Netia
I fidgeted with wires .Here I was in the well barricaded green house trying to set up a music system so I could feel a little more at peace .
Hell , I should've had Chris do this shit .
I sighed and put my head in my hands and looked to my left and a light bulb went off in my head .
Sure could use a stress reliever. I dragged the metal bar stool all the across the room to a little opening in the roof which held a bird house .
I opened the lach and pulled out two wooden pencil case boxes .
I jumped down making a thud noise .
"Hey"
I dropped the boxes and held my hand over my chest to turn and see August .
"You almost scared the legit shit out of me " I breathed out clutching my chest .
"I'm sorry ma " He chuckled .
"Oh it's fine "
"What ya doin' back hea . By yo self ?"
"I uhhhh . ummmmm what are you doing back here " I questioned while picking up the two boxes .
"Real smart . I asked a question first "
"To be quite blunt , I'm going to blaze one & look at pictures, Amongst this mindin' my business . What you doing back here" I said putting them behind my back .
He smirked .
I briefly rolled my eyes and inched to the stool and work table .
"I'm hea at properly thank ya & see what ya up too"
I nodded and opened the two boxes , I looked up at him standing looking around awkwardly .
"You can join me if you want "
He took a seat in the other metal stool adjacent from me , I took out a picture & I started laughing so hard .
He looked at me questionably and I kept laughing , I then showed him the picture of Chris and I when we were younger, Chris thought it was funny to play with granny's wigs and dance around the house thinking he was Michael Jackson .
Talkin' bout he got the "feeling"
Yeah he got that feeling , that feeling of the belt when granny whooped his light and bright ass .
I began rolling up a joint , when I was finished I baked it somewhat and then sparked up .
I blew out the smoke and began looking over many pictures .
August kept on teasing me about my baby pictures , and we laughed at ole peanut headed Chris's baby pictures .
I came past a more recent picture of my parents , Chris and I .
It was last Christmas , we had a ugly sweater competition and I won .
I ran my fingers over our faces , I smiled , we were so happy .
"We had a uh , ugly sweater competition and I won. my sweater had a reindeer's face on the front and the rest of his body was on the back . When you press the nose it sang"
I smiled as tears welled up in my eyes ,
"Aye you okay ma?"
"Yeah . I think you should go , I'm sure your busy , I'll uh , finish up what ever I was doing "
"Well ion got nothin' to do so I ca chill with you "
"Please just go" I said as tears brimmed my eyes.
"Why?"
"Please stop . Go August , " I sighed as the tears threatened to fall.
"You gonn-"
"I'll be fine ! Go ! Leave me be August !" I chased him out as he scrunched up his face .
I locked the green house door and slid down to the bottom ,
Where are you mommy and Daddy?
