I take a deep breath while holding onto the edge of my seat. The car is going at a steady pace but she doesn't seem to be slowing for potholes.
Whenever we hit one, I'm thrown back and forth and the bruises get hit.
I haven't showered...
I haven't eaten...
I haven't checked what anyone has been trying to say to me.
Lilly printed out my Feet Finder dashboard and has been driving me around to hand them out. We've stopped at our square, and I had to hand them out at the minimart, the bar and the car wash.
The memory of Burny looking at it and then back at me before trying to take them from Deportee and the other guys, causes more tears that I thought were done, to roll down my eyes.
*Atleast my face isn't on it*
The car finally slows after a very long drive. I use my stronger hand, the one with less bruises, to push myself up from the fetal position to figure out where our next stop is.
My eyes dance around the scene. Vision blurry yes, but I'm sure I know the surroundings.
My brain is lagging... but I'm surrrre I know the location.
*Sigh*
My body realizes what's happening before I do because I suddenly feel nauseous.
Vibration from my phone causes me to look at it. Yes, she left me with it, saying taking it from me won't change the fact that I'm a prostitute, so instead, she a help me promote me business.
The notifications have a million texts from Jacen, a million more from Terrence and a trillion and one from Kyan.
I look away but Kyan sends another one and the notification is begging me to open it...
... so I do.
Kyan👯: Know Lilly a do the most right now but anytime u ready fi we beat Melli mek me know.
Why me woulda beat Melli? Wah really do Kyan ina time like this. Her current concern pulls a sense of smile to my heart though it doesn't reach my face.
Kyan👯: Me know Jacen never send her that. Tell her take me outa her CF cause me anuh u. Me will post unuh when me 3rd wheel mek she dead.
What? Tell her what?
"I don't see a visit for a Ms.Brown today ma'am."
I look up to see the security guard at the gate, warning my mother to back away from the gate until he calls inside.
My fingers move to instagram on their own, only to find that Melli chose today to partake in another close friends petty war.
She posted a screenshot of him saying he loves her.
