Here I was with Malik after my class and my friend Trina came up to me with her new guide. When I looked at them they looked alike.
"Are you guys brothers?" I asked.
"Yeah I'm Machi." He said. Malik didn't say anything. He wasn't a man of many words he was fine though. I mean real fine. He was tall and stocky. He had this weird with these braids. He was fine as shit.
"Malik here is trying out for the football team." Trina said looking at me this girl was always trying to play match maker. I didn't want Machi. I had my eyes on Malik.
"I hope you make it. We need some good players this season. I'm trying to go the whole season." I said.
"We will see." Machi said and smiled at me.
Malik and I had a few classes together and I was talking to him and he just wasn't saying anything back. It was like he was mute or something.i know his ass can talk. So when we went to lunch we sat at my table and I introduced him to my friends. Again he said nothing so I just started talking and then a few of us made plans to go to the game lounge tonight.
"Did I do something to you?" I asked Malik.
"No."
"Okay Frost." I said. "You know what no I am the nicest person here and you over here giving me this cold shoulder and I don't like it."
"You will get over it we just gotta last this week and then we are done. We never have to speak again and honestly that be cool with me because you talk too fuckin much and are annoying as fuck." He said and honestly my feelings were hurt but I didn't let it show. Just continued to be me.
I walked home and entered my house my mom she was at work avoiding home and here I was to deal with it. My daddy he owned a car shop. A few years ago a motor fell on him and he had surgery which lead to pills which led to everything else. I walked in and my daddy was there on the couch needle in his arm staring at the ceiling. Nobody knew I dealt with this. He wasn't dead just high as fuck. I walked up to my room and changed my close. I walked to the Internet lounge and pretended like life was great. I looked around and saw Machi.
"Your not mean like your brother are you?" I asked.
"Hell no. Wanna play?" He asked. I sat down and I whooped him.
"You suck." I joked.
"Yeah I only came out cause I wanted to meet new people. Our parents just moved here so here I am."
"Well you met me. I'm Zari."
"Zari can I be honest with you? I hate it here. I miss my old school and feel like I'm not fitting in like look at you everyone loves you." He said jokingly.
"Can I tell you something nobody knows.' I asked because I need to say it before I bursted.
"Who I'm gonna tell." He laughed.
"My mom works three jobs to avoid home and my dad's on drugs bad. Like I walked in on him with a needle in his arm staring at the ceiling. Some days I wish he just OD and let us live our lives. I hate going home that's why I pick so much up at school." I said.
"Damn that's deep. I can't even tell." He said.
"Good. Don't go telling nobody though." I laughed.
"I got you. Come on let's go to my house my mom would love if I brought you home." He laughed and I went with him.
