"mommy i'm home" i said loud enough for my mom to hear me because she's normally chilling in the living room or kitchen "hey baby im in the kitchen" i nodded walking to the kitchen "hey mom how was your day"she shrugged "it was a day i guess but i just want to let you know i cook dinner,your sister went to her boyfriends house for the night so you'll have to walk to school tomorrow unless you want me to take you and be a little late
and Aniyah is here she ate dinner and now she's in your chilling and she seems upset about something" i rolled my eyes because she did call me while i was at jordan's house and i didn't answer not because i was ignoring her
Jordan's step dad took us to go get chinese food and my phone was on silent in my pocket while jordan was playing around i guess i didn't feel it vibrate but when i tried to call her back she didn't answer
so i guess she's even more mad so i just shook my head and told my mom "ight uhhh ill eat later because Jordan fed me at his house but that was a little earlier so i'll probably be back down for it later but if not i'll put everything away and now im gonna go upstairs and hear the music"
my mom chuckled "you know she's just sensitive but she means well" i nodded "yeah i guess" i then made my way up the steps to see Aniyah sitting on the edge of my bed in pure silence like she was in a Tyler Perry movie
which made me shake my head and walk past her to get to my closet because i wanted to get in the shower because we did a lot today we played video games,nerd guns,he chase me down the street,and then we ate a big ass meal i'm exhausted
"where was you at all day" i continued to grab all the stuff for my shower and said "i was chilling with Jordan he asked me to come over his house" she made a face "and you went" i turned around and looked at her funny "uhhh yeah i didn't have shit else go do today and you were supposed to be with your man"
she scuffed "you know what i
mean when the fuck did y'all start chilling i'm confused because you ain't never tell me about wanting to be his friend any other time" i shrugged "he felt as though since both of us were best friends with you we should become bestie to so this could be a group thing sohe wanted to get to know me better and i said cool so he invited me over to his house where we played video games and chilled with his family" when i finished my sentence she looked at me like i was the slowest creature alive
"first off who told yall that was ok the fuck i never said i wanted y'all to be besties and i don't
want that to happen your my bestie and he's my bestie i don't
want yall to be besties because that would be cheating on me"i made a face "i mean what's the big deal it just makes sense we are always together,we all like some of the same things,and we all get along great" she huffed "because i said no see this is why we are budding heads now you never listen to me when i talk and you don't give a fuck sometimes i just feel like you don't love me"
i mentally rolled my eyes for her taking it to hell immediately and said "girl just because i question you don't mean i don't listen it means im confused on why your upset and if i don't feel as though what i did was wrong im gonna wanna communicate and get answers to why i have made you so upset"
she scuffed "i just told you i don't want yall being besties shit i don't even want y'all hanging out that's weird to me" i just huffed "but why though like cool i totally understand the not wanting us to be besties that's on a loyalty level or just you not wanting to share and that's fine
but what's wrong with us hanging out and being friends he's nice and good company to keep and i don't like him or look at him like that so what im asking you is why you so hell bent on us not being friends like have i or has he said something that has
made you feel like we look at each other more than friends" she rolled her eyes "like i said it's not ok and weird why do you wanna share everything i have like i just said no why can't you just take a no answer and run with it why does it always have to be a debate with you"
i huffed because clearly she was not going to give me an answer and i don't have time to tango around her bullshit to give me a real answer so i just said "man look it's clear that we are not on the same page about this topic and that's cool
i'll just stop talking to him it's really not that deep anymore" she scuffed "see your gaslighting me now i never said you couldn't take to him and that yall couldn't be strictly friends i said i don't want yall hanging out and being besties"
i looked at her with my eyebrows frowned because either i don't know how friendships work or she's a fucking psychopath because what i have learned over the years is that you can't control a relationship you have with a person
not unless you really want to "so your telling me we can be friends but not do anything friend related like hanging out so i'm guessing that goes for phone calls and texting also"
she nodded "what do yall need to text about all yall conversation should be held in school and 8 hours is more then enough time 12 hours if you count practice"
i nodded now done with this conversation "ok whatever you say Aniyah but i'm finna hop in the shower so if your staying the night you have to take the extra bed out my closet i put it up because it was taking up all my space"
