When I got home  I went straight upstairs to to do my homework and just think about the stuff that happened today I just hope shaniyah forgives me. As I was finishing up my homework I heard a knock on my door when I opened it my mother was on the other side telling me to come downstairs with this gigantic smile on her face as I walked downstairs and  I heard a lot of commotion when I got there I Saw someone I had been hoping to see since I was 6. He said hey baby girl and I just walked right past I don't have time for this there is already too much on my mind as it is so I just walked to the kitchen and got some juice and tried to go back upstairs but my dad stopped me because he was blocking the door he begged for me to talk to him so I just decided to say what do you want. Once he realized I spoke to him he apologized but all I heard was lies lies lies over and over again once he stopped talking I said ok and proceeded to walk till he said so u agree to come stay with me next week I only live a block away I just moved back I was to in shock to say anything so I just stood their I guess he took that as a yes and told me he would pick me up at 5 this Saturday and left, I just looked at my mom and got so mad so she was just going to let a man I don't know keep me for a week and on top of that she didn't even have the audacity to tell me he was coming she is always keeping secrets but today I'm gonna get my answer to all my questions so I asked my mom if we could talk she looked at me weird but agreed the minute she sat down u asked the question that had been on my mind for years  mom why did my dad leave In the first place  she sighed and mumbled something under her breathe and began to explained that that night my dad had been out super late and she wanted to know why so she asked he said he had to work and at first she believed him until she saw lipstick on his neck and scratches on his back so she asked what really happened and he explained that he had gotten really drunk and slept a random girl and the minute she heard him say he cheated she told him to pack his stuff and leave at the point my mom thought that he would comeback to visit but  he never she said she called him numerous times till she realized that he had changed his number but a couple weeks ago he had called her asking to see me so she agreed that he could see me today and that she didn't tell me because she knew I wouldn't agree once she had said all that a whole bunch of memories came back but there  were really fuzzy but I know something's missing here there's something I'm not remembering about that night but I guess I'll remember in time so I said thank you for finally explaining because for all these years that's why uv been so mad at you but hopefully we can start over so for now on I give you my fool trust we I said those words I saw relief and love but also worry which confuses me but I just put it to the back of my head and continued on upstairs as soon as I got upstairs I wanted to call shaniya so bad and tell her the good news so I called her but she didn't answer so I just gonna assume she's busy so I went into the bathroom brushed my teeth and went to bed

When I woke up the next morning my mom was already gone so I just got ready and left the house and walked to the bus once I got to the bus I saw shaniya so of course I ran up to her but when I yelled her name she just rolled her eyes I just ignored and went up to her once I reached her she was talking to Rachel so I said " excuse me Rachel can I talk to shaniya for a minute?"
She said "sure" and walked away. once   She was gone I asked shaniya "what's going on are you mad at me because I truly am sorry" she said "if your sorry why would you lie on Anthony like that" and when she said that I got scared that means he knows that I told and now he's gonna tell everyone.  "Shaniya why would you tell him that know he's gonna tell my secret I thought you said you weren't going to tell I thought I could trust you"  I said   "Well I thought I could trust you first you tell me anothony cheated on me and even he did cheat on me which he didn't. You decided it was ok to tell me a whole month afterwards like you should have just kept it to yourself if you were going to wait so long." I was taking back that she pretty much would rather not know the truth and that she would take his word over mine. I felt so betrayed but I guess in its own little way it was my fault. So instead of escalating this argument anymore I just got on the bus and sat in my regular spot some how wishing that this could be the first day of school again so I could start over but that would never happen. so I just put my headphones in and scrolled through Instagram till i saw something that broke my heart Anthony had posted my secret on his page for everyone to see
