From Condos to the Streets

34.

in honor of that heat Herb just dropped

I got up early in the morning to go to the grocery store to get something to eat. Herb was knocked out and I didn't feel like messing with him.

I walked up the frozen food aisle to get some sausages when I saw a very familiar face.

"Naomi?" I went up closer. Her eyes widen as she took a couple steps back. "W-what are you doing here?" She asked nervously.

"I-I thought you were dead? M-mom said so" I lifted my hand towards her. She shook her head, "mom's a liar!" She screamed and took off running.

I dropped everything in my hands and went after her. She wasn't going to leave me with the word in my mouth. I needed the truth and I was gonna get it no matter what.

"Naomi!" I screamed as I ran after her. "leave me alone!" She screamed back. She wasn't looking where she was going and she ran into a pole which made her fall.

"Nay, stop I need to know the truth please!" I begged her.

She touched her head, "No. and you need to leave, you can't be here it's too dangerous"

"I'm not leaving until I know the whole truth, mom told me bits and pieces. I need to know more" I gripped her hand. She looked up at me.

"Jen it's only gonna hurt you more" she said with tears forming in her eyes.

"I don't care I. need. to. know." I said gripping her hand harder each time.

"Fine! I'll tell you!" She said ripping my hand away from her hand. She stood up and walked towards a bench.

"Mom threw me out the house when I was her age. That's why her and the younger one don't know anything of me. She told dad I left and didn't want to come back. I was angry and I ended up here. I worked as a pole dancer and eventually I become a stripper. I did anything just to get some money. I went threw a whole lot, that caused me to hate you all more and more each day. So I did something I shouldn't have and now I regret it" She paused and I could see her bottom lip start to tremble.

"No" I shook my head, "no nay you couldn't have. not to her!?!" I said in horror at the possible thought.

She nodded her head and covered her mouth, "I did" she whispered bursting out in tears.

"How could you!!!!! Her, out of everyone else! Why not me?!" I screamed standing up. "Jen please I was young and angry I didn't know better. I just wanted to get back at you guys for making me feel like shit!"

"No! You took it out on her with her having nothing to do in this! She doesn't even remember you!!!!!" I kept screaming.

"I thought maybe I would feel good but when I saw her I felt worse and I made her go thru a lot of shit I'm regretting now" She stood up too.

I started to walk off. "Jen please forgive me!" She screamed.

Then I got a thought in my head and immediately turned around, "you framed her didn't you?" I asked her with anger in my eyes.

She looked down and that's when I knew she had ruined our family for good.

-Short chapter, I know.

-But who do y'all think she talking bout?
