♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
My heart jumped out of my chest as I was awakened from the sleep that I seemed to never get. I placed my pillow over my head, thinking that my mother was just having another one of her drunken episodes. I closed my eyes and tried to drift off back to sleep just to hear another, louder crash against my window. I rolled off my bed, banging my head against the floor.
"Ahh, shit." I yelled as the pain shot through my body. I walked to the window slowly, scared of what was going to appear in front of me. I used my right hand to slowly peel back my purple curtains to see someone very unexpected. My best-friend, August Alsina. I stared at him for a minute before he sent me a small wave, bringing me back from my daze. I lifted the window and grabbed his arm, letting him in but still confused on what he was doing here. We stood in the middle of my room as I directed my gaze to what he was wearing. His baggy jeans had dirty stains on them and the smile that used to appear whenever we met up was lost. He avoided eye contact with me so I knew something was wrong.
"August, whatever it is we can talk about it tomorrow but for now just sleep. Imma go get you something to eat, aight?" He sat down on the edge of my bed, grasping his chin hairs before speaking.
"Nah, its aight. I'm coo, i'm not hungry." I punched him lightly in his chest 'cause he already knew that I was still going to keep him fed. I walked to the door, wrapping my hair in a loose bun. I walked down the stairs into the front room to see my mother knocked out on the couch with a 40 ounce on her lap and some random nigga next to her. I walked past them, disgustedly, into the kitchen to warm up the gumbo that we had left over.
I walked into my room, handing the gumbo to August after locking my door. I laid down next to him as he sat up and ate. When he finished, I felt him lay down next to me. It wasn't awkward 'cause this wasn't the first time he popped up at my house in the middle of the night.
Though my eyes were closed I could feel him staring at me. I opened my eyes ready to yell "what" but when my eyes flew open, I seen something I've never seen before. A single tear slowly drifted down his right cheek.
August wasn't the type to cry so I ain't know whether to show him love or let him be. I just didn't want him to react the wrong way. I reached my hand up, wiping the tear with my thumb as he leaned his head down onto my chest.
"He's gone." My chest was now soaked with tears, as I felt his shaky voice vibrate through my body.
"Who's gone?" I asked in a low whisper. I ran my fingers thru his hair as he wrapped his arms around me, gripping tighter.
"My brother." I wrapped my arms around him tightly as tears lightly danced on my cheeks. Our bodies pressed together as if we believed that if one of us let go, then the other person would disapper. The fact that his heart was broken tore my heart to pieces and the fact that I couldn't make his pain go away made it hurt ten times worse.
