It's the next day and I am totally hungover. Ricky invited homies over last night to have some drinks to get all my problems off my head but it did not work. As much as I tried playing bad and acting like I don't give a fuck about Melissa, Clumsy and Diablo, it doesn't work. I have them stuck in my head just wanting to call them but the universe is as big as my pride so unless they don't speak to me first I will not.
Anyways, it's around 5pm and Ricky called me wanting me to go over to the trap to meet a new member. I really wanted to stay home tonight but I guess its a very important member I gotta meet.
"Hey you're heading out?" I hear Geo's voice.
I look at him through the mirror since I'm finishing doing my makeup. If I'm going out I should at least try to look decent.
"Wow I thought we weren't on speaking terms either," I say sarcastically since I haven't seen him a lot lately.
He rolls his eyes as he comes in and sits on the edge of my bed. "you can be a dumbass sometimes and piss me off but you know I always got your back."
"Do you?"
"Roni shut the fuck up. You know I do," he says getting serious.
I stay quiet and focus back on highlighting.
"You know, you don't need all that shit on your face to look beautiful right?" his comment was enough to know something was up.
I slammed the brush on the vanity and turn to face him.
"Okay Geo, what's going on? What do you want? Why are you acting weird?" I snap not really in the mood to deal with shit.
He raises an eyebrow, "this is why brothers can never compliment their sisters. They can never take one."
"Bullshit, you want something. Now what is it?"
He sighs, "I need you to go see Melissa."
Everytime I hear her fucking name I swear it's a slap on the face. Yes, I still care about her but everytime someone mentions her I'm starting to care less. .
My blood boils in anger. Like I said, every single person takes her side. Even my own blood is turning on me.
I point at his face, "bring up Melissa one more fucking time and I swear I'll cut your tongue out. I'm fucking tired of that bitch! I just- even her name makes me want to throw up. She's all everyone talks about. Instead of telling me to go apologize, you should work as her bodyguard because if I see her in the streets I'm killing that bitch!"
He gives my arm a push, "hey chill out!"
I push him off, "no don't tell me to chill out!"
"Veronica I'm not telling you to apologize!" he yells.
"Then why do you want me to see her!"
He sighs, "look, I haven't kicked it with any of them since the fight so I don't know what exactly is going on but I bumped into Clumsy this morning and he said something about you being in danger. He couldn't really talk he looked uneasy but he practically begged me to convince you to see Melissa asap."
I frown in confusion. Me in danger? From what? From who? That's exactly what I asked him.
He shrugs, "I don't know but I think you should go. I'm worried for you Roni."
I bite my lip, "no, no bro, don't worry about me. My life is always on the line with the lifestyle I live by. I'm sure Clumsy heard something about MS and is overreacting."
"No Roni! I have a bad feeling about this. I saw him at Walgreens with a bunch of medical supplies and shit-" he rubs his face in frustration, "if you don't go talk to her then I will just to be sure."
