AMORE

020

I woke up to my phone ringing extremely loud and my head pounding.

"What?" I said with way more attitude than intended.

"Come outside."

"I'm not going to school me and Nia are sick."

"I know I got you something."

I got up and changed Nia's diaper popping a bottle in her mouth right as she started to fuss. I put my slippers on and made my way outside.

Briar was standing outside her car with a bag of food coffee and some flowers.

"I got a bunch cause I didn't know what everyone would want and I got your coffee. Oh, the flowers are for Nia but you can accept them on her behalf."

"Thank you, bitch. Come in."

She set the bag down and my nosey brothers ran over.

"I get first pick and Angelo your not getting any until your dressed."

"I don't even have school for another two hours."

"I don't care at least put some pants on."

I looked in the bag and got a mini chocolate croissant a bagel and some hash browns.

"Where'd you get this from?"

"I don't know the place just looked good."

"Well thank you."

I gave her a quick kiss but she pulled me in for a deeper one.

"Ehem."

I turned around and saw my mom walking over with her arms crossed.

"She brought all of us breakfast."

"Oh thank you honey."

I continued eating my bagel and my mom looked at me funny.

"Yes?"

"Why aren't you dressed."

"Do you hear my voice? I'm sick as shit."

"I'll watch Nia, your going to school you've missed to much."

"Ugh okay here."

I gave her the baby and ran downstairs. Briar followed me and I started stripping without even having an outfit.

"What are you wearing?"

"Black pants and a sage hoodie."

I grabbed my sage green cargos a tiny black shirt and a black zip up I stole from briar. I threw my hair up in a messy bun and put on some mascara and chapstick.

"Can you grab my shoes."

"Which ones."

"I don't know whatever matches this."

I brushed my teeth and she brought me some shoes and socks.

"We look like a couple."

"Cause we are one to everyone else?"

"Oh yeah."

"Sometimes I think you've been hit with a basketball one too many times."

"Probably."

"Let's go."

I grabbed my bag and we went back upstairs. I kissed the baby and my mom and yelled bye to the boys and then we left.

"I'm gonna cry."

"Why?"

"I forgot my coffee."

She made an u-turn really fast and sped back to my house.
