Ravens pov
"Hey baby girl how was school" my dad asked me as soon as I walked in the house seeing though him and my pops was sitting on the couch
"Uhh kinda weird everyone kept complimenting me and the boys kept commenting on my body" my dad chuckled "well you are pretty and have a nice body for a girl your age why are you upset or think it's weird people find you pretty"
"Because I'm not use to it dad I went to a majority white school back home nobody in that school gave me compliments" my dads nodded because they knew I was right but just said
"Ok change of topic now that the house is finished we are having some company over today I invited some colleagues over for dinner and they have kids around the same age as you so
Ima need you to go freshen up before dinner" I rolled my eyes "y'all I thought we didn't like people. Where are we having company" my dad just looked at me "we are trying to be more extroverted and so should you it's more practice for the future now go dinner is almost ready
They will be here very soon" I just huffed before walking downstairs to my room my room is the finished basement
*time jump*
"RAVEN COME UPSTAIRS ARE COMPANY IS HERE" I rolled my eyes then got from under my cover and started to make my way up the steps to to see nobody
So I walked further in the living room to only see my dads "I though y'all said the company was here" my pops shook his head "nah we just want you to se the table so your not actually down stairs when they come"
I just shook my head and went in the dinning room to see everything on the table for me to set up it only took me a few minutes but still they could have did this themselves like this is their company
"Ok now are company is really here come on baby girl" I finished putting my last fork down before walking into the living room to see hella people which made me wanna turn back around immediately
But my pops gave me a hand gesture to come here so I did and stood in between my dads for comfort "welcome to our home yall this is my husband Braylon and our baby girl Raven now raven is a little shy so she doesn't talk much" my dad said with a chuckle
"Braylon, Raven these are my coworkers Kelly and Brianna with their husbands Michael and Brian and I'm so sorry you didn't tell me you kids names"
The very tall lady light skin lady said "this is my daughter Payton and this is my godson Brandon" the boy and the girl waved but I was looking extra hard because they look familiar but I just let it go for right now
*time jump*
"So Raven I hear your the same age as these to what school do you go to" we are now at the table eating and Ms.Kelly keeps asking me questions I know she's trying to be nice because I'm not talking much but
I'm completely fine with not talking "I go to Sampson highschool" she nodded "really so do they have you ever seen them around school" I shook my head no making the girl that was my age scuff
"You sat next to me in English class this morning" ohhhh that's where I remember her from but I just said "i didn't really notice anyone I was just trying to learn my surroundings"
She just rolled her eyes and stuff another piece of steak in her mouth "hey Raven maybe when y'all are done eating you can show them to the den and y'all can chill while the adults drink some wine"
I shot eye daggers at my dad because stop volunteering me for thing what the fuck "dad we are gonna have a talk after dinner" I said not looking up from my plate making my dad chuckle
"Yeah yeah I know hurry and eat your food" I just rolled my eyes as I took slower bites of my food I just wanna avoid human contact why is that so bad
*time jump*
Ok so after eating like a turtle for about 45 minutes my dad finally made me put my plate in the sink and now I'm walking the children who name I have forgotten to the family den
And once we got in their I said "we have board games,tv,card games,and snacks y'all can knock yall selfs out" then I sat in the corner part of the couch seeing as though I can't leave them alone because my dads will freak out
"Ayo ma I got a question for you" I had my phone in my face so I slightly lowered it assuming he was talking to me and I was correct "my name is Raven" the boy chuckled "I know your name I just think Ma fits you better but anyway now that I have your attention
Why you been rubbing off so hostile the whole dinner did we do something to you or something" I raised an eyebrow "what do you mean hostile this is just how I am"
I kept my answer short and sweet not to trigger anymore conversation but unfortunately they didn't get the hint "when my dukes tried to ask you questions you gave her one words answers or very short ones
Then you barely talked the whole dinner you just whispered to your dads every now and again we just tryna get to know you why you so mean baby girl"
I rolled my eyes again at the unnecessary pet name "I'm not mean my father made it very clear I don't talk much I just don't like people it's not a direct attack it's just how I am groups of people make me nervous"
"Well it's two of us and you seem pretty ok to me I think your lying" what is wrong with these people why can't I just be shy why do I gotta be all that they are making me anxious
"You are giving me anxiety so what I just said about the snacks board game and to still stand I'm going to continue to be on my phone please don't talk to me anymore"
