"ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" I yelled into the pillow looking at the time.
I hated going out, but if I say I'll show up that's just what I got to do. I dramatically got out of bed and slowly walked to my bathroom.
I did my hygiene necessities again and walked into my attached closet. I looked around and just decided on something basic. I picked out a cute oversized t-shirt, some tan shorts, and tan bubble slides.
"Cute" I said to myself as I finished changing. I grabbed my phone off the charger and checked my notifications. I ended up texting my bestfriend back and she let me know the party started at 10:00 .. so I'll be there at 10:30.
I checked the time and it was getting closer to 5:00 so I grabbed my purse, lip gloss, charger, my card, and keys before walking out my bedroom door.
I turned off the lights and closed my front door. I made sure to lock it and made my way to the car.
I texted my dad to let him know I was on the way and he hearted the message. I opened my door and sat in the drivers seat. I picked out my song before reversing and making my way to my dad's house.
I put on my seatbelt and listened to the music.

Ok yes I'm running a bit behind but that traffic????? Bitch please.
I took the keys out the ignition and grabbed my things. It was hard finding parking since it was a family gathering. I made my way to the front door passing all the kids playing in the front yard.
"HEY RIYA!" One of my little cousins yelled.
"Hey!" I said back waving.
"Who is that?" I heard somebody ask.
I just walked into the house before even seeing who asked that stupid shit. I closed the door and made my way through the house.
"Heyyyyyyy favorite nieceeeee" My auntie said, smelling like vodka, putting her arm over my shoulder.
"Hey auntie." I chuckled moving her arm making my way to the kitchen.
"Hey babygirl." My dad said once he spotted me. He was with Lisa who was looking so beautiful. She saw me and smiled. Of course I hugged her before I hugged my dad.
Thats my girlllllll.
"Oh wow. So it's just forget me then?" My dad said looking at the both of us looking sad.
"You know Riya has to give me all the loving before you" Lisa laughed pushing his shoulder.
"Remember that when yall need the girl day paid for." He said sitting back down in his seat.
"Oh be quiet grumpy man" I said laughing giving him a hug.
"So, how is everything going Riya?" Lisa asked me sipping her wine sitting back down.
"Everything is good. My business is growing and my financial things are getting better everyday. I have been looking to get another apartment but I'm not sure right now." I replied checking the time on my watch.
"Got somewhere you need to be?" My dad questioned me as he took a bite of his food.
"Umm, no just gotta watch the timing. Going out with Jas later and I don't want to be late." I told him.
"I haven't seen Jas in forever. You should bring her by one of these days" Lisa chimed in.
"Yea she'd probably like that" I responded with a slight smile.

Welp my social battery has runnnnnn outtttt. I have my airpods in sitting in the living room. I feel like I check the time every minute and it's still the same.
My aunties are just drunk and messy, my cousins are young, and everyone else just irritated me. I looked around at my family and noticed how large it was. I never wanted a big family for myself. Just a loving supportive husband and just one child.
I looked down at my phone to check the time and it was 6:21 pm. I sighed, looked back up, and down at my phone again. I got up to say my goodbyes because im not sitting here for four more hours, no shade.
I made my way to the kitchen where my dad and Lisa was and honey .. tore up ain't even the worddddd. Lisa was twerking on my daddy yall. I laughed and told them bye from the door. They waved back and contiuned doing they thang. I walked out the house and made my way to my car.
"Lemme call Jas ass" I said getting in the car.

"Hey bitchhhhhhhhhh" I heard Jas say as she answered the phone. See Jas has always been my go-to person. Me and her been bestfriends since elementary school. That bitch stole one of my gold fish and ever since then, thats's been my rock. I love her so much and I'd do anything for her crazy ass.
"Bitchhh, where you at? I'm bored over here at my daddy house so I'm leaving." I said putting my car in reverse.
"I'm over here at Derrick house. Push up over here." I heard her say.
I heard other people in the background and she know ion do people.
"Umm Jasmine .. who tf over there? Yo brother always got people up over there." I said making my way out my daddy's neighborhood.
"Its just me, D, Malik, Ty, and Mj" She said. I heard Derick say something in the background and Jas sucked her teeth.
"What Derrick said?" I asked stopping at the red light.
"He talking bout don't come up over here. BOY STFU TALKING TO MY BESTFRIEND. hoe." I heard Jas yell at Derrick.
"Bitch." I said laughing. "I'm dead asf. Tell him I said keep that same energy when I get up over there. Im 8 minutes away." I said back making a right turn.
"Bet. Be safe love you bitch." Jas said hanging up.
