Living In A Lie
“Hey y'all’’
As I walked in the door of my sister’s room. My 2 cousins were sitting on the bed watching tv while my sister does my other sister's hair, they had come over for the weekend to spend more time with me, but my other cousin (cause her mom doesn’t like her coming to the "ghetto".) So as I'm sitting on the bed my sister says that there was this party that they wanted to go to, at first I wasn't feeling it because something told me that we were really going to no party. When we were getting ready, I looked at them and said “Are you sure we're going to this party?" My sister looked at me and said, “Are you sure you wanna go?” Now she was just being funny, so I flipped her off.
So boom my mom was in her room and Cheyenne, my sister, had asked me to ask her. I must have looked at her and said “hell nah, you ask her. I'm not finna get yelled at’’. Then I had told my cousin to go because she does say yes to her. So, when she went to ask her, she was scared. I swear I was laughing and stuff but she was like, ‘’Auntie can the girls go to my house for the weekend please’’, and she was like why didn’t they come to ask for themselves, but yea they ango but tell Christiana she gotta clean her room first. She walked back in the room and said she said yes, and so I get the Lyft, reminds you it was getting dark so I get it, and then it comes we get in and start driving. I put my AirPods on and start listening to music. So boom, 10 mins later we still driving so I look at my sister and my cousin in the back. It was 4 of us, my other sister was in the passenger seat and I'm like "y'all he's tryna kidnap us cause we've been in the car for super long" and she was like ‘’you're super dumb we not going to the party.’’ So I'm like "Where we going?" she said "we going to so and so house" and I'm like "smh are you serious?" When we got there it was boring at first, but then it got fun and interesting. But now i know living in a lie doesn't get you anywhere. I was trying hard to tell my mom but i wasn't bugging. She knows now but she takes us to where we need to go.
