I sat on the couch in my living room scrolling through the channels as I watched my mother leave out of here slamming the door behind her. I'd only been out for one day before shit went left with the family. My seventeen year old sister had just came home from spending six months with our grandmother out of town due to her behavior after I had left and the crazy thing was she popped up with a one month old son, her son. I knew my father had suspicions that she was pregnant before but she'd lied and told them she wasn't and our grandmother went along with it. I was pissed, hurt the most but wasn't nobody about to make my little sister feel low of herself and I wasn't allowing it.

"Jerome I-"

"Just go to the room Sonja, I'll talk to you later" I cut her off knowing my attitude it wasn't best I talked to her right now but I knew eventually I had too.

"Yes Sir" She sighed and grabbed her sons cars seat and did as told. "I'm sorry if I disappointed you. I thank you for letting us stay here and I'm glad you're home, I knew you were innocent" She finally made her way to the back.

I sighed. I was glad that my dad kept the payments up on my house so I didn't have to deal with being in the house with him and my mother. My sister had heard I was home and she'd flew herself out as soon as she could and made it here this morning, my mother brung her right to me going off because she had a baby. I was all for her being a mother up until she started to call her hoes, bitches and saying how her baby would have no guidance etc. That's where I stepped in because there was a difference between being a mother, and being spiteful. She went as far as putting her out of her home for good, and Sonja looked at me with fear and her face wet with tears, that broke me right there.

Although I could be upset with her, I would never call her out of her name because of a choice she made. My mother always had a problem with the shit that came out of her mouth and my father had a issue with allowing her to say anything she wanted without stepping in, but today he went completely off on her for her actions and the fact she hadn't acknowledged me being innocent, all she'd said was good for me and left it at that. No hug, apology or anything. It bothered me but I wasn't going to force anything.

After cooling off for about thirty more minutes I went into the room that was now my sisters and knocked before walking in. She sat there feeding Amir with a smile on her face.
