"You sure you don't want me to go with you ma? " Marteese asked for the third time.
"Ye-a, I'm sure Marteese" I chuckled a little, also a little irritated.
Were infront of Compton mall, in the car. I figured I buy me some stuff.... well alot of stuff. Marteese offered to buy everything but I want to do it on my own. Sometimes I feel like I'm his second daughter, he does everything for me.
"Igh, just call me if something happen" Oh yea, he bought me a iPhone. "I'm serious Darnesha, I don't want you hurt" He grabbed my hand looking into my eyes.
" I pro-mise I w-ill" I studdered nervously. He smiled and kissed my cheek. "Bye RiRi" I said in a baby voice to his daughter, Rimmey.
"Ma-mama" she whined in her lil baby voice reaching for me.
She started calling me mama a couple days after I moved in with Marteese. This is my third week there, she calls me mama everytime she sees me. The first time called me mama I cried my heart out.
It reminded me of my daughter, she would have been calling Me mama by now.
When I cried Marteese comforted me but I never told him why I was crying.
"RiRi what did daddy te-" Marteese started but I cut him off.
"It's okay, see you l-ater" I waved bye getting out the car, Marteese watched me walk in before pulling off.
My eyes widened at the sight of all the stores, I haven't been in a mall since my parents passed away. I still remember when my dad took me and my mom on shopping sprees together. I miss them so much, they were my everything.
I started to walk around the mall slowly, admiring the colors and the memories. Couples walked around hand & hand, some with kids.
"Forever 21" I mumbled standing infront. I slowly walked in with a small smile.
"Hello ma-Darnesha ?!" A girl said walking up to me. Light skin, pretty dark eyes and beautiful blue hair. She looks so familiar.
I stared at her clueless. She stood there with a huge smile.
"It's me Zendaya, remember from the diner?" she chuckled. I stared at her before finally reluzaing who she was.
"Oh he-y Zendaya, your ha-ir is different" I studdered with a small smile.
"Yea, I changed it once I got this Job. Why didn't you ever come back to the diner? Everybody was wondering" we started walking around the store.
"Family problems" I lied through my white teeth, she nodded slowly.
"Oh I hear you, so what are you here looking for?"
"A wh-ole new wardrobe" I cleared my throat.
"Okay, well the pants and leggings are over here along with shirts and jackets. Um, dresses that way" she used gestures. "Shoes in the back, along with a few bags and lastly accessories by the counter" she turned towards me and smiled.
"Ok-ay thanks" I smiled a little.
"Okay, just call me if you need anything" she smiled again before walking away.
I turned to the clothes "You got this Darnesha" I mumbled to myself.
I started picking up loads of jeans, shorts, leggings, different types of shirts and jackets. Also, dresses and stuff. I picked out over 40 different assceriories, including bags. I picked up a few sandals too.
"Damn Darnesha, you went all out didn't you girl" Zendaya said picking up the clothes and stuff I dropped taking them up to the register, I followed.
"I guess" I laughed a bit.
"You are gonna look fyre bad in these clothes girl, I just know it" she teased. I giggled.
"Aye Leah, can you go get me a a few big bags for her and a cart." she yelled to some girl across the store.
Compton is so different, they give you carts if you have a lot of clothes. You can walk around the whole mall with it.
She rung everything up and put them in big bags then in the cart. The cart is filled up with clothes!
"Alright girl, your total is $ 445.50" she finished tapping the screen for the register.
I handed her my visa card. All the money I-well Raineisha made from selling my stuff, I put into my bank account which is now as Marteese says 'Balling'.
"Here's your recipet, see ya girl" Zendaya smiled as I pushed the cart out the store, I did the same.
I continued to walk around the mall, I bought ten pairs of shoes, more clothes and I went into Victoria Secret. I bought a load of perfume & underwear/bras.
After I bought everything I went to the front of the mall calling Marteese.
"Hello? " he answered kind of happily.
"I-m ready now"
"Alright, I'm down the street"
"Ok-ay" I hung up the phone.
I sat on the benches outside the mall. I watched as people entered & exit out the mall.
I started to see figures of me and my parents, laughing & joking. All holding hands with the biggest smiles. My mom still beautiful, hair a complete copy of mine. My dad , a clone of me. I could hear our laughes together and conversations.
"Mommy I love you so much" I said..
"I love you too baby" she kissed my cheek.
"I love you too daddy" I giggled.
"I love you more princess" he smiled at me.
