Megan: Bye boo 🤪
*Ends FaceTime *
This is stressful ive never done something like this moving outside my bubble all the way to California. Away from my weekend mom, sister, and sperm donor... Never would've thought my quiet ass would be making such a bold step. I'm terrified and don't know what I'm doing honestly. I just feel like there's a world out there I haven't seen yet and this is my chance. My reality check is I'm broke asf. I missed the rich parents gig and got stuck with one who didn't want to be a mother and father who loves the streets more than his kids. I Wish I was ...
* Knock on door*
Coco: Come in
Asia: Hey sis, you all packed
Coco: yep, I think so just need to double check my list tomorrow
Asia : *sigh * Can we talk
Coco: sure
Asia : *sits on bed* I know your scared
Coco: of what ?
Asia: moving away from home even if it's a shitty home
Shitty is an understatement I would add the words hostile, hopeless, breeding ground for fuckery. My sister Asia is the only half decent one in this house. She's basically my mom. Our mom a shitty one cares more about staying young then being a mother. After wasting her youth being a baby maker for man who loves the streets and his homeboys way more then her. I refuse to be the same.
Asia: Courtney you good ? I was talking to you
Coco: Sorry, I zoned out what did you say ?
Asia: what's your plan when you get to Berkeley
Coco: umm well ... get acclimated to campus and my classes and hopefully find a on campus job
Asia: what about socially ?
Coco: what you mean ?
Asia: *smirks* coco your very shy when it comes to people and-
Coco: Not you too, Megan already gave this whole spill about me going all the way to California and my " shy ass " this and that
Asia: First calm down, I may be worried but I'm happy for you somebody had to break this shitty family curse and it looks like it's gonna be you little sis.
Coco: you could break it also move outside of Houston stay in California with grandma and-
Asia: Courtney, that's not realistic or where I wanna be * pauses* plus, someone has to hold the fort down in Houston make sure our family doesn't fall fucking apart *grinning* and you have something to come home to. I just wanted to check on you and tell you I'm proud and happy about this step your taking don't look back okay ?
*Grabs door handle*
Coco: Okay
* door closes *
Around 1:55 Am
*Ding*
Ryan's texting me that's weird I wonder what she still doing up this late usually she knocked out by nowRyan is a trip a nigga is the last thing on my mind right now *laughs * turns lights off goes to bed
Sooooo.. this what I've come up with so far like I said don't know what I'm doing or where I want this story to go but yea I guess this is my introductory chapter or whatever 😁
