I woke up the next morning at 6:30. My bus came at 7:36. I got dressed, did my hair, and hygiene thing and went downstairs to watch tv. The reason why i get up so early is so that i can atleast watch half of one of my favortie morning shows and this morning "Arthur" was on. Thank goodness by bus stop was at the end of the corner, so that if i was ever running late, if i left af 6: 35, i could catch the bus.
School was school, filled with childish ass niggas.And them dudes be wondering why i dont like, and its because they are ignorant. Im not saying all high school dudes are immature, but the ones at my school are. They are cool as friends, but as boyfriends, hell no. I rode the bus home thati used to ride when i used to live with my mom. I couldnt wait to meet this 'Daren' guy.
I walked into the house and saw a dude i knew from like 8th grade sitting on the couch. I just knew this couldnt be Daren.
"Uh, Mom whos this"
"My boyfriend Daren. Baby, meet my daughter Loraine"
"Daren!?"
"Loraine!?"
"I take it you guys already know each other" My mom said with a very confusing look on her face.
"Oh yea, Mom, uh he-"
"I used to live in her Grandmothers neighborhood. And we were good friends when she used to visit."
"What do you mean by "good friends'?"
"Come on now mom, get serious. His little niece and i were cool and when she wasnt their, we would just talk about the things in general. Definitely, nothing more than that."
The both of us were lying through our teeth. There is alot more where that came from. My mom really isnt the one to trip about things and go into detail, so she didnt ask any furher question. We sat in the living room trying to get better aquainted, or should i say catch up on the years. My little sisters Shay and Myanna were still in school, so it was just the 3 of us there. If it was not for the pre-k at Rosemont Elementary, we would be stuck here with a 4 year old running around and screaming.
After about a hour or so of talking, my mother decided that she needed to go to the store to get a pack of Newports, leaving Daren and me there, so we sould get used to each other.
"What the hell are you doin here!?" I asked as soon as my mom shut the front door. "I thought you moved to Florida for a job?"
"Well, things aint work out so i came back to Ohio. I didnt know Linda was your mom." He said.
"I hope not. Every time she would drop me off at my grandmas house, you were inside, or if you was outside, she didnt get out the car."
"Oh. But i cant believe this shit."
"Me either. We have to make a promise to keep the past in the past and never let anything seep out."
"Got it. So how have you "really" been? You still on them streets?"
"And you know it, but I am real careful, unlike when i first got on the streets."
"Yea because you were really out there, with how many abortions?"
"3, including yours."
Dear Diary,
Omg!!!!!! I cant believe my mom and Daren are together. Me and Daren used to fuck around hard. He is 30 and 5 years younger than my moms. What do she want with a young dude, well he actually isnt that young. But when i met Daren, i was 13 and going into the 9th grade, about to turn 14 in a few months.Daren was 28. His little cousin Chrissy and i were real cool, and we used to hang out everytime i went over there. But on the days Chrissy wasnt there, Daren and I fucked around real hard. Too hard to the point where i got pregnant. I was not 'bout to have a baby at 14, so Daren took me to the clinic and payed for my abortion, before anybody could tell i was pregnant. We swore on the Holy Bible that we would NEVER tell a soul about that. I loved Daren. I had gotten pregnant by 2 other dudes, and just like Daren, one payed, but the other didnt pay for my abortion. So i had to get my own money to abort the baby. So that's why i double protect with birth control and condoms.
Earlier this year, he told me he was going to Florida because he had a job offer. But seeing how it didnt work out, thats how he ended here. I just cant believe my mom is fucking with the man that i onced love and was pregnant by. But those feelings have left. Yes, i do have mad love for Daren, im just not in love with him. Foreal, though, i wonder if and when i am going to settle down with someone 'round my own age. I guess i love older dicks lol. Maybe i should try out the younger ones and give them some lessons.Hmmmm??? i dont know if they will be able to hang.
Well, my diary is sorta short today, so i will holla back
Sincerly,
Raine~
When i finished writing in my diary, I decided to call Chrissy.
"Whats popping' "
"Hey gurlie. You know who dis is?"
"Raine? I aint even look at my caller id when i answered. Whats been goin out with ya?"
"Nuttin much jus' doin Raine as usual."
"Oh yea, i know how that it is."
"So what you been up to? I aint talked to you in forever."
"I no rite, you know im bout to have a baby in November."
"OMG, I didnt know that. I wonder why your uncle didnt tell me."
"When you see my uncle."
"Oh girl let me tell you. He is my moms new "boyfriend". "
"Are you serious. I bet your jealous aint you?" She said and i could tell she was smiling.
"Yes girl, im mad but he was like a uncle to me, and i never looked at him that way." Yea right. What is there to be jealous of when i had everything she gon' get, plus more. If anything she should be jealous. "So yea girl, we gon' be like cousins, and we can really hang."
"I know man. But we have to catch up."
Chrissy and i talked for almost 2 hours. Thank goodness Daren gave me her number. l had to refresh my memory why Chrissy was ma bitch, because honestly, i dont associate with alot of females out of family,but Chrissy is mad cool.
June is going to be wild, and the rest of the summer to come. I only have 3 more days left of school so that i can take my finals, and i am done with this year. The summer time is full of make-ups, break-ups,knock-ups and lock-ups and it is calling my name.
