Trina POV

I looked back as i saw Derrick headlights in the window. I was a lil nervous. Ion kno why doe. Maybe i was worried about wat she would say. I already kno she aint gon fold. Not on me. T not like that. I got out the car and followed them all to da door. When we got in the house i took my shoes off and  walked over to da couch. I looked ofer at Ty'Anna. She kept hookin her key chain on her finger. I looked at Brenton and Derrick.

Brenton: Well....we jus gon go--
Me: No Brenton. U and Derrick can stay i gotta talk to him too.

My eyes met Derrick's. He looked at me surprised by wat i said, but he sat down anyway. Ty'Anna followed and took a seat on his lap. Brenton came and sat next to me. I took a deep breath.

Me: T. Wats goin on--
Ty'Anna: Nothin y u ask.....

I restrained myself from gettin mad. Lord knows i woulda fired back on her ass. I looked back up at her and Derrick.

Derrick: Baby dis shit aint gon work less u say wats on yo mind.

T looked at him. She sighed and looked back at me and unfolded her arms.

Ty'Anna: We jus drifted.
Me: But why??

I could feel the tears forming in my eyes. I couldnt tell if tears were streaming down Ty'Anna's face or not. But i heard sniffling.

Me: Ty'Anna. Where did i go wrong?? Wat did i do to make u feel like u had to push me away every single time i tried to be there for u???
Ty'Anna: U lied to me. U LIED TO LE TRINA AND U BEEN TREATIN ME LIKE I CANT TAKE CARE OF MYSELF EVER SINCE---

Her voice trailed off. She put her face in her hands for a minute. She looked up at me. I knew i was cryin now. I could feel the hot tears makin puddles on my hands.

Ty'Anna: Ever since momma died. U been actin like it was wrong for me to hustle out on them streets--
Me: Cuz it was T!!!! At the time u was only 11. Out on da corners tryna hustle. U woulda got yo ass killed!!!! Why dont u see dat i aint yo enemy. I aint da one against u.
Ty'Anna: I ONLY DID IT FOR ME!! WHO DA FUCK WAS GON LOOK OUT FOR ME WHEN U WASNT MAKIN ENOUGH HUH??!!!? Who Trina? Yes. I went out on da streets and i did my own damn thing. Lord knows u wasnt makin enough. Nobody knew where da fuck dad was. I HAD TO FEND FOR MYSELF. If u wasnt out hustlin, u was out partyin sum fuckin where. I was tired of livin in dat piece a shit ass apartment. I couldnt do shit. Now im grown. And i jus found out i had a brother. I still feel like im 11. Like im still dat kid on da "Missing" posters.

I was shocked. I didnt kno wat to say. Ty'Anna stood over me. Jus cryin. I got up and i hugged her. I really fucked up. Everything she said was true. I looked in her eyes.

Me: Ty'Anna Marie. U are my sister. I love u to death and i will NEVER take u for granted again. She smiled and wiped her face. She sat back on Derrick's lap and i sat back down next to Brenton. I laughed. I looked at Derrick.

Me: Im sorry Derrick. I was actin like a real bitch when we first met. But u part of the family now dat u wit my sister.

He smiled back at me. I looked over at Ty'Anna. She was grinning from ear to ear. Man. She was sum else. I thought back to when she was a teenager. She done been through a lot. Wayyy more than me. She been to Juvenile Detention ion kno how many times. And she done almost got killed more then dat. But it dont matter. Aint no muhfuckin body perfect. But shiii, its close enough for me.
