Rock Your Body

Chapter Nine🎶

It's two days later, and Chris kept his word about the carnival plans he told Bianca. When I asked him who else would be with us, he said nobody else, unless his friends happen to be there too. Chris insisted on it being about the girls, and that's the reason he didn't invite anyone else.

"What I wear?" Bianca asks, deciding on two different dresses I picked out for her to wear today. I laugh as her cute little nose scrounges up in confusion.

"I love both, but the pink one will go with your new shoes I got you last summer." I suggest. Bianca nods, taking off her clothing.

"Do you need help with tha-"

"No!! I a big girl Belly! No help!" Bianca pouts. I throw my hands up in surrender.

"Okay, okay! I'll be right back!" I exit my bedroom to let her change and get the cold water bottles from the freezer I put in there a while ago. Then I go into the cabinets and take a box of cheez-its, pretzels, and apple juices.

"Where do you think you're going? It's late!" My mama comes into the house, after not coming home with my dad the night before.

"It's thre-"

Wait, let's not get into an argument right now. If I say anything negative, it'll only make it worse. I seriously need to chill.

"How was your night? I tried calling you last night to say goodnight but you and Dad didn-"

"Where are you going with my girls-"

"Mama!!! Bella is taking us to the carnival today!!!" Brianna runs into the kitchen beside me, jumping up and down with excitememt. I smile as I glanced down at her happiness glowing. My smile then fades away once my mama stares me in the eye. Shit. I didn't ask for permission to go...but she wouldn't answer my messages or come home so I could!

"Bella, do you think my friend can come too with us an-"

"Bella, you did not ask me for permission."

"But....mama-"

"NO! We don't have the money to do those kinds of things!"

I swear I want to scream and cry as of right now. What the fuck is her problem? I didn't ask for any of her money anyway! UGH! She's so unreasonable!

"Chris pay mama!" Bianca squeals. I harshly hit my forehead. Dammit.

"What?! He's paying for y'all? What the hell does he want in retu-"

"Nothing Mama! He invited the girls and I and...he's one of my good friends-"

"You haven't even known him for a full week-"

"Okay, but-"

"I don't care. You are so disrespectful Isabella. You didn't even ask me first! You still under MY roof which means I AM in charge of you and where you go! My answer is n-"

The door buzzer goes off, and Bianca runs to it, knowing that had to be Chris. Brianna sighs though with a small tear from her eye, knowing how unreasonable our mother always has been and felt the same way as me.

"Belly!!!" Bianca yells my name and runs back to my feet. "Come! Let's go see Chris!" Bianca yanks my arm as the door buzzer goes off once again.

"Mama...plea-"

"No. Tell that young man to go- better yet, give me your phone and ignore him his ass. He can stay there all night. You are officially grounded-"
