We ended up being at a place called Maria's kitchen.

I was just sitting in the car scrolling on my phone, I don't wanna go in there. I hadn't even noticed that my mom was already inside the restaurant and waiting for me. Even if I did, I don't even like people like that so I probably would've stayed either way.

I saw her come back out the restaurant and she looked irritated so I grabbed my things and got my ass out the car quick as hell. She came up to me and dragged me by my ear all the way to the table. She slapped me upside my head.. in front of everybody.

She side eyed me and went back to her seat and I sat down beside her. I heard a few giggles so I just got on my phone and put one of my AirPods in.

I looked up and my mama was running her mouth to two other older looking women who i'm guessing were her friends. There was three empty seats next to one of the lady's and two open beside the other.

Good morning gorgeous by Mary J. Blige started to play and I tapped my fingers to the beat on my thigh under the table.

My mom slid a menu over to me and I started flipping through it. My eyes landed on something call cajun seafood alfredo and it sounds good so that's what i'm getting.

After a few minutes four little girls and an older girl came up to the table and sat down. The younger girls looked like their ages ranged from 4-7 and the older one looked about 15.

The older girl glanced at me and then returned her attention back to who I'm guessing are her little sisters.

my mom tapped my arm and signaled for me to
take my AirPods out so I slightly rolled my eyes and did as told.

"trin where's your other baby? I heaven's seen her in a while.." My mother asked the woman with a big curly afro and glasses.

"Girl you know she just got herself an apartment and she's a working girl so she usually doesn't have time for the things we used to do together. she should be able to come next week though."

"oh ok. well it's good she's trying more for herself now." dukes replied picking up a menu and looking through it.

-after the dinner-

"ma can we stop at the corner store?" I asked, powering my almost dead phone off and dropping it in the cup holder.

"yea. I need to get gas anyways. get me some ice cream while you in there. butter pecan." She said turning into the gas station. She parked at one of the gas pumps and handed me a ten dollar bill out her wallet. "you can keep whatever's left over."
