{Same day}

~Amiyah

Hey i'm Amiyah and i'm an eighteen year old senior in high school. I have three younger siblings, two of them being twins, Maliyah and Makiyah, and my little brother Lj. We all go to the same school which is pretty cool because I get to keep an eye on them. 

But yeah, right now me and a couple of my friends are in the lunch line so we can get some food.

Destiny: "So what's going on with you and Christian?" She asked with a smirk on her face

Me: "We're fine. Why?" I asked kind of confused as to why she wanted to know.

Christian is my boyfriend, we've only been dating for about a month now, and it has been going pretty well. And if you're wondering no my parents don't know about it. But ONLY because I don't want to bring him around and then he does some stupid shit and my parents find out about it.

Plus my mom and auntie Ty are hella opinionated so I just want to take my time before I bring him around. Oh, and i'm kind of scared to tell my dad.

Chanelle: "Because you was all on Snapchat complaining about how you're annoyed, and all you want is loyalty" She said mocking me

Me: "Oh yeah, because I found out he was in this one bitch Dm's that go to UCLA"

Destiny: "Oh how you find that out?"

Me: "She Dm'd me to tell me. She had screenshots and everything"

Chanelle: "So are y'all still together or?"

Me: "Yeah i'm just not talking to him right now"

Just as I said that he walked up to me.

Christian: "Can I talk to you?"

Me: "No. Go talk to your new girl friend" I spoke without giving him eye contact

Christian: "Come on man. Not in front of your friends" He said looking down at me

I huffed and rolled my eyes.

Me: "Can y'all save my spot?"

They both nodded their head and we walked out the line.

Me: "Make it quick"

Christian: "Look I apologize for talking to home girl. I just didn't think it was that big of a deal-"

Me: "Exactly, you weren't thinking. Chris we're in a relationship; you don't just hop in a another bitches Dm's like it's okay." I explained "How would you feel if I hopped in the next nigga Dm's and he hit you up talking about 'leave my girl alone'?"

Christian: "Alright I see where you coming from"

Me: "Alright then"

Christian: "You forgive me?" He asked wrapping his arms around my waist

Me: "I can forgive you, but I damn sure wont forget. Let some shit like this happen again and i'm done"

Christian: "Alright I got you. Give me a kiss" He said puckering his lips

Me: "Who the fuck do I look like to you? Back the fuck up." I demanded pushing him away from me

Christian: "Shit like that is why I hit baby up, yo' attitude got me fucked up Amiyah. When you calm down hit me up" He said walking away

I casually rolled my eyes and walked back to the line with my friends. This nigga pisses me off so much it's crazy, I don't know why i'm with him anyway.

*Later on that day*

~Tania

Me: "Baby what do you want for dinner?" I yell from the kitchen while going through the fridge

Langston: "Damn you don't have to yell, i'm right here" He said walking in the kitchen

Me: *laughing* "I'm sorry I didn't know you were right there. What do you wanna eat for dinner?"

Langston: "Did you forget it's Friday?" He asked with a smile on his face

Me: "Oh! It's go for what you know night. Thank you baby, because I didn't feel like cooking" I said lightly smacking his shoulder

As I was walking out the kitchen all the kids walked in. Amiyah walked in looking mad and stomping up the stairs, while everybody else walked in with smiles and straight to the kitchen.

Me: "Well hello to y'all too, what's wrong with your sister?"

Maliyah: "I don't know"

I looked at Langston and shrugged my shoulders. I walked up the stairs and to her room. I knocked twice before opening the door.

Me: "What's wrong with you?" I ask closing the door behind me

Amiyah: "Nothing" She said putting her bag up on her desk

Me: "It don't seem like nothing if this is how you're walking in the house" I said sitting on the edge of her bed

Amiyah: "I don't feel like talking about it" She said sitting on her bed

Me: "Alright, but i'm here if you want to talk" I said getting up

I walked to her door and just as I was about to open the door she spoke up.

Amiyah: "Actually mom. I need your opinion on something" She said looking at me

Me: "What's up" I said turning back around

I went to sit back where I was

Amiyah: "So there's this guy that I... Like and we've been talking for a while, but the other day this chick Dm'd me screenshots of him telling her she's cute and asking if she was single. And it kind of made me mad so I stopped talking to him"

Me: "Okay well if you guys aren't in a relationship you have no right to be mad. But if you guys were in a relationship then i'd say you made the right move by not talking to him anymore; that means he wasn't taking you serious. But at the same time I can't really talk because me and your dad had our fair share of infidelity and I stayed by his side and look at where we are" I said looking around her room

She nodded her head and looked down

Me: "But the way I did things doesn't work for everybody. Listen to your heart and if you really like this person then stay. But if in the back of your mind you're a little iffy about him, don't stay"

Amiyah: "Thank you mom"

Me: "Did I help you out a little?" I asked squinting my eyes

Amiyah: "Yeah"

Me: "Alright now. Don't ever let a dude get you so mad that you're walking around moping all day. You bounce back and hold your head high" I joked

Amiyah: "Got you" She said as laughter filled her tone

Me: "Okay good, love you baby girl

Amiyah: "Love you too mom"

I gave her a hug and walked out the room. 

I'm glad I can be here for her, well for all my kids. To give them the advice they need is just fulfilling to me. Unfortunately me and Langston still haven't told Amiyah about me not being her biological mom but we're planning on doing that soon.
