Miami Heat

Chapter Nine: Busted

I nervously opened the door. The fist thing I saw was my dad. He was pacing like a madman. He turned to me, fuming. "WHERE THE FUCK WERE YOU?!", he bellowed.

"Out."

"Out, huh?! Where?!"

"Sele-"

"Save those damn lies! I called her last night asking if you were there. She said you weren't. Don't make me ask again!"

Zakee ran downstairs. "Ahaaa! You're back! Wonder where you were..", he snickered. 

"Shut the fuc-"

"You still didn't answer my damn question!", my dad was taking his belt off.

"Umm, sir. We can leave if you want.", one of the two police officers butted in. "Oh, yes! Sorry about this. You may leave, and thanks for your help!", my dad said, joyfully. When the officers left, my dad's facial expression went back to fuming.

"Fine! I was out on a date, with a dude from school!", I blurted out.

"And this is the time that you wanted to come back?!", my dad yelled,"what would your mother think?" My dad stopped, realizing what he had just said. Zakee looked down.

All of a sudden, tears welled in my eyes. "Do NOT bring her into this!", I yelled. I ran upstairs, and slammed the door shut.

《LATER THAT DAY》

"Ebony, 'yo papi called last night", Selenia said. "Yea, umm..I was out.", I said, walking to my locker. She followed me, crossing her arms.

"Out with Cairo, huh?"

I nodded, taking my books. Selenia sighed. "Was it fun? Did y'all...get it in?"

"Okay, enough questi-"

"He knocked that pussy out like fight night, ain't it? I noticed the way you was walking. 'Yo pussy done died, 'yo ass can't even walk right!", she laughed. I sucked my teeth. "Keep 'yo voice low!", I snapped. Selenia raised her arms in surrender. "Alright, alright, chica. But, there he go, now." I turned around, and Cairo was coming straight for us. All the memories from last night made my heart ache. "Hey", he hugged me, and gave my neck a kiss. Selenia ooo'ed. Cairo went up to her. "So, we coo?", he asked. "Yea, yea we coo." Selenia cracked a smile. "But if you ever hurt her!...", she went on and on about how she was gonna kill him, and get her cousins, brothers, and uncles on him. The bell rang. My phone vibrated. It was a text from my dad

Dad: You think that convo at the house was over? Wait til after school! You gettin' the beating of 'yo life!

I gulped, and got to class.

《EVEN LATER THAT DAY..》

I was sitting in the passenger seat of Selenia's car. "Dad gone beat yo ass, when we get home!", Zakee snickered. "Shut up", I growled. "What you did?!", Selenia asked. "She came home at like six in the morning!" Zakee exclaimed. Selenia gasped. "Damn, chica! You gone get it today!"

I rolled my eyes. Selenia stopped right in front of my house. I gulped, and got out the car. "Imma pray for you!", she yelled after me, and drove off. "It ain't gone be that bad, now", Zakee snickered. "Shut the fuck up!", I punched him in the chest. I took a deep breath, and opened the house door.

My dad was waiting for me, with his big brown belt. Zakee ran up the stairs so quick. I dropped my things on the ground.

"Let's get this over with!", I sighed. "I'm going to ask you again!", my dad folded the belt,"where were you last night?"

"On a date with a boy.", I answered.

"What made you come so damn early, the next day?!", my dad's voice rose. I could hear Zakee dying of laugher upstairs. I shrugged.

WHAM!!

My dad had whipped my thigh with the belt. I cursed under my breath. He lunged at me, I dodged.

"I ain't playin' witchu!!", he bellowed. "Please! I'll tell you, if you stop!", I pleaded. My dad scrunched his face. "STOP?! Nah, I'm the adult here! You not the one telling ME what the fuck to do!", he whipped me until I couldn't even stand.

|Zakee POV|

I couldn't stop laughing at Ebony's ass getting beat! She gone need Jesus on her side for this one, cuz our dad sure hits hard! "Stop, damn!", I heard Ebony yell. I laughed so hard, I fell down the stairs. The whooping stopped. I saw Ebony, holding on to the couch, for protection. I got up real quick. "Y'all go back to what y'all was doin'.", I ran back up the stairs, and entered my room. My phone was vibrating.

It was Selenia.

Z: Wassup, fat ass.

S: *fake laugh* haha! Real fucking funny, nigga.

Z : Why you wanted to call me?

S: *sighs* Man, imma be straight up. Nigga, I like you!

Z: Not now. Ebony gettin' a beatin'.

《AN HOUR LATER》

|Ebony POV|

"I think you learned your lesson!", my dad was out of breath from whooping me. I ain't no damn child, why am I still getting these shits?!

"Yea.", I walked upstairs. I decided to go check up on Zakee, since his ass was laughing the whole damn time. "Zakee?", I knocked on his door. He didn't answer. I started walking to my room, when I heard a slight bang and a moan coming from his room. I swung the door open. That's when I saw Zakee, banging the hell out of Selenia!

"WHAT THE FUCK?!", my jaw dropped. Zakee jumped, and Selenia covered her body with the covers. "Oh goodness, lemme leave y'all", I covered my eyes. "You may proceed."
