-I think about the day i met.. the perfect stranger.. i think about us.. I let those lyrics run through my head as i laid spread out on my bed. my body was numb, everything was spinning, i felt dizzy, my mouth felt like cotton, it was pure heaven.
"may, you good?" adah pulled out her airpod. "i don't know. i can't wiggle my toes," i kept staring up at the ceiling. "me neither," rue caressed my finger, "did you feel that?" "mhm," i nodded. "you got any snacks?" she asked. I thought about it.
"nah. i was on a spree last night and ate them all. i have to buy more before maleah gets back tomorrow," i ran my fingers through my hair. "we should hit up that diner downtown," adah suggested. "i'm in," i drug my body off of my bed, "oh shit." i smacked the back of my hand against my forehead at how light my head felt.
i grabbed my keys and wallet.
adah opened my window, airing the blasting smell of weed out. rue sprayed eight pounds of strong ass perfume on. "damn bitch! how much do you fucking need?!" adah rubbed her nose. "i'm cooked if i go home smelling like weed," rue shook her head, setting the bottle down.
"i thought your mom knew?" i looked around.
she shook her head and walked out. my aunts gonna resent me if she finds out i smoked a recovering drug addict up. "where you going?" my mom crossed her arms once i reached the bottom of the stairs. "to the diner..?" i furrowed my brows.
"look at me," she stared into my eyes. i tried, but it was hard. i busted out laughing. she hit me with a hand towel, "stop smoking that shit! do you know that weeds a drug? drugs are gonna kill you!" "weeds not a drug, it's a coping mechanism," i swallowed hard.
