    I wake up to Matt and Zaria talking on the couch next to us and Mama Catchings in the kitchen making breakfast for us all. I hear a sudden knock on the door. Mrs Catchings yells, "D, please get the door if you wouldn't mind!" I said, "Yes ma'am!" I open the door and was in shock when I saw my friend Jeremi and his girlfriend Alize at the door. I greet them with the biggest hug of all time. "Bro what the hell? I thought you were gone. I thought y'all moved after y'all got together to get away from yalls family." "We did, but we're back now. My house got hit by a tornado so we have nowhere to stay so my grams is allowing us to stay at her crib til we can get back on our feet. We transferred back down here and now imma be going to school with you again fam. Shit should be lit." I give Alize a huge hug and ask her, "How you been sis, you pullin through?" She said, "Yeah D, I'm making it. Still kinda confucked by this whole situation but I'm glad we got somewhere to stay until everything is solved. And I'm ready to meet this lil hmm hmm of yours. Hope it's not that little slut you been entertaining for the past few years." "Nahh sis. Can't be her anymore. Hey babe, come here." Zuri said, "Babe?!" She looked into my eyes and jumped into my arms and started crying. I think she got the message. "Well she's mine now." Everybody in the house just got hers around us as she cries on my shoulder in happiness. I'm officially with a person who loves me for me and isn't materialistic. I really love her. I know this is a wild turn after just breaking up with Sa, but love brings me happiness and without happiness, I'm not myself. I cried myself to sleep at night most nights knowing what I'm doing isn't enough. The love that I portray and give isn't enough. And now that someone appreciates it, it makes my soul feel amazing. I set her down on the couch and hug her. I say, "I promise you, Zuri Cordeah Catchings, that I'll make you the happiest woman alive. You'll get everything you want, need and wish of, and I don't care if it takes all of me to make that happen, but anything for you. Everytime we touch, kiss, hug, anything it makes me so happy. I haven't got that feeling from anybody else. You are the peanut butter to my jelly. I don't think there is anyone like you. That's why I made you mine. ❤️ as I gave her a kiss on the cheek. Everybody drops a slight tear as we hug it out. "Well, if y'all got a car we can go in that fits about like 10 we can go get y'all some stuff to help out the problem." "Yeah we met up with Beezy, Korey, Dasia, Cleo and Oasis." Dasia is a girl i use to have the biggest crush on back in like the 9th grade, but things didn't go my way, but that's my bitch. She gives me a hug and says, "YOOO, what's good my g?" "Nothing much Dasia, just living." "I see ya lil shawty over there. She looking mighty scrumptious, ask her can I get a bite out of that thang.." I bust out laughing as I walk past her as I give my half sister the biggest hug of all. My half sister Cleo has been there for me through so much. Ever cried together and sung together. So much we've done together. It's a shame that y'all are just now meeting her. "Hey my baby." "HEYYY!" We hug as I dap up my bro Korey's hand. We hit em with the old fashion, "IT EEZ WHAT IT EEZ!" Everybody starts laughing as Beezy crazy ass walks up and gives me a hug. "Wyd boy." "Not Shii you big mf what you doin?" We laugh it out as I tell everybody about how I got suspended. I met Oasis at school one day when her and Dasia got caught kissing in the back of art class and I walked in witnessing the massacre. What a crazy day that was. Besides the point, all of us, including Zuri hop in the whip as we head to the mall to get some clothes for Jeremi and Alize. We get to the mall and see that same Black Camaro chillin in the parking lot. Jae is here and I don't know why. We walk in and go straight to PacSun where I spent bout 250 on them some clothes and then we went to Bath and Body Works cuz you know the girls love B&BW. They spent bout 60 in there. We head to the FootLocker and guess who we see. Jae. He stares me dead in the eyes and says, "How can I help y'all today!" "We came to get some shoes for some friends. We gone look around." "Sounds great guys, lemme know if y'all need me!" I leave them to look around and I walk over to him. "You good?" "Yeah bro, not even gone lie. You helped me." "And how did I do that?" "You helped me out, when you could've gotten me sent to the pen. I could have been in jail for years behind that. I got this job two days ago and I started today. I'm living with my cousin Dante until I can get me an apartment. I see you and Zuri are pretty much together now. I didn't treat her the best. And you are treating her much better than I was. I'm happy for you bro. And for Sariah, she's nothing to me. I saw her with Kobe earl-." "YOU SAW HER WITH KOBE?!" "Yeah in the McDonalds Parkin lot kissing and holding hands on the car." "Bet that up, thanks bro." *Buzz Buzz* "so you gone leave me here with Matt so you and your lil so called friends can hang out? What happened to us? I thought we were BEST friends? And who was that other girl you were hugging up on crazy? Dasia?! I knew you hadn't lost feelings for her and know you so fucking cool with her?! Man WTF!", Zaria texted me. I texted back, "it's not even that serious. I got better things to handle. I'll get back to you soon." ILL BE IN THE CAR. WHEN YALL DONE TAKE ME BACK TO THE FUCKING CRIB! SHIT FINNA GO DOWN AND THATS ON MY POPS!" How could my brother betray me like this?
