The past few days have went by in the blink of an eye. I have reverted back to my same old routine. Work. School. Drama at home. Repeat. On the bright side though, Brittany and her friends have not bothered me. On my first day back to school she couldnt even look me in the eye. She told everybody the reason she had bandages on her nose was because she got a "nose job" yea....ok girl.
I havent seen Travis around at all and I'm glad for it. With everything that has been going on, seeing him is the last thing I need. I havent really seen Layla or Leon either. Layla got suspended for a week for beating up Trina and Angie yesterday. Leon has the flu and mono at the same time. I told him to quit hooking up with guys from the football team....and the softball team....and few basketball players and Zeke from radio shack but he doesnt listen to me. I do not condone cross contamination so I told him to stay away until he gets better. We facetime all day though. I havent heard from Erik. It's not like I expected him to keep blowing me up anyway. Im not gonna lie, it hurts a little but I have to move on..even though my dreams of him have returned with a coochie crippling vengence. I have had to change my sheets 3 times in 2 days.....that explains itself.
Tommorow is Thursday so I went and asked my guidance counselor If I could I needed to keep attending class on campus and because I have enough credits and hours she told me that I dont have to come back until graduation. That sounds great to me, I can get me more hours and pick up more shifts at work. My mom and I have been ok in each other's presence lately.
We had a mini break through my first night back home. I told her that she needs to separate me and her boyfriends and that if she didnt I would burn the whole damn trailer down with me in it to see everybody suffer. I admit that was a bit dramatic, but I get my hardheadedness from my mama and considering this was the first time I had ever spoke up for myself I think it is safe to say we have an understanding. I know she still has an addiction and the past 10 years of trauma and neglect she inflicted upon me will never go away. However we decided to start fresh, she fucked up our relationship during my childhood, but I want our relationship in my adult life to be different. She wants that too so I think that is a good start. Clarence has been around less and I have been seeing more of her lately. Im not complaining. My mediocre life has been steady lately and I dont wanna jinx anything. I decided on my way home to pick up some brownies from Che's Bakery. I figured my mama and I could watch a movie and eat some sweets tonight.
I walk in the bakery and wait in the long ass line wrapped around the bakery. Che's was the best bakery in town and has been booming in business since the 80's. Che or Nana Che as I call her has looked out for me for as long as I can remember. She is the closest thing I have to a grandmother and she has always seen me as another one of her "sweet babies". When I was little and mama would disappear for a few days she would pick me up from school and let me stay at her place. She always made sure I had a hot meal and warm bed. Her family was back in Baton Rouge so I was the only grandbaby she got to be around all the time. She would take me back to school shopping and get my hair done. She was a top tier woman and without her I would not have made it this far.
