                                                                        Mishon

I ran to the front door to see it cracked and Shi'day nowhere in site. That pissed me off because I was just getting closer to her and she was starting to open up to me and now I think my mother messed that shit up. I stormed back in the kitchen to see my mother still standing in the same place she was at before with a frown on her face.

"See what you did ma" I said trying not to lose my temper with her even tho it was hard. She just stood there careless.

"What... It had to be said son" she said.

"Why did it... I don't care about what her dad did in the past or now all I care about is her. He doesn't owe me a explanation and neither does she so why you trip on her"? 

"Son she's no good I'm telling you... Her family holds a lot of secrets that you don't know" she said in a soft pitiful voice.

"I don't care... and what's got me tripping so hard is that you think that all of a sudden you think you know what's best for me. I can't even bring someone around here without you being so damn judgemental" I raised my voice a little.

She rolled her eyes and tilted her head to the side "You should care... and son i'm far from judgemental and you know that".

I stared at her for a second lowering my eyes and taking a deep breath"You know... I don't even know who you are right now".

"Really Mishon".

"Yeah... And until you apologize to her I don't have much to say to you. Don't bother calling me until you do what's right" I said Leaving the kitchen. I knew I hurt her feelings but she hurt Shi'day's and I couldn't just let that slide.

See I didn't live with my mom I had my own place I just was over a lot because she had no one else. But now my visits would be limited until she comes to her senses. Meanwhile I had to find Shi'day and talk to her I know her mind was all over the place. She finally texted me back after calling and texting several times and told me where she was so I hopped on my whip and made my way to her.

    I walked up to her mother Paula's grave site where she was sitting at holding a big ass wine bottle in her hand. It was late as shit and dark out, I didn't understand why she was out here so late but then again if my mother passed away I probably be doing the same thing. She was so tuned in with to the wine and her thoughts she didn't even know I was standing there behind her.

"You okay"? I asked tucking my hands in my pocket.

She jumped a little as she quickly faced me. "You scared me" she said in a soft voice, holding her chest.

"I didn't mean to... What you doing out here so late"? I asked.

She looked away and sat in deep thought for a minute "You know... I really miss her and sometimes I just think I can't go on without her... I wish she was still here to answer some of these unanswered   questions that I have" she said.

"I feel like everyone knows this missing piece to my life except me... My dad's hidden secrets I feel like our family is torn apart" she added as she broke down crying, I felt so bad for her.

"It's not torn apart things are gonna get better I promise" I said sitting down next to her I reached over and pulled her close to me she started to cry harder.

"I know it hurts ma... And I know you miss ya mom but she's looking down on you and the best thing I can tell you is continue to make her proud" I said. She looked up at me with glossy eyes and gave me a half smile.

"I got ya back" I said smiling back before pecking her lips a few times.

"I know you do" she said pecking my lips and smiled.

We got up after a while and I walked her to my car. By now she was definitely feeling the wine so I had to help her get in the passenger side.

"Oh wait... I forgot my phone down there at her grave I gotta get it" she said bout to get out until I gently pushed her back to the seat and buckled up her seat belt.

"Relax ma... I got you" I said. I closed the door and jogged back over to where the grave site was.

I picked up her phone and something heavy touched my heart, I had to make something clear. "Paula baby I loved you like a mother you was my heart... I'm so sorry for what happened... I'm sorry for what I let happen when I should have stopped it I never would have wanted nothing to happen to you... And trust me I'ma look after Shi'day I won't break her heart. Love you watch over us... Miss you love" I said before turning and walking away. I almost shed a tear I swear but I held it together mostly for Shi'day. She couldn't know I knew what happened to her mom as bad as I wanted to tell her the truth I couldn't jeopardize what we have. I was starting to really fall for this girl and I didn't want nothing to happen where I would lose her.

My eyes slowly opened as the car came to a stop. We were parked in front this huge three story house somewhat on a hill. I stepped out and stood stunned at the way he was living. He grabbed a duffle bag out his trunk then guided me  in the beautiful home. I Was amazed even more when we stepped inside, It was so spot less nothing was out of place at all, you could tell Mishon has expensive taste.

"I love your house" I said as we walked through the Living room.

"Yeah let me take you on a tour" he said as we walked up the long curved stairs.

He toured me all over he showed me his two spare rooms one that he uses as a office and the other a regular neatly blue colored decorated bedroom with a king size bed. We then walked down the hall to his master bedroom which was neatly decorated and colored red and black, a 63 inch flat screen plastered to the wall and a California king bed. He walked over to the wall that held a big black picture on it he removed the picture and revealed a safe box plastered inside the wall. He touched it with his left hand and it opened. He took out ten stacks of money out the duffle bag and put it in the safe then he emptied his pockets pulling out wades of money stuffing it in the safe then he closed it. I ain't gonna lie I was curious to what Mishon did for a living but I never really had the balls to ask.

I told him I wanted to take a shower he gave me a t-shirt and a pair of boxers and I went in the master bathroom, I fell in love with it. I turned on the shower stripped down out my clothes and stepped in the steamy hot water.
Fifteen minutes later, I was dressed and coming out the bathroom to see Mishon laid on his bed with his back against the headboard. I climbed in the bed and cuddled up underneath him and was out like a light. Being in his arms made me feel so comfortable I didn't wanna move at all and up underneath him was where I stayed all night.
