Jo got three years after giving up names and his lawyer doing all he can do. I pray for him everyday, keep money on his books, and answer every call. That's all I can do.
I get home to a dirty ass kitchen, dogs sitting at the door, living room a mess. It's 10 at night and the kids still running around while Zoe in the room sleep. I cleared my throat before hitting her with a pillow. "Excuse me Zoe." She looked at me with an attitude. "What man?" It took everything in me not to slap her. "First of all I'm not a man. Second of all this my second day working 12 hours and I got another day of 12 hours. I come home to a dirty ass house and the kids loud as hell running around. You been off the last two days and you couldn't clean up this damn house, you couldn't cook? You didn't even let the dogs out, you lucky they didn't shit and pee through the damn house Zoe. Have the kids ate?" She laid back down and closed her eyes. I threw another pillow. "They had snacks earlier." My blood boiled. "Earlier? Really? Snacks? You got money and you can cook. There's no reason they haven't ATE food. No damn reason. You trifling and you lazy. I done worked all damn day the least I could've came home to is quiet kids, a clean house and a bubble bath." She jumped off the bed. "When the fuck have I came home to a bubble bath Jas?! A fucking massage?!" I backed up. "Zoe when I get off before you I make SURE you come home to a cooked meal, your plate already fixed waiting on you. I even warm it if its cold before you get here. The house be clean, your bath be ran and your clothes laid out. You've gotten massages, feet rubs, head massages, all that. But I come home to this bullshit. You full of it." She stood there. "You a bitch. Get out my face yo." I grabbed some clothes and went to Diamond and Jo side of the house. I'll sleep with her tonight, she never complains. That's my little sister, she got me.
Shit with me and Zoe just haven't been the same. She's so distant and doesn't understand nothing that comes out my mouth. I can bitch all day and she hears nothing. Fuck it.
