After Bre and i met up at Jas' house, we went in to check on her momma. Needless to say she wasnt doing to good.
"Korlin you still playing baseyball?" Jasmine momma said. I smiled .
" No ma'am. After jasmine, i just lost the passion for it." I say. In all honestly i love basketball, its just I haven't felt the same since Jas died.
"Do me a favor , get back on it baby. Okay? Do that for me. And i know you done said fuck school. Graduate for me okay?"
"Yes ma'am."
A tall dark toned man came from the back. Im guessing its Jasmines momma boy friend.
"Nisha who these kids?" He said. He had a deep , smooth voice. She stood up. Her thick short frame walked to him. Jasmine had a beautiful mother. She was on the light side. She was short and had bone straight hair. Jasmine apparently got her height from her father because she was tall.
"Baby this is Korlin , Jasmines bestfriend. And thats Bre Korlin friend. They came to check on me," she looked up at him then back at me ," Korlin ,Bre this is Darnell, Jasmines daddy."
I looked back at him. He was tall and he sort of looked like jasmine. Well jasmine sort of looked like him.
"Nice to meet you sir." Bre and I say at the same time.
He mean mugged for a moment then asked," How old is yall?"
Bre looked at me then answered," Sixteen sir."
I nodded and said," Im sixteen too sir."
He nodded and walked out.
"Excuse him yall. He ont' mean no harm. He just dont know how to express himself anymore. What brought yall by?" She asked sitting back on the couch smoking her weed.
"We just came to check on you. And to let you know that we here for you." I stated.
"Yall have a sit down. Korlin how them babies doing? Bre how you been?Still babysittin'?" She asked.
"Yes ma'am. And i been okay. How you been holding up?" Bre said as she sat down on the short love seat.
I sat beside Bre." The babies are fine. This is Elizabeth i have with me. "
She nodded. She blew out her smoke like it was a breath of relief. She looked sympathetic for a moment then said," Im sorry about what happened to Jeremy. Seems like somebody tried to kill him. And cant nobody find his supposed to be girlfriend. Looks to me like she the killer."
I shook my head," She came to me after it happend crying saying she had no where else to go. She stays in our garage now."
If i was a dirty bitch , id blaim it on her but i didnt. I aint like that. Even though i dont like her i still aint gone do no dirty shit like that.
We talked for about an hour , until she got high and left. Im not judging her. I know she has to find a way to cope.
And yea i didnt like her smoking around Beth but this was her house. We left and went to go get something to eat.

Later that day i got back home to a sleeping house. Everyone was asleep. It must have been around 5:45. I guess it was nap time.
I put Elizabeth in the crib because she was sleep.
I laid in my bed and thought about what Ms. Nisha said. About going back to school and playing basketball.
I told her i would so i am. Tommorrow im going back to school.
**
Its the next day. I talked to my momma about going back to school and she said that it would be good. You know Rashella had some dumb shit to say.
