"Everything is going to be okay sweetie" my mom rubbed my back in an attempt to calm me down.
"My best friend could be dead and you're telling me that's it's going to be okay?" I snapped moving away from her. Aaleeyah had called me a few minutes ago crying her eyes out. Apparently Dontavian was stopped by the police and he was shot. I haven't heard anything back from her but the worse keep running through my mind.
"And then on top of that, I could be going to jail or Toni could and she just had a baby, Symone lost a leg. I've gone through so much in one day than most in their lifetime"
"Listen I talked to your hard-headed father, you're not serving anytime and this officer that shot your friend is going to get sued for everything he's got"
"His family is already loaded, monney isn't going to bring him back if he dies and, why would he help me?" I scoffed wiping my tears. My father only thought about himself and after what I heard while I was in that coma, I knew he didn't care for my mother that much either.
"Because he loves you believe it or not and although you two have your differences, you two are just alike. You can be selfish sometimes just like him"
"Mom can you please leave, I just want to be alone" I said turning away from her. Everything in my life was going so wrong and I feel responsible for most of it. I just hope Dontavian would be okay, I don't know what I would do if I lost him.
I awakened out of my sleep confused and turned over onto my back as I heard my room door open. I rolled my eyes when I saw Jesse walk in.
"How you holding up?" He asked with something behind his back.
"Why are you here?" I asked looking towards the window.
"Damn fuck you got an attitude for?" He snapped.
"I have an attitude because I can't stand you, why can't you just leave me alone."
"It didn't seem like you wanted me to leave you alone that day, I had your body shaking" he smirked flicking his tongue between his fingers.
"I told you to stop"
"Don't make it seem like I forced you or some shit" he said angrily walking towards me.
"Jesse just get out of my room and don't talk to me again."
"You're mad because your new nigga found out that you did some foul shit? How you sound yo? You try to make everything somebody else's fault"
"Don't try to throw all the blame on me.We're over and you just keep popping up"
"You could've switched partners, if you wanted to stay away from me that bad. Shit if I would've whipped it out you probably would've let me hit. I ain't do shit with Kortnee and you got so angry and made everything my fault. Now you did something and you shocked because he don't want to deal with you. I don't owe that nigga no loyalty and I liked you so yeah I came at you. I ain't think I would succeed because you made it seem like you would never cheat but I guess you just a good actor."
"Oh and I didn't know we had to be together for me to care about your well being" He shook and moved a bag from behind his back throwing it on my bed before leaving. I looked down and noticed it was a bunch of my favorite candy, get well cards and a teddy bear dressed in a pink jersey. I closed my eyes and let out a frustrated yell. I jumped in surprise when my mom came out of the bathroom of looking angry.
