It's A Thug Thing

Chapter 70

Ariel

I end up waking up to Mia yelling at somebody in the kitchen. I check the clock on the wall and see it's 6:42. I get up and pull on some Grey Nike Sweat Shorts.

I walk in the kitchen and see her yelling in her phone. "Bro, why you yelling?" I ask as she looks at me.

"Cause I'm pissed the fuck off, your breakfast is in the microwave by the way" She says as she looks back at her phone. "And now I'm on hold"

I grab my food out the microwave and sit at the island. "What you mad about babe?" I ask.

"Jess don't do shit for Ty except occasionally pick him up from school" She starts. "Since he's been born, me and my parents have been supporting him and it's pissing me off, I love him and I don't mind taking care of him, but she's his mother and doesn't do half the shit she's supposed to do, now they gotta go to court cause he's been late continuously without an excuse" She rants. "He's six and still having trouble with some words and his homework cause he's been missing school and been late, my parents teach him when has homework but he still needs help from his teacher cause she knows more, I'm gonna add her to my list of people I owe ass whoopings to"

"Don't fight her, just explain to her what she's doing wrong or some shit" I suggest.

"You don't think I've tried that Ariel? Damn, if you gone give me suggestions give me better ones" She says. I raise a eyebrow and look at her funny.

"Age ain't shit but a number around here, better watch who you talking to, I was just trying help your ungrateful ass" I say getting up. "I'm gonna go get ready for school" I add before heading back to her room. I lay on the bed and check my phone. "Is school worth going to today?" I ask out loud. I shrug and sit up.

Mia walks in and starts going through her closet. She starts throwing shit and hits me with jacket. "Ouch" I say.

"Sorry" She says nonchalantly. See, this is shit here is what we're not gonna do. Got me fucked up.

"Shit Mia, go easy" I say hissing as she rubs peroxide on my back.

"I'm trying to help you, quit flinching" She says.

"Oh now you wanna help me, this shit hurts like crazy" I say flinching again. I told y'all that attitude wasn't gone work around here, and now it's gone. But she scratched the shit out my back. Like way worse than Haven.

She clawed my damn back up and somewhat the front. "You caused it" She says.

"No, you had a attitude and I fixed that shit" I say smirking at her.

"Ariel, shut up" She says blushing. "I'm hanging with my friends, so you gonna drop me off and come get me after school?" She asks.

"Yeah" I say getting up. I pull my Black and Gold Black Pyramid Baseball Jersey and put my hair up.

"Or you could skip school and come with me" She says putting everything away. I look in the mirror and mentally groan. I got this shit on my neck too.

"I gotta go turn in some last minute shit and see what I need to get done, then I'll come" I say fixing the tongues in my shoes.

We get our stuff and head out the door. "I'm taking you by your house to get your car, I gotta give mine a break"

"Alright" I say checking the time. My parents should be gone.

We get to my house and get through the gate. "Can I leave mine here?" Mia asks as she cuts the car off.

"Yeah" I say grabbing my house keys. "I'll be right back" I add before getting out and jogging up the stairs. I walk in the house and grab my car keys off the hook.
