Growing up you can never know what can come your way. Whether it's drugs or alcohol, a girl that can make you feel good for only but a second, or someone who can give you a memory to last a lifetime.
My mom was at work and me my friend Rise was at my home and we were lying on my bed looking up at the ceiling just talking about random things. This session would go on for hours on end but always ended when my brother came home from work but I kept the thought to myself because it didn't feel like something worth talking about. Until I asked him why they don't talk with each other and he said,
"Mind ya damn business and go do your homework",
Although he would periodically have his outbursts at me; this time it was different, it came with a softer tone rather then a regular aggressive one. I think I should ask her about him.
*****
It was Tuesday afternoon after school was out when I met up with Rise, she lived 15 minutes from me and would always make it around 2:30pm. But today she came with someone new.
Her friend had a slightly darker complexion to Rise and she was very much older to me as an 8th grader. As I moved towards them her friend came up to me and gave me a hug with a kiss on the cheek, I didn't know how to react so I looked Rise dead in her eye then all of a sudden I felt my face get red. Rise's face turned to a slight smile but I knew I wasn't her true intention to throw me that smile.
"The eyes are the window to the soul"
She once told me I never knew what it meant. But today I found out.
