"Aye Li can I talk to you real quick?" Asia asked me as soon as I walked in the house I followed her to the kitchen "fire outfit by the way" she said

"You know I do my thang time to time," I said joking "wassup though?" I asked

"Okay so I've been thinking you know" she tailed off

"Of what?" I asked

"Armani" she replied

"What about her?" I asked already knowing

"The fact she can't stand my guts we the only people that can keep are daddy legacy alive we all my daddy got left and I just want to be on cool terms with her for a long time I always wanted a sibling and when I found out I had a sister I'm was geeked up you hear me" I nodded "but my mama use to put stuff in my head like your daddy side of the family don't care about you they wanted me to abort you and so on and so on. So on their birthday the reason I crashed it was because of what I been told I wanted to ruin them as they did me" she finished off

"Damn I didn't know that and I'm sorry I was hard on you I never experienced what you went threw growing up but don't worry it everything will fall in place" I said

"Yeah, you right when the next time she'll be out here?" She asked

"Summer break" I said "one month away" she nodded "but for now I can be your lil sister" I gave her the puppy dog eyes

"Of course" we laughed

"But on a better note I got me some cuddy last night" I said

"Unun with who?" She asked

"Remember the dude from the hospital?" I asked

"The one that almost let you get jumped the same one that walked away from you?" She asked

"Dang girl you just gone go in like that" I laughed "but yeah him" I said

"Mhm girl just be careful" she said

"Mhm come on now why are you doing all that?" I asked

"He ain't the one for you" she said

"And why do you think that?" I asked going into the refrigerator

"Listen baby if a man truly loves you that behavior would've been different listen it's one thing my mama told me if a nigga truly love you he will never put you in a position where you fucked up in the long run or embarrass you and baby he did both" she said making her pancakes

"My daddy tells me that all the time but sometimes it's better to understand somebody before closing the door completely on them" I said

"And your right but that ain't it I'm tryna tell you" she said

"Asia you don't know what you talking about literally are relationship is going good, he has mommy issues which he puts on his girlfriends but I'm the type of girlfriend that will help a nigga rebuild himself as long as he tries" I said

"Is he trying?" She asked

"Bitch yes the fuck do you think I would've fucked him" I grabbed my juice and was about to walkout

"Wait hold on Li I'm not tryna make you mad and be down your throat like yo mama but I want you to be happy that's it and if you saying he changing then that's that I'm happy for you" she said I just walked out

"Stupid bitch" I said to myself walking to my room

I laid in my bed "aye pissy you know where the hellcat keys at?" Vell asked me

"You haven't seen me in two days you know ion know where them keys at" I replied

"Yeah speaking of two days where was you was you with ole dude?" he asked

"Vell please don't start" I said he sat on my bed

"Don't start what? Li that nigga twenty on you seventeen he only want one thing Li and I'm tryna save you cause the day you come home crying because on ole dude" he paused and looked me in the eyes "you think pops a problem I'm doing life you my baby sister I'm supposed to protect you at all cost and I'm gone do just that" he finished

"And I understand Vell and as you should but can you at least act like you like him for me" I pout "and if he disrespected me in a way of no return then it off with buddy head" I said joking the last part we laughed and Asia walked in

"What y'all talking about?" She asked

"Aye what about shorty you share that dorm with" Vell asked

"I done told you multiple times mr sir she is strictly dickly gay" she replied

"Me too" he said we all laughed "we a perfect match"

"Nah you stupid" I said

"As fuck" Asia said he waved us off "and the keys in the office" Asia said he walked out "I'm sorry about what happened in the kitchen" she said

I shook my head "it's cool" I said

"Can I ask you something?" She asked

"Yeah wassup" I said

"I promise this the last you hear me talk about yo relationship" she looked me in the eyes "why go back to him after what happened at the hospital?"

"Have yo ever felt empty inside?" I asked and she nodded "I never knew I was empty inside until we connected it's was like electricity" I smiled "whenever shit from his past is brought up it makes me sick to my stomach. I love him the way I love my daddy and brother and I can't lose neither of them just that alone make me" I closed my eyes and shook my head she rubbed my hand and I looked her in her eyes "I never told anybody this but one day I just walked out school and some weird dude snatched me up and took me into a abandoned house to rape and kill me but guess who came and saved me" she looked at me with sympathy in her eyes "it's not like I owe him my life but I know I owe him my love" I finished

"Wow Li" she stood up off my bed "I'm sorry that happened to you" she held her hands over her chest "I'm just a outsider looking in and I was judging a book by its cover" she said

"It's cool Asia I know where you was coming from you just want better for me" she smiled

"I got some extra pancakes if you want some I'm about to go to my dorm in a hour" she changed the subject

"How you like the college life?" I asked

"It's life you hear me getting coffee before class like in the movies" she squirmed "the parties man these Chicago mothafucka crazy" she chuckled

"What you studying?" I asked

"Criminal Justice" she replied

"Lawyer?" I asked

"Nah forensic" she said

"That's what's up" I said

"What about you have you applied for colleges yet?" She asked

"Yeah USC, Spelman and Clark Atlanta that's it so far" I said

"Okay then what you gone study?"

"Since last summer I took business classes I wanna study nursing or something" I said

"Nurse Li I can see you now" we laughed "I ain't about talk yo head off" she walked to the door "love you" she said I said it back
