Brunch Continued.......
DAVID "KING" EAST
I watched as mother stared at me in shock, before rolling her eyes and taking a sip of her water. In all my 31 years I had never once questioned or wanted to kno my sperm donor, but something wasn't sitting right with me since that night at dinner with Ri'. It's been eating me up and the only person who had the answers was sitting right across from me.
Soon our waitress returned ready to take our orders.
I didn't have an appetite at all.
I dragged my left hand down my face slowly as my mother twist her lips into a frown. She knew I had questions but I was trying to come up with the right words to ask.
"So what do you wanna kno Amir?(calling me by my middle name) HUH? that your father was an ain't shit ass nigga! WHAT! or that he left us? HUH! because I RAISED YOU NOT THAT PIECE OF SHIT!!"
" by now we were the restaurants main show and I was pissed! This is not what I wanted and I honesty had never heard my moms speak like this... Something was up and I was gonna get to the bottom of they fucked up love story.
"Ma' chill out... ain't no need to be yelling.."
I reached across the table rubbing the back of her hands as she shook uncontrollably. She wouldn't even look at me as she held her head down looking into her lap.
"Ma?... I'm sorry.. I - I didnt want to upset you.. its just that.. that I think I ran into him a few-
"RAN IT TO DANIEL!! what do you mean ran into him, why you just telling me this?!!!"
I swallowed the lump in my throat as my moms rage began to simmer into a mean mug identical to my own.
'That nigga got some nerve! where you saw him Amir?"
"I-ah me and Riley went out for dinner a few weeks ago and he payed for our meal-"
"just like his ass showing off... continue" my mom expressed as she rolled her eyes, waiting for the waitiress to bring our food out.
"like I was saying he paid for our food, I was heated so I ran after him... out the restaurant"
"YOU DID WHAT!!!"
I think I shrinked in my chair a few inches as my mother yelled at me some more.
"Ma- I needed to know if it was him! I deserve to look that coward in the face and show him I made it with out him! "
I choked on my words as I tried to gather my thoughts
"Ma.. he said you pushed him away... is... is that true?"
"Mijo is way more complicated than that, I was 14 and Daniel was going on 18 and your Uncle's bestfriend. No one... not your grandfather or Uncle wanted us together... but I thought I new best and I really did love Daniel and I thought he loved me too..."
