tired of being nice
(Phone rings)
"Hello."
"Hey Naomi, do you think you can take me to work today?"
" what time do you have to be there?"
"10:00."
"OK I'm getting up now see you in 30."
"OK girl thanks. O and I will pay you the money that I borrowed from you when I get paid. You know I been struggling with bills and taking care of these kids but I haven't forgotten about you."
"Don't worry about it."
"OK talk to you later."
Shyanne always need something every time I turn around somebody asking me to do something or take them somewhere but I can't ever get a favor when I need one. Shyanne has been owing me $150 for 3 months we have been to the club, shopping and everywhere together but she can't pay me I am so tired of this shit let me get up.
"Baby where you are going?" Naomi's boyfriend Jace asked
"About to take Shyanne to work"
"that bitch always need a ride. Why didn't she call Nazir?"
"I don't know Jace she asked me, I'm coming right back."
"Whatever you to fucking nice you need to learn how to say no to them bitches."
Don't know why he complaining I never say no to his ass, one day I'm going to go off on all their ass and see how they feel.
I pulled to Shyanne house blew the horn and waited for her to come out.
"Right"
"What that suppose to mean. So, are you trying to say that I don't have your back."
"Did you he "Hey girl thanks for coming to get me my car get out the shop next week you know I got you when you need me."
ar that come out my mouth Shyanne you know I don't mind looking out?"
"Yeah I know so what's up for tonight are we hitting the club or what."
"Jace and his boys talking about hitting Club ban-gees we could hang out with them."
"The one downtown"
"Yeah invite Trey I will tell Nazir and she can bring Nicholas."
"Girl you know dam well we not bringing our men if Jace and his sexy ass friends gone be up in there."
Naomi laughed
"You better stop flirting with my man."
"Whatever bitch thanks for the ride see you tonight."
"Later."
"You know that bitch want your man right."
What the fuck was that. I know I am not tripping I'm the only one in this damn car.
"Don't act brand new bitch you know who this is."
"Skyla"
"Yeah it's me I don't know why you try to block me out as much shit I did for you. If it wasn't for me them girls would have beat your ass in the 6th grade I stopped that Naomi you need me right now Nazir isn't shit but a bully Shyanne is a fucking user and don't get me started on that sorry ass nigga laying up in yo house like he running something let me handle this for you Nae you know how I roll and you don't have the heart to do it let me get em."
"Skyla, I got in a lot of trouble messing with you. No, I'm good."
"Naomi please you have been a push over your whole fucking life you needed a little excitement shit I thought I was helping."
"No, you did not help any Skyla you actually had me looking like a damn fool talking to myself."
"Well whatever no time for the small talk when you ready to stand up for yourself holler at me."
Skyla is my alter ego. I don't know how she came about but it started when I was 10.I was getting bullied by this boy across the street from me and to make matters worse we went to the same school. He would always tell our classmates that my parents beat me and that I pee in the bed. One day I was out in the yard trying to fix the chain on my bike when he came and pushed me. at first I just sat there Then he came and pushed my head in the grass and before I knew it I had him on the ground with a busted lip crying for his mamma. My mom sent me to my room and there it started me looking in the mirror and another image of me brushing my hair SKYLA.
Back at home
"Damn it took you a long time to just drop her off what u had to drive her across the country or something."
"No Jace you know she moved to the east side."
"Nah I didn't know...where at?"
"Mack and Chalmers..."
"Now why would you drive all the way from 8mile and Southfield to the east side just to bring somebody back to Southfield?"
"Because I'm a good friend..."
"Whatever what are you doing tonight?"
"I Nazir and Shyanne was talking about coming to Club Bengees with you and your boys."
"O that's cool."
Glad, he didn't trip last time I thought he was going to cut my head off when I tried to hang with him and his boys.
