Ray POV
"So what you wanna talk about and why the beach ?" Summer asked as we was walking the beach.
Instead of just sitting in the car talking I wanted to walk on the beach. 1. It was my favorite place too think and 2. I use to go to the beach all the time with my moma.
"Next week make a year since my moma passed and because I just like the beach" I said.
"Damn. I'm sorry you know despite the fact I still barely like you if want me to keep you company that day I'll come." She playfully pushed my shoulder.
I still couldn't believe it's been a year since she passed. It felt like it was just yesterday she was calling me telling me to get in the house.
*flashback*
"Hello?" I answered.
"WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU LITTLE BOY? DO YOU SEE WHAT TIME IT IS?" My mother yelled through the phone.
I swear to god she be doing the most sometimes. I'm just out here tryna get money for us since she my so called fathered only send money once a month.
For him to be so big time producer he really be trying us with these little checks once a month.
"Ma I'm on the way home right now dang you trippin".
"WHAT YOU MEAN IM TRIPPING? SHUT THE FUCK UP BOY FOR I SHUT YOU UP MYSELF"
I took the phone from year and hung up. She was doing the absolute most and I hated that.
I dapped Ryan and Anthony up telling them I had to dip and started walking home. I only stayed 3blocks down the street so it wasn't really a long walk.
Walking in the house the lights were off I slowly closed the door and turned around.
The lights came on and I saw my moma standing there with a belt behind her back. Before I could run up the stairs she started swinging.
She got me 4 good times in the face and at least 3 in the back. I wasn't crying but I was really in pain.
"Hang up on me again and watch we have a bigger issue. now getcho ass up them stairs and go to bed, and if I wake up an you not here I will hunt you , Ryan and Anthony down myself and beat the shit outta all y'all" She sat the belt down.
*flashback over*
I felt Summer wipe the tear from eye that was falling. One thing about me I never hide my feelings when it comes to my moma I don't care who around me.
I looked at her and she looked back and smiled. I was glad she was actually beginning to be cool with me again. The whole thing between her and Royalty still had me mad a little , Royalty wasn't even suppose to be there that night.
"It's okay" she whispered. Pulling me into a hug I laid my head on her shoulders thanking her for caring.
"Damn man I ain't never cry in front of a female before, only Ava and Cymone. Never again will I cry in front of Cymone though she such a bully" I chuckled.
"Yea she is- you know it's okay to cry though right? It doesn't make you soft and makes you real"
"Nigga I know it don't make me soft." I mushed her head.
We sat their for a while and just watched the waves go back and forth. Until she broke the silence. "You knew about Ava cheating on Kennedy?" She asked.
