"Alright let me know when y'all done." I said on my way out of Momma Browns house. She wanted to hang out with the girls for a while.
"Okay be safe." I waved.
Old hag
I'm on my way
I was going to meet my mother for dinner we were just gonna talk and see how she's doing. I walked inside the building scanning the room.
"Summer." She called out catching my attention. I walked over to her table and sat down I looked at her drink seeing it looked like a margarita.
"Don't worry it's virgin, it's nice to see you." She smiled.
"Oh ok are you still..clean?" I asked hoping to get the answer I'm looking for.
"Yes haven't done anything since." I nodded.
"Ok that's good."
"Oh I got you a water didn't know what you would've wanted."she added.
"Thank you this is fine." I didn't know what to really say seeing that I've never got to see this side of her.
"I'm guessing you have a lot of questions? Feel free to ask them."
"Man where to start? I more or less just wanna hear what happened to you, then I'll let the questions come as you go." I told her, she nodded and enter locked her hands.
"Well I'd like to apologize, I know this won't replace the scars I've given you but I hope it gives you some type of closure." She apologized.
"I will be completely honest if you promise to do the same. Your words mean nothing to me. I just wanna know what the fuck happened and why you felt the things you did we're ok." I said as we held eye contact.
"I will be nothing but honest, you have my word." I nodded and she continued.
"Let's start with your father. I loved that man so much it was scary. Like when I got pregnant with your brother my parents were furious. At that time they just found out who your dad was so they didn't help me with your brother at all. And man when I tell you he step up I mean it and our bond grew from there."
"Is he the reason you got into drugs?" I asked.
"No I was dumb and reckless, but I would say he got me deeper into drugs. Him doing what he did drugs were thrown in my face and I got hooked. So the night your Brother and Dad were killed I was about to overdose." She said while her eyes got watery.
"We almost lost your sister because i didn't know I was pregnant. After Kaykay wa-" I cut her off.
"Don't call her that" I told her.
"I understand, after she was born it went downhill from there. I had money and drugs we're just there." She said
"You didn't give a fuck about Kaykay from the jump."
"No i did I was just trying to cope." She spat out soon as I said my last word.
"You didn't care and you showed me that when you left her with a child. And I did a hell of a job too she having a better child hood then I had myself. I'd be damn if I let her see half of the shit I seen." I said because I'm completely over the whole conversation it was just pissing me off.
"Are you ladies ready to order?" The waiter came up to us.
"I'm good." We looked at her as she said what she wanted.
"I'll be back when your food is ready." He walked off going on about his day.
"I lost myself"
"Why didn't you stop him?" I asked really Wanting to know. She looked down.
"I promised you honesty. So I felt that you needed to be disciplined because you never did what I wanted you to do. I wanted my way at the time and when I seen how badly you were hurt. That made me want to sober up and give you my life." She looked up at me when she was finished.
"Disciplined? Are you serious? I can't believe you, I gave my life up to take care of one of yours. I worked my ass off just so you could beat my ass every fucking night. Then I'll have to turn around and feed you? For you to call me out my name and disrespect me." She stopped me to say something.
"You could've told me that."
"I did multiple times but you we're to busy beating me with the closest thing to you." I said.
"I-I"
"I deserve so much more..don't I? I've been grateful I've been forgiving. I had another woman lift me up from damage you caused. Do you know how much that hurt me? I seen my dad die man and caused my brothers death and couldn't even heal I had to raise a kid instead. You know what I can't do this. If you would like to get to know Kaykay fine. But I will be there every second you spend with her." I got up and put some money on the table for her for and the tip. Then I proceeded to leave heading to my car.
I got out of the car and went inside my house into my room. I seen Kane still laying down guessing he was still sleeping . I went in my closet and got out my work clothes.
"What's wrong?" Kane asked still laying down.
"Ok so I went to go talk to my mom an-"
"She still with ole dude?" He asked I shook my head no.
"I can't believe she said that she let that over grow ass man beat me because she thought I needed discipline. She threw her self on my shoulders because she couldn't handle herself. She was mad I was out all night WORKING buying groceries paying bills and catering to Kaykay needs. For what I seen it didn't look like no one was gone do it for us. She didn't have a damn job so I stepped up. Is that not what I was supposed to do?" I turned around and looked at him.
"Nah you did the right thing."
"Then what did I do wrong? I don't understand. I did everythin-"
"Summer this is your last day..let whatever feelings you have out and get back on your feet." Kane told me and I smiled.
"I don't like you."
"Sound familiar?" He asked.
"Yea sound like something I would say." I threw a shirt at him and he laughed.
"You gone be ight little one." I handled my business and got dressed. When I looked at Kane he was sleep again. I held the phone up taking a picture sending it in the group chat with everyone saying.
"He's feeling better guys!"
I felt the house and made my way to work for the rest of the day.
I got them parts out! it's 3:56Am ð
