ADDICTED

Addicted- Act Right

I was chilling on the toilet seat when I  heard the bedroom door shut. I dialed Midnight  waitin for her to answer. When she did answer she did it harshly, partially frightening me.

"What the fuck you want!?"

"Why the fuck you yelling at me?"

"Your dumb excuse of a woman that's why"

"Chill baby it aint even that serious" she was sighing and groaning

"My scalp is hurting me like hell, my lip is bleeding and I twisted my ankle. What you mean it's not that serious?"

She remained quiet over the line for a few seconds rattling through something

"Check her because Blu told me she going to jump me and I ain't with that shit

I shook my head "Ain't nobody gonna jump you so calm down. I'm coming back over"

"Blu's over here and my friend Tenion" she sighed "Can one yall get me ice so I can put on my ankle?"

"So... I'm going over there for you, just to console you"

"How you gonna get out when wolf monkeys sitting in your crib? Don't do nothing slick when you get here"

"Why don't you make them leave? They have homes right?" she laughed which made me smile "What about it?"

"Okay, but not right now, come in about an hour or so"

"Alright see you then, hopefully we can start off where we stopped" I rubbed my hair

"Uh no what you gonna do? Pull my scalp off my head and tear off my lips? I can't even walk straight"

I laughed "I'm just playing, Bye" she hung up

I took a shower just thinking about the conversation my dad and I  had, my mom talked to me also, but not about my dilemma. She just told me when choosing the right one, the right one isn't always sure, but is the most to break. Which I still don't understand, but hopefully I find out one day.

I got out the shower and wrapped the baby blue towel around my waist as I walked out to the bedroom. I plugged my phone in the charger and looked for something to wear.

"Qua' sean!"

"Dove!" I screamed out playfully

She opened the door and walked towards me.

"Your mom's on the phone" she handed it over to me with an attitude

I took the phone from her "Momma I got a cellphone, why you callin off the house phone?"

"Why yall got a house phone if yall ain't using it? Think about it, but not now your sister's home from London."

My older sister Rochelle went out to explore the world and was accepted to  college in London. I haven't seen her since my last year in virtual high school which was 5 years ago.

"You got her number? Actually let me talk to her" Dove was giving me some more attitude

"Quay?"

"Rocky! How was London?"

We spoke and spoke about our lives and how everything's been going. I loved the free spirit of my sister. She always was so jolly even in the darkest times. Call her Santa.

I hung up and headed downstairs to put it back in place.

"Dove what do you want? Why you following me?"

"Who were you talking to? Getting all happy and shit. A girl you met during online classes?"

"Man...you full of shit, you fucking heard the whole conversation."
