DEMETRIA

" Just had to say some shit, huh Mumu, damn embarrass me on my first day ?" I say to her.

" Girl I helps you you home right ? Now go your ass to sleep" She says.

I roll my eyes, kick my shoes off & lay in bed. A couple minutes later I hear a knock.

" Metri ?" My mom calls out.

I get up & unlock the door.

" So how was it ?" She ask, sitting on my bed.

" It was okay" I say laying back down.

" Okay, that's good, made some friends? " She ask.

" I met some new folks, I just be around Kain & Ashley mostly though" She says.

" Okay that's good, & Kain went back to football practice right ?" She says.

" Yeah, he left after he dropped me off" I respond.

" Okay, I'm gone run & drop the twins to dance & football practice, you wanna ride ? " She ask.

" No I'm kind of tired right now" I respond.

" Okay " She says, then she exit.

My relationship was just going down hill after 5 years of marriage it's always something when I get home that Melanie fussing about, I get tired of that shit, to the point I don't say shit to her, just talk to my son.

" Jaycin, where you get food from? " she ask our son.

" Daddy bought it when he came in" he says.

" When did you get in ?" She ask looking confused.

" Bout 30 minutes ago" I respond.

" Cant let me know your in, or buy me some food, that's your damn problem, do you every consider me ? Jar-" she says be for I cut her off.

" Shut the hell up, your food in the damn microwave, why wouldn't I bring my wife some food. " I snap. I grab my keys & leave again.

DEMETRIA

As months passed I got pretty used to school. There were a few outburst here & there, but mainly I've kept Mumu under control if I could help it. This weekend was the first home game for our football season & Kain was gone be out there, usually we all go as a family to support him, but everyone seems to be busy & I on the other hand had nothing.

" I think you should go babygirl, you haven't been out on weekends in a long time, just stay with Ashley, I don't want you here alone, & here take your meds." She said handing me my pill.

" Your mom treat your big 17 y/o ass like a baby " Mumu says inturpting my convo with my mom.

" Shut the hell up " I say.

" Your grown, do what you want. Or be a baby & do exactly what your mom says." She says.

I processed her words.

" Here go your glass of water, my mom says " Interrupting my thought.

I sat the pill & water on the dresser beside my bed. My mom looked at me & furrows her eyebrows.

" I'll take it before I leave for the game" I ensure her.

" I'm running late for Jo recital, don't forget to take it " she says kissing me & then leave.

I pick up a couple of dresses out & go into the bathroom holding each dress to my body to see which one I was feeling.

"You look so different from everyone" Mumu says.
