"Can we eat now my stomach is turning inside out"

Silas screamed from the couch. Everyone turned back at him with a look of disgust. He ate all the sweet rolls that was put on the table two minutes ago.

I'm not gonna lie those sweet rolls taste better when you squish it.

I couldn't even experience the taste because Silas ate them all. All thirty of them. Once he realised everyone didn't like him he be quiet and hang his head low.

I went up to him and sat down on his lap. Even though I didn't like him right now I still love him. I was on him for like two seconds before my dad pulled me up by my shirt.

Silas took that as his opportunity to run away. My dad already had a talk with him. He's going to kill Silas.

"Where's your boyfriend?"

My aunt asked as she scanned the room. Silas was coming to me but he saw I was talking to her. He slowly backed away and went in the corner where he was safe from her sewer breathe.

"Where's your edges?"

I heard my mom snicker from behind me. She started whistling and looking around the room once she realised that everyone heard her.

"You're really rude. And that outfit isn't appropriate for a family gathering"

"Neither is your lace front"

I said. My mom busted out in fits of daughter when I said that. She occasional let out snorts as she clutched her stomach on the couch.

I wasn't even wearing anything inappropriate. It was just some ripped shorts and a t shirt. She was wearing a skirt that was two inches long with a crop top and stripper heels.

If you want to feel attacked wear ripped jeans to a family gathering.

She's just trying to seduce some men. I hope she knows that everyone here excerpt for Silas is family. She's been doing some Alabama relative dating shit for a while now.

"Well I heard you're failing math"

"Well I heard you never graduated"

"I have my G.E.D"

"At least I know my D.A.D"

She gasped with her eyes wide open. My grandma looked at her and laughed. She knows damn well I'm right. My grandma is married to my mom's dad. My aunt's dad is no where to be found.

I picked up my wine and took a sip. She was just standing in front of me looking stuck.

"When I was you're age I wasn't drinking"

"You can't drink when we're pregnant"

"How do you know that? Who's spreading my business around like that"

She screamed at everyone. In my family there's no secrets. I've been hearing tea about everyone in my family since I was eight. My mom talks very loud and my dad is even louder since he's haitian.

With her sudden outburst my grandma gave her the look. She gave her what my dad called 'the haitian side eye'.

"Can we please eat now?"

We all turned around to the person. Silas put his hand up and backed away. I know he didn't say that because he doesn't sound like that.

The person who said it was a complete stranger. I haven't seen that guy before in my life. This happens every year. Somebody from the street smells the food in our house and decides to walk in.
