Meechie pov

Over time I found out you can ignore the hell outta somebody but if they really wanna talk, they gone keep going.

That's what Ava was doing to me right now.

"I just don't understand why he'd wanna drop out with no plan. Like what are you gonna do?"
She ranted.

I had to listen to this shit when I came home last night and now I still had to listen to it as I put Ashton's socks on.

It really wasn't that serious like she was making it seem. Dude said shit ain't for him, then let it go.

"Where's he gonna live? Did he not think about that?"

"He can stay here." I responded.

"No he can't. It's enough people that live here."

Ian know who the hell she was talking about since ain't nobody stay in here but 5 people. We had more than enough room in this big ass house.

"Well get him an apartment or some then. I'll pay for it."

I was willing to do anything to get her to stop talking about this.

"No Demetrius. That's not the point. I just feel like they're doing all of this because mom and dad are dead. Lucas wouldn't dare drop out if either of them were here."

I sighed and closed my eyes, "Ava that ain't your responsibility though. Let that man figure shit out on his own."

"How are my siblings not my responsibility? You sound stupid as fuck."

So this was finna turn into an argument.

Ian even wiped the crust outta my eyes and here she come tryna ruin a nigga morning. Lucas ain't no lil child he know what he wanna do.

But of course she always gotta find a way to make somebody else problems her own. I wouldn't even call it no problem anyway but she finna make it one.

"iight Ava you right. You put Ashton shit back in his book bag?" I asked, trying to change the subject.

She turned and walked out of the room, "Don't I always?"

I looked at Ashton and shook my head, "Your mama a nut."

We walked downstairs so he could eat breakfast and bumped into Lucas who was walking back and forth in the living room like he was crazy.

Please lord not another one.

"What's up?" He asked.

"Wassup bro. You good?"

"Yeah. What time you drop Ashton off?"

"In a lil while. You need some?" I asked.

He was looking like he was nervous to talk to me or some. Ian never did none to this man so Ian know what was wrong with 'em.

His eyes went behind me like he was looking for somebody, "I uh, wanted to talk to about something. I'll ride with you?"

Ian want his ass to ride with me nowhere.

Instead of saying that, I nodded my head, "Yeah that's cool. Prolly leave in like 30 minutes."

"Cool."

I continued into the kitchen, sitting Ashton in his chair and going to pull out some eggs.

As I drove to Ashton's school, I waited for Lucas to start the conversation.

That clearly wasn't about to happen since he was just sitting there, staring straight ahead.
