A Taste Of The Real World

Aspen|😋

"Wake yall ugly asses up! " my momma yelled, I knew she was mad about the house but I'm wondering why she came back so early.

I yawned and threw the covers off me, walked in my bathroom and brushed my teeth and washed my face. After that I went and got my phone off the charger checking my social media and messages.

I walked down the steps and into the kitchen to see Jayda already down here and my mom looking stressed as usual.

I looked around the house to see it already clean so I guess Jayda cleaned up early before she came.

"Who was here?"my mom asked looking between the two of us."Just a couple of friends nothing major." Jayda shrugged.

"Was anyone in my room?" Jayda looked hesitant then answered "no everyone stayed downstairs".

"Don't lie to me!"Mom yelled, you could see the veins on her forehead about to pop."She's not lien mom there was no one upstairs "I answered. She sighed and took a seat she looked like so stressed, shaking her leg pretty fast but I was scared to ask her if she was okay. She took a deep breath and finally spoke "Girls sit down I need to talk with yall". I was nervous for what she was going to say she really doesn't tell us anything so i definitely knew she was hiding something.

"Your dad and I own a drug business I know it sounds crazy but it's true we started when we first met, when we were young and hungry for money. Your dad thought it was a good idea that we should also get stable jobs on the side so while i was pregnant i went to school to get my degree to be a traveling nurse. He wanted us to be set for life, he just wanted all of us to happy". She smiled as she spoke with tears coming out her eyes.

Jayda had the same shocked expression as me I didn't know what to do or say ,how could they keep this from us? After all these years we have been living off drug money and we didn't know I don't know what to believe now anything could be a lie.

"What? How could you keep this from us?" I yelled at her. I was so mad, "anything could have happened to us because of yall stupid decisions to be in the drug world." Jayda kept quiet i guess she was thinking and taking all of this in like i am i just had to say something instead.

" I know that ,that's why we was always careful and kept security around and cameras around the house even people watching you guys to make sure you and your sister are okay. I just want to start letting you guys know everything now because i'm in this by myself now because your father is gone so i need you guys help a lot now." She told us while looking at us with a very serious face.

I knew this was dangerous but my mom's life is more important so i'm going to help i hope Jayda is going to be on board. " I'm going to help you mom but you have to tell us what's goi-", "Us? Theres no us theres a you cause im not risking my life and ending up like dad!" Jayda interrupted before she ran up the steps I couldn't blame her who wouldn't be mad. Mom looked shocked and sad at Jayda's outburst, " I'll get her to cool down mom don't worry we have your back Jayda is just a little shaken up right now." I assured her, she just held her head down and at that moment i realized I should go check on Jayda.

Jayda|❤

I sat on my walk in closet floor crying, my closet has always been my safe place since i was little, I liked the soft carpet I even kept blankets, pillows, food, and drinks in here as well i could live in here if i wanted to.

I sat there crying holding a picture of my dad i really missed him and i didn't wanna lose my mom but i didn't wanna lose my own life as well or my sister's. I couldn't believe that they kept this from us, from me, i want to help but i'm scared, who wouldn't be? I love my mom more than anything though and if it wasn't for her i wouldn't be here I feel like i at least owe her something.

I heard somebody coming and looked up to see my sister Aspen, I can't lose her she is my other half even though we may not act like it or look alike we are twins and no one could break us apart. She sat down next to me looking in my eyes searching for some type of emotion. Her face showed everything she was sad, scared, confused, and mad same way i was feeling but i didn't show it. " Jayda i know this crazy really crazy but we can't lose dad either i don't know what i would do then we have to help her she is broken and so are we from dad but if somebody has something of dad then i'll rather die than let them get away with what they did and ruin our family so we have to help" she finally spoke looking at the picture i held in my hand a picture of all of us, my mom , my sister, me, and lastly my father.

" I know" was all i said i couldn't say much but she was right, we can't let somebody ruin our family because they have something of my dad's. We both turned to look at the door to see my mother, she looked at us we looked at her all of sudden we just hugged each other and showed each other love. We stayed like that for about 5 minutes then released, Aspen and I looked at each other and took deep breaths then Aspen spoke " Mom we both decided to help you but you have to tell us everything and teach us everything we can't lose you" emphasising on the word "we" I shook my head yes agreeing with her.

My mother smiled and nodded her head quickly "yes i will thank you girls so much i swear this means so much to me i love yall man". She began to tell us everything from the beginning to now it was so much to learn it was so much that happened it was crazy but all i did was listen. She finally told us that she look at the tapes from the cameras and told us that a boy was up there that took one of the most valuable thing to my family and we had to get it back but we needed some practice on how to defend ourselves before anything.

I felt the trouble coming and i think my sister did too......
