My Family Loves Her...But Do I? (A Prodigy Love Story)

Being Home

“Hey Faith.” Alexadrine smiled when she saw Faith standing at the door.

“Hey girl.” They hugged. “So what are we doing today?” Faith walked in.

“I don’t know, maybe swimming.” Alexadrine shrugged as they sat on the couch.

“Hey Alex, where’s th-” Roc was cut off by Faith’s short loud-pitched scream. “Whoa. I will never get used to the screaming.” He said shocked.

“Sorry. Alex why didn’t you tell me he was here?” Faith scowled her.

“You never asked.” Alexadrine shrugged.

“Oh so now I’m supposed to ask if any of MB is in your house?” Faith asked Alexadrine who shrugged in response making Faith scoff and roll her eyes. Roc crawled over the couch and laid on Alexadrine.

“Roc get up.” She whined trying to push him off.

“No. You should at least let me lay on you since you beat me up two days ago. And we’re best friends.” Roc responded.

“Ha you think we’re still best friends ‘cause you’re talking to me now?” Alexadrine asked.

“Yeah.” Roc nodded.

“Nope you’ve been thinking wrong.” Alexadrine shook her head.

“So I have to earn it back?” he questioned sitting up.

“Yep.” Alexadrine nodded.

“Where do I stand now?” he inquired looking at her,

“In between new friend to close friend.” She answered.

“Meanie.” Roc pouted.

“Eh, I’ve been called worse.” She shrugged.

“Like what?” Roc asked.

“Your best friend.” She replied.

“Ooh.” Faith laughed then coughed looking away when Roc looked at her making Alexadrine chuckle.

“I guess I should introduce you guys. Roc that’s Faith, my best friend. And Faith you know who that is.” Alexadrine said.

“Hi.” Faith smiled.

“Hey.” Roc looked at Alexadrine. “So what are we doing today?” he asked her.

“Pool party.” She stood up.

“Okay I’m going to change.” Roc stood up and went to the guest room he was staying in.

“Is my stuff still in my room?” Faith asked Alexadrine who nodded. After Alexadrine got dressed in her in tankini, she went to her back yard. While she set up the pool, Faith put Alexadrine’s iPod on the dock. “Where’s Roc?” Faith asked.

“Taking his time changing into his swim trunks.” Alexadrine and Faith laughed.

“What’s so funny?” Roc asked as he walked out.

“Nothing.” Faith replied scrolling through the song list.

“Yeah sure.” Roc said sarcastically. She started playing ‘I Like It’ by Sevyn Streeter.

“Oh I think I need might need a cigarette cause we be off and then we on again.” Faith and Alexadrine. Sang.

“You know this song reminds me of?” Alexadrine asked Faith.

“Who?” she asked in response.

“You and Taylor.” Alexadrine answered.

“Yeah but that was last year, so long ago.” Faith responded as Roc sat in the lawn chair next to her.

“The way my body feels when you’re laying right beside me, boy Imma be right here. Don't care what nobody say, ‘cause oh I like it, I like it. Oh I like it, I like it. Oh I like it, I like it. Oh I like it, I like it. If you call yo man yo boo and you like and love him too, say "I like it". If he give it to you good and he keeps that loving hood, say "I like it”. I like it, I like the way you kiss me baby. I like it.” Alexadrine sang.

Roc clapped. “Beautiful.”

“Goofball.” Alexadrine laughed. “Do you guys want something to drink?” she asked.

“I’ll take water.” Faith answered.

“Lemonade please.” Roc smiled.

“Okay I’ll be back.” Alexadrine walked up the patio stairs to the kitchen.

“So who’s Taylor? If you don’t mind me asking.” Roc sat up facing Faith, who was on instagram.

“Ex-boyfriend. We were on and off our sophomore year.” Faith answered as Band-Aid started playing.

“Oh I’m sorry.”

“It’s fine, I’m over it anyway.” She smiled putting her hair behind her ear.

“You know, I like you. You’re not loud and jittery like most fans. Well except for earlier.” He smiled and they both laughed.

“Yeah sorry about that. I was caught off guard.” She giggled sheepishly.

“It’s cool.” He smiled as his part in Band-Aid came on.

Alexadrine came out rapping along with Faith and the song. “It's Double R! Tell me where it hurts love. Let me dry your little tears, clean your wounds up yeah! Baby this is meant to be, it's just a shame it took pain to lead you to me.”

Roc laughed sipping his drink. “Wow you two sound better than me.” He commented. Faith smiled as Ayy Ladies by Tyga played. Roc and Alexadrine started dancing making Faith laugh as she started a keek.

“Hey keek so we were sitting talking then Ayy Ladies started playing and these two started dancing.” She explained to camera pointing it towards Alexadrine and Roc.

“Ladies (ladies) and you know you bad (bad), then put yo' hands in the air. (What they call her?) Big Booty Judy, love the way she shake it, drop it to the flo', gon' earthquake it.” Roc sang along dancing with Alexadrine.

“Bye keek.” Faith laughed when it ended. Jacob ran out throwing his towel on a lawn chair.

“Whoo!’ he yelled jumping in the pool making Alexadrine scream from being splashed before jumping in giggling. Roc smiled walking towards Faith.

“No, no, no.” she shook her head seeing Roc standing above her. He grabbed her and ran to the pool jumping in.

“Hold your breathe!” he yelled before they hit the water. Soon Jacob, Alexadrine, Faith, and Roc were splashing each other.

When Prodigy was helped out his car, the first thing he heard was screaming, water splashing, and Leggo by B Smyth ft. 2 Chainz playing. “Dad just open the door, I’m okay.” Prodigy told Mr. Craig., who was trying to help him walk.

“Prod, my baby. How are you?” Mamma C asked when Prodigy walked in.

“Yeah, ma I’m fine.” He said slightly annoyed.

“Your dad cleared out the storage room and put a bed in there so you don’t have to go all the way upstairs to your room.” His mother explained as they walked to it. Prodigy sat on the bed after placing his crutches against the wall next to it. He sighed bringing his legs onto the bed. “Do you want or need anything?” his mom asked standing at the doorframe.

“For this nightmare to end.” He mumbled after he shook his head and his mom left the room.
