Being that I didn't want to physically hurt my mom, I let her hit me. I just did my best to block her hits.

" You stupid bitch ! " She yelled as she repeatedly punch me " I should've fucking known ! "

She was angry because she caught her boyfriend trying to have sex with me. What was I suppose to do with a gun to my head ? This wasn't the first time it happened but I didn't care about her hitting me, the only thing I cared about was the fact that she didn't believe me. Travis, her boyfriend grabbed my mom holding her back. I took this as the time to gather my shit because I refuse to stay here.

" Get your shit and get the fuck out Lauren " She said " Since you wanna be a hoe, you can go live in the streets "

I went to my closest, getting my suitcases. My mom was standing in the doorway.

" I should've aborted yo stupid ass " She said

" I'd advise you to get the fuck away from me because now you're testing me " I told her

She should've just let me get my shit but she wanna run her fucking mouth. It's crazy because I didn't see her putting her hands on Travis. He's the one that should be getting kicked out. But no, it's me, her 19 year old daughter. My mom and I relationship wasn't always perfect. There were times where I actually fucked her up and vice versa but today was different. She believed a nigga over her daughter. That's a whole other level of betrayal in my eyes.

I arrived at the hotel I'll be staying at until I can find an apartment. We had just moved from Atlanta to New York being that my mom job had changed locations. I'm happy glad my dad started my savings account when I turned 1 because other wise I would have no money. My phone started ringing, and I looked at it to see it was Erykah my best friend that still lived in Atlanta

Me: Hello
Erykah: What happen ?
Me: My mom kicked me out. She finally caught Travis but didn't believe me when I tried to tell her what happened. She started hitting me and-

I stopped talking because I started crying. This shit is so fucked up.

Erykah: Lauren stop crying. You making me wanna get on a plane right now
Me: It's just fucked up. That's that shit I don't like. Now I have to stay at a hotel until I find an apartment. Then to top it off, I don't know anyone up here.
Erykah: Listen you gonna be good. It looks like imma be moving up there with you
Me: No I can't ask you to do that.
Erykah: But I'm going to. Start looking for apartments meanwhile imma start packing
Me: You're the best bestfriend ever
Erykah: I know. Anything for you.
Me: Okay imma call you later
Erykah: Okay Love you
Me: Love you too
