Hello my beautiful queens and kings! We are back once again for the last and final time. Yes, I said it, the last and final time because, sadly, this series is coming to an end. Even though things were good in the beginning, things also started to get shifty and, now, sad in the end. So buckle up because this final chapter is finna get real messed up. Now where did we all leave off?
My dad was dropping off my so-called friend (Dre) to his home. He kindly walked me home from school without me even having to ask or throw hints. Now, like I told y’all before, I didn’t wanna catch feelings for him and he mess around and play in my face but no sooner did I realize that the girls walking by us (from part two of my story) were laughing for a reason…
After my dad and Dre left in the car, I went inside with my mom. I was thinking about how he had smiled at me, which gave me butterflies because why is your smile so perfect and white, like you have some veneers on, even though he didn’t. Anyways, my mom asked me more questions about him, and I told her more about him as we were preparing for dinner and getting freshened up for the night. Just then, I got a text from Dre saying, “Yo, D, I’m so nervous in the car right now” with the laughing and scared emoji. I replied, “Well, you gotta put your big girl panties on because I know my dad is going to drill you with questions, so be ready.” We continued to text back and forth for a bit and then my mom peeped in to tell me to hurry up and put my phone away so I could finish helping with dinner. I sent my last message to him, and he seemed to stop his reply…the three bubbles went away…which meant that he was having that talk with my dad. I guess his phone could’ve died, or he just didn’t want to text me back, which would have been fine, too.
Finally, after 35 minutes passed by, Dre texted me back saying, “Yoo, D, we gotta talk at school tmr.” I immediately thought, “Oh God, what did my dad say or do for this boy to be texting me this?” I responded back, “Oh,God, what happened? Did the man scare you or something?” But he didn’t respond. I was left on delivered for an hour which meant something had to have happened for him not to respond to me. I told myself to sleep it off and that he’d text me in the morning with what happened or he’d just tell me at school.
As I’m getting ready for school the next morning I look to check my phone just to see that Dre had not messaged me back. I say to myself, “It’s cool, I’ll just see this child at school.” As soon as I get to school I see Dre from a mile away without even having to look for him because he’s so noticeable. He approached me with a straight face like something was bothering him. I asked him, “What’s wrong? What happened?” and he ignored me. He didn’t say a thing to me the WHOLE day, so I finally texted my dad asking him what he did or said to Dre for him to be acting weird, and my dad didn’t respond either. So then I had my pops and Dre not speaking to me.
I was just so irritated. I wondered what I did for this to be happening to me. Dre finally came up to me and said, “I don’t think I’m going to be talking to you again because of the conservation that your pops had me with me.” I asked him what my dad had said and come to find out that my dad told him he doesn’t want Dre around me anymore because he doesn’t want him breaking my heart and playing my face, and he expects Dre to tell me all this starting today. When I heard this coming from Dre’s mouth, I immediately went off because what the heck? Who is my dad to tell me who my friends should and shouldn’t be. My eyes got teary and Dre noticed, so he hugged me and told me that everything was going to be okay and that he’ll still be here if I needed anything…he’d just keep his distance so he wouldn’t cause any trouble between me and my dad.
Finally, the last bell of the day rang. My dad ended up picking me up from school. I got in the car and didn’t say a word to him. He asked me how school was and I told him “good” but stayed quiet otherwise. As we got closer to home he asked me if I had talked to Dre today. I decided to get straight to the point and ask why he would say and do something like this. My dad looked confused, so I told him what Dre told me, and COME TO FIND OUT, Dre was supposedly lying. I wasn’t sure who to believe in this situation. I asked my parents if I could go on a walk to clear my mind, and they said yes.
The moment I walked outside I looked to the left and saw Dre walking with another girl home with his arms wrapped around her neck, smiling, just like he did with me the day before. That’s when I realized everything. I was broke, hurt, confused, upset, and aching. I didn’t know what to think and came to find out that I did get played. I got my feelings hurt, as well. Little does he know he was just living in my world for a very short time, so karma’s going to hit him where it hurts.
