Rosi slowly walked home from Kasa's Hot Dog Shack looking at the ground as it drizzled. She watched as the little paddles of rain danced their way onto the concrete. She didn't have a jacket or umbrella, but she didn't care to run, their wasn't really anything good to go home to.

It wasn't just the fact that Ree beat her almost every night. It's the fact that she had no one to go to, she had no one to call on. Ree didn't care tho, he said he did it because he loved her. It started when she was 10. It went from little slaps on the wrist to punches and stomps. One time, he broke her jaw.

Rosi's momma died having her & her dad couldn't take care of her so he gave her to Ree, who was his bestfriend at the time, at 2 years old. At least that's what Ree told her. Rosi didn't believe it tho, but she didn't asked questions in all the years he's been her caretaker.

Making her way in front of the door, Rosi pulled the key from her sock and opened the door. Uncle Ree was overseas for his job he wouldn't be home in about 2 days. She had some free days, finally. Or at least she thought.

"What you doing coming in this house all late and shit? And where the fuck yo clothes at? Yo over there fucking?" Rosi heard behind her as she walked in the house. Turning around she saw Uncle Ree sitting on the couch smoking a blunt.

"Aren't you supposed to be gone? For like 2 more days." Rosi asked trying not to act sacred. He hated when she acted scared, he thought she only did that to make him feel bad.

"I came home early just for you. And you need some clothes. You got school in a couple more days. You need supplies and all that shit." He said roughly for no reason as he blew smoke out his nose.

Reenan Jackson had problems, a lot of
problems. At 15 years old he was diagnosed with schizophrenia. He also had 2 other personalities,
Jack & Blum. Jack was the over possessive one, he would tell Ree things that would help him, but eventually get him in trouble.

For instance : killing his sister. When Reenan was 16 he killed his 11 year old sister, Mias. Mias has took over the Pac-Man game system hey had installed in their house while Reenan was about to play. Ree didn't really care because he loved his little sister, it wasn't a bother to him. But Jack, Jack wanted trouble. Jack didn't like Mias and how much of a brat she was.

"Your such a pussy. Letting your little ass sister control you."

"I'm not a pussy. And Mias not controlling me, she know better."

"She know better? Show her that she know better. Administrate her small ass. But of course your not gonna do it, lanky ass nigga."

13 hours later ; Mias Jackson was found dead in the oven. Ree's parents knew it was him but they covered it up and the police ruled it as suicide. Hell, it was 1997 and a black little girl just died, them pigs didn't care, even though it clearly wasn't suicide.

Now it's 2019, Ree still thinks about that to this day.

"Okay, you done talking or can I got to bed. Please." Rosi asked hopefully as Ree ranted. Rosi has became much much braver because Ree beat her less and touched her less. It's been 3 weeks since he'd beat her.

"Get yo ass up there and stop with that fucking additude. Aye, Rosi." He said and she turned around on the stairs. "You know I hit yo cause I love you and you know I can't control that's shit." He continued.

"Okay, goodnight." Rosi said and went to bed. She was tired of his bipolar ass.
