"Where the fuck is my lipgloss" I heard my mom yell. I quickly went under the covers and pretend I was asleep and took seconds later I heard footsteps and the cover being snatched. I still pretended I was sleep but she yanked me up. "Lil girl you gotta whole lot of nerve thinking you was slick" she yelled. "Mom, I'm thirteen years old about to be 14 in 3 months" i said rolling me eyes.
"Ight you right but since you not a kid anymore, don't call me when ya eyes get stuck from rolling them shits all the way to the back of ya skull" she jokes a little.
"You and I both know damn well that could not happen" I said laughing. " what I tell you about all that cussing in this house" she yells again. "Ok I'm sorry" I say backing up.
"So where is my lipgloss and I won't ask yo ass the same question again"she says putting her hand on her hip. "You just did" I chuckled. She glared at me.
"Umm, you see" I started
Her eyes widen. "Well I lost in school I'm really sorry but don't you have a whole lot" I asked. " yes I do, but that was one my favorites" she says making gestures with her hands.
"Ok then, I'll buy you another one but you can use the second of your favorite" I said while braiding my hair into a ponytail corn row.
"Ok but that's not the point, you gotta stop taking my shit without my permission and I swear on god if I find another thing missing ouuuuu you gon get it" she says glaring
"Ok, I won't do that again" I said walking over to my dresser grabbing the comb. She walked out my door and went all the way down the hall back to her room.
"Aye, ma can I please go visit Trevone and go to the mall and get the lipgloss for you" I shouted. She paused for a moment.
"Yeah you can go, but what time you leaving cuz if your leaving now, you could wait until Tommy gets here then he could drop you off" she says looking at me while putting on her fake eyelashes.
"Nah, that's good I was gonna take a nap then go and it's 3:32 go I'll go at 5" I answered back.
"Well ok but remember watch your surroundings there's a lot of crazy ass people out here especially in Brooklyn. I've always told you that" she assures me.
"Actually, my dad said that to me every single day. Not you"I said lowly feeling tears coming up
"Huh" she says not understanding what I just said. "I said don't worry, I'll be fine" I said and she nodded.
She was wearing a light pink off the shoulder dress with her clear boot heels. I ain't gonna lie, she was looked good or whatever. "So where are you going" I asked.
"Tommy decided to take me out for our anniversary, call me if anything is wrong ok" she says grabbing her purse and mini jacket.
I nodded. Then we both heard a car horn and she went out not before kissing my cheek. I then took my Tyler perry madea having ass upstairs and took my nap.
