Chapter 1

I sat up in my bed covered in sweat wiping the back of my neck and forehead. I've been having the same dream for the past couple of nights where in the end me and King didn't make it out of that mess at mama Mae's that night.

I rolled over and looked at the clock on the nightstand next to me. Eight o'clock on the dot guess I'll get up since I can't get any sleep. I pulled my hair back ,my makeup all smeared together I just looked a hot mess. I stared at the mirror in the bathroom at my now brown mark that covered my right shoulder. My war wound. The only blemish on my smooth complexion I turned on the water and wait a while before stepping into it letting it cloud my thoughts. Thirty minutes later I got out of the shower and wrap a towel around myself. some pink boyshorts and my matching bra I threw on my oversized button down shirt I slipped my feet into my bedroom shoes and headed towards king room had to wake him up earlier so he doesn't be late to school.

"King wakiee wakie." I shook his bed to wake him up. He rubs his eyes and rolled over with his hot morning breath and blow it all in my face.

"I dont Wonna go skool mommy" he complained.

I thought about it and decided he could stay home today and we could go out and enjoy some time together.

" go back to sleep I'll come wake you up later to get dressed okay" I rubbed his back.

"okay mommy" He rolled back over and I smile King really did think he was my child and so did everyone else I might not of gave birth to him but he's every bit of mine.

I licked his face and he hopped up.

"Ewww" he screamed throwing his cover back an chasing after me. I ran down the hall into the bedroom jumping on the covers. He jumped on the bed and tackled me. I tickled him when he tried licking me. We both laying down in my bed and watch Sesame Street he fell straight back to sleep and I started drifting off until the doorbell ring. I went into the living room and turned on the television, channel 12 news. The only thing that makes my life not seem like a complete mess is learning about worse situations. The doorbell rang again. I hustled off towards the door now aggravated with whoever was so impatient. I looked through the peephole that someone had their hand over. I turned around and grab the silencer from behind the picture frame on the wall. I open the door and Isis bomb rushed me. I flew back into the wall I pointed the gun at her legs and shot she went straight down Pink and Dutches came in with bats and pepper spray. I aimed in between both of them Pink punk ass ran right back out the house. Dutches didn't move as expected.

" sit the gun down and be a women bout yo issues" she urged on.

"Says the bitch holding the bat" I pointed out. 

She sat down the bat... I threw the  gun to the side and charged at her.

I tackled her and started punching her in the face she grabbed my hair started pulling I grabbed her hair and started smashing her head into the tile. I felt myself being lifted off of her and grabbed two hands full of her hair. I started kicked her in the head. 

"Let GO ma." the random person lifted up higher.

"Punk bitch" Dutches screamed. I pulled with all my might and pulled it out she started falling back so I kicked my foot one last time right in her mouth. She hit the ground and layed there then she spit on my floor blood and some teeth she looked at me then at the bat she ran to grab it and whoever was holding me let me go and pushed her into the door and grabbed the bat.

"Get the fuck outta here you done already got yo ass beat. wear that ass whoppen for I let her beat yo ass again"

"Fuck you" she spat.
