Me and Shanique just got done putting her stuff up, were watching FROZEN, I absolutely love that movie. I'm over singing along, and Shanique mugging me like she don't like it. She must be CRAZY.

"Or ride the bike down the haaaalllllll" I sang along.

" Ok that's it, I've had enough" she said getting up to change the movie.

I pouted, but this is like 5th time watching this part I kept rewinding it. She put in the movie the HOUSE ON THE CORNER.

" Hell no, I get nightmares." I said .

She just laughed.

BEEPBOOP.

I looked down at my phone, and a unknown number texted me.

- Yo this the boy who saved you ! Guilty Charge haha

I smiled

- I said thank you.

- but what's your name?

- Chanel

- That's a beautiful name, for a beautiful girl.

-lol get yo flirting game up

- lol but I'm Jace, but they call me King in the streets, don't call me by my real name.

I scoffed

- you boys, and these streets gone get y'all in a casket one day.

- I actually need the money for my sister, and my mother

I felt bad for saying that.

- I'm sorry, but why make illegal money.

- it's fast money

I understood.

- Oh

- yea, what you doing beautiful

- nothing major

- oh I have nothing to do.

- poor baby.

- I was wondering if I could take you to the fair tomorrow.

- Uhm sure I'll be ready at 5

- ok.

- I gotta go handle sum so Goodnight :*

I knew what he meant

- Alright

I locked my phone and saw Shanique so focused on the movie, eating popcorn. I laughed her expression as the killer popped up on the blondie.

" That bitch stupid , gone get a butterknife , and it was clearly a Sharp ass knife next to it !" I was cracking up, this why I never go to the movies with her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

" Why y'all got this extra room " Shanique asked.

I shrugged my shoulders, I never asked my mom about it, I never paid attention to the room. It was baby blue walls with white splashes and wooden floors.

I went in my moms room, and she was laying down reading a book.

" Mami?"

" yes "

" Uhm why do we have that extra, it's only us two ." I asked.

She took deep breathe and motioned me to come sit on the bed. She took my hand started rubbing my palm as if she's been hiding something from me.

" You had a twin brother, but he died right after you, he was pushed out, he immediately started crying, then stopped." she paused. " the doctors called it unusual for a newborn to do that. He had no pulse, his heart wasn't beating" she cried, I hugged her tightly, as a few tears slipped from my eyes.

I could've had a brother.
