Chapter.:12:.

Y'all ever just look at these girls that be hoeing around and they taking trips and shit everywhere and yo ass stuck in the house looking at it on social media....Finna start hoeing cause I wanna go to Paris. I want a LOUIE BAG.! I WANT SOME RED BOTTOMS.!! I want an all paid trip for me and my two friends to the islands....this some bullshit. This what I get for doing holy things. If I just did one little thing I could have had the furs, the cars, the houses the trips...time to reevaluate my life.

Taye's P.O.V.

I was like a dear in headlights bruh. I was so not ready for that one. Both of them starred at me. Kevin's glare was so scary I had a chill running down my spine. While Aug looked confused and upset a bit.

Me:U-Uh...I...shit.

Aug:Baybeh what pills.?

Kevin:Tell him Artiva or Imma tell him.

Me:Can we not do this right now.

Kevin:No tell him.! Now.!

Aug:Baybeh just tell me.

He stood up and walked over to me. He grabbed my chin and made me look at him. He had this worried look in his eyes and I didn't like it. I didn't want him worrying about me.

Me: Ever since Katrina, I've been on Depression and Anxiety pills. I stopped taking them a while ago.

Aug:What's a while ago baby.?

Me:When we started hanging out. I didn't need them anymore. I felt like I had somebody to be there with me. I wasn't scared anymore.  I was happy.

Kevin:The rest of it Artiva. Tell him all of it.!

Aug:Baybeh tell me.

Me: My nightmares aren't just regular nightmares. They effect me deeper then that. I would wake up with marks and shit from my nightmares.

Kevin: Why haven't you see a doctor Taye.?

Me:Kevin stop. Im fine, I really am.

Kevin: Bullshit Taye. I've watched you cry yourself to sleep multiple times after Derrick died cause your anxiety got the best of you. You lost your mom in the storm. And that sent you into depression only to turn around and lose Elijah. I'd watch you at Derricks house. You use to cling to him when you were trying to sleep. You'd wake up screaming or in a cold sweat.

Me:STOP IT KEVIN.!

Aug:Where ya pills at.?

I didn't say anything, I didn't even look at him.

Aug:Where the fuck they at Taye.?

Me:In my room.

Aug walked passed me and went towards my room.  I followed behind him. He was in my drawers by the time I made it there.

Aug:Where they at.?

Me:Auggie.

Aug:WHERE THE FUCK THEY AT TAYE.?

I jumped at his sudden change of voice. I went to my bed and got on the floor. I reached under my bed and pulled out a shoe box. I put the both on the bed and took the top off. Before I could grab anything Aug pushed me away.

Aug:Stand ya ass over there.

His glare was ice cold. I looked down and tried to fight the burning in the back of my eyes. He turned back to the box and started going through it. My medicine was in there, a couple of letters, pictures, and a necklace. Aug picked up my medicine and put them on the bed. All 3 bottles. Each one full. He went through the box again.
