I would not read this in public! I warned you. and I did not proof read!

Anthony took a step back and stared the lady down. He tried to find the resemblance but couldn't. He couldn't believe the nerve of this lady. Taking another look he shook his head. She looked just like Autumn and if that was the case they both were in fucked up positions.

"My mother is senile and in a nursing home. I don't know what crack you're on but I have somewhere of importance to be." Anthony turned the light off and walked out of his shop. He held the door open for the lady. He knew that once day this lady would show up or he would go looking for her but tonight was not the night.

She walked out and watched as he locked up. "I know where she is but the senile part not so much. You look so much like your father and younger brother. Would you like to meet them?"

His jaw clenched and body tensed. The fact that this lady was not only telling him that she was his mother but he has a brother and father was pissing him off.

"The fuck do you want?" He yelled making her jump.

"I talked to your mother last week. I came-"

"No way you talked to her. I can't even get her to look at me." Anthony sucked his teeth and walked to his car. He thought the lady was off her rocks and wasn't about to waste anymore time when he could be with Dawn.

"That was before she had the surgery. Your mother is actually fine now Anthony. Look I know this is the wrong time but-"

"Ya think? Bitch it's midnight and you talking about you my damn mother and shit. That my mother is perfectly fine when just a month ago she was bed ridden. You out here talking about I look like my father and brother that I don't have. If you don't get your coo coo for cocoa puff ass out of my face." Anthony got in his car and slammed the door.

The lady stood there speechless. He honked his horn harshly which made her jump.

Rolling down his window he looked out. "Just so you know at this time of night shit get real. I advise for your crazy ass to go home." Anthony shook his head and rolled his window back up. He pulled out of his spot and started his journey home.

"Bitch gone come up in my shit and try and play me. Fuck she think she is." Anthony mumbled to himself and turned on the radio. He didn't believe any of it now and not even two months ago.

"You have a incoming call from...Autumn." The car stereo interrupted the radio and notified Anthony.

"Answer." He huffed and turned on the right block.

"Hey I don't mean to call this late but I really-"

"Did you know?" He rudely cut off Autumn and parked.

"Know what Anthony?"

"That mama not my real mother?" There was a pause on the other line and Anthony shook his head. In the last two months he spent time doing nothing but trying to get Dawn back, learning sign language, getting help, and working.

"I was calling to ask you the same shit. How this loony tune ass how gone come up to me and Omari while we are at the park earlier talking crazy. Bitch talking about we got a brother and-"

"I don't care. I got to go." He hung up and turned off the engine.

Anthony sat for ten minutes and composed himself. The last thing he wanted to do was go back in the apartment and give Dawn a reason to not trust his word.
