Listen to Hope

Jahseh's POV:

"Ol-ol," I cough. "Older brother?!" I splutter out.

"Yes. I have two older brothers and one younger brother." Mae states.

"Jesus fucking christ, how many siblings do you have?!" Stoke cuts in.

"Eight. Five older. Three younger."

"Damn. That's a lot of fucking siblings." Mimi says.

"I know."

"Wait." I say. "What happened?"

"He told daddy dearest where his daughter was and now Dustin is coming to pick me up." Mae crosses her arms.

"He sounds like a bitch." I say.

"Eh, he's pretty cool besides the whole 'Telling my dad I'm not at school, I'm with my friends' thing." Mae shrugs.

"We should have a party soon." Billie says.

"That sounds aye-aye-aye okay." Ski says.

"I'm down." Mae and Mimi say at the same time. "Oooh twin."

"Daddy, I'm hungry." Ski pats me.

"One, you just ate. Two, you just ate. Three, YOU JUST ATE, FATASS. Four, you're not allowed to call me daddy. That's for Sunday." I explain and Billie starts to laugh.

"No, but really. A party. Invite Juice, Diego, Hannah, JaKyse (Chys), Aspen, Trevor, Stella, Vicky, Jayla, Yachty, Tecca, Danny, all them hoes." Mae exclaims.

"Diego?" I frown. "Isn't he that one weird kid—"

"Bro, I love Diego." Mae exclaims.

"Looks like you got some compitetion." Ski whispers and nugdes me.

"Shut up. I don't date." I smack him back.

"Just—"

"What the fuck you want?" I growl as I open the door.

"Uh, I need to talk to you." Geneva says.

"Oh, it's you. Come in." I open the door.

"Hey guys. Mae." Geneva gasps and hugs her. Mae hugs back.

"Hi Gevena." Mae murmurs.

"Are you okay?"

"I'll live." Mae replies simply.

"Poor thing." she pulls away.

"Hey Jahseh." Ski says.

"Yuh?" I ask.

"Can we have ice cream?" he asks with puppy dog eyes.

"WE JUST ATE." I exclaim.

Mae lets go of Gevena and wraps her arms around Ski's neck, hugging him from behind. She reaches up and squishes his cheeks together. "How can you say no to this? Go get him some ice cream." she orders.

"Thank you Mae. You are my savior." Ski sighs dramatically.

"Ugh." I say and turn around.

Mae's POV:

"Ski, what do we say since Jahseh is being nice and getting you ice cream?" I say, letting go of his face.

"Thank you!" Ski chimes.

"What's the magic word?" Jahseh asks, looking more at me.

I look at Ski and he says, "Please daddy?"

"Mae's turn."

"Please?" I smile at him.

"Please- what?" he says.

"Please Jahseh?" I ask again.

"You got to say the other word." Ski says, gritting his teeth.

"What?! No!" I exclaim and Jahseh sits back down.

"Please? For me, you're bestest friend?" Ski says and Mimi snorts at this. Stoke rolls his eyes. "Your secondest bestest friend?"

"I'll just go get you some myself." I reply and stand up, walking to the kitchen.

Jahseh stands up and grabs my arm gently and spins me around.

"What?" I ask softly.

He leans down to whisper in my ear and then—

Knock knock knock

"Mae?" I hear my brother, Dustin, yell. "Dad wants you home!"

"Alright, I coming!" I yell. Jahseh whispers in my ear, "I'll call you tonight."

"Bye guys!" I say, ignoring Jahseh as I walk to the door and open it to see my big brother.

"Dad said you're in trouble." Dustin says.

I shrug, "Eh."

And then we walk out to the car together.
