Brielle
March 13
12:10 pm
As if this weekend wasn't stressful enough, I was going through it today. From waking up two hours late because somehow my charger stopped working and my phone died, to getting to school late, to my hair not wanting to cooperate so I wore it in a messy bun and now the microwave didn't wanna work today so I could hear my food.
"I swear I'm so over this" I muttered while putting my food back into the microwave for the third time, this time setting it on five minutes.
Once I did so, I leaned forward on the table it sat on and let out a frustrated breath. I just wanted to eat, that's it. Why make it more complicated for me than everything already is
"You good?" I could hear a voice say causing me to look back.
It was Kyran
Surprisingly he didn't seem to be high, just the same regular, mean looking Kyran as usual
"By okay, if you mean did I get over that shit show of a dinner the other night? If so then the answer is no"
"It wasn't even that bad"
"For you. Because you don't care about shit. But I do care and I care that your mom probably hates me"
"My momma do not hate you. Chill"
"She does"
"She don't so shut up with that stupid shit" he bluntly and rudely told me "you already know my momma gotta be dramatic bout stuff then she good. And she already had her dramatic moment so she good now"
"It's wayyy different when her favorite child is involved"
He kissed his teeth while I shrugged "I'm serious, for some reason she believes you are this innocent virgin Angel that does no wrong"
"That's what she want y'all to think but she know I be fuckin"
I rose my eyebrow and he chuckled a little "she know I USED to be fuckin"
"You don't have to change nothing to the past tense. I'm pretty sure you still are"
"I'm not though"
"You don't have to lie"
"Ain nobody lyin'. I ain fuck with nobody else since I was entertaining you"
"Yeahhhh.. well I guess you can go back to doing what you do since we don't talk nomore" I responded as I checked on my food
"I could.... But that don't excite me nomore"
I took my food out which was now magically hot as shit now "Well what does excite you?"
"You"
I opened my mouth to say something but stopped and sighed. I peeped somebody walk over to the area where we were and when I realized it was Lashaun.
We made eye contact for a quick second before he looked at Kyran, made a small smirk and went over to the vending machine. I rolled my eyes causing Kyran to look back and then back at me
"Y'all ain gotta get quiet cause I walked in. Everybody already know y'all fuckin" lashaun childishly said while smiling, putting his money into the machine
"We're not so chill out! Stop being stupid"
"I thought I already beat up ass before" Kyran casually asked lashaun
He picked his chips out of the vending machine and looked back at us
"You snuck me. And you ain even have that same energy with my boy when he had that gun in yo face bragging bout fuckin on yo sister"
"But where yo boy at now? Hiding out in Miami from his opps while his momma clean them bullet wounds. If the only thing he seemed to accomplish this far is fuckin my sister ima let him have it. And I ain snuck you at all. But I ain gotta prove shit to you"
"Let's just go" I told Kyran but lashaun started talking again
"Well fight me again right now. Or you can only fight when you can sneak me?"
Kyran laughed, looking while lashaun took his bookbag and hoodie off
"I wish you could see how stupid you look" Kyran told him while he grabbed my arm, getting me to walk ahead of him
"What? You scared now?" Lashaun tried to instigate, getting loud and one of the administrators walked in
"What's going on in here?" The woman asked, looking around "is everything okay in here?"
"Yeah" Kyran answered with a grin, finding this hilarious "he just going through some stuff at home and needed to vent"
My eyes traveled over to lashaun while the administrator looked concerned
"Do you wanna go to the counselor"
"Oh my gosh" I laughed while walking off and Kyran followed behind me "you know he's still gonna wanna fight you. Probably even more now"
Kyran shrugged
"Catch me outside of school. What I look like fighting in school?"
"Well what if he just ran up and hit you?"
"Then ima defend myself but you see he ain did shit but take his bookbag off and look stupid. He'll be Ight"
I nodded as we continued walking through the cafeteria.
Surprisingly he came over to the table with me, being that he really didn't come sit with us anymore after the whole big fall out. Meanwhile kinsley sat there in her seat dancing to music in her headphones
Kyran picked up some of her fries out of her McDonald's bag before sitting down which caught her attention. She then looked at the both of us, stopping her music
"Oh... sooo y'all finally back taking again?"
"No" I answered, taking my seat
She made a face like she didn't believe me
"Mhhhkay"
"I'm serious"
She and Kyran looked at each other, practically communicating without saying anything which I hated with a passion when they did that
"You know what?" I pointed between the both of them with my fork "I don't know what type of twin telepathy y'all be doing but stop it"
"We not even doing nothing" kinsley laughed
"Yes y'all are. And y'all know it"
They looked at each other again and this time Kyran chuckled. I rolled my eyes
"You two are annoying.. VERY"
"On God I'll beat that nigga ass forreal!" I could hear lashaun's voice carry through the cafeteria
I deeply sighed and ate my food
"Somebody must've had a bad weekend" kinsley said with a laugh, opening her burger and bit it
"No... I had a bad weekend" I pointed at myself, he's just angry and bitter for no reason"
"You still worried about my momma?" Kinsley asked me, finding it funny "girl that woman do not care. She'd rather Kyran be with somebody like you anyways. You just had to let her be dramatic first"
"Y'all momma is not as dramatic as y'all try to make it sound"
They both stopped what they were doing to look at me
"Wassup BeBe, CeCe and Penny" Jeremiah childish ass greeted us as he came to the table with Aj
We all greeted him and Aj while they sat down and Jeremiah of course had something to say
"Kyran and kinsley, y'all know it's disrespectful to call y'all uncle by his name"
"You know what" kinsley squinted her eyes at him "I wonder if yo momma ever considered aborting you when she was pregnant and if so, why didn't she?"
"She probably thought about it. But if there was no me, y'all world wouldn't go around"
"I think I'd be pretty fine" I politely said making him kiss his teeth
"I know you a whole damn lie. You can't go a day without talking to me"
"I could if I want to"
"Brielle you talk to Jeremiah more than you talk to me" kinsley chimed in "and me and you talk a lot"
"Only because I couldn't tell you about Kyran at the time. That's the only reason why I was talking to him more"
"Before Kyran too... unless yall been secretly talking for years"
"Oh you ain know?" Kyran asked kinsley with a smile, tryina be funny. She rolled her eyes
"Yeah and you think Brielle can keep a secret away from me for THAT long"
"I'm just so glad everybody knows what I can and can't do" I shrugged
"Cause you kinda predictable" Kyran said to me
"I am not predictable. Okay. Y'all are the predictable ones. Kinsley, within the next three to five business days you'll find a new boo and a week later you'll cut him off cause it's something about him that you don't like. Kyran, you probably got 5 or 6 new hoes on your phone right now and Jeremiah, you and Kaleia gonna be right back together soon. Whether you believe it or not"
Jeremiah kissed his teeth, Kyran shook his head, kinsley made a face and Aj just laughed
"First of all I'm staying single" Kinsley waved her hand "I'm not worried bout these niggas"
"Ion even got hoes" Kyran said to me
"And I'm glad you think you know what me and Kaleia gone do. We don't even talk at all"
"Speaking of..." Kinsley looked past Jeremiah and I looked
Kaleia walked over to the table looking straight at me. I was thinking she was gonna go up to Jeremiah but she came to where I sat
"Can I talk to you for a second?"
"You wanna talk to me?" I asked to be sure. She nodded
I exasperated, standing up and walked off with her just to see what she wanted. I followed her outside the cafeteria and once we stopped walking, I crossed my arms
"Look, I know you might not wanna talk to me right now because of what I did and how I went off on you about Jeremiah, but I just... I really do feel bad and I wanted to apologize for what I did Brielle" she immediately started talking
"Kaleia.." I started to speak but she kept going
"I was just upset, insecure and most of all I just missed Jeremiah. And I let all these stupid ass thoughts get to me and jealousy took over for no reason at all"
"Kaleia we all grew up together. You know how close me and Jeremiah been before and during y'all relationship. So you think it was gonna change after? I look at him like a brother"
"I know that. But I wasn't thinking like that"
"I don't know why. And even if you did think like that, why wouldn't you just come and talk to me instead of making shady comments to Jeremiah, looking at me funny and confronting me in front of everybody about messing with him and lying about being a virgin"
"Which was completely wrong! And I genuinely apologize. I wish I could take back the other day but I can't. I should've just talked to you but I went the childish route. I know what I did was wrong so I'm saying to you, face to face, I'm sorry Brielle."
I nodded "I accept your apology. I understand how much you really like Jeremiah and yeah you get jealous but I promise you, we will NEVER be anything more than friends."
She nodded, seeming to feel better "thank you. And I know you may not ever wanna be cool with me again and that's fine. But I just wanted to get that out and show you how sorry I am"
"It's not that we won't ever be cool again, but we'll have to build that friendship back"
"And that's fine with me because I really do miss y'all"
"I miss you too. But it was just a fucked up situation. But we talked and now everything is clear... so....." I told her before there was an awkward silence "I'm... gonna go eat my food, before it gets cold. So I guess I'll talk to you later" I pointed towards the cafeteria
Kaleia nodded "okay" she responded before we both went our separate ways and I headed back to my seat at the lunch table to eat my food.
