Can't Escape

Just Gonna be a Memory

Jordyn's POV

I zipped my last suitcase and and started rolling it into the hallway.

Before I could close the door, I glanced at my room. I had some good memories here...and some traumatizing ones as well

My step mom yelled "Jordyn c'mon, I ain't got all day!"

I sucked my teeth and started closing the door

I peeked through the crack, just to peek at my room one more time, cause I knew this would be the last time I see it.

I heard someone stomping up the stairs and I quickly closed the door

I turned around to see my step mother, Monica staring at me with her face scrunched up and her hands on her hips.

" little girl what the hell did I tell you", she told me while I rolled my eyes.

I thought to myself, Bitch you ain't my momma

I suddenly felt a sharp sting to my face

I guess I didn't think it to myself, cause she look pissed.

" Don't talk me like that, you little hoe, I don't wanna be your momma anyway, I don't blame your momma for dying, I wouldn't want to have a hoe for a daughter either", she told me smiling knowing she struck a core.

I looked at my necklace. The one momma gave me. A blue crystal heart with my name written on it in scripted mettalic letters

I knew what she said wasn't true so I didn't let it bother me when she said bullshit like that.

See, my mother died 7 years ago when I was 9 years old. We don't talk about her anymore because of what she did to us, but we still loved her.

" Don't know why your damn daddy left you and your retarded ass brother with me" she said, even though nobody was fucking listening to her annoying ass.

When she finally stopped talking I grabbed my suitcase, walked downstairs, and went to the car.

I popped the trunk, put my stuff in, and closed it.

" Call your brother" Monica said as she walked outside, and got into the car

I looked around for my younger brother, just to find him trying to get a girl's number

" Isaiah!" I screamed

He looked back at me and quickly said bye to the girl and ran over to me

" You ain't gonna call her are you?" I asked him

He replied, " Hell naw, she was cute but she wasn't fine".

I laughed at how my 15 year old brother was the neighborhood fuckboy

"C'mon let's get into the car" he said

We walked in and buckled our seatbelts as we started moving

From Detroit to New Jersey was probably gonna be about 10 hours so I plugged in my headphones and started jamming to some throwback songs.

10 hours later

I was shook back and forth until I realized it was just Isaiah trying to wake me up.

"Damn nigga you about to give me whiplash", I complained

"We here, get the fuck up" he replied

"You gonna stop talking to me like that before I knock yo ass out" I said

I opened the car door, got out, and grabbed my suitcase from the trunk

I looked at out new house and it was an average American house, like you see in the movies.

Isaiah came up beside me and said "A house nice like that, there's gotta be something wrong with it, bet you we got fucking roaches".

I walked into the house to see it was already filled with furniture and a flat screen right there on the wall

I walked up the stairs carrying my suitcases and walked into the room that said Jordyn

I opened the door and almost did a fucking backflip when I saw my dad standing there in the middle of my room with a gift wrapped box

"Daddy!"

I dropped my bags and ran over to hug him

I haven't seen him for like 4 months because he was on a business trip in Belize

(Shout out to my bitch Shayla )

"When did you get back?"

"A couple of weeks ago, I had to come and add the furniture and everything" he replied.

My eyes drifted to the box

"What's that?", I asked mad excited because I knew it was for me

"Open it girl, and you'll see" he replied

I grabbed the box and started ripping off the wrapping paper, that shit was flying everywhere.

I looked at my gift and it was an iPhone 6

I almost made my dad go deaf cause I started screaming in his ear

"Thank you, father!" I said

It was so lit, that I just had to Milly rock

I was killing that shit, but then I turned around to see Isaiah standing at the doorway, with a smile on his face

I ran over to him and put my around his shoulder

"Look at what I got!" I said to him

He just smiled and I started to notice he didn't get a gift and I was about to say something before my dad interrupted

" Hello Isaiah" he said in a stern voice

The smile on Isaiah's face vanished and he replied " Hey dad" and cleared his throat, " I'm gonna start unpacking" and he walked away.

I didn't know what the fuck just happened but I was gonna talk to him later and see if there was something I missed

Dad stayed for a while but said he had some business to take care of, even though it was 8:56 pm

Monica told us to go to sleep after Dad left, but we didn't even have dinner yet.

"How the fuck we supposed to go sleep starving Monica?" I said

" That's what you need to be doing with your fat ass, now go the fuck to sleep, before I do something I won't regret", she said

I sucked my teeth and walked to my room, while Isaiah did the same

I got in my bed and set up my phone.
I put in the time I wanted to wake up and tied my hair up in a messy bun and went to sleep

We got school tomorrow and I know these people don't know my story, so I can have a fresh new start.
