She deadass tryna send me to my Aunt Monica who live all the way in Atlanta. Ain't nobody tryna go all the way down there. She talking bout I needa live with my Auntie cause she got a job in another country.

"Charmaine Solana Kuran, raise your voice at me one more time and see if I won't smack the shit outta you!" My mother, Yolanda yelled at me and I rolled my eyes

Deadass This Lady Is Blowing Me😒

"But momma I don't wanna leave my friends" It's in the middle of October and I'm pretty popular and I'm not Tryna build my way up again

I'm basically in the middle of poor and middle-class.

I mean my mom got money but doesn't have that she can buy me the stuff I want or anything. I'm already grateful for what I have which isn't much. But back to the situation.

"Charmaine pack your stuff, your leaving at 2AM" she said walking out the room

I stomped to my room and flopped my self on my Queen size bed. I ran my fingers through my silky and curly weave as I thought about what just Happend.

I mine as well just start packing.

Sunday|2:45AM|LAX Airport

"I'm doing this for us okay baby, I love you and call me when you land" my mom said kissing my cheek and I sighed

"I love you too and I will" I said hugging her then walked away

I put my shit on the thing, yada yada and got on the plane.

I put my phone on airplane mode and put my gold beats on and started blasting Bryson Tiller album T R A P S O U L, falling asleep.

4 Hours Later

I got off the plane carrying all 6 of my suitcases with my phone in between my head and neck.

"Ma I deadass forgot how she look, I ain't see her in a minute" I asked her looking around to see where my Aunt at

"Charmaine watch your damn mouth and she lightskin with a shortcut stop acting dumb little girl" she spoke and I mean mugged my phone

"Oh, I see her" I said smiling at my aunt as she walked over to me with a cheesing smile

She hugged me tight as we rocked back and forth.

"I missed you Auntie baby, You got so damn big I know you pulling all these nappy head ass little boys" she said grabbing my face still smiling making me laugh

"I miss you too auntie" I said smiling

My nose ring felt loose, so I twisted it making sure it's tight so it won't accidentally fall out.
