In My Mind

Chapter 15

Aron

I opened the door and pointed the gun dead at..... Dashia's head she dropped the bags that was in her hand and froze in fear. I quickly put my gun on safety and apologized for pointing a gun at her. it took her a minute to register what happened cause a few seconds after I apologized she started snapping on me, pointing her finger in my face, pushing me and cussing me out. after two minutes of her being rachet she walked to the living room and sat on the couch and stared blankly at the wall.

she is such a drama queen, she act like I was finna kill her or something like Damn all that is unnecessary, but when it comes down to her nothing is. But I love her. Dashia is the only person in my family person in my family that doesn't treat me like I'm a savour. She still is mean as hell, she still talks reckless to me and gives me tough love. and I do the Same with her.

I grabbed the four heavy she dropped at the door step and brought them in the house and closed the door behind me.

I walked in the living room and sat next to Dashia, she glared at me. "So where's yo new Bitch " she asked. I twisted up my face and looked at her like she lost her fucking mind cause in my eyes she did. "Aye you got her fucked up don't call her No Bitch" I said defending Tasija. "Whateva, Zay ain't here is he " she said rolling her eyes and changing the subject. "Naa he ain't here, Why you want me to call him " I said " Hell No fuck him " she said getting up and putting her hands on her hips

Tasija was walking down the stairs, Dashia turned around and froze. Tasija froze, to tears were rolling down of there faces. I stood there and looked between her and Dashia , I was so lost.

Dashia

When I seen Tasija standing there I couldn't help but stare, my best friend from elementary school that I thought was dead is standing in front of me looking beat up. I looked at Aron and got heated, I know he didn't have a momma and all but that don't mean to take it out on Tasija.

"what did you do, Bitch granny taught you bet- " Aron cut me off "I didn't do that to her, Nigga what I look like fucking her up like that " he said yelling at me. I walked up to him and stood on my tip toes trying to get on his level which I failed at I'm only 5'2 trying to get in his face. "Well if you didn't who did " I challenged him. "Devin did " Tasija spoke up but she talked in a low and ashamed tone her head was hung low. my heart melted, I knew her and Devin ran away together but everybody said they died. I was only 13 at the time so I believed everybody cause I didn't know any better. I looked at Aron he was looking at Tasija with love in his eyes then I looked at Tasija she was slowly walking down the stairs crying . I met her at the bottom stairs and pulled her in my arms we both broke down and cried.

"I thought you were dead, I didn't think in a million years that I would see you again " I said while sobbing. " I didn't think I would ever see you again Devin took me out of town and we just came back " she said pulling back. "what happened " I couldn't resist the question I rubbed my hands over her face she winced out in pain when I touched her swollen jaw, she grabbed my hand and pulled away from her face and looked to the floor. Aron cleared his throat to get our attention "here's some stuff for you if you wanna..... you know " he said holding out the bags to Tasija she smiled and took the bags from him.

We watched her climb up through stairs , as soon as we heard a door close. We gave each other a look saying we need to talk, he motioned towards the couch and we sat down.

He explained How they met and what she told him, and How he found her. I shred some tears cause I always hated Devin cause he took my best friend from me. I explained How I knew her and How we went to middle school together and I told him a little more about Devin's Bitch ass.

"And another thing Tasija isn't my girl, but I do have feelings for her " he said to me. I looked in his eyes and saw my baby cousin coming back.

"You love her don't you " I asked. he looked at me then the floor "Naa I don't think it's like that plus I don't think she ready for a Nigga like me " I smacked my lips at his stupid ass statement he sounded just like Isaiah, I mugged then pushed his head. "Nigga shut yo dumb ass up " I said laughing he laughed too. I really think Tasija is gonna bring my sweet little cousin back, if anyone could change a Hood Nigga it would be her. "so How much I owe you " Aron said standing up " you don't owe me nothing, I used the money Isaiah be sending " I said standing up, I started walking up the stairs. "Where you going "Aron questioned me. "Too pick out a room, what you thought you was gonna have my best friend in this house wit two stupid niggas hell Naa " I said rolling my neck at him. "Well you might wanna rethink that if you think you getting yo own room cause the other guest room is the fuck room that's where Zay fuck all his hoes " he said scratching the back of his head. I twisted my face up in disgust, then shrugged my shoulders cause I couldn't get mad No matter How much I want to be. "That's fine I'll just sleep in his room and he can take that nasty ass room " I said walking back down the stairs and flicking my hand in disgust. Aron laughed and shook his head at me, I shrugged it off and went to Isaiah's room. As soon as I walked in the sweet smell of Polo Cologne hit me. I smiled and walked in his room and kicked off my shoes before climbed in his bed and under his sheets. It was so soft, the perfect bed for an after school and shopping trip nap. I gladly let a sleepy feeling take over and differed off to sleep.
