Bailey fell asleep in my arms. We were laying under the blankets, on the balcony, under the stars for the second night in a row. I played in hair that was in two pigtails.

She's the real reason I came back to my aunts house after all that time. I couldn't deny that anymore. I couldn't keep lying to myself.

I thought that coming back here, I'd see her and know it was just some dumb ass crush and I was over it, but I was wrong. It's more than a crush.

When we were little, me and Bebe used to be together everyday. After school I would sit on the couch watching cartoons with Bebe just laying in my lap while I played in her pigtails. Jah jah hated it because when I wasn't around Bebe would cut up looking for a her Keykey.

It hurt so bad when my mama said Rick was gonna start teaching me how to be the man. He used to beat the shit out of me because I wouldn't do what I was supposed to. Trying to toughen me up he said.

It took me so long to stop having dreams and nightmares about her. I just wanted to see Bebe.

Now I gotta get out the game. I gotta get get shit straight. For Bebe.
