BEING JOMAE

BEING JOMAE-Home Sweet Home

"You sure this yo house baby?", Killion asked with the same facial expression as me.

"Yeah I haven't been gone that long", I stepped inside and went to the kitchen where I was smelling the aroma of should food. Yeah it smelled delicious in this house like it was from a happy family.

"Mom?"

"Jomae. Oh my goodness baby where did you go I've been scared for my life. I've been sending people out looking for you but nobody has found you", she came hugging me extremely tight. I mouthed to Killion I'm scared because she normally yelling and our house is dirty and smells like drugs and air freshener.

"I found dad and I started living with him. Then we moved for safety"

"Well I'm glad you're back. Are you staying here or you going back to your dad?"

"I just came here to visit and talk to you but I didn't think you would be doing so well...I thought you were on drugs"

"Baby no I've never done drugs that was all an act. Roger is a felon and has so many warrants out for him and we needed to put him behind bars for life but all the information we had wasn't enough to put together so when we finally had everything done we put him behind bars. We just went to court and now I am celebrating. But who is this?", she asked looking at Killion.

"Oh mom this is my b--my friend Killion", I said remembering we weren't together anymore.

"Hello baby you can call me Ms. Ariel", she wiped her hands and held her hand out for him to shake.

"Hello how you doing?"

"I'm doing wonderful thanks for asking"

"Wait mom now I'm confused about everything. So you pretended to do crack to put Roger in jail?"

"Yes"

"Okay but what about my dad?"

"Oh he knew that's why he left. It wasn't safe for him to be a drug Lord and you and your sister be with us while I was undercover. I really do love your dad but to play it off I had to act like I didn't. Man I feel good to be myself again you just don't know. I don't have to pretend to be somebody I'm not or live the life I've never wanted to live but I did just hit the jackpot baby"

"So is Shaunie really not your daughter?"

"Not she's not really my daughter your dad was with somebody before me and he got her pregnant but she really was a drug addict. We still talk and keep in contact. But she had to stay away from us while I was in the case and it was definitely worth it because now we are so rich and I'm working on moving to a bigger house out on the West coast"

"Really?! That's closer to you babe but I'm not going to be here"

"I know but when you come down here you'll have somewhere to be and I am so proud of you. I couldn't be there as the real mom I wanted to be and you turned I to such a young lady", she put my hair behind my ear. "And you've met a nice young man on the way"

"Wow this is crazy. I've been wanting to come see you and I was expecting to see you so sick and bad and drugged out. I can't even believe it I feel so much better now"

"Good I'm really happy for that"

"Oh babe where is my baby?"

"Right here. You talking to him", I smacked my lips and rolled my eyes smiling.
