Step brother [A Prodigy Short Story] *completed*

suffering the consequences

"What the fuck happened to you and Craig doing yall dirt away from the house?"

"We were caught up in the moment Ci I'm sorry."

She looked at me with so much anger that I had to look away. I'd never seen her this mad at me before & I didn't like it.

"Yea well I'm fuckin grounded because of your dirty sheets! Mom saw them & since they were yours, she immediately suspected you & Craig are still messing around. & now she's considering moving you to El Paso with daddy. "

The tears began to fall almost instantly. I didn't want to go to no fuckin Texas! I sobbed & flung myself on the bed, burying my head into my pillow then just cried like a baby. After five minutes, I sat up & wiped my eyes to see Ci standing there still then I realized she said she was grounded.

"Why... Why are you grounded?"

Her eyes filled up with tears & they began to fall rapidly.

"Because I told mom it was Roc & I that were having sex so now... He's not allowed to come over & I can't go to his house either"

Her voice started to shake uncontrollably & she stormed out of my room. Guilt immediately invaded my body. She & Roc shouldn't have to suffer for my own mistake.
