"Rakim! Rakim!" My mother ripped my sheets away from me.
The last time I got out of jail, she was hounding me about getting a job.
Since we are upon a similar situation, I already knew what it was.
My eyes stayed shut, and I didn't move an inch.
"Boy, I ain't playing with yo ass!" She spoke even louder.
"I am aslee-"
Water splashed on my face and up my nostrils.
I sat up immediately, rubbing at my burning nose. "What'chu drowning me for?! I can't get one-"
"Shut up. Stop talking to me like you done lost yo goddamn mind. Now get up. I'm not telling you nomore" She left with her purple robe trailing behind her.
I huffed and smacked the bed before standing up.
I haven't even been home for one day and she wildin' on me already.
