Black Diamond- Chapter 7
Shelby.
My mom and I were in the kitchen washing the dishes after dinner. We rarely ever did this together because she was always at work but they let her off earlier so we prepared and ate dinner together. Sometimes, times like this make me miss the when my mom and dad were together but I'd rather have them be cordial with each other because of me rather then hear them argue every night like back in Cali even though having my parents together meant the world to me, I couldn't be selfish and sacrifice their happiness.
I remember my mom sitting me down at the yogurt place when she told me her and daddy we're getting a divorce and at first I thought it was something I had done but she furthered explained that because two people love each other doesn't mean they should be together and her phase always stuck with me. My parents raised one helluva strong girl and I fully intended on sticking to the morals they instilled in and wait for sex until marriage, something Prince wasn't trying to do. We've been talking for a month now and each time were alone he rubs me the wrong way.
I'll be damned if I give something up something up so precious to a maybe situation because Prince is way older then me, by five years to be exact and my daddy warned me guy's older only want one thing from and I wasn't about to let Princes charm sway my decision. If he like my decision then he step to the left.
"Why you being so quiet baby?" My mom asked drying off a plate then stacked it in the cabinet. "Is something wrong?"
I sighed.
"Mommy have you ever felt pressured into doing something you think everyone else is doing?"
She chuckled.
"You mean having sex?"
"Yeah."
She took my hand and lead me over to the table where she sat in one of the chairs with me on her lap. No matter how old am I, I will always forever be a mommy's girl.
"Baby sex isn't everything people hype it up to be. If it isn't with someone you truly care about then it isn't special. Sex without love is just two people fucking." I gasped at her vulgar language making her chuckle. "Its the truth sweetie."
"But whatever if you practically the only virgin in your whole school?"
"There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Some girls use sex as a substitute for love. They lack the love some point in time in their lives so they're quick to open their legs for any nigga who claims to 'love' them because they like the way it sounds. Don't be confused Shelby because they'll talk a good game but when it comes down to it you have to make the decision if that is what you really want to do."
"Thank you mommy." I smiled hugging her neck.
She didn't have to asking I was having sex because the type of relationship we had I'd probably tell her the night it happens. She was my best friend but I knew where to draw the line.
"Alright, now finish watching the dishes." She slapped the towel against my bare legs. "Sandal is about to come on."
I chuckled.
When I finished the dishes I jogged upstairs to listen to some music and do my homework but just as expected Prince called my phone asking if he could see me. He rarely ever wants to be bothered with me during the day but as soon as the sun sets he blowing up my phone.
