Oh yeah! Y'all the best! I really do appreciate how into this book y'all are and how much you guys are supporting it. Thank you! 😭😎 (that's my baby Odell up there by the way)

Evi.

Everyone sat silently, spread away from each other at the dinner table. Amir had cooked once again. Amir and Julian sat on opposite ends and Amir only glared.

I ate my pasta slowly, not wanting to say the first words to anyone. I chewed at a less than usual speed as I tasted shrimp. I shrugged as it taste even better with the well cooked and seasoned angel hair pasta.

That was until my memory snapped and my eyes widened. I looked towards Jue as he was nearly done but you could tell he knew something wasn't right about what he was eating, but he was too busy watching Amir scolds.

"Jue." I whispered. The stare broke between him as he looked at me. I pointed down in my bowl to hint for him to look in his. Once he looked, he snapped.

"You son of a bitch!" He shouted, throwing the pasta inside the bowl onto Amir.

"Julian!" Chenille yelled, surprised and bewildered by his actions.

"He put shrimp in mine too mama! He knows I'm allergic!" Her attention turned towards Amir.

"Amir why would you do that!? Are you crazy!?"

"I wanted him to feel the same hurt!" Amir finally yelled. I stopped eating mines in case it was some sort of poison to it as well.

Jue stormed around the table to him as their mom stood up quickly. Jue's fist clenched as he swung on Amir swiftly. "You lovestruck bitch! I'd kill you!" He yelled as Amir stumbled out his chair but on to his feet.

It wasn't long before they were tussling in the kitchen, knocking things off the counters as they both blew blows towards each other– some delivering, some not. Their mom pulled on Amir's arm, yelling for them to stop.

I got up, hoping I could help. I tried pulling Jue away too. Amir got knocked to the floor and I was sure Jue was going to take this opportunity. I jumped on his back quickly, wrapping my arms around his neck tightly to get him to stop.

"Get off me Evi!" He said but his words slurred. I turned his face to the side, noticing him drooling to a small degree.

"Jue stop and find your benadryl. Now!" Chenille demanded, looking at him sternly but worriedly. He faced down at Amir once before stomping to his room all while I was still on his back.

I hopped off once he bursted into him room, going haywire looking for his medicine. His tongue hung from him mouth and was growing fatter by the moment. He scratched his eyes—they were beginning to puff.
