbone.
"Well you deserved it, you rusty bitch."
We both laughed.. I did deserve it, I know I did but I refuse to admit it to them.
"It was stupid. And now my mom's refusing to let me visit. Wtf am I supposed to do now?"
"She's more upset over that fight with Rox than she is about you calling her a bitch."
I knew where she was going with this.
"Call her. Apologize. Get over it. I want you guys to make up before the baby gets here. Do it for me Liz. Do it for your little niece."
I'm not apologizing to Roxy first.. if she does then maybe..
"Why are you even suggesting that. I thought you hated her?" Literally. Wtf
"Well, maybe she's not the rusty bitch I thought she was." Whatever 🙄 She's the rustiest bitch I know..
"She feels bad Izzy.. she hides it by acting angry. You know how she is. We just miss you. We don't see you anymore.."
