Through Their Eyes

Chapter 3 : Who's that girl, Where she from, Valuable lesson

(K'emana P.o.v)

Mom, Dad, Today was interesting saw this new girl at my school today, apparently she's going to be going to Berkeley high school, there was some lady, with her signing papers, for her to be enrolled .

(Diana speaks) Just because you saw some so-called new girl at your school doesn't mean that she's going to be enrolled there, how are you so sure about the claims your making, can't just make up assumptions k'emana .

You know mom , you make a valid point but I know she'll be attending Berkeley high school, the lady that she was with started talking to the principal about getting her familiar with her new surroundings, if I'm not mistaken nobody signs papers without the intention of enrollment. .

(Diana speaks) well, that's interesting sweetheart, What color was the girl and the lady that she was with, if you don't mind me asking.

(Kemana speaks) I'm definitely not about to answer your question I feel like it's a trap , a trick question, and a set up all at once, (Micah looks at his daughter he gives her the you better answer your mother look ) K'emana (sighs) the lady that she was with was black and the girl looked white, you happy, you satisfied now .

(Diana speaks) don't give me any mouth, Fix your tone of voice when talking to me, don't  think I won't  whip your ass, Just because I'm a white woman doesn't mean that I won't whip your black ass, stop acting like you don't have any sense of home training, you not to old to get your ass beat, I'm your mother your the child stay in your lane k'emana .

Why does everything have to be about color with you, and why is their skin color your main concern , you get on my damn nerves you irritating my fucking soul, I'm leaving,
I can't stay in the same room as you .

(Diana speaks) that's it, goes over to k'emana (slaps her) now go to your room and don't come out till I tell you too, she done got me fucked up, acting like I won't do exactly what I tell her I will do, she keeps testing me, Micah
she's lost her mind.

(Micah speaks) babe, calm down, your turning red as a tomato, I think you could've handled the situation a lot differently, you didn't have to smack her to get your point across, it wasn't that serious don't you think your being a little to hard on her .

( Diana speaks ) what do you mean it's not that serious you taking her side now, Micah looks at Diana (shaking his head) he (sighs) babe, I'm not taking her side... I just think you could have handled the situation differently that's all.

"So what your telling me is that I'm the one that's being too hard on k'emana You saw the way she talked to me, I can't believe you right now, don't say anything to me you can leave now.

Micah ( looks at Diana ) you know what I'll just leave ... Diana looks at Micah yeah, you go head and do that , Micah ( looks at Diana ) you want anything from the store while I'm out, Diana (looks at Micah) no, thanks I'm good she watches as her husband leaves out the Door.

Meanwhile
