Chapter 26💚

Ranae

                "Where you was at? I thought you got off work early, at 7." My dad said standing in my door way. I sighed, rolling my eyes. I really didn't want to get confronted about anything. I'm almost traumatized from what just happened an hour ago. My dad now finds reasons to question me ever since he seen me hanging around Anthony.

"You don't hear me talking to you?"

"I did get off work at 7, after work I went with Nicole." I said, strolling through my news feed.

"Went with Nicole where?"

"To a Halloween party." I rolled my eyes.

"Was that shooting at that party? You was with that lil nigga?" He said raising his voice and I sighed. I knew he was gone drag him in somehow.

"No and no." I lied. "Dang, I can't just hang with my friends now?"

"You better not be lying to me Ranae. A lotta crazy shit happening and I don't want your ass caught up in it. That's why I told your ass to be home early."

"And I did. It's 9:00." I simply said.

"You supposed to came home after work! I don't know why you working anyways, we give yo ass everything you ask for." He raised his voice again.

"I barely ask for anything. Stuff I have, I've payed for myself." 

"So you buy all this unnecessary shit yo self and now you think you grown? Lil nigga gotchu smelling yo ass huh?"

I sighed, growing annoyed as I stared at nothing on the wall. "This has nothing to do with him dad. I'm getting older and you're just super overprotective and extra for no reason." I furrowed my brows together.

I seen my mom by the door way listening in and I knew Cameron was listening from wherever he's at.

"I ain't extra shit. Yo ass don't listen. School, work, and bring yo ass home."

"Okay father." I said completely over the situation. At the end of the day I'm getting older and I'll have to learn and do things myself. He's going to have to realize and accept that. And who I date has nothing to do with him.

"okay father my ass. I know lil niggas like his ass. Stay up in none but a lotta shit. Yo ass keep fucking playing with fire, yo ass eventually gone get burnt." He said walking away.

I rolled my eyes, getting up to close my door. I went back to my bed and got comfortable under my comforter and continued watching videos on Instagram.

I heard light knocks at my door and I groaned loudly, pulling the covers off me and got up to answer it. I thought it was my dad coming to yell at me again but I was wrong. It's been so long since I really looked at him, he looks so different.

He's taller then he was years back. I'm not surprised though because our dad is over six feet. And he cut his hair, he use to have a curly afro. But anyways, why was he even here? What made him want to come back after just disappearing on us out of nowhere. But what's crazy to me is my parents doesn't seem to care for some reason.

"You not gone come speak to me? I don't get no hug or nun?" He chuckled, holding his arms open. I just stood there, blankly looking at him. He sighed and dropped his arms after he realized I'm not running into them. And I don't know why he think I would.

"You mad at me aintchu?"

I stayed silent and just looked at him. And out of nowhere I became sad, on the verge of tearing up. I didn't want to talk to him so we was just standing here. Being the curious person that I am, I only wanted to know one thing.
