Promise Point Of View
" You already know what time it is , don't even play me on that little shit " Rich said as he leaned against his door shirtless talking to his little girlfriend. Her name was Riley and she was from Jamaica . Her accent was strong and her hips were fully developed . Riley had a big butt along with her chest . Her hair was long and she was pretty , sometimes she made me feel self conscious about my body .
" But Rich , you always do that shit man . I've been doing this with you for some years and you still acting like a little boy . You is 29 years old and still trying to discard me like I'm some hoe " Riley said and I fiddled the brown bag in my hand . I was here to give Rich a package my dad wanted to give him . My dad told me not to open it because he don't want me seeing what he does . I already know . I'm not stupid .
" You are a hoe but look , come back tomorrow " Rich told her with a serious look and Riley scrunched up her face . She walked towards her car with a pissed off attitude and accidentally bumped into me .
" My bad girl . Congratulations on your graduation though " Riley said and I smiled .
" Thank you " I said and she got into her car , driving off.
Walking past Rich , I shook my head . His face crowned into a smile like he was just reading my thoughts . He always does this to Riley and Riley is actually a nice girl . She's dumb enough to keep coming back to Rich when he treats her like shit .
" Ew don't smile at me " I said and placed the brown bag on the counter .
" Ew don't smile at me " Rich said mocking me in his accent . I rolled my eyes as I grabbed an apple out his fruit basket . " You sound like ya mama "
" Jasmine looks like her more though " I said biting into the apple as Rich opened the package . He started fiddling his hand in the bag and he bought his finger up with white substance on it . He tasted it and nodded .
" Anyways , are you going to come to my graduation next week on Friday ?" I said and Rich looked at me with a shrug expression . He looked nude today without his glasses or hat . He usually didn't wear a shit with his bird chested ass .
" I might . I'm supposed to take Riley to the clinic next week " He said making my mouth form into an O shape . Rich smacked his lips as he saw me laughing and covering my face .
" Man , she not pregnant . Don't even go there , ya heard me ? She just got the flu and shït , thinking I'm gone fuck her while she sick . Her ass can't have a baby no way " Rich told me making me smirk .
" Whatever . When she do get pregnant , I'm gone laugh . Belee that" I said , pointing my finger at him taking another bite out my apple .
" Don't steal my shit . That's my motherfuckin word , ya heard me . I don't walk about this bitch saying slay everytime I get my hair done "
" Shut up . My hair be on slay for real , you can't lie now . "
Rich shook his head as I kicked my feet up on his counter , biting into the apple .
" What you still here fah ? Go back home . I like being by myself "
" Yep so you can beat your meat " I said throwing the apple away and Rich threw a book at my head as I was getting up .
" What if I would've got brain damage ?"
" Get out mah house Promise "
I smacked my teeth and walked out his house . I got somewhere to be anyway .

" Mhm , you think you grown running everywhere with those fast ass little girls and that thug ass nigga you hanging with " My mom said as she came through the door as I was on the phone with my boyfriend , Rico.
" Man , mom your such a hypocrite . Look at daddy " I said , putting Rico on hold .
" You just don't know the hell I went through with your daddy " My mother said and my dad walked in . My mother turned her head and started to run upstairs . My dad ran after her making me raise my eyebrows . They so fucking childish and old as fuck .
" Mama stole dad's credit card cause he hid her vibrator " Jasmine said as she came through the kitchen door .
" Ew , what you know about a vibrator ? You only 14 " I said and she started to laugh .
" I won't tell as long as you won't tell " Jasmine said as she went to the fridge making me shake my head . I took Rico off hold and put the phone back to my ear .
" Damn , the fuck you put me on hold for ?" He yelled through the phone .
" Calm down , I was talking to my family members asshole " I said and he smacked his teeth . Jasmine raised her eyebrows at me overhearing the phone conversation.
" Whatever , be ready . I'm fin come get you " He said and I rolled my eyes .
" Alright ?" He said in a stressed voice .
" Yeah " I told him and ended the call. Jasmine shook her head as she sat next to me with an apple in her hand .
" Promise , you got to do better . I hang with his sister and I be at their house . Rico is no good . He's a liar and most of all , his dad is fucking nuts . Mr.Jackson is always yelling and shït , I take my ass home . Everytime he sees me , he just pauses . Rico always got some girl at his house or some shit . They don't be doing nothing but .. You need to break up with him " Jasmine told me . I let her cuss around me , who doesn't let their youngest sibling cuss around them ? I'm not her parent , I'm her sister .
" Jasmine , I'll break up with him when I see his true colors myself . Your my sister , your supposed to encourage my relationship "
" Not if he's treating you like shit and you don't even know it . He yelled at you over the phone for no damn reason . "
I got a text message on my phone from Rico indicating he was here and Jasmine sighed as she hopped off her seat . I got up too and walked outside . I got in the car and he kissed my cheek.
" Hey baby " Rico said as he started to pull out .
" Hey Rico , where we about to go ?" I asked .
" About to go to this cookout downtown . Your cousins there too "
" Sky and Mason ? "
He nodded his head .
" Rico , that's not good . Sky and Mason never got along ever since what happened when they were little . Mason lives with his dad and his dad changed him so much. Sky lives with her stepdad and her mom . Mason and Sky despise each other " I told him .
" The whole school knows that shit baby . I'm surprised no one blasted at the cookout yet , maybe they talking things over "
" Your naive as fuck . As soon as they start arguing , we are leaving "
" Man , whatever . You always think you run some shït . " He said with a mug on his face .
" I do " I told him with a cocky grin .
" What if I want to leave ?"
" You must don't know my dad ? He taught me how to Hotwire silly and how to beat a niggas ass . I like the second one better " I told him and he stared at me as I flipped my hair with a smile on my face .
Rico pulled up at the cookout and everyone and they mama was here . I got out the car along with Rico as we walked into the scene . People rushed up to me and gave me hugs . The usual . People really just know me because of my brothers and shït . Trying to get cool with me , thinking they gone get with my brothers .
" Wadup B " Sky said as she came next to me . Rico wrapped his arm around my shoulder as he grabbed a beer out the cooler on the table .
" Hey big cousin . What's good in the hood ?" I asked and she shrugged.
" Nothing , dad just got out of jail again . Nothing new " Sky told me making me shake my head .
" Baby , I'll be back , alright ?" Rico said as he popped open his beer can . I nodded and he walked away .
" Man , I can't believe you go with Rico . His fine self " Sky said making me chuckle .
" Mhm , he ain't all that girl . Anyways , you and Mason still beefing ?"
" Fuck Mason . He sold me out over my bitch ass daddy . But I did get the tattoos on my back to hide the scars "
" Let me see " I said and she stood up . She lifted her shirt and I saw all the beautiful quotes aligned perfectly on her back . " Check you out "
" It hurted like a bitch though "
" That's why I'm not getting mines no time soon "
The cookout was going good . Everyone was eating and having a good time . I got to talk with Sky more and see my bestfriend , Westly. Westly dad was a former NFL player and for some reason , her little sister oddly looks like my brother Jacob . Westly is cool though and when she comes around my parents , they stare at her extra hard . They so damn rude . Westly never got along with her stepmom like her other siblings did . Ever since she found out that wasn't her real mom , and that she was murdered , it killed her . I actually felt bad for her .
" Anyways , this food is good as fuck. Whoever cooked it should come to my kitchen even though Tisley ugly ass can cook a good ass meal " Westly blurted out loud making me laugh .
" You never liked her . Why ?"
" Because , it's something strange about her . My little sister Gigi , looks just like Jacob . Jacob is your brother . Isn't that strange ? Like she looks nothing like my father , more like my mother . Jacob also looks like my mother . I feel like your father and my step mom had a little affair " Westly said as she bit into her rib .
" But my dad told me that my mother and him was together at that time ? "
" Wait , then why does Tristan look just like us ? Your father was a hoe . He probably fucked my real mom and my step mom . He cheated on your mom " Westly told me making me stand up.
" Who the fuck is you disrespecting like that though ? That's my fucking daddy and my mother . That's disrespectful. You better fix yourself before I fix it for you" I said yelling at her . Bestfriend or not , this bitch about to catch these hands .
Rico heard my voice and ran down to the table .
" Bitch , your father was a hoe and your mother was a dumb bitch for sticking with him " Westly yelled standing up.
Rico grabbed me and I reached back , punching Westly . Rico pulled me away from her and Westly grabbed my hair as Rico tried to distance me away from her.
" Bitch , you better get the fuck off my little cousin" Sky said as she snatched Westly up by the hair and started to throw punches on her . Westly started to fight back and I overpowered Rico , to help my cousin fight that big ass bitch . Everyone was filming with their cameras .
" Bitch , you touch my blood , I'm gone fuck you up " Sky yelled as she threw Westly into the table and Rico held me down against his chest leaving me unable to jump in the fight . Why is he protecting me from beating a bitches ass ?
Sky started to punch Westly in the face and some girls started to jump in . Mason came rushing down to the fight and pushed the girls off Sky . I got loose and ran towards one of the girls who tried to jump my cousin . I slung her to the floor by her hair and started to punch her in the face .
" Get the fuck off my sister before I punch the fück out of y'all " Mason yelled as he picked up a girl and tossed her to the side like some trash .
" Bitch , you thought you was gone jump my cousin " I yelled as I banged her head into the sidewalk and she started to leak out her head .
Westlyana came and grabbed me by my hair. She dragged me unto the lawn and pounded her fist into my head . Her big ass was over me and tried to sit on me . I kicked her off me and stood up . My fist stared to connect to her face and I grabbed her by her hair , throwing her to the floor . I was punching her in the nose so hard , it started to bleed .
Gunshots started to ring out and I remember hitting the ground hard.
Is this a good start?
