The easiest thing is to react. The second easiest is to respond. But the hardest is to initiate.
#Chapter27
Two weeks later
Hennessy head laid on Treasures lap as they listened to R&B and everything else that's sad.
"I don't get why you sad, you broke up with him" Treasure says rolling her eyes. She thought Hennessy was stupid as hell for letting Myles go, but that was Hennessy.
"Because I feel bad. He was so amazing and I'm sure I broke his heart"
"Man fuck that our bestfriend in the fucking hospital and we don't know if she gone make it or not Damn fuck a damn nigga" Yasmeen says walking into Treasures room with Seandrea.
"You right, but damn don't get mad at us because yo nigga cheat on you" Seandrea says causing Yasmeen to smack her teeth.
"You always tryna throw some shit up in somebody face, you ain't the one to talk considering you believe this nigga finna treat you right" Yasmeen says
"He is though" Seandrea shot back.
"You know what, Seandrea get the fuck out of my house" Treasure says pointing towards the room door.
"Bet, bye" Seandrea says walking out of the room. Once they heard the front door close they all sighed.
Seandrea thought she was the shit just because Kentrell was treating her better. She was the one who thought everything was about her.
"I miss her y'all" Hennessy says and she started crying all over again. Yasmeen sat next to her and rubbed her back.
"We do to, but we got to be strong , we'll put this one in God's hand" Treasure says. Hennessy nodded and wiped her tears. If she lost Essence she'd lose herself.
Although she had the other girls Essence was the closest to her.
Treasure phone dinging caused them to all look at her. She picked it up and looked at it.
August🤫: I need you.
Treasure: on my way
~~~~FAKE SMILES~~~~
Treasure opened the door to August house and walked in. After closing the door , she made her way upstairs to August room.
His room lights was off, but the sun was setting and his balcony door was wide open letting the little light into the room.
She saw his figure on his bed he was sitting up staring straight ahead with a couple of tears rolling down his face.
Treasure took of her shoes and sat down next to him. He didn't even look at her.
"I need ha Tre" August says lowly, from the tone of his voice you could tell he'd been crying.
Treasure pulled him in a hug, letting him cry on her shoulder.
"I can't I can't be okay while ma sister's suffering in a coma"
"But you were okay when she was suffering while she wasn't in a coma, see baby we missed that, we didn't pay attention to her and what she was going through" Treasure says. August sat up and wiped his tears, shaking his head.
"No, no I knew something was wrong with her but I just— I lost ma brother already I can't loose ma sister" August says.
"Let's get your mind off of death, okay so why and when did you get involved with the fast life?" Treasure asked. August pulled her closer to him.
"My dad was da king pin himself , and of course he wanted nothing more than for his son ta follow into his footsteps. I thought why not? Because at da time I didn't know da price of being in da game. I was 15 and my dad told me if I wanted to be in da game I had ta kill somebody, of course I was scared but I did it"
"How was that like? Killing somebody?"
"Well, my dad came ta ma room and told me it was time and told me to put on all black I did what I was told. We pulled up to a nice house, 2 story maybe, when we get in the house my dad hands me a gun and say when I tell ya to shoot do it. We go in there it's three people in the living room and he shot them, I was shook honestly. Then we went through da house searching fa somebody else. And we found a dude, I felt somebody looking at me and when I looked up, god I will never forget the look in that lil girls eyes, I killed the dude , it took me a while to get over it , but i eventually did"
"Y'all didn't kill the girl?" Treasure stared at him in deep thought. August shook his head.
"I saw ha but I didn't tell pops"
"August.... you should've killed her, save her the trouble of dealing with grief, living without her family, did you not think of how she'd grow up? She had to do it alone. Her seeing her brother get shot, you thought she'd wanna live with that?!"
"Baybeh how you— why are you crying?"
"Because I'm that little girl"
