"Ava !!" I yelled as I walked through the door throwing my keys on the table
"Coming " she shouted back as she jogged down the stairs
"How was your day?" I asked as she walked up to me while planting a kiss on her forehead
"It was good, how was yours"?
"Kinda crappy, but i'm going out with the girls tonight so you can go to Brianna's if you want"
"Aye we lit" she jumped and started dancing "
"Go get ready, I'm gonna shower and then go to sleep, text me when you about to leave" I said while walking up the stairs to my room
"Okay " I heard her yell
It was only 8 o'clock, it took me an hour and a half to drive from the orphanage to my house since it was in Brooklyn and I live in Manhattan, I knew we weren't gonna go to the club until at least 10 o'clock so I'm just gonna bathe and sleep until then .
********************************
"Bang,Bang "
The only thing I heard as I woke up out of my sleep was pounding at my door, I knew it wasn't Ava because she had taken a cab to Abby's earlier.
Getting up off my bed I started walking down the stairs towards the apartment door only to hear whispering
"What the hell are you knocking so hard for?" said a hushed slurred voice
"I don't know and why the hell are you whispering?" asked another slurred voice repeated
"Yo-" the person went to say just as I opened the door
"Maya, Angel?" I asked confused " why are y'all here......and why are you guys whispering?
"We're here to go to the club, did you forget" Maya asked all while barging through the door with Angel sluggishly dragging herself behind her
"Ohh shit, what time is it?" I asked
"How should we know" Angel answered
"Are y'all drunk" I squinted at them
"N-"
"Yes" Maya yelled cutting Angel off then bursting out into a fit of giggles
"You bitch, I thought we said we weren't gonna tell her" Angel yelled
" Well you're walking around like you on drugs so I think that might have given you away and suck my dick" Maya replied
I rolled my eyes as I walked over to the cabinet across from them taking out a bottle of tequila and turning it at my head as I listened to them argue.
Knowing we aren't gonna make it to the club I continued drinking the bottle of tequila while looking at them fussing at each other wondering how they still manage to even be friends.
Having enough of them I got up and went back to the cabinet to take out a bottle of Hennessey and turn on some music which instantly made them stop arguing.
"Finally" I sighed as they walked over to me taking the bottles from my hand and putting it at their mouths
Putting on some dancehall music we started dancing until we eventually got tired, now drunk and exhausted we sat in the living room talking amongst ourselves.
"You know, I'm glad we didn't go to the club," I said tossing my head back
"Yeah me too, but what's up with that " Maya said
"What up with what," Angel asks turning to
her
"Her wanting to go to the club, we both know she doesn't like it"
"Ohh, that's true why did you sure you want to go to the club" Angel repeated the question as they both stared at me awaiting my answer
"The lady that showed up today looked like the lady in the pictures that my dad used to show me of my mom and although it's been a while since I saw any pictures of my mom I just know it's her, and I don't know how to feel about it, so I guess I just wanted to kinda forget about it" I replied wearilyly "It's like there's something in my head telling me she's my mom but I don't want to believe it"
"Why's that?" Maya asked
"It's just kinda hard to believe, I mean it's not every day someone who you haven't seen in 23 years just pops up" I shrugged
"Well I underway that but do you think you'd be willing to talk to her if she comes to see you again?"
"Yeah, I would I have a lot I want to ask her but I feel like as soon as I see her I'd forget what I want to talk about"
That was the truth, I felt like I had so much I had to say to her in my head but if I was to see how I would have nothing to address except the anger and hatred that I feel towards her. It's truly mind-blowing how you could miss someone you never truly know
"You do know that we're not going to remember any of this in the morning right" Angel mumbled as she laid her
head I'm Maya's lap
" That's perfect" I said smiling at her
"I'm-" Angel was cut off by the knocking on the door
"Umm, did y'all order food?" I asked looking at them
"No" they answered
*Knock , knock ,knock *
Came the sound of more knocks
"Coming" I yelled
Opening the door I saw I man standing there with his fist mid-air looking like he was about to know again
"Hi, how can I help you"
"Hey Lex," said a deep voice the making me perk up at the sound of the nickname that only one person in my entire life had ever called me
"Zy?" I said with a shaky voice
"Who is it" shouted both the girls
"I told you to stop copying me" I heard Angel whispered in an irritated tone
"No one " I shouted back interrupting their bickering
"Wha-why-how are you here?" I asked,
confused, laced in my tone.
"I needed to see you," he said with his hands stuffed in his pocket while back and forth on his feet"
"Needed to see me," I asked while pointing at myself "Did someone die or something"
"No, I just wanted to see you" he said
Just as he said that it's as if my whole being finally acknowledged that he was standing in front of me after 7 years.
We stood there staring at each other in complete silence until I felt my head start spinning, the liquor and the whole situation suddenly becoming too overwhelming, my eyes got dark as I felt my body falling towards the floor. I heard him shouting for me to wake up as Maya and Angel ran towards the door stumbling into each other trying to get to me until I finally passed out .
