I woke up and put everything into my suitcase. I get dressed into a pair of leggings and my brown pair of boots. I put on my yellow shirt that has soccer ball on it. "Where are we going?" Mason asks. "We are going home." I say.
***2 days later***
School starts in a week.
Calling
Dad: Hello?
Me: Hey dad. Can you do me a favor?
Dad: Like?
Me: Sign me up for soccer and volleyball?
Dad: Sure I got a new job. I am gone during the day. I get off at 7:00 o'clock at night.
Me: Your telling me you won't be their for me?
Dad: Sweety I will be.
Me: What ever.
Dad: I'm so sorry I kept so much from you I can't cope with it.
Me: Hmmm.
Dad: Nammy will be home though.
Me: Okay, I'll just go home if I decide on spending time with Nola.
Dad: Where do you think you'll be going?
Me: Why worry? I'm far to old enough for you to worry about me.
Dad: Doesn't mean I don't care. Maranda Brisk! Knock it the hell off!!
Me: Or what are you going to leave me like my mom? It'd be fine because you have Nola. Look at that you have a new family. Bee, Mom and I all gone.
Dad: I love all of you!
Me: Really is that why you cheated kn my mom and Nola tried calling me her sister? And I got raped that first time you took me to Nola's? Ya you love me dad!
Dad: You didn't get raped you can't even remember anything! So don't put that blame that on me. Your brother fot into the accident!
Me: Someone killed him! I do remember after that last accident I was in helped me remember. You'd know that if you payed attention.
Dad: No you don't. I do pay attention!
Me: Is that why you aren't in Mason's life?
Dad: How do you know about Mason?
Me: Its kinda called meeting up with the family.
End of Call
"You okay?" Mason asks. "Of course." I say. "Where are we going now?" Mason asks. "I don't know. We are in the car. That's were Uncle Braxton lives?" Mason says in awe. "Ya, pretty cool huh?" I say amused. "I love this car. It reminds me of my dad's car." Mase says.
Calling
Logan: Hello?
Me: Hey Logan!
Logan: Long time since I heard from you. Missy your suppose to be calling.
Me: Usher will yuh do me a favor?
Logan: What is it?
Me: Meet me at the park with Miles?
Logan: When?
Me: 30 minutes. I have someone to meet the little guy.
Logan: Okay, well you are his Aunt.
Me: Ya, I always will be. I am your best friends girlfriend.
Logan: True. Well see you in a bit.
Me: Pizza?
Logan: Cool.
End of Call
"Can we also get ice cream?" Mason asks. "Ya!" I say like duh. "Okay." Mase says.
I order the pizza and buy ice cream and soda. I buy a small football and soccer ball and also a baeeball mit and a baseball bat. Like a lot of material for the sports. I spent $450.00.
We are now heading for the park.
"Logan!!!!" I scream running into his arms. "Hello to you too." Logan says hugging me back. "I have missed you soooo much!" I kiss his cheek. "Miles?!" Logan yells over his shoulder. "Coming!" Miles yells. "Mase!" I yell. "Hmm?" Mase hmms from behind me. "Come with me." I say.
I hand him the pizza and carried everything else. I set it on the picnic table. "I got ice cream and pizza, soda and snacks." I say. "Who is this?" Miles asks. "This is my nephew. His name is Mason. Mason this is Miles." I say introducing them. "Do you wanna play?" Miles asks. "Ya." He says running with Miles.
"So why did you want to see me?" Logan gets to the point. My smile fades. "Well I have a few things to ask you. Anyways, first off; are you coaching Miles for baseball or football?" I ask. "Ya? Both." He says casually. "Can you put him on the team?" I ask. "Ya, anything for you." Logan explains. "Since you were Braxton's best friend, can you be honest with me?" I ask. "Depends on what." Logan says. "Have Braxton and I dated since we were in elementary?" I ask. Logan chokes. "Ummmm babe you feeling okay? As much as I love you. I can't tell you that. I wish I could but I can't." He explains. "Cut the shit. I know we did. Why did know one tell me? I mean am I that dumb or stupid? Did Braxton like someone else or something?" I begin to frustrate myself. "Wowa wow. How did you find out. You weren't suppose to know." Logan says. "What?" I say looking at him trying to hold back my tears. "It's better for you not to remember." Logan say cutting me off. Logan's phone goes off and he looks at it and puts it back on his pocket. "Shouldn't you answer that?" I suggest. "I should but I'm not." He says. "Feisty. Who was it anyways? " I ask. "Braxton, who I reallydon't care what he has to say." He tells me. "I have an old picture book of when me and Braxton dating. We looked pretty young." I explain. Then his phone goes off again. "Sorry hold on. I'm kick his ass." Logan explains.
I look and see that the boys are playing tag and tossing a ball around.
I grab my side bag and take my camera out. I take a few pictures of the two kids. I take a picture of the fields.
I then put my camera away and take my journal out.
