"Baby breathe"your mother rubbed your back as you threw up in the trash can for the 2nd time of the night ,considering it was 4am that was more than enough times
You hyperventilated as you wiped the sides of your mouth with the back of your hand before laying your head in your mother's lap as she ran her fingers through your hair calming you down"Mom they killed him ,they killed Ty!"you cried out clutching your head as she whimpered closing her eyes
"I know baby,I know"she cried with you as you thought back to the life changing event that occurred only a few hours ago..........
Ready by Lil Baby blared throughout the car as you and your 21 year old big brother Ty'rell rode through the streets of college park Georgia,you had just left a party that was still going on at 1am but your older brother insisted that it was too late for you to be out despite you almost being 18 but he suggested that just in time because according to Snapchat a fight broke out leading to a shoot out just after y'all had left.
"Whatchu thinking bout in dat big head of yours girl?"your brother smirked biting his bottom lip pinching your cheek snapping you out of your thoughts while looking between you and the road as he grabbed the back of your neck before bringing your head to his chest as he drove with the other hand showering your forehead with kisses making you laugh as his scent of cologne covered your nose,he pulled back and you sat up straight fixing your hair
"Nothing"you crossed your arms over your chest smiling as he mocked you making you laugh , he turned down the music slightly as Hold on by Drake played lowly
" just life I guess"you shrugged looking down at your lap that was covered with grey leggings
"Elaborate fah me"he turned into a gas station as he looked for an empty pump
"Mm"you thought to yourself biting your lip" I wanna know when my life will like actually start ,when will things start to change ,I mean- Ion really know how to explain it"you exhaled shrugging ."Nah you really don't" he shook his twisting his lips parking at pump 7 and turning off the car as you looked over at him with a frown making him laugh "I'm playing ,I'm playing"he chuckled
"Nah but for real when I was your age I questioned that same thing"he sat back fixing his fitted cap
"Like honestly ,I used to think man...I wanna actually start living, I've just been surviving this whole time"he looked straight ahead as you nodded completely understanding him
"And as time went on and I graduated high school ,became a father ,I started becoming more responsible and came into my full purpose and still are coming into the true knowledge of my purpose,I realized and still am coming into the understanding that it's the things you make of yourself and the people you associate yourself with -thats what makes life what it is"he talked with his hands as you listened attentively
"You surround yourself with positive energy and mentally consume positive things and eventually you'll start to become it ,same goes for negative unless your extremely head strong which even then your surroundings will eventually become you,"he sat up in his seat"just think if today was Yo last day would you be happy with what you've accomplished and experienced here on earth?"he asked raising his eyebrow at you as you couldn't help but agree with him
