Christines POV
I was literally running down the street. I hated stealing but I had to do it to feed my brother and me. I slowed down so I wouldn't look suspicious. As I looked far ahead I saw Q and his boys at the end of the side walk shit. I casually walked right passed them trying not make eye contact I shifted the bag over my shoulder looking down at the ground.
"Aye wassup ma"?!? yelled Q. "Why you in such a hurry?!? you know you want this D!!!" They all busted out into laughter. I couldn't get what was so funny. "Yo she bad" one of his boys said. "Forreal I been tryna hit that for a long ass time but she'll come around" I heard Q say. I finally reached the apartment complex I shaked my head as i saw my ghetto ass neighborhood. Little girls tryna grow up to fast, lil boys tryna be young thugs, Niggas smokin loud, and old ladies gossipin. I opened the door and went into Chris room he was balled up in a corner crying. I dropped my bag on the floor and rushed to his side to figure out what was wrong. "Chris what's wrong"? I asked confused.
"Mama (sniff) was beating (sniff) on me" he began to burst into tears gasping for air. I felt so bad I should have spoken him with me but I couldn't let him see me steal.
"Its gone be alright" I said hugging him tightly. I tried to make myself believe that more that I wanted him to. "Go to my room and watch t.v while I cook dinner" I said getting up.
"Ok" he said wiping the tears from his little face. I picked up my bag and headed down the hall I passes my mother's room. I slightly peeked in and saw she wasn't there Good I thought. I went to the kitchen and pulled out tomato sauce, pasta, meat, and other ingredients for the spaghetti I made sure I bought enough to last at least the week, so I didn't have to steal anytime soon.

As soon as we finish ate I washed our plates and told Chris to go wash up. I heard laughing from my mother's room and knew one of her niggas was here. I leaned against the door eavesdropping. "Mhmm that's right baby I'm yours" said my mother. They both giggled "You ready for papi.andaconda"?? the nigga said. "Hell yea comere daddy"!! all I heard was laughter and kissing. gross.
After Chris was done I went in and took a shower letting the warm water soothe my skin, I had a long day and I needed this and today we was lucky cause our water be cutting off because my dead beat mother don't pay the bills. I got out and went to my room, changed into my pj's and went to Chris room.
"Love you good night make sure you get some good sleep" I said kissing Chris forhead.
"Christine"? asked Chris with those big Brown eyes. "Yes"?
"Is things ever going to get better"'? He asked I didn't know exactly how to answer this question so I simply said.
"Only God knows now go to sleep big head love you" I said.
" Love you too"
*********
We aint have no alarm clock but I knew it was time to get ready for school. I trudged over to Chris room, I shook chris "Get up! time fo school"! I said.
"Mmm Ion wanna go" he groaned. "Chris!! You betta getcho ass up right now I ain't playin witchu" I said sternly he knew not to try me early in the morning. "Now go brush yo teeth" I said pushing him into the bathroom. He groaned , I went into my room to pick out something to wear. I ain't have much nor did I feel like dressin up so I got a plain white T , dark blue jeans, and some dirty white air forces. That will do it, After Chris was done I went Into the bathroom and did my hygiene. I put on lotion and put on my clothes. I put on a necklace daddy gave me for my 12 birthday I know it's been awhile and I'm 18 but it still fit like he just gave it to me yesterday. I went into the bathroom and did my hair it was still straight since I straightened it 2 days ago but I still decided to straighten it again one more time. I looked In the mirror to approve my look I had jet black hair that reached in the middle of my black, I was the color of milkchoclate with a dash of Carmel and dark chocolate (brown skin), I had brown eyes, perfect size boobs, and a real big booty. I put on my momas solve hoops and was finished. "Chris you ready"? I asked standing in the door way of Chris room. "Yea" he grabbed he stuff and went to the kitchen. "Go get a bowl of cereal " I said he nodded his head. "You ain't gone eat"? he asked. "Naah I'm sure I'll be fine" he shrugged. "Hurry up we aint got much time". He gave a disgusted look "what"?. "The milk rotten" he said. I sighed I grabbed the bowl and threw the cereal away. "Come on let's go eat break fast at yo school".
