YOU

Christine

I was at home chilling. When my mom walked in the house with a female.

"Hey mom, who's this" I said referring to the lady.

"I don't know, you tell me" my mom said looking at me.

"Que" I said.  (What)

"I'm Jamie jahkings mom, you were at my house yesterday" she said looking at me.

"I was" I asked.

"Christine" my mom says closing her eyes.

"Okay" I say.

"Me and jahking got into an argument last night and he said he got a girl pregnant" she said and my heart completely dropped.

"And that girl is you" she said calmly.

"Mom I-" I said to my mother but she had tears in her eyes.

"Go" she said.

"What do you mean go" I ask.

"Go somewhere else, get out of my face" she said.

I just got up and ran upstairs.

I started packing stuff 2 nights worth of clothes, I know my mom isn't gonna be mad that long. I was so irritated but mostly with myself. I knew it was gonna come to this if I didn't tell my mom.

"Where you going" Christian asked.

I ignored him.

I walked downstairs and out of the house.

I started walking, I didn't know where to, but I was just walking.

After a while it started getting dark and it was raining.

"Fuck" I said walking faster.

I finally made it to Elijah's house. I know he's mad at me but maybe we can work it out.

I knock on the door and he opens.

"What" he said looking at me.

"Can I come in" he looked at me and then looked down at my stomach. And he let me in.

We went upstairs to his room.

And it was so silent.

"Babe" I say looking at him.

He just stares into my soul.

"I'm sorry I lied to you" I said kinda sad.
"I didn't tell anyone the only people who knew was my brother" I continued.

"I don't care about that" he says rubbing his eyes. "I'm pissed that you cheated" he says.

"I won't do it again" I said hugging him crying.

"I don't care what you do" he says pushing me off of him.

"You can sleep here tonight but you have to be gone tomorrow" he looks me dead in my eyes.

"So we really done" I asked.

He just nods as if he was unsure.

I started balling my eyes out. I got up grabbing my bag running down the stairs. He followed me.

"Stooop" he dragged out tryna grab me.

"Get the fuck off of me Elijah." I pull away from him.

"Fine go. Have fun in the rain" he pushed me outside closing the door.

I heard it lock and the light went off in the living room.

What is my problem. Or maybe— maybe I am the problem.
