*Indigo

After Aaliyah ran upstairs, everyone's attention went towards the door. They was looking at Naomi, but she was looking at her phone. She looked up from her phone and seen everybody looking at her. She lifted her hand up and waved.

" Come sit, Aaliyah be back down in a minute..." I said and she sat in the big rocking chair

"So what's your name??" Juice asked her

"Naomi..." she said fidgeting with her fingers

"Do like girls??" T asked her

"Yeah..." she answered looking down

"Do you like Aaliyah??" Storme asked looking at her

"No, we are friends..." she said nervously

"Y'all quit. Y'all are making her
nervous..." Mari to Storme, Juice and T

"We just fucking with her..." Juice said to Mari

"Don't mind us..." T said to Naomi

"Aye but watch this..." T said tapping Naomi's arm

"AALIYAH COME ON, WE BOUT TO PLAY UNO!!!" T yelled to Aaliyah

"Ooowwweee I'm finna kick some ass..." she said coming downstairs cheesing and Naomi was laughing

"Y'all lying..." she hitting the last step

"No, here they go..." Sanjay said pulling some out Joey's purse

"Right on..." Aaliyah said coming down and sitting beside Naomi

"Y'all we gone need a bigger stack cuz we got hella people..." Sanjay as she mixed up the cards

"Liyah go in the top drawer in our room and get the uno cards..." Mari told Liyah

She got up and headed to upstairs to our room. I guess she went into the wrong top drawer cuz she screamed😂😂

"YALL HOES ARE NASTY!!" She yelled downstairs which made Mari and I laugh
She came downstairs, with a stale face, and uno cards in her hand.

"Went into the wrong top drawer, huh..." I said as Mari laugh

"Y'all are freaky..." she said passing Sanjay the card

We started playing the uno game around the table. Everybody was on the floor, and Mari was glad she was able to take that big ass hoodie off. While playing the games I kept seeing my phone light up. I took a glance at it and it's Amanda. She kept texting me but I wasn't even responding. I'm spending time with my people.

"You not going to answer that??" Mari asked looking at me

"Nope, it's not important..." I said pulling out a card

She nodded and continued playing. Juice and Aaliyah was finna kill each other over the
game😂. Mari ended up reversing the game and Aaliyah was tagging Juice ass.

"Mari you cooking??" Juice asked looking at her

"Do y'all want me to??" Mari asked looking up at them

"Hell yeah..." mostly everybody said

"What y'all want??" She asked smiling

"Ooouu, can you do the chicken
sandwich??" Naomi asked looking at Mari

"Yeah, I'll do that..." she said then she looked at me

"I need you to go to the store..." she said to me

"Okay, what you need??" I said looking at her

"I need 3 packs of chicken breast, 4 packs of hamburger buns, and some to drink for everybody..." she said and I nodded

I grabbed the keys and headed to the door. Storme, T, Juice and Sanjay all followed me out the door to the car. I unlocked the door, we all jumped in and I pulled off.

"So, how's you and Mari??" T asked looking at me

"Honestly I don't know. We still haven't talked bout what happen. We seem fine, but we kinda aren't. She talks to me but I can tell she has distant herself from me..." I said

"I mean can you blame her. You are my cousin and I love you to death, but what you did was fucked up. You shouldn't have done nun of that. She's the one you love and she's pregnant bro. Her stressing isn't good for her or the baby. That other girl shouldn't get the time of the day out of you. I'm just being forreal..." Storme said really making me think

"Yeah, I talk to her and she said she felt like you didn't love her anymore. Which we all know that's not true. She loves you and she hates how everything with y'all is
going..." Sanjay said

"She always vent to Aja and Jilly, and she be telling them a lot of things that's been going on with y'all. She been telling them she tired of explaining herself to you. You listen to what she say but obviously you don't comprehend what she's saying to you. To be honest, that other chick shouldn't mean nothing to
you..." Juice said

"Amanda don't mean nothing to me..." I said to them

"Well it don't seem like it. You are breaking your girl's heart with this other chick. You spend more time with her than at home with your girl, the other chick gotta mean something to you..." T said looking at me

"She doesn't mean anything to me..." I said looking back at her

"That's what you should be telling and showing Mari that this girl don't mean anything to you..." T said and I just nodded

While driving I really sat and thought about everything that's being going on. I thought about everything they were saying. I've really fuck up. I did her wrong and I didn't even mean to. I never meant to be the one that's making her hurt like this. I see now, and I can admit. What I did was very fucked up. I feel so bad for all this shit I made her feel. Stressing wasn't something I wanted her to do. I love her too much to be doing this. I have to get my shit together. For myself, her and our unborn child.

For the rest of the ride we were quiet. When I pulled up to Walmart we all got out and went in. I started getting all the things Mari told me to get. In the mist of getting the stuff, we ran into Amanda.

"Hey..." she said walking up to me

"Wassup..." I said grabbing the stuff off the shelf

"I've been calling and texting you, you didn't see..." she said walking to me

"You know she got a girlfriend, right..." Juice said looking at her

"And who are you??" Amanda asked looking at Juice

"I'm her girlfriend's cousin. And who are you..." Juice said

"A pick me bitch obviously..." Storme said rolling her eyes

"Excuse me..." Amanda said looking at them

"Y'all chill out..." I said looking at them

"Look Amanda, that shit that happen the other night could've been avoided. I wasn't supposed to be with you when I know how my girl feels about you. So from here on out if it's not about work you and I can't conversate or nun of that..." I said and she looked at me with the saddest look on her face

"But Ind—..." she started but T cut her off

"Look shordy, whatever you thought y'all had ya didn't. Indigo has a a whole girlfriend and finna start a whole family. Dealing with you will fuck all that up for her. So either you take it or leave it..." T said looking at Amanda

"Whatever..." she said walking away

I shook my head and continued to get the stuff Mari told me to. Once I was done, we check out and left.
