My Trap Love

The Bad News

It was 7:05 in the morning. The time my alarm clock woke me up. I don't know why it woke me up this early because I didn't even have anything planned for today. My mom probably set it in the middle of the night. I hate when she does that shit.
*Mom walks in*
Mom: Good morning sweetheart, did you sleep well?
"No, thanks to you" I said with an attitude.
Mom: Did you forget about your uncle's funeral we had to go to today? I can't believe you would forget something like that!
"I can't believe it either" I thought to myself
*Flashback*
(Uncle's Pov)
In case you didn't know, I'm apart of a gang. Blood gang to be exact. Bs all day nigga what's bracking? My sisters always on my case about how I'm a 36 year old man and I should get a job before I think about being in any gang but it's not that easy. If I try to leave that gang, them niggas might try to kill me or some shit. Anyways my bro Chris called me up.
Chris: Yo
Yo
Chris: You pulling up?
Pulling up where?
Chris: The trap nigga you already know
Nigga don't talk to me like I'm yo child.
Chris: "Shut yo bitch ass up and get over here" he said with a small laugh.
Aight I'm on my way bro
Chris: Aight bro later
Later
I went in the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face, I may be a thug but a nigga still gotta be clean. As I set my toothbrush down on the toothbrush holder I went into my bedroom,grabbed my keys,and left. As I was walking down the block I started hearing gunshots and screaming. As I turned around it was the same crip niggas that me and the squad had beef with a couple weeks ago.
"What you need to say now pussy?" The crip nigga said as he fired a gunshot. As the bullet was on its way hurdling towards me I started thinking to myself... Why me?
*Flashback over*
(Tiffany's Pov)
Sorry mom I'll start getting ready now. "You better be ready by 7:30 cause the funeral is all the way in Brooklyn" she said. "Why Brooklyn if we live all the way in Queens?" I responded. "Because your Uncle always said the day he died he wanted his funeral to be in Brooklyn cause that's where he was from, now no more questions we have to leave in 20 minutes". She said as she slammed the door. She always has some type of attitude for no reason which gets under my skin sometimes but I didn't really think about it too much. I walked to the  bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face with the neutrogean face wash with the oatmeal formula. After that I went in the shower. It only takes me about 8 minutes to take a shower. 15 if I'm washing my hair too. Once I got out the shower I walked to my room, put on lotion and went straight to the closet to pick out my outfit. "5 MORE MINUTES TIFFANY" my mom screamed from outside my bedroom door". "ALRIGHT MOM", I screamed back. I picked out a black tank top with my black ruffled skirt and my black flats. I'm more of a tomboy so I don't normally wear skirts or dresses but I knew my mom was gonna bug me about it so I just wore it before she could get to me. I put my hair in a high messy bun and put on my favorite body spray... Japanese Cherry Blossom. I LOVE Japanese Cherry Blossom body spray. If it was an actress I would be its number one fan. "2 MORE MIN--" She got cut off as I walked out my room dressed and ready. "Good job" she said. I grabbed my iPhone 6 and left. We hopped in the car and started going on our way. I was playing Crossy Road and texting my nigga Damion. Y'all probably don't know about him. We started going out last week. He asked me out in class over a note. He said he was too embarrassed to ask me to my face which I didn't understand stand cuz it's not like I was a swindle master or something. Our cuffing date is 9/18/15. He already loves me and we haven't even been going out for a month. "Who you texting?" My mom asked. "Oh nobody". "Oh ok well we'll be there in 15 minutes" my mom said. "K" I responded.
*15 minutes later*
"We're here" my mom said. I hopped out the car and walked inside. Everybody looked back. Somebody was in the middle of making a speech. It felt mad awkward. The funeral was about 3 hours long and throughout all that, the whole time I was just thinking about going home. I didn't really care about the funeral cause I wasn't even that close to my uncle and his sister did tell him that it wasn't a good idea to be in that stupid gang but his dumass ain't wanna listen. After the funeral my mom and I went out to go grab something to eat at Red Lobsters. When we walked in, the waitress escorted us to our table. Now I'm not gay but she was looking pretty sexy. Once we sat down I ordered right away cause I eat the same thing every time I go to Red Lobsters and I don't like to wait. "I would like a plate of lobsters and fries please" I said. "Sure thing" she responded "And how about you miss?" She asked my mom. "Oh, no thank you I'm not hungry" my mom replied. "Ok I'll be back with your order in about 10 minutes" she said. "Ok thank you" I responded. My mom and I sat at the table in silence until she asked about my boyfriend Damion. "So how are things going with you and Damion?" She asked. "To be honest I'm not really feeling him like that anymore. I mostly just went out with him cause I didn't wanna hurt his feelings." "Tiffany, I know you don't want to hurt him but it's not nice to do things like that cause the whole time he could be thinking you like him a lot and you're really just going out with him to please him" she said. "Mom it's my life and I can do what I want" I replied with an attitude" "Ok well the attitude wasn't necesse--" she said as she got cut off. "Here are your lobsters and fries" the waitress said as she set my food on the table. "Thank you". It took me about 10 minutes to eat then we left. The whole time we was in the car my mom looked like she had something on her mind. "Listen mom I'm sorry for the way I talked to you I just don't like when you try to butt into my love life" "It's ok sweetie but that's not what's on my mind right now" she answered. "So what's wrong?" I asked. "It's just that being in Brooklyn gives me a good feeling cause it's way better then Queens. It's so nice here and your Uncle grew up here". "So what are you saying?" I asked. "Honey... we're moving to Brooklyn" she said as if she was just ripping off the bandage. "WHAT! BUT ALL MY FRIENDS ARE HERE AND WHAT ABOUT DAMION?" "I thought you said you don't like him" she said. "Well I don't, but that's not the point, the point is we can't move". "I've already made up my decision Tiffany,we're moving in 2 days." "How can you just say we're moving and only give me 2 days?" I asked. "It's not that serious Tiffany just start saying goodbye when you get to school tomorrow". We reached home and I got out the car, slammed the door, and went inside. I called up my best friend Nia to tell her the bad news.
*Nia answers on the third ring*
Nia: Hey Tiff what's up?
"Hey" I said in an upset tone.
Nia: What's wrong?
I-I'm moving.
Nia: WHAT WHY?
My mom said Brooklyn is better than Queens and how my Uncle grew up there.
Nia: How long do you have?
2 days
Nia: How can she give you two days?
I don't know she really irks my nerves
Nia: Wow I can't believe this.
Me neither girl but I'm bout to get ready to go to bed girl I'll see you tomorrow.
Nia:K later
Bye.
I hung up then went to the bathroom to take a shower. When I got out I brushed my teeth,put on my pajamas and went to bed.
*Next day*
I walked into school and everybody was coming up to me asking me if I'm really moving. Nia always had a big mouth. I saw Damion.
Damion: Hey babe.
Hey
Damion: I heard you're moving.
Yup
Damion: I'm gonna miss you.
Oh ok
Damion: "Aren't you going to miss me?" He asked with a sad look on his face
Look Damion... We've only been dating a week and you're already coming on too strong. And I only said yes when you asked me out cause I didn't wanna hurt your feelings.
Damion: So you've been lying to me the whole time?
Yeah pretty much
Damion: Wow I can't believe you'd do something like this, you know the reason I asked you out was because I thought you were different from other girls. I thought you were cool.
"K bye" I said in a not-caring tone.
"Wow" Damion said as he walked away with a sad look on his face.
I didn't really care about the situation. All I cared about was the whole moving thing. Hours passed by and school was over. I normally walk home with Nia but I wasn't in the mood to. I just wanted to be alone. I got home then played on my phone and watched tv for a couple hours then went to bed.
Today was the day... The moving day.

I know this chapter is boring 😩 But it will be much more interesting when Tiffany moves and meats her nigga. 😝
