ALONE

ALONE - Part 10

  We drove all the way back into town. Instead of going straight to Jah's mom's house, we stopped at a diner that was open 24 hours and went inside. We sat down at a booth and decided what we were gonna do.

"Soooo," ski started to say. "Whatchu think we should do now?"

"First, we have to take the bike back." Jah said looking over at ski.

"And what's so hard about that??" Ski asked him.

"Oh nothing really, just trying to sneak the bike in without making noise and waking up my entire family," Jah said rolling his eyes.

I laughed and Ski called the waitress over.

"Excuse me, can i have a large chocolate shake?" he asked. "And a large plate of fries." he continued looking up from the menu. He looked back down at his menu and ordered again. "Oh and a cheeseburger with tator tots and chicken nuggets?"

"Sure thing ski." she said writing his order down and walking away.

"Nigga..." Jah said holding back laughter.

"What bitch? I'M FUCKIN HUNGRYY!" Ski said so loud that everyone in the diner turned around to look over at our booth.

"shut the fuck uppp!" Jah whispered yelled, laughter escaping his lips.

Ski sat down and made a pouty face at Jah. I started laughing and they joined in until we were the loudest table in the diner again. Once we calmed down, the waitress came over and brought all of Ski's food. That shit took up 3 trays.

She set down the trays on the table and walked away. Ski quickly grabbed one of the burgers and started eating it. Me and Jah just sat there staring at him.

"Aren't y'all gon eat?" Ski asked looking from Jahseh over to me.

Jah didn't answer him, he just slowly reached over and grabbed a burger while staring at Ski. Me and Ski burst out laughing as Jah took an agressive bite of his burger.

"This nigga growlinggg" Ski said in between his laughs.

Jah started laughing but his smile quickly faded as he stared at something behind me and Ski.

Me and Ski stopped laughing and looked back, there was a girl standing at the door. She looked no older than 18, like us. She had soft brown curls popping off her head. She was wearing a black choker and and ghostbusters shirt with black ripped skinny jeans. She was about Jah's height and really skinny.

I looked back at Jah and he was still staring at her.

"Jahseh. Don't you dare." Ski said slowly with a little anger in his voice.

Jah didn't say anything and Ski continued to glare at him.

"Vro, she's not worth it, let's go." Ski said getting up.

I followed him but Jah didn't budge.

"Oh my fucking god." Ski said under his breath.

We went over to him and Ski pulled hin up. Ski continued to pull him towards the door and pushed him from behind. Once we got outside, Jahseh came back from his trance and sat down on the curb. He put his face in the hands, just like the day i met him..

"Jah what the fuck was that?!" Ski said angerly.

"I-i-i dont know...." Jah said, his face still in his hands.

"Jahseh you know what she did to you she doesnt deserve you." Ski said almost yelling.

"i know, i know, it's just-" Jah started to say.

"It's what Jahseh?! It's what?!" Ski said starting to yell a little. "You've gotta quit this shit vro.." Ski's voice started to soften into a whisper.

"i know, it's just so hard.." Jah said, looking up. "i loved that bitch..."

"I know you did Jah...but she's not worth your pain anymore..she fucked you over with some real bullshit..." ski said in a sad voice..

Jah got up and walked up to ski. He hugged him. "Thank you, vro."

All of this happened in a span of 10 minutes, while i just stood there...
