The Sanative Rose

Chapter Four Friday

"With your right hand, you save me."

Psalm 138:7.

Friday morning...

The house is crazy this morning as we are trying to rush out. Once again, we are late. I look all around for my gold ring that my grandfather, Poppa, gave me. For some reason I can't find it! This is frustrating!

"CAN SOMEONE PLEASE FIND THE BRUSH."

"WE DON'T KNOW WHERE IT IS, BRII." Balice yells.

"YALL ARE SO IRRITATING." she yells.

I walk into the bathroom. "Whatever Brii."

Where is my ring?

I hear my mom say from her room, "Come on you guys, we're going to be late."

I walk into her room and say, "Mom, I can't find my ring," I sigh in frustration.

"That's on you Bray. You are always losing it."

I scan her room, finding the gold ring on the dresser.

I pick it up. "Ooh...found it."

Thank God.

She gives me an annoyed look.

"Thanks," I grin before walking out of her room.

"Finish getting ready and go downstairs Bray!" she says.

"Okay..." I say, getting a little annoyed.

I go into my room and grab my things and head downstairs. I start to make my sister's and my breakfast and soon enough, Brii comes down with Bailey on her back. She sits her down on the chair and I give her her breakfast.

"Good luck with therapy today, Bailey," I say.

"You're not coming?" she asks.

I smile at her. "Noppers, I have a date tonight,"

"Really? Is it with that boy you were talking about in the car the other day?"

"Yeah, his name's Trey."

She smiles at me. "Ohh, I hope you have fun."

"I'm a little nervous."

"Don't be, Bray," Brii walks into the room. "Yeah, mom told me. I can't believe she's actually letting you go. If it was me, it would've been no from the start."

I shrug. "She did say no at first, but Trey wanted to meet her to change her mind."

Brii puts her shoes on. "He must really like yo ugly butt."

I roll my eyes and say, "I didn't even know you stayed over, Brii...you going with mom to therapy today?"

"Yeah...where Twin at?"

"Upstairs, I think." says Bailey.

"BALICE," says Brii.

"YEAH?"

"BRING DOWN MY CHARGER FOR ME."

"UH, FINE," she says.

Balice comes downstairs and hands Brii her charger.

I smile at Bailey and Balice. "Aw, y'all ACTUALLY look like twins today."

Both Bailey and Balice's hair are in a high bun with 1 braid hanging on each side and they both have a black uniform on with silver hoops. They look so cute.

Balice walks into the kitchen after saying, "Oh, shut up,"

I smile and put my shoes on. Mom comes downstairs and puts Bailey's shoes on.
