My mother open the door and looked like she seen a ghost.
"Hey son. How you. ."
"Don't hey son how you doin me. What you gone do to my sister?"
She stood there silent.
"Why you threatening my sister ma?!"
Her face grew angry.
"Im still your mother Jos..."
"Fuck that. . Before you even killed dad you was never there. Basketball, football games id look in the stands and see nobody but dad. If I was in trouble in school who came ma? Who? Ian have nobody when you got locked up ! After our last hug they allowed us I was on my own ! Pam kept me for a week and gave me up cause I was too bad. She couldn't handle me. Everybody turned they back on me ! Fighting everyday in foster homes trying to get and keep respect ! When Jas signed them papers to be my guardian she told me she got me. From that day she hasn't turned her damn back on me ! She discipline me, she guide me, she can calm me when no-one else can and you gone sit here and disrespect her?! She got me ! She love me! And ill give my life for my sister!"
My mom stood there shocked. I don't think I've ever yelled at her that much.
But what she expect. Im a man now and cause of my dad and my sister. She try to seem like this good mother but she wasn't. My dad might as well been a single parent.
"Maurice don't speak to me in that tone. Im still your mother."
"Bullshit.. You my mama... There's a diffetence."
I feel relieved but I still feel like I can tear the city up. I feel like there's a monster trying to break out of me, but my pride wont let him escape.
"And you know what else mama. Dad use to say when you looking for a woman you look for someone like your mother..... Well Diamond... She ain't shit like you. You can see how much she love our daughter by the way she looks at her. Im gone marry her one day. And its a damn shame you may not be there. You can be mad at yourself. Don't ever disrespect or threaten my sister."
I turned around to walk out but saw my coworkers staring and being nosey.
"The fuck y'all looking at? Get back to work."
I can feel my heart beating out my chest. If only someone really knew whats going on in my head.
How does a kid in my situation
heal?
