Violence 101

Tension

DJ:

I get home and park my car into the garage. Once i walk into the house, I see NJ and Bennie on the couch. I walk over and look at them. NJ gives me a weird look.

NJ: Do you need something?

Me: Why is he here?

NJ: Because i asked him to come over. Is that a problem?

Me: Well does my mother even know?

NJ: No she doesnt but she's gonna be here in a few minutes anyway.

Bennie: Look if I'm not supposed to be here then I can leave.

Me: The door's right there!

NJ: You know what I'm calling you're acting like an ass.

She goes into the kitchen and I follow her. I see the phone up to her ear. She seemed pretty upset. I go over to here and grab her arm. She pulls away from me.

NJ: What?!

Me: Look I'm sorry okay? You know how i am when he's around.

NJ: Well you're gonna have to get over it because he's my boyfriend now.

Me: Are you serious right now?

NJ: Yes I am. You never told me you wanted to date me and we never were together. Don't act fucking dumb DJ.

Me: So expressing how i feel towards you is being dumb. Man you just like all them other dumb hoes.

NJ: What the fuck you just call me?! I don't play that DJ and you know it.

Me: Well I'm playing. You fucked with my feelings Natasha. I started to fall in love with you. I thought you knew that. Did you think all that hugging you and holding you was just playing around?!

NJ: Yeah I did.

Me: You know what Natasha..... fuck you! Fuck Bennie! I wish my mom never took you in. You fucking deserved what your dad did to you.

She drops the phone and looks at me with tears in her eyes. I realize what I just said and I sigh.

Me: NJ I'm so sorry. I didn't mean that.

NJ: I you didnt you wouldn't have said it. I fucking hate you DJ.

She walks out crying. I run my fingers through my hair. Bennie comes into the kitchen looking pissed off.

Bennie: What the fuck is wrong with you nigga?! Why the hell would you say that shit?

Me: Get the fuck out my face bitch before i cut yo ass.

Bennie: You know what she's been through and you say that shit? Now she's crying non-stop because of you. You're the bitch here not me. I actually know what to say to a girl you fucking dickhead.

I punch him in the face. We both fall to the floor throwing punches at each other. Mom runs in and pulls me off of him. She pushes me into the sink.

Mom: What the fuck is wrong with you boy?!

Me: He over here saying shit to me like he my fucking dad or something.

Bennie: If you never made Natasha cry then I wouldn't have swung on yo ass.

I try to jump at him but mom holds me back. She fills a glass up with water and pulls out my pills from the cabinet. I sigh and take it. Calming down for the moment. I walk out and go to my room. I sit on my bed and get my wash towel. Wiping the blood from my nose and lip. Mom comes in and slams the door.
