" ESSENCE" I groaned at my mom calling me to get ready for this damn family reunion that I don't wanna go too
" WHAT" I yelled back waiting for a response only to hear her footsteps growing closer over to my room
" girl who the fuck is you whating at?" She raised her eyebrow at me and I just rolled my eyes
" girl get up so we can go" She started walking around my room looking at everything and touching stuff
I got up really fast and started pushing her out my room earning a loud laugh from her, she does this shit all the time too get me up
I made my way over to my dresser deciding what to pick out, I picked out this grey set with a white crop
" this will do I guess" I picked out this victoria secret set I got for my birthday and set that on top of the clothes
I went into my bathroom and turned on the shower setting it at a pretty hot but cold temperature.
_____________
" maaaaaa " I groaned going into her room, " girl what" She said with attitude causing me to scrunch my face up
" I really don't wanna go if Leon gon be there" My mom rolled her eyes and turned to face me, " girl if youn get over that shit it was 2 years ago"
Flash back
" ain't no way" Ain't no way I'm walking in on my cousin and best friend fucking, They both got up quickly and stared at me
Leon started grinning really hard and got up putting on his clothes, " fuck is y'all issue" I started getting angry at how he doesn't care
" girl get over it, it already happened " My so called best friend said, I put my fist into a ball and started going off on her
Leon started punching me in my face knocking me off her as she ran out the room. I got up and started going off on Leon
" YOU A WEIRD ASS NIGGA " I kept saying as I kept hitting, Our other cousin came in and started taking me out the room
I pushed her off me and grabbed all my shit walking out the door as I heard my name being called
That nigga dead to me.
flashback over
Ever since then I haven't been at any family gatherings that he was at, but this gonna be my first time in 2 years almost 3
" girl cmon shit" My mom said catching my attention, I made sure I had my purse with my phone, charger and lipgloss in it
and it did.
I waited in the car for my mom which is confusing me cus how you rush me but still inside?
She making a bitch very impatient right now.
She finally came out and walked towards the car, once she got in I mugged her really hard
" what?" She asked all innocently, " gurlll you took forever but wanna rush me" She laughed and started driving off
About 20 minutes we was here and I could feel my blood boiling right now. My mom gripped my shoulder and I calmed down a little
When we walked in we were being greeted by everyone and they momma.
I took a look around and saw Leon staring at me with a grin, I just wanna kill that hoe ass nigga. And, You know who next to him?
That fake ass bitch of a friend.
My mom pushed me away and went away to talk to my aunts making me sigh really hard, I sat on the nearest couch and went in my phone
I already wanna leave and go to sleep. As I'm in the middle of texting Paris the couch did a huge dip
Next to me was Leon yep time to go. Before, I could get up he pulled me down and I smacked the shit out of his wrist
" don't touch me nigga" I spat at him, " Essence stop acting like that it was 2 years ago I'm sorry cuzzoooooo" I looked at him in disgust
I sat back down but made sure to move away from him. " mmcht at least meet my friends they came along plus we finna go smoke later on"
I could feel him grinning at me and I tried my best not to smile but couldn't
He knows I love smoking..
I sat outside with Leon and his friends which was making me very shy cus Ian a social person
" shittt this essence my cuzzo " I mugged him at the cuzzo word and started lighting the blunt
" My name zay" This one darkskin said making me nod
" CAMRINNNNN aka cblu " Uhm ian need to know allat
" Dougie " He was watching his phone but I just gave him a simple ok
" damn nigga stop being rude and say sum" Leon said, " mmcht nigga fuck up " I looked up at him as he took a hit of the blunt
" Kay" He said lowly enough for me to hear so I also gave him a simple ok
" Nigga nicki ass fatter than cardi trust" Leon said making all his friends to look at him, " nah cardi fasureeee" Camrin said
They continued talking about who was fatter while I sat there on my phone scrolling on tiktok
" Let's make a tiktok Essence" Leon asked, I thought about it for a split second but agreed
He took my phone and started typing in a sound, he did the sound ' all my bitches know about each other '
As we was making it I felt Kay staring at me causing me to blush a little bit. After we finished my mom came out and told me we was leaving
I got up and took my phone from Leon and I guess he unblocked himself making me laugh a little
" oh can I get y'all instas?" I asked and they all nodded, after they all followed. I got my phone from Kay and felt his hand grab on mine
He smirked at me and I just smiled at him but Leon noticed and pushed me away
I rolled my eyes and got in the car as my mom started smiling at me, " you feelin that one huh?"
" mommmmmm" I slouched in the seat and she started laughing.
I wanna get to know him.
