Can't let go

Right in the eye

Jo sprung up and I grabbed her mid air as she going to pounced on Jayla.

"August move" Jo says trying to get to jayla

"Nah baby. don't give her the satisfaction." I say cooing her

"Nah, she want it. she can get it."jo say still trying to go around me.

"Baby, even if he was to let you go. you can't hurt me." Jayla say smiling

Jo stops struggling and sighs and just walks upstairs

"You can leave now" I say to Jayla

"Nope I'm cool sitting right here" Jayla says smiling sitting back in her seat.

I clench my fist and walk upstairs. and see Jo sitting on the bed with her head down.

"Wassup baby?" I asked

"I thought.... I just.... idek anymore. what type of sister is she?" Jo says

"Shes always been like this. you always used to ignore her. and y'all would just avoid eachother. but you haven't talked to yo sisblings in a while" I say

"That's why Mel didn't greet them" she asked

"Yea, she doesn't like strangers" I say
Then I thought about when she first met me. she liked me. that's weird.

"Oh how come?" I asked

"After you had your..... meltdown. you didn't want to talk to anyone. And they had they own lives. I mean y'all ain't that really of a close family. but y'all still kin."I say

"It's because of jayla huh?" She asked

"Yea she kinda ruined y'all unitedness." I say

"Figures" Jo laughs

"I really wanted to Kick her in the face" Jo laughed more

"I don't want to ruin it so I protected her from you. I've seen you fight. You handle yours" I laugh too

"I want to finish with my family" she says getting up giggling

"You good?" I asked rising up too

"Yea, just gotta ignore her." she says

"Let's go" I say

We walk down stairs and Jo looks at her parents

"Sorry for that mom and dad" she says

"It's fine baby." Mr. Hill says

She smiles

"I'm also sorry jayla. I should of known you had a problem. but I've remember reading a book about people like you. see when you get frustrated it's because your angry" Jo say making a mad face

"You angry cuz you can't think straight. but what you do to control your anger like the rest of your species .you use those monkey claws you call hands and climbs up a tree and eat some fresh fruits and pick in you friends hairs for bugs. and your all set." Jo say smiling

Jayla gasped and gets up and goes to the bathroom.

"I know you didn't just call your sister an orangoutang" I ask

"Maybe." Jo says sitting on her feet in the chair next to me.

"That was foul jo" Joseph laughs

"Well....." she trailed off

"Any way, when are y'all leaving?" Jo asked

" we live here."her moms points to herself and her boyfriend/hubby. "jasmine lives in Hawaii with her husband and kids. Joseph lives in Atlanta as a personal trainer. and Jayla lives here." she says
