♡

Walking Inside the apartment Em and I Came across Trisha at the island eatting breakfast.
"Ania Found a different room" she said looking away from us. "But she not leaving until Monday." She finished off.

"You know she was kind of right though.
Yall did take over our apartment... we've been here since freshman year." She spoke Finishing the food she had in front of her. Marie and I gave each other a smug looking mocking her giving her a shrug.

"When do we get another roommate?" Marie asked, smirking as she walked to the fridge grabbing the pitch of water.

Trisha shrugged still giving Us a Iffy look. "Even though I dont agree with Ania - what y'all did was still fucked up" Trisha looked at both of us standing up straight.

"She started it" Marie walked over to the cupboard grabbing her cup.

"Im going to the room I don't have time to discuss this." I mumbled. "And she aint even gotta leave Ill Leave" I yelled once I walked passed her door walking inside my room.

"Scary Hoe" I mumbled talking to myself I started grabbing stuff for the rest of the week.
I made sure to have all my school things including my laptop, notes, pens, etc.
I made sure to have just enough outfits for the week along with shoes, assuming that was packing light. Turns out I had a lot more outfits than I assumed. There was so many different combinations I had, so I was left standing there staring at Two small suitcases an a large once: Along with a nighttime bag with all my toiletries and pjs.

"Bitch I gotta lotta shit!" I huffed coming out my room  Exaggerating the way I put my bags down, I heard Em laugh from her closet coming out.

"I aint even lyin." She shook her head.
"And My blue platforms is a Must"

"You got your school stuff?"  I doubled checked with her.

"Mhmm" she looked around doing a double check than looking up to me.
"Common, lets start taking this shit to the car." She smiled leaving out her room, me following behind her.

"Where yall going?" Trisha looked at us.
"Nunya" Em gave her a grimace look walking Past her.
Laughing shaking my head I Followed her.

Walking in the apartment Lilly was On the couch With Baby Ino playing 'airplane'
"Where'd Trent go?" I looked around putting my bags at the door.
"Mhm, Him and Derrek woke up said they had to go, they'll be back later."
"Oh" Marie sat at the table.
"What yall wanna do before our busy ass week starts tomorrow." I Sighed grabbing baby Ino from Lilly Playing Peekaboo with her. She smiled hard showing nothing but gums.
She was reaching her 1 Month Point next week and boy was she growing exceptionally.
"Did you do your Psychology Homework?" Em asked pulling her school bag up on the counter.
"Yeah... You need it?"
"Yesss ! PLEASE!" She came grabbing it from me.
"Lets go to the art Museum or some shit yall."
"How about Canoeing at the state park!" Em suggested.
"I like that!" Lilly agreed.
"Does Baby Ino Have a Jacket, gotta layer that baby up" I smiled at her.
"Ill bring my baby harness too, and face her on my chest so she stays warm."
Nodding our heads we all agreed finishing up what we were doing, then getting ready.

"Where the carseat?" Em asked Lilly peaking in her room.
"Was in Ken's Car..." she Blinked trying not to cry.

You could see the dread spread over her fave, and quickly she rushed out. "Im so sorry honey I didnt-"

"Its fine I'll buy a new one." Lilly quickly cut Marie off.

No one had dare asked Lilly what happened But the Cops so we didnt know jack shit of how it all went down.

His funeral is on Wednesday though, and its coming up so quickly I dont know if Lilly is Ready honestly.
She hasnt made not one plan for Shikamaru and at the mention of either she goes off end. I assume Giovanni bitch ass been handling it since he so "involved" and shit.

Shits fucked up.

"Iight lets go yall"
Em drove off as Lilly held Baby Ino in her arms gently cradling her.

"Yall wanna stop by Walmart first Ill just run in real quick and buy it.?" Em looked at lilly.
"Sure cool thank you Marie." She smiled at her looking back down.
I sure hope all this shit helps her out.
I know Nothing will ever complete her again but we have to do something.
With Em running out the store we strapped Baby Ino in snuggly.
"Ok mama Lovees You Yes she doesss" Lilly Smiled At Ino.
once we got to the park I Got out the car streching.
"Its a Pretty ass day" I yawned.
"It is... beautiful as fuck Look at the Leaves !" Lilly exclaimed.
"Hell yeah" Marie added pulling her little bookbag purse out strapping it on.
"Forwardth!" She shouted laughing.
We Made our way to the Booth to pay a fee for renting the Canoe.
"Ohhh lets paddle that way!" Lilly shouted.
"What size canoe should we get yall?"

"How about a Two Seater?" Someone said from beside me.
Looking that way I rolled my eyes.
"The fuck you doing here Richard?" Em Smiled.
"Getting some Fresh air... Yall Mind If I steal ya Girl away for a Sec?" He smirked at her.
"Yes" I chimed in.
"Not at alll" Em Looked at me telling me to just chill.
"Give me whichever seats Two" Rich Said to Cashier.
Rolling my eyes I walked by his side as he carried the boat to the water.
"So I finally got a lil date withcha"
Holding my brow up I scoffed.
" coincidentally running into me at the park and semi-forcing me to join you on a Canoe is not a date" I finished stepping in the boat.
Getting in behind me Rich started to paddle.
"Semi-forced" He chuckled " I Like that"
"Well I could have just said no"
"Why didnt you?"
"Cos I figured you'll leave me the hell alone if I do" I Smiled at him sarcastically.
"Cute"
"Well" I Mocked. "Im tired of you popping up." Looking at the scenery I Sighed.
The leaves left on the trees were Mostly Orange and red Leaving the reflection from the lake Sparkling in colors.
Birds were chirping, the sun was Bright but the air cooled it off perfectly, that weird but satisfying Pine sent in the air.
'I wish trent was here'
I thought looking back at Rich.
"Right...im starting to think you've been stalking me"
Giving him an offended laugh I sat up straight. "I could say the fucking same" I smiled relaxing.
"Hows Your classes Going?" He looked at me.
"Uh... good I guess I stay on top of everything for the most part, whatabout'chu?"
"Oh I Dropped out... It wasnt really for me" He looked to the trees.
"Oh, I was wondering what happened to you"
"So you thought about me?" He smirked at me making me laugh.
"Not like that"
"Mhmm"
"Youre actually funny"
"Funny enough for your number?"
"Aha ..No" I Laughed.
"Gotchaa"
Smiling away he kept rolling.
Taking out My Phone I started playing some music.
"Ok... just keep it recording ion care-"
"You know Kodak?" Rich Looked at me pointedly.
Nodding my head I kept rapping.
"I'm from Golden Acres but now I'm sittin' on acres ayye, I don't want no relations you know that I got me a lady, baby
Me and Lil DJ tight, we gon' rock to the grave from the cradle"

"House with a lake no neighbors links on my wrist no Bailiff aye" He joined in with me rocking the boat a lil.
"Stopp!" I laughed grabbing the sides of the boat
"My bad My Bad" he mumbled looking at the water nervously.
"You cant swim?" I asked jokingly rocking the boat again.
"Chilll Guh!"he yelled Sitting up straight looking at me with his lip turned up.
Laughing I Slapped His Leg.
"Dont worry I wont let you drown"
"A ke ke ke" He mimicked me rolling his eyes.
