Toot Pov

Dear Diary,

Trying to hold in these thoughts and bite my tongue . So far its been working.. I wonder how long its gonna last.. when I'm mad I get silent cause if I say what I feel shits gone get real in here...

♥ Toot.

I closed Taylor and I 's Diary. YES, I said diary ... We been keeping it since middle school. We both write in it and we both read it.. Its been 10 minutes since I woke up to her and Ray ass on the phone. I have no beef with Ray, he my cool or whatever.. I just hate when she talk to him while she around me. I felt my phone ring, I looked at the screen and seen this girl name De'Onna picture . I bit my bottom lip and answered the phone. " Wass Poppin Laa Mama? "

"Hey Toot, what y'all doing tonight?", she replied.

" Shid, I think Tayee tryna hit the movies later on tonight. Why wassup? "

" I was just tryna see what the move was for tonight that's all, Bye. " she replied then hung up quickly.

De'Onna was fine as hell ... But she also wasn't my girl.. well, ion got a girl but I got my eye on one... I walked out the room and Taylor was still.on the phone with Ray ass... I looked her in the eye .. " Im Going to The Store If You Wanna Come Then Get Ya Ass Up And Come On Cause Ian Finna Wait On You All Day. ", I said in a sharp annoyed tone.. she rolled her eyes " I gotta go bae .. I love you - He hung up again " she sounded disappointed ... Ain't say shit, I just put on clothes and looked for my car keys. I grabbed a stack of bills from my stash . By the time I.was locking the doors to the house Tayee was already outside standing next to my door. I pressed the unlock button to let her in. She slammed my door ' on Jesus I wanted to slap the fuxk outta her . I got in and crank the car " Slam my car again and imma knock yo ass anorexic " I Yelled as I sped off down the street . We got in the store and I picked out some fresh ass boxers . We was headed to the register and we seen these cute little bears or whatever . Taylor gotta thing for lil shit like that though ... she picks up the bear and its the biggest thing ever.. " Toot, pweeese can I have this?! " she begged. I looked at the price of the bear. It was 30$ .. she know I can't ever tell her ass no so why she do.this to me?! Ughh .. " Yeah get 2 " I said.. she jumped up and down all excited and shit .. she grabbed em. I paid for all the shit then we left.. when I got home my grandma and pops was just turning the corner and Taylor was in the house with her two new bears. My grandma checked the mail and looked through it while she walked in the house. I walked out my room " where my daddy going?" I asked watching my daddy pull off. " Gone somewhere honey " she replied . She looked at the letter she just opened and sighed heavily . I took the letter out of her hand and read it ... the light bill was $1208.25 ... " Ion know what we gone do Tianna, ion got that much money and aint nobody helpin me out . I gotta take care of you, jaden and brebre, feed you everyday and the rent past due . rent man talking bout puttin us out Friday if ion.got 800$.. the city gonna turn the lights off if ion got the money by Monday .." she said ... it kills me to see my Grandma struggle when I got stacks of money in my room from the hustle ... I know what you thinking ... why I wont give her my money

..? Well shit she wont take it hell.! I've tried ... I hugged her and looked at her " Its gone be alright maa " .. I assured her. " Alright now toot get on with all that gay shit! You know ion play with that hugging shit " ... she replied ... I laughed as i walked back into my room and Taylor was going through my phone. " what you going through now? "I asked. she put the phone down and looked at me. " What are you hiding from me toot? " ....
