Luca POV
"So y'all tryna fly out there?" Mrs. James sighed.
"I got bills and shit I can just get up and go. They have school and I- it's just too much. You'll think as much as I be away from my kids to be at that place I'll be getting money." She sighed and I nodded.
"When is the funeral?"
"Saturday. We will just fly out and show our love another time. It was just so unexpected I literally paid all my bills 3 days ago." She dried her hands. "I am gonna miss my brothers." Her head dropped and I stood up and walked over to her and hugged her. She slowly fell into my hug and cried harder.
"Mrs. T you don't have to be strong for everyone. You deserve to heal and mourn just like everybody else." I said that but I prayed that Jazzy and Chi did not walk through that door.
Mrs. T is amazing she is a hustler bye any means. Long night even longer days. I respect that and I admire that.
"How about I just get y'all the tickets and we fly out." I sighed as she wiped her face. "It's no big deal it could be our secret. I wish I was able to go to my brother funeral and I regret it all the time. I would dear want you to go through that."
"I don't know. You work for your money and it's plenty other things you can get. I don't want you to even Spend that money on us." I shrugged.
"Well this what I wanna spend it on." She nodded. "Okay Si you found some flights any flights y'all want and get two extras and I'll pay or I'll give you the bread and you pay."
"Okay." She nodded.
"Mommy!" I heard Jazmine voice.
"Kitchen!"
"Hey baby face thick neck." Jazmine hugged me and kissed her mom cheek.
"Oh you bidden." We laughed.
"I am just calling it how it is. Where my man."
"Man?" Mrs. T asked and Jazmine blushed.
"Yes." She squealed. "Well we not officially official but that is my man." Chiyanna walked in.
"Hey mommy." She hugged and kissed her mom. "Hey boy." She mugged me.
"What? what did I do now?" She rolled her eyes.
"Mom let me tell about Bri." She rolled her eyes.
"What?" Its like we all sat down at the same time.
"So why that bitch was tryna be smart all day today like girl I did you nothing. Jazzy the one that kicked your ass bitch but she moving smart but weird because she knows how I am about Jazzy. Anyway this hoe moved her seat mind you she moves to the seat where his sister and her friends sit. We don't really fuck with her plus she is a little girl so we don't pay her no mind it's no beef but Bri you so joe ass was literally so hype to help expose that girl like Lulah is actually a sweet girl she just has to put on a front for her friends because they are older. Which I understand but Bri you are so joe the whole you don't even know they came up to us and squashed beef. How long ago?" She asked Jazmine.
"Mon- yesterday."
"Yeah so they came up to us telling us what she was say and how she fuck Lik and that how we became friends. Like girl my brother didn't even like you as a person for some reason but now I know like Bitch you were around us hating the whole time."
"I knew the bitch was a hater. She was in competition with me for y'all's love and everybody around me. She keep tryna make shit about the Dequan situation. Girl in ninth grade nobody was fucking nobody me and Dequan literally liked eachother because we liked each other snd you fucked him so of course he would give you attention. I told Chi she was tryna fuck Lik and his friends she was just too much but I kept it cute for my twin but I would never step outside with you just to do it. Don't get it fucked up she is pretty and everything but she is a fucked up person like who lies about being blasian girl your dad is black and white and you mom is white just because you have tight eyes don't make you Asian. Stupid bitch."
"Oh you heard her say that to?" Chi laughed. "I was like bitch... stop the cap. I made her take it out her bio and everything." I laughed because she told Keyon she was Asian too.
"She can get my son in trouble. Y'all need to check that shit ass." They nodded.
"Y'all want me to kill her?" They all just stared at me. "Shit I was just offering my services. I been wanted to shoot her ass for punching me in my mouth for calling you my bitch." They laughed.
I was dead ass serious.
"You need to kill my dad." Jazzy said and they laughed. "If you gone kill someone."
"Where he live?"
"Oh yeah mom did you ever find him?" Chi got up and got a banana.
"Yea him and his ugly bitch." They laughed. "He back home."
"Oh okay. Ciara called me and said they tryna put her in foster care because since uncle Nuk no her they putting her out or whatever snd her being 17 she has no where to go."
"Well we will figure it out." They nodded. "Lik can't leave school so we won't be seeing him. He said he misses y'all though."
"Bullshit. He don't call us or answer the phone." Jazmine rolled her eyes.
"Oh I thought he was mad at me or something." Chi laughed.
"He is weird." Jazmine pulled out her phone. "I would even know how to talk to him if he called me like that's how long it's been. He is like them cousins you only see during the family reunion and they but like you remember me. That conversation be so awkward."
"Don't do my son."
"Fuck him." Chi scoffed an Jazzy yelled in agreement.
"He is just busy." They looked at eachother and started laughing.
"You think what I am thinking." They said at the sametime and we all laughed.
"My birthday is tomorrow." Chi sighed. "I don't even feel like doing anything."
"We can go to the hookah lounge." Jazzy shrugged.
"You are still seventeen."
"Oh yeah." Chi laughed.
"We can go to the club on broad." I suggested. "I can get y'all in and whatever and we can vibe out."
"Okay that sound like a plan fassure fassure."Jazmine nodded.
"I'm sleepy mommy."
"Take a nap baby. What y'all want for dinner."
"Whatever you want." She got up and kissed her mom. "I love you mommy."
"I love you too."
"I love you mom." Jazmine hugged her and I dapped her up.
"I love you mom."
"That is not your mom!" Chi yelled and I laughed. "Come on babe."
"Babe? Aye!" I smiled and Mrs. James laughed. "I'm coming."
We went in her room and she massaged my scalp until we both fell asleep.
