It was about 5 o'clock. I just came home from swim practice. I go to the fridge and see if my mom would be home tonight and as usual she wouldn't be. "I'm sorry honey. I'm trying to get us out of this financial hole. I promise. I left you some money for dinner. Go to the Chinese food restaurant down 34th street. I love you so much. – Momma. Ps: don't forget about Shion. I know how much you dislike him but please just make it work. I'll repay you I promise."
Ugh! I hate my brother with a passion. Literally. If I could take anybody out of this world, it would be him. Without a doubt. I still must provide for him. We all do. Even though he puts us through hell, we still have to love him. "KRISTINAAAA! I NEED YOUU." He repeats it for about 2 minutes. Then he should know that I'm not going upstairs. I'm lazy as hell btw. "Kris, you getting the food tonight?" "Don't I always? Your lazy ass doesn't do anything but sit around, watch tv and practically not have a care in the world. You make bank and you can't even help mom" He walked up super close to me. Like nose distance apart."Don't you ever say some dumb shit like that again. I do what I can for ma. She doesn't see it like that and neither do you. I bust my ass every day for us. I don't get shit in return. You wonder why I'm barely here. Kristina, I would do anything for you and ma. You know that, right?"
I stood back speechless. I couldn't form words at the time. I take back what I said in the beginning. He's a pretty cool brother. "Yeah. I know that Shi. I been knew that from the jump." "Okay then. That's what I like to hear. When you get back from...?" "Oh. Yum Yum's on 34th" "Really? Come on Ma. Kris, you want really good Chinese food?" "Yeah but I like Yum Yum's. They're good." "Kris, we're going for a ride" "But Shi" "But nothing. Get in the car. I'll lock up everything" As I went in the car, I realized how poorly we lived.
We live in PG County. The ghe-tto, as my mom says it. He gave me the thumbs up, got in the car and we were off. Love Scars by Trippie Redd was playing, and that song is my shit. Shi likes the song too. As we were singing, we passed by all the other projects. I was looking out my window as I saw a drug deal process happen and it didn't end well. We then heard gunshots and the police siren were shortly after the gunshot. After the song was done, Shi turned down the radio. We both tried to say something at the same time but got cut off my each other so I just said that he could go first. "Kris, did anything happen at school today?"
"Yeah. Diamiond and Bre had a fight, the pep rally is Friday and today surprisingly 4-6 guys tried to get at me today." As soon as I finished my statement, he put the car on brakes sharply. "Do I need to get them? Did they touch you? Did they do anything to you? You know I'm not scared to fuck someone up." I laughed at how overprotective he was over me. It was so freaking funny. "You don't have to do anything. You don't have to get them, and they didn't touch me." "Okay Kris. Remember if anything happens let me know. I don't care if they say "if you tell someone, we'll kill you" remember, tell me anything and it'll be handled." From what he said, it gave me a sense of relief. It's good knowing that my brother would do something for me like that. As we pulled up to the restaurant, it gave me the chills. But that doesn't matter.
What matters is that the Chinese food is bomb. We were right beside a drug store on the right and a liquor store on the left, so you know something was bound to happen. I walk in first because Shi opened the door for me and immediately I regret the clothing I picked because all you heard were catcalls. I had on some jeggings and a loose tank top with some hoops and my hair was still wavy because of the pool water. (Water makes my hair wavy. Thank god for black girl magic!) I just remained quiet because one, one-third of them were drunk. Two, one-thirds of them were high. Three, the other third was completely sober. I just don't know what they see tbh. These are lounge clothes. As I was getting my food, one guy got up from his table full of guys, so I think that those were his friends. He walked up to me and said "Yo, lil mama wit da hoops and da wavy hair. I like yo vibe. Maybe we can chill sometime, yafeelmeh" "Nah. I don't chill. Go get someone else for that. I know whatchu doing. It's a dull ass trap and I aint fallin for it."
When I tried to walk away, he grabbed my arm. "Oh. You thought this was going to be easy? Nah. Imma have that ass one way or another." His hands were huge. Bigfoot headass. He held my arms together with one hand and dragged me out the restaurant. "SHI. SHI GET OUT THE FUCKING BATHROOM AND HELP ME! SHION AARION HUGHES! HELP ME PLEASE! ITS YOUR LITTLE SISTER. PLEASE COME OUT!" I watched as nobody helped me, and the bathroom door remained closed. All hope was lost. I was about to become a rape victim. He took me around the corner to an alley. I left pieces of things so if Shi were to come out, he could follow it. He tied my hands with ropes and covered my mouth shut when I got there. "You must've didn't believe me babygirl." As he caressed my face and body, I got goosebumps as he said these words. "Trust me. This won't hurt a bit. And if you tell your brother about this, something will happen."
God.
