Money, Pain, And Redemption

Chapter 4

 When I got home there was no one there but my drunk foster mom. "Unique can you sit down so I can talk to you," she said sounding caringly. "Yeah, you okay." I was starting to think maybe she wasn't drunk by the way she was talking or it had to be something wrong with her. "I'm fine I just wanted you to know I really do love you as you was my own child and that I will always be here for you I know sometimes you feel left out but I promise for now on things are going to be better." I was shocked and I couldn't find the right words to say I love you too or thank you sometimes I wondered what it would fill like for my mother to say it but that was my mother even though she's close to one I still couldn't find the words. I tried to hold back the tears I felt but they just came out like a waterfall. "What's wrong Unique is there something on your mind if there is talk to me it's okay to trust me I know you've been through alot but I promise I'll always have a shoulder to lean on and for now on you can start calling me your mom." We talked on and on she even told me she was thinking about adopting me. I got in the shower and went to my room thinking about how much everything changed in one day I've never been so happy.

  I woke up to the smell of bacon so I went into the living room to see G and Trey sitting there and I decided to go to the kitchen to get a bottle water and see my foster mom cooking. "Good morning sweetie you hungry I'm cooking bacon, blueberry pancakes, and eggs," she says. "Yeah but I'm about to just put some clothes on or I can help you if you would like me to." "No, I got everything go head put some clothes on," she replies. I walked back to my room and hear footsteps behind me I turn around to see G. "You can't speak babygirl where my hug at," says G jokingly. I give him a slight hug and walk away but he pulls me back close to him "you still gone chill with me right babygirl." I nod my head yes and he let me go. I look for clothes to put on and remember the clothes G bought me so I put on my black outfit, my blue MK purse, and find my black forces. I go sit in the living room and text Heaven. I can feel someone looking at me so I look up and see G and Trey staring at me. "What?" I say annoyed. They smile and look away and start there conversation. "Unique!" yells my foster mom. I get up to go to the kitchen but give a gaze at G making eye contact then walk into the kitchen. "Can you take this to Trey and G? I'll have your plate ready when you get back and see what they want water or orange juice." I take the plates to them handing Trey his plate first and G his last "thanks babygirl but what I supposed to eat with my hand or you gone feed it to me," G says. I roll my eyes and ask if they wanted orange juice or water they both say orange juice so I pour four glasses of orange juice take them some to eat with and their orange juice and sit at the table with my food. "You don't want to sit in there where G is?" my foster mom asks. I look up and ask her how she knows about us and she says" don't worry sweetie it's okay just be careful and don't fall for the lies." She grabs her plate and goes into the living room with the rest so I began to eat then G comes sit beside me. "You don't want to eat in front of me or you just want to be antisocial," he say. "Oh no, I just wanted to sit in here along." "Why you always so distance or frowning Unique?" he asks. "I just think sometimes I'm better off that way why smile when you have nothing to smile about," I say reluctantly. "You're beautiful in the face and body if you saw what I see you'll smile everyday." He finished eating and told me to come to the car when I was done. The words my foster mom said repeated in my head "don't fall for the lies" she said. I finished the last of my orange juice and went to the car where G was waiting for me. The whole drive was quite so I decided to say something so it wouldn't be so awkward. "How far is your house from here," I asked. "It's not far but I want to take you somewhere before we go to my house." 

  G stopped and we was at a jewlery store he told me to get whatever I want but I thought he was spoiling me too much he had just bought me clothes yesterday. He told me don't worry about it because I was worth it. He got me a diamond necklace with my initial, two pairs of diamond studs, and a gold watch. I felt like I was dreaming. "Why you being so nice to me?" I asked. "You special to me so I want to treat you like the special person you are." Afterwards we drove to his house.
