Disgust upon my face as i watched my mom walk in to the lobby smile upon her lips hand in hand with Nathaniel. I glared at them both eyes red and puffy from the events that happened for the past week of which she wasnt there to witness. As they walked up she had the nerve to ask
"Wheres Lydia?" i looked at her in disbelief,
" Are you f- are you serious? you've been gone for a whole week and four days ago your youngest daughter died in my arms!! she asked for you but of course you was being selfish and was no where to be found. i was the only one there for her and now you wanna ask for her? Nah b You've never really been the best mom but you still cared a little bit which gave you the opportunity to keep the name. but now thats done with you and dad can stay togetha fo'eva. im moving back to New orleans with grandma." i said my New Orleans accent coming out thick.
as i was about to storm out my fa- Nathaniel grabbed my hand putting his black card in it.
" i dont want your money" i said as i handed him his black card
"take it its the least i can do. the code is your birthday." honestly i was shocked that he knew my birthday.
I took the car and with that i left. Knowing my mom was gonna need me at some point i pushed that to the back of my mind and drove to my final destination. New Orleans.
I've been driving for hours and I've eaten greasy burgers the whole way. im not wit that. Turning in to my grandmothers drive way. i grabbed the keys my phone and my purse and got out. knocking on the door i could already smell the delicious meal my grandmother was preparing. I smelled Gumbo, Macaroni and cheese, Sweet potatoes collard greens and Crawfish.
When i walked in i wondered why she was making so much but who cares theres food. i walked in and saw my nana and an older couple and this boy. he was tan with dark brown eyes curly dark brown hair defined jaw line. he glanced my way before i walked in the room to surprise her. when she saw me her eyes lit up wit happiness and something I'd never seen -- Love. i hugged her so tight as i never wanted to let go until she pulled me back asking for mother.
" uhh i drove here from California myself. mom got back with Nathaniel." i said as i knew she'd be furious. nana never liked him she always would say ' i feel as though hes not the one.' mama would never listen. she nodded and sat me a plate infront of mystery boy, he looked at me and slightly smiled. im kinda shy so i put my head down and waited for my food to be served. When the adults left for the kitchen Mystery boy came and sat next to me.
"wassup ma Tray is the name... and yours?" His manners were nice i guess never really was taught but all i knew was he was cute and his accent was killing me in the inside.
"uhhh.. purple... i mean my name is Bleu. " i said as i palmed my face in embarrassment he removed my hand from my face and studied my face. taking in every mole every scar everything that could possibly be there he was up close studying it. Surprisingly i didnt mind i knew i was pretty but im not conceited and i dont flaunt it. He was beautiful made by god himself time was taken. his skin looked soft as butter body wasnt super muscular but hes tight. he laughed
"Nervous much?" i nodded he was still looking at me before he said
" i like you we are going to get to know eachother. You'll most likely go to my school. I'll tell everybody you mine jus so nobody else can have you ma. im feelin ya hopefully you feel the same." he got up to sit in his seat but before he walked away he pecked my lips and winked.
It happened so fast it left me in a daze. So many thoughts swirled through my mind. But one thing i wasn't going to be was gullible. I wasn't gonna let this boy ruin me or break my heart.
