It has been three weeks and today was the last day of school before winter break. A lot of people left last week to go see family early.
Me and my mom always leave last minute because of her job.
I packed my stuff and not a single winter coat or hat is coming with me to California. The door to my room opens and my mom comes in.
Mom: "Are you almost done packing?" She's ask with a cherry pot tart in her hand."
"Yea I just have to do my hair stuff and my shoes then I'm done."
Mom: "Okay and you have that stuff for your other family over there." She waves her hand.
"Why you say it like that my other family." I laugh.
Mom: "Cause them is yo peoples."
"Yes mom I have their gifts."
Mom: "Alright hurry up."
"Can I have the other one?"
Mom: "The other what"
I point at the pop tart in her hand.
Mom: "Tsk girl I ate it ."
"Are there any more?"
Mom: "Nope." She leaves my room.
We pack everything in the car and we leave.
Our first stop is my dads house to drop off gifts to them.
Mom: "I'm not staying and talking...dropping this stuff and we gone like Doordash ."
Given the fact that my dad couldn't show up to my game and his team could I have no problem just dropping this stuff at the door.
I get out of the car and get the gifts for everyone. I refuse to make two trips.
After I drop the gifts I text Jeremiah and tell him that I wish I could have come in we were going to be late for our flight.
As soon as I get back in the car my phone starts ringing. Rocket is trying to FaceTime me.
I put my phone up on the holder and answer then pull out of the driveway.
"Hello?"
Rocket: "Aye D"
"Yes?"
Rocket: "You still in Ohio."
"I'm on my way to the airport now why?"
Rocket: "When you get out there check on my man Melo for me."
"Why?"
Rocket: "Him and his girl broke up and we we need him right before that game next week."
"Why is the fate of that man's mental state resting on my shoulders?"
Rocket: "Cause he'll answer if you call him and your the only one of us going out there."
" I stay in Sac..ra...mento he lives in Ch..I..no that is damn near a seven hour drive"
