One week later
“So did you tell your moms the truth yet?” Shugg asked as we were in the store.
I shook my head, “Nah, Tony gone now so it don’t even matta. She’ll get over it eventually.”
“I think you should still tell her though. He ain’t there because he ain’t wanna be there. It’s not like she kicked him out. You don’t want him to come back out of nowhere and she just let him in.” He said.
I was hearing him but I had already made up my mind that he was the only person who would know about it. I highly doubt he would come back and try something stupid. Yeah I was hurtin’ about it for a while but I wasn’t about to show that hurt. I was ready to make a fresh start.
“I hear you…” I finally said.
He nodded and that was the end of it. “So you gonna come with me to pick up Mush from the hospital?”
“Uh… nah. You go head, I’ll go see him later.” I said.
“Aight, But remember he gon be home…” he said.
At first I was confused but the look he was giving me made me realize what he was talking about. His mother.
“She don’t hardly ever be there anyway. I’ll just go see him when she not there. Pssh! I could sit there all day if that’s the damn case.”
Shugg laughed and I joined in.
“That lady is a trip though. You gotta admit,”
“Whateva. She can trip all she wanna, she just betta not trip too much or I’ll be forced to beat that ass!”
Shugg laughed by himself this time. I was being too serious to laugh.
“So, how long til you think he fully healed?” I asked.
“Well, he all stitched up and erything. The week he been in there gave him his strength back or whateva so I’d say in about anotha week or two he’ll be makin them jump shots he love so much.”
I smiled at the thought of him back on the court once again. “Dats Cool.” I said still smiling.
He saw my face and shook his head. “See, its just puppy love. Bark on baby, bark on bark on.” He sang, imitating the bow wow song ‘puppy love’.
“You’re a dumbass!”
I laughed at him and then gave him a hug. “See you later babe.”
“Aight.” He replied as he got into his car.
I had on a red halter top and some short black shorts. The fresh red and black adidas I had on set off my outfit. I had on a huge pair of earrings and cherry lip gloss. I must admit that I didn’t have to dress to impress to look good. This wasn’t a slutty outfit like some girls had to do to get heads to turn. Natural beauty was rare and some people couldn’t do it like I could.
When I approached the basketball court everybody was out there laughing and shootin hoops like they normally did. There was no drama which was rare and everybody was just flat out havin a good time.
“Hey y’all!” I yelled to the boys on the court.
“Hey kiki” or “Wassup kiki.” Was the response they all gave.
I went over to where Danny, Cocoa, and Viola were sitting. This bitch Viola was every where I seemed to be these days. The bitch was really askin’ for it.
“Oh girl who you lookin all good for?” Viola asked.
I shot her a stone cold look that told her ass not to fuck with me.
“It was a simple question and it required a simple answer.” She shot back.
“Bitch when I get up and simply fuck you up don’t say shit!”
She rolled her eyes. “Whatever.” She mumbled.
“What? Did you speak to me?” I asked. I wanted her to step of of character with me. She had been testing me these pass few days and I’m not to be tested.
“You really need to chill out kiki.” Cocoa said.
“Since when do you take up for her? I don’t recall you takin up for her when she was fuckin ya man!” I was accidently loud when I said that and a few people looked.
“Kiki!” Danny said.
I didn’t mean to be loud about it but damn, they was both getting on my nerves. If they wanted to catch a tude then they could do it on their own time not mine!
“Whateva, I don’t even care about that no more.” Cocoa said.
Viola on the other hand got extremely quiet. I laughed as she sat there sulking.
“Ahahaha! Whores these days…. Whooo!” I was really laughing though. I wasn’t being phony or fake or anything. I really thought this was the funniest moment since last year when Cocoa fell off that motor scooter and landed on her chin!
“Whatever Kiki. I definitely ain’t fuckin nobody since jojo is paralyzed from the waist down.”
I looked at her like she slapped me in the face. “You was fuckin dat dirty motha fucka? You bitch!” I jumped up and took a step toward her. I was ready to handle her then and there but then Danny jumped in front of me.
“She’s not worth it. Lets go to my house and hand out for a little while.”
“No! I fuckin hate this bitch! Even when she aint directly doin something to affect me it still affect me!” I yelled.
The dudes on the court had all stopped and zoomed in on the action.
“Bitch dats cuz you in ery body business!” I couldn’t believe she had the audacity to call me outta my name.
I leaped toward her and it took Danny and Cocoa to hold me back. “You whorin ass bitch! Just wait til I catch you by yo self!”
“What chu gonna do?” She asked slipping a hand to her hips. She was talkin shit cuz she knew I couldn’t reach her ass!
I calmed myself down and got my composure back. She of coarse was still grinning.
“Somebody up there really cares for you.” I said pointing up to the sky. “Cuz you been touched by an angel girl. Next time you betta hope you get that same treatment.”
I grabbed my cellphone off the ground and began walking away with Danny at my side.
