Niyah doesn't have the best life. She's 16-years-old and barely has her parents around, works and goes to school, and can barely juggle both. Most people aren't very fond of her, they all think that she's stuck up and think she's better than everyon...

It's been two hours since Brandon left, and I'm sure he's not coming back until tomorrow. I don't even get why he's upset? I didn't do anything wrong so I don't see a problem. All I did was hug Chris, and yeah it was longer than a second because it was a comforting hug. His hands were no where near my ass and mine were not wrapped around his neck, so what the hell is the problem..
"Niyah I'm hungry." Courtney said whining as she was sprawled out on my bed. She's been waiting up for Brandon even though I told her to just go to bed.
"Courty, go to bed babygirl. Your brother will be coming sooner or later just go to sleep for now." She cuddled up next to me and I wrapped my arms around her and rubbed her back. I waited 20 more minutes for Brandon to come back but he didn't. I'm not going to lay here to the break of dawn waiting for him, so I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.

"Niyah, mi amor, wake up." My father was shaking me gently to wake up and I rolled over opening my eyes and didn't see Courtney by my side. I sat up and looked around then looked at my father, "Where the hell is Courtney?"
"Relax mi hija, your mother is downstairs with her. It's damn near 1 o'clock you should be awake." I looked at the time and sat up fixing the bun in my hair.
"You know I'm not a bad guy Niyah, I've really changed. And you're the only one who doesn't see it because you're too busy thinking about the past."
"The past? Just a few months ago you beat my ass into a coma, and you think I'm just going to move on pass that and pretend it didn't happen? Nah, I'll need you to prove that you changed, not just spit some words to me."
"Okay, I will." My father stared at me for a while then came closer and kissed my forehead, "I love you Niyah."
I didn't say anything and just sat there staring at the floor. He got the hint that I didn't want to speak to him and left closing the door behind him.
Im constantly giving people chances on chances, and it's going to have to stop somewhere.
After a while I went to take a shower, brush my teeth, and take care of other necessary things. I dressed in blue jeans, a black and white tank top, and got my Concords ready and went downstairs for some breakfast.
After I finished eating I walked into my living room and saw Courtney in Brandon's lap as he was watching College Basketball. "Oh, so now you decide to come back."
He looked up at me and continued eating like I wasn't there. I stood in front of the TV with my arms crossed, waiting for an explanation; We stared at one another, and he didn't give one so I decided it was time to get it out of him.
"You wanna talk? Or are we going to sit here and act like nothing happened last night?" I asked and sat down on the couch next to him.
"Whatchu mean? There's nothin' to talk about. It's over with Niyah, you ain't do nothing and I was trippin'. Alright?"
