Just The Beginning

Chapter 2

Crystal's P.O.V

I walked past the table that my brother and little sister were currently and into the kitchen. I remembered I had a plate of leftover Mac and cheese, cornbread, baked beans, and cake from my cousins birthday party we went to last night. I got a little excited thinking about it and basically started skipping to the refrigerator.

When I got there it was the worst thing ever... MY PLATE WAS GONE!!! Ok, you see now I'm pissed off cause I can't have nothing.

And my mouth was all watering and ready for it, I mean like I had it hid in the back covered by the gallon of milk and 2 boxes of eggs with my name on it. Now, who was the asshole that took my plate.

I walk out the kitchen and to the dining room ready to kill the monster who took my baby.

As soon as I walk in there guess what I see my twin brother stuffing his ugly ass face full of MY MAC AND CHEESE.

Oh yeah, in the words of Kevin Hart "it's about to go down".  "Malik what the hell thats my food" I said and getting more angry cause he gone look at me like I'm stupid.

"No, it's not I been had this food." He said and got the audacity to keep eating my food, like what the hell does he got a death wish. I take some deep breaths because he had 1 minute left to live, yes y'all it's that serious because I don't play about my food or my sister.

I speak slowly to him cause obviously he has issues "Malik you gone sit here in my face and lie saying that's your food when you know damn well I got that last night. Matter of fact, now that I think about it we all got a plate to bring home where yours at" I asked.

He rolled his eyes and said "Man I ate mine now can you leave me alone dang. This why nobody like your ass bruh damn."

That was all it took and I took the plate from him and ran to the kitchen. He chased me as soon as I took it and I threw it in the trash. "Man, what the fuck" he said looking defeated.

I however had a satisfied smirk on my face "if I can't have my food I'm not gone let you have it" I said but deep down I was weeping cause that food was so good.

But than I was pulled outta my thoughts when my heart dropped in my ass cause I heard him say one name. "MOMMA!!!" OH SHIT.

I'm frozen in my place when I hear those footsteps approaching of the 5'1 woman. "Boy, why is you yelling in my house, what you want" she said as she finally reached the kitchen.

Malik had this triumphant smirk on his face and I was filled with dread for what was to come. Malik did what he was always good at and LIED. " Ma, Crystal took my plate of food I got from the party last night and threw it in the trash all because she ate hers and said I ate it" that bastard.

I give him a A for acting. My mom looked at him and than at me and said "really, Christie why you did that when you ate your plate already that was just selfish" I had to defend myself "nu uh, he lying that was my plate he was eating and I can prove it cause remember he was up last night in the refrigerator and you told him to get out the kitchen. I believe that's when he ate his plate and this morning he ate mine" I said practically out of breath by the time I finished talking.

She looked at us and slapped Malik in the back of the head and than slapped me in my head. "Ow, what you hit me for I was telling the truth" Malik said rubbing his head on the spot she previously hit him at. She glared at him and said "keep lying Malik ima slap your ass again" so I was confused too than why she slapped me if she knew I was telling the truth. " Why you slapped me than you knew I was telling the truth" I said.

"Because y'all act like a bunch of 5 year olds like seriously y'all 17 and look at Kiki that girl got more sense than y'all put together." We all glanced over the bar where we sit to look at Kiki still sitting at the table completely oblivious to what was going on and singing along to the colors of the rainbow song on mickey mouse.

I glance back over to my brother still rubbing his head and smirk because his plan backfired.

My mom noticed this and slapped me again "Owww, I ain't do nothing" I said rubbing my head that shit hurt. She rolled her eyes and responded with "yeah right, I'm so tired of yall" she started to walk away.

Malik turned towards me and stuck the middle finger at me I took this as the perfect opportunity. "Oooh" I said, "Malik bring your black ass on before I turn both y'all pink" she yelled from the other room. Malik sucked his teeth and walked away I heard a smack and my mom say "don't suck your teeth at me little boy". I chuckled and went to the fridge and grabbed a banana and some milk and walked to my room to get ready for work.
