Ebony's Journey, Macarevhic's Story

Ebony

This is the last month in school until summer and I'm ready for it to end. "This is so stupid! I hate this crap!" I say angrily closing my Chemistry book. "Chica, it's okay you're doing fine." "No I'm not!" I'm whining and pouting like a baby and I don't know why.

I get up and pack my book bag. Macarevhic grabs my arm and sit me back down in my seat. "Look Ebony you're gonna sit here and pay attention. Stop getting so mad. I know everything you've been through but come on these mood swings are getting ridiculous." Macarevhic says.

I twist my lips at him and roll my eyes. "Well since you don't like my mood swings how about you just swerve!'' I yell at him, getting stares from people in the library. The librarian comes over and tells us to calm it down.

"Ebony you're just looking for a fight.'' "No I'm not. If you're so tired of me you can just go away. I don't need you. I swear sometimes you can be a real idiot." I say. I don't mean not a single word and I'm starting to feel bad. Macarevhic is quiet for a long moment. I can tell he's mad.

"You know what Ebony, I'm not doing this with you today. I'm tired, so if you want to be mad you can be mad....... alone. I'm leaving.'' He gives me a kiss on the forehead and he walks his way towards the exit.

I can't let him leave like this. I run after him. Once we're outside I can see he's getting into his car. "Macarevhic!" I yell his name. He doesn't acknowledge me and he drives off. I wipe a stray tear from my eye. I sit on the library steps and stare out into space.

I can tell he's tired and I'm tired too. I can't help it. I am so mad sometimes and I can be so mean to him. I don't know why. Why can't I get through this? Then Arod pop into my head. That makes me angrier. I just want to bust him his face, ugh! A maroon Altima pulls up in front of the library. The driver's window slides down. It's Arod.

"Eb, you're here all by yourself?" he asks. I flip him the birdie. He chuckles. "Eb, I don't need no problems." He gets out of the car and walk toward me. I stand up ready to fight if I need to. I don't trust his crazy behind. He holds up both of his hands as if he's' surrendering.

"I'm not here to fight you, I swear." I keep my eyes on him, and I move a little to the side. "Look Eb, this little Hispanic dude you're dating is not for you. You deserve the best, and I can buy your old apartment back.

I know how much it meant to you. It was the only way you could see your parents. I've changed Eb, and I want to be with you again. We're good together." "Look I don't want to be with you. Not after all the stuff you done put me through. You are stupid! I swear what you can't take a hint?" I spit on the ground. "That is what you are to me and, that's what I think of you. Arod if you come near me again I will call the police on you. That little Mexican dude is my man and he's more man than you will ever be. Oh and he's African American and Mexican. How dare you ask to be back together with me!" I walk off like a boss. He didn't have nothing to say.
