Mirage (A Chris Brown Story)

Chapter One.

Arielle’s P.o.v.

“Arielle shut her the fuck up!” My bitch of a foster mother tells me as my little sister continues to cry. I rush over to Amiyah and carry her upstairs to the small room that we have to share.

“MiMi,” I softly tell her, “how about we go to the mall today. Huh? Would you like that?”

Her small face turns into a bright smile. For some reason she loves the mall which to me doesn’t make since considering the fact that she usually hates being around a large group of people.

“Yes yes! The mall!” the two year old happily shouts jumping up and down.

“That’s what I thought now let’s just put some clothes on ya lil mama!”

I walk over to her small dresser and pick one of the really cute outfits that I bought for her a few months ago with the money I make down at the diner.

I turn around to look at her, “What about this outfit?” I ask even though I already know that she’ll love it.

“Ooo! I like that one Ellie!” she cheers clapping her hands together from where she is perched on our bed.

I quickly put the outfit on her and pick out one for myself. I throw on some grey sweatpants and my blue ‘I’m tha top bitch’ shirt that leaves my stomach out so everyone could see my belly ring.

“Alright Baby Girl let’s go before Ramon gets here,” I urge her grabbing my cheap as phone and hauling her out of the house without speaking another word to Sharon.

“Why Sharon love him?” she asks me her big brown eyes growing wide with curiosity.

“I don’t think Sharon does love him sweetie,” I tell her picking her up off the ground and tossing her onto my back so that she doesn’t get tired of walking.

“That stupid.”

I laugh softly at her reply, “Yeah I know.”

And to tell the truth is is stupid. Ramon is terrified of commitments so he expects to fuck Sharon fuck someone over here and fuck someone over there. Sharon tries to act like she is cool with it but you can tell by the look in her eyes that it tears her up inside. They’ve been together about three years now (about how long MiMi and I have been living here) and Sharon has taken him back countless times.

“Can I have the number two and a large coke and fry please?” I ask the guy at the counter. MiMi and I are currently in the food court and let me tell you we are hungry as hell!

“And what would the little lady like?” he questions looking down at MiMi.

She holds her head up high as she tries to see over the counter and says clearly, “Chicken nuggets and milk.”

“No actually make that a fruit punch,” I tell the guy before looking down at her, “You know you can’t have milk!”

“Why?” she pouts.

“Because you are allergic.”

“Allergic?”

“Yes it means you will get really really sick.”

“Oh.”

The last time Ramon gave her milk she had bumps and hives all over her body we were in the E.R. all night!

“Here you go miss,” he says handing us our food and we turn around ready to head over to a nearby table but the guy standing behind us in line catches my attention. Damn he’s fine! When he sees me looking at him his brown eyes sparkle with amusement, and I notice that his sexy ass lips are moving and my lips part slightly as I watch them move not even processing what is coming out of them.

“So are you gonna answer my question?” he asks bringing me back to reality.

“Hmm?” I stammer stupidly.

“I said do you like what you see?” he smirks at me.

This most definitely snaps my brain out of whatever fog it was and I swiftly reply, “Whatever, get over yourself buddy boy because you aint that fine.” Who the hell am I kidding? This guy is that fine and then some!

“So you admit that you think that I am at least a little fine?” I can practically see his ego grow.

Just as I am about to reply this grumpy lady a few places behind him in line says something instead, “Just give him your number or something and move the fuck on please! I wanna get my damn burger before my titties start to sag if that’s alright with you!”

A blush comes over my cheeks as I realize that we are holding up the line and there are a dozen or so people listening to our conversation. I mutter an apology before stepping out of line and dragging MiMi to the table that we were initially heading to in the first place.

“Wait up a sec!” a voice shouts behind us and I see the guy that I was just talking to running to catch up with us.

“Damn little lady slow down,” he says when he finally catches up with us.

“Is there something I can do for you or are you just gonna keep on getting on my nerves!” I snap at him.

“I just wanted to introduce myself no need to get all worked up! Calm down. I’m Chris by the way.”

I take a deep breath before I reply to him, deciding that he is probably right and that I should just cool it, “Arielle.”

“Ellie can I eat now?” MiMi says reminding me that she is still here and that I haven’t given her her food yet.

“Oh yeah. I’m sorry baby girl here you go.” I hand her her chicken nuggets with some ketchup and her drink.

“Thank you!”

“And who is this pretty little thing?” Chris asks his eyes never leaving MiMi’s.

“I’m Amiyah but Ellie calls me MiMi,” she exclaims surprising me. MiMi usually isn’t good with strangers but I guess she like Chris although I guess I can see why, he is annoying as hell but there is something about him that you can’t help but be drown to.

“Well that’s a nice name,” he tells her a beautiful heart stopping smile blossoming onto his face.

“Thank you, “she says before turning to me, “Ellie I like him.”

This causes Chris to laugh lightly. I think I like him too MiMi.
