I woke up around 9:45 AM and started my usual routine: brushing my teeth and washing my face.
I headed downstairs to the kitchen, poured myself a bowl of cereal, and started watching my show while I ate.
As I was eating, my sister came down and greeted me.
"Good morning," she said.
"Good morning," I replied, looking up from my bowl. "Where's Mom? I realized she wasn't home when I got back last night."
Her expression turned serious. "There was a situation last night. The police were called, and they admitted her to the hospital."
Hearing that, I felt a wave of sadness and upset wash over me. I put down my spoon, my appetite suddenly gone. I put my bowl in the sink and headed upstairs.
Feeling overwhelmed, I headed back upstairs to my room. I turned on my game console, hoping to distract myself by playing for a bit. Just as I was getting into the game, my phone buzzed with a text from Rico.
"Meet at the field in 30."
"Omw."
I decided to get ready to meet Rico at the field. I took a quick shower and changed my clothes.
Right when I was about to leave my sister stopped me.
"Where you going? You dont even have practice today." She asked. Her voice filled with suspicion and I can tell shes ready to argue.
I know why tho, I rarely left the house. The only time I left was if I had practice or If I wanted to go to the corner store.
"Chill, im just going on a run. And training at the field on Caloosa for a bit."
"Do you really think its a good time to go out right now.." And she just continues on and on, and we begin to argue.
Finally, she lets me leave and I go meet rico at the field.
I finally got to the field, meeting Rico and his friends there.
"You late as hell man, had me thinking you wasnt gone show up." Rico says and laughs.
"Yeah na man, i just got into some with my folks. You know." I said.
"Its all good, these my boys tho. Tyrone, Malik, and Marcus." He introduces me to his friends and I dab them all up.
"Ay wassup mane! I heard you a beast on that field. I never seen you around tho. Bitches be talking bout you like crazy." Marcus said.
"Haha, yeah. Ion be out like that." I said.
"Shitt, fucking with niggas like us, we gone make sure you outside." Tyrone said.
"Yeahh we gone see, lets hit this field tho." I said.
"Bet." They all said.
——————————-——————————-———————
After the game, we were all tired and exhausted. Sitting down by the water foutain, panting.
"Good game yall boys." Malik says.
"Mhm. Im tired as fuck tho. A good nap is what i need." I stated.
"Yeah me too."
"Aye its a block party tonight, yall gone pull up?" Rico said.
"Hell yeah. Who party is it?"
"Leonardo's."
"Yeah we gone pull up, what bout you dom?"
I thought about it for a moment. Hanging out with the friends I just made and being a teenager instead of being stuck inside the house all day long.
"Ion know mane, I know how my sister gets." I said.
"Bro nigga, think about it. Bitches, weed, drinks. Nigga let off some steam."
"Right, fuck yo sister. Just sneak out da bih."
"Aye chill on my sister real shit."
"Tuh my bad."
I sat and thought about it for a second. Thinking about the fun and the excitement. No need to worry bout my drug addict momma, or my sister. Nothing.
"Ight, Ill go. I think my sister doing overtime anyways."
"Thats what im talking abouttt!"
"Dress yo best, its bitches up in there."
"Yeah, ima head home. What time is the party. Send me the address."
"Its at 9. Ima send it to ya."
"Ight, ima holla at yall later. See yall boys."
"Bye." They all said dabbing me up.
I then started my walk home.

I had woke up after a nap and checked the time off my phone. 8:30.
I had time, but not too much time. But i aint in a rush. Plus whos always early and on time to a party? Tuh.
I got up and took a shower. Then I went to the room trying to find my best fit, a yellow graphic tee , yellow stacks jeans , and yellow and jordan 4's thunder.
I checked my messages seeing I got one from rico and my sister.
"I wont be home untill tomorrow morning. Busy at work"
"Okay, love you." I texted back.
"When you bout ta pull up"
