Lashing out (12)

C A N D I C E :

"How you feel legend?"

He stayed quiet, I've been staying at his home for almost a week now since he's been released and he hasn't said one word.

Destiny told him she hated him.

I knew those words stung like hell.

Continuing to cook a light meal, I fixed his plate and put it in the microwave.

" you food is in the micro-"

" why the fuck you here candice?"

He finally spoke which is something I was waiting on but the words that escaped his lips was definitely not.

" what?"

" why you here? I don't want you here you basically just took the last reason for me to do the shit that I do away from me, I knew I shouldn't have started fuckin with you"

" wait.. what are you talking about? "

" YOU TURNED MY FUCKIN' SISTER AGAINST ME! "

" She's the only person that hasn't left me .. and you made her hate me"

"Legend I honestly don't think she hates you, she doesn't even know what that means"

" exactly so how the fuck she learn it? She never heard that word before "

" I hate him, I really do my dad ain't shit , I really hope him and my mom doesn't try to get back together"

" why you say that?"

" cus then jhasmine will go to school with us- well me..."

" oop shade?"

I giggled " it's true"

" I'm coming back soon, like in a few weeks "

" For Good! ?"

" yeah, I was gonna surprise you with that Halloween party coming up ,but whatever "

I thought back to the conversation with Denise and I talking on face time.

" what does hate mean?"

" well uhm, sometimes people use that word because they've been hurt by that person multiple times so they have a strong dislike for them. "

" oh" destiny commented before leaving.

Not realizing that I need to stop influencing and saying things around her .

" I'm waiting candice?" he spoke angrily.

" i- i was on the phone with denise and she was on speaker and I was venting to her about my dad and I said I hated him, then destiny asked what it mean and- "

" what the fuck is wrong with you? , so because your dad is trying to get back with your mom you hate him?"

"You know where the fuck my parents at!?" He continued.

" I'm so-"

" fuck up, just shut up bro. "

" you sorry, yeah you is sorry a sorry ass excuse as a friend. Bro get the fuck out fam"

" Legend i-"

"LEAVE ! I don't wanna hear shit from you bro leave!"

With that I put on my shoes and started to walk home.
