And I'll take with me the memories
To be my sunshine after the rain
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday

Boys II men it's so hard to say goodbye played as I got out the shower wiping the fog off the mirror. It's been about a month since my parents died. I honestly feel at ease which is surprising to most people. I know what my parents were going through. They stayed together and fought each and everyday thinking it's what I wanted. All I wanted was peace and I finally got it despite them having to die.

The way they died wasn't a shocker to me as it was to most people. My mom shot my father in the heart then shot herself in the head. If the neighbors didn't hear the shots I would have went home to two dead bodies.

"Rain you good?" I heard Gio's soft voice on the other side of the door. "Yea." I said looking at myself in the mirror. For the past month I've been living between Gio's house, and Skai's house. Since I was 17 the states did not want to legally let me be myself so instead of putting me in  foster care Saint and Seven both signed rights for me until I turn 18.

With Seven and Saint taking care of me I was able to keep access all the money, properties, cars everything my mother and father had in there names. It was all mine. I tried sleeping at my house but it didn't work so I spend half the week at Sevens and the other half at Saints.

Opening the door I was met to a smiling Storm and Gio. "You don't have to stand at the door everytime I take a shower." I told Gio as I walked to my room as he followed behind me.

"Yea but we wanted too." He said and I rolled my eyes. "Just because my mother killed herself doesn't mean I will. I'm content with life. No need to worry." I said putting on a pair of boy shorts and some sweats and a sports bra with an oversized tshirt.

"I know you not gon kill yourself. I'm just trying to be here for you." He said and I nodded my head. I honestly appreciate Gio's caring but he out of all people should no I'm not that type of person. I don't wear my heart on my sleeves.

"She looks just like Chyna." I said as he looked at me. "Really? that's a first I'm use to people saying she looks like me." As I shook my head. "Nope  when she was first born but now she looks like Chyna. So pretty." I said smiling down at Storm.

"And who did these little ponytails to her hair

"And who did these little ponytails to her hair." 8 said laughing. "Me nigga got bored." Gio said as I shook my head. "This ain't it." I told him as he sucked his teeth. "You a hater. My baby look gorgeous regardless the hairstyle." He said picking Storm up.

"Does everyone have clothes on." Skai said as she walked in the room causing Gio to suck his teeth. "My baby in here for crying out loud I have some class." He said getting up walking out the room.

"What you doing here?" I asked shocked. Skai and I's relationship has been good so far. She's really been there for me this pass month and she knows when to give me space.

"Was running errands with my dad and he had to stop by." She said as I nodded my head. "How you feeing."  she asked and I nodded my head. "Hanging in there. You ready to go back to school." I asked and she got quiet.

"Not really I'm honestly trying to convince them to let me home school and go to college in Atlanta and live with my older sister." She said and I nodded my head. That honestly didn't sound like a bad idea. "What's stopping them from letting that happen?" I asked and she shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know.  But i do know I don't want to go back to that school. I hate them kids." She said and I laughed. I hate them to.

"Well Kristin why did you go to the dinner? What was the point?" Tae asked as I sat in the car waiting for Dior and Easton to come out of school.

"Because! he want me tho long ass paragraph of how he wanted to be with me. How he was done with the games he picks me and boom! I get there and he has the bitch kid with him? like come on I had no words. I'm not about to be with someone who can't let there ex and her child go." I vented as Tae got quiet.

Over the few months me helping out at the shop Tae and I have become really close. He's literally my best friend is you ask me. "Look Kristin I'm not about to tell no grown woman what to do with her nigga but I will give you some advice. Leave that nigga. Let him go. He's had plenty of opportunities to get his shit together and he didn't do it. All you done for him back in the days it's done. That little first love shit is over." Tae said and I nodded my head agreeing with him.

"Now once your able to let them feelings go I wouldn't be mad if you hopped on the dick a few times! Rather the same AINT shit dick then random dicks up in ya guts." He said causing me to gasp. "Deontae!" I shouted as he started laughing. "What I'm just keeping it real. If he got good dick why you have to sacrifice that? Fuck it he don't care why should you? Fuck and keep it pushing until you find you a real nigga.

"Your crazy." I said and he continued laughing. "Here the kids come I'll talk to you later. Love ya." I said hanging up as Easton and Dior came in the car.

"I was school?" I asked. "Tiring. I'm the only one who knew all the answers to Ms.Hannah's questions." Dior said as I started laughing. "That's good! Mommy and daddy going to be happy." I said looking in the rear view mirror.

"Where is mommy?" Dior asked. "She's home waiting for you guys." I said smiling making my way hone. Feeling my phone vibrate I looked down and pop contact came up. Shaking my head I continue making my way home.
