Mykal

I'm stupid as hell. Why? Because I just called my fucking female stupid just because I was pissed off. After my dad left limping I had to realise the reality of the situation at hand. I put Kiarah in a messed up situation, me over here being an asshole while beating the sit out of my dad and there was nothing she could really do about it.

It's just that....well....shit.... my dad was addicted to the drinks but he went to rehab and I swear he was clean until...my mom cheated. That's when everything went down, he started drinking again, trying to fight me all the time, and reminding me of my past. I think that's kind of why I'm a player. I break hearts like my mom broke mine when she decided to ruin it for the happy family we had. She wasn't thinking. She obviously didn't understand that what she did would not only break her marrige up, but it would brake the family up as well.

"Baby? What happened...why do you looked all pissed?" My mom asked me walking into the room like she just came back from fighting a bear in a cage. 

"You mom, that's what happened to me." Judging by the way that she looked she didn't understand a thing that was going on. She didn't understand that her one mistake, created more problems than she can imagine. "Mom, did you ever come to think by going around on my dad that it would ruin the family? You already knew he had a drinking problem so why bring that up on us again? Why bring us back through the hell that we had when we were little? You know that he used to....to touch me and be untolerable, but when he went to rehab that all changed. He changed for the better mom, and you had to go ruin it!"

"Son, I know you don't understand but this isn't your place." She said blankly using the mother tone which I guess was supposed to make me bown down to her and listen. But no, I was tired of prenting like my family is perfect when in truth, nothing is perfect, and nothing ever will be. But that also dosen't mean that you should stop trying to get it to good. Good, not perfect, but good.

"Mom, don't sit here and try to talk to me like I'm a child who dosen't know what I'm talking about. Look, I may not know the full story but that dose not mean that it was right what you did. Do you know what you caused? Kiarah was over when he came home drunk out of him mind, grabbing on her! And I had to fight him mom, I had to.... I care about Kiarah too much to see her being direspected by anyone. I called her stupid and I think she pissed off at me and now I need to go make things right because of you." I said pouring out the feeling I didn't know I had, but it felt good to get them out.

"First of all, I wasn't in your head telling you to call her out so don't pin it all on me. What you really need to do is talk to someone about your problems because holding it in isn't good. Maybe Kiarah is just that person that you need. Secondly, I understand that I caused some problems but believe me son I'm trying to fix it and the less you know the better just know that it's going to be allright. Now, get cho' ass up and go find Kiarah. " She said laughing but I knew she was serious. And I know that I need to go get what's  ming and never doing anything to her again.

When Kiarah opened the door my heart started beating the hell out of me. It was like I knew what I had to do, but I also knew that it wasn't going to be easy. I've never really apologized to anyone before so it's going to be hard. Not including the fact that Kiarah dosen't take bull shit, but I know she has a heart.

"Can I come in, there are some t]hings I want to say to you." I said hoping that she'd give me a chance.

"First, over everything, I have some things I need to say to you. Okay, last night I understand that you were hurt and I get that. It dosen't give you the right to call me stupid, but I get it. Now, when I got home, I really was too heated to understand that, and I am going to admit I started talking to my ex again." Hearing her say that makes my heart drop and I honestly feel like it's never going to come back up again. "Now before you get pissed- I realized my problem and I told him wassup. Your dad came over earlier, he told me about a lot and I just want to say that I'm here for you. He also told me he's going to rehab again so he can work out his problems the right way. I'm here for you Mykal, I know you're not used to it but I am..." With that I grabbed her and held her close. Now I understand what it feels like to have someone down for you. It's different, but it's that good different. 

Kiarah

_____

Me and Mykal have been sitting here for hours talking to each other about our problems. It was kind of nice to have somoene else to talk to and to know that you're trusted enough by a person that they can tell you their problems.

"Baby i'm home!" My mom shouted as she walked in the door. Shit.....I knew she was going to have to meet him at some point but I really am not ready. But hey, can't stop that shit now.

"Hey mom, I'd like you to meet my boyfriend Mykal, he lives next door." Looking up at my mom I couldn't help but be nearvous. She looked like she wasn't taking this good and that she was going to be like them people on t.v who forbid there daughter from ever seeing the prince again. 

"Well hello Mykal, shame that I didn't see you before she did or I would have tried to get you myself. Hah! Jk! Is that what the kids say these day? Jay Kayyyy? Just kidding? Well let me stop because I can see that I'm making my daughter uncomfortable and my husband woulnd't like my joking anyway. Anyways, nice to meet you young man, hopfully my daughter treats you right because you really are goregous." Is she serious? Is my mom actually approving of someone even though she dose realize that we are alone. She didn't even let my ex in the house unless she was right there watching. "Well I'm going to leave you children alone, and please, for the sake of my ears, keep it PG."

Mykal stared cracking up like something was funny. Wasn't shit funny! My mom went all out and on top of that embarrased me!

"The hell you laughing for?" I asked but I start sliping and joining his laughter.

"Yo mom cool." He said simling.

"Aren't all moms cool until you start to really get to know them?" I asked laughing.

"Yeah, but let's enjoy it for now...while we can." And sadly, I knew that he wasn't just talking about the mom thing or even his dad thing. He was talking about life and how drama likes to bring it's ugly head into things when they just start getting good.

Authors Note:

Lol! Some deep shit right there! Lol I hope it wasn't too deep but look....they're happy! That's good...right? Well at least let's enjoy it for now because nothing is perfect.
