Treat Me Like Somebody

•Chapter 1•

"Richard stoop!!" I said laughing while he tickled my stomach. "No, you going to learn how to stop talking shit?" "Yes! I promise." He stopped tickling her and kissed her on the lips. "Ok. Now daddy is about to take a shower. Now what I need you to do is to go to that little closet of yours and pick out a cute dress and some heels and get ready. I'm taking you out for your birthday." "But I need someone to watch Alicia." I said getting up off my bed. "Don't worry. I'll have my mom watch her. As for now go get ready. Oh yeah please don't wear any makeup." I bit my lip and watched him leave the room. I heard the front door shut so I checked to see who went outside. Richard had Alicia in her car seat walking to his car. After watching him back out of the driveway I saw my "so called" mother hop out of a man's car. I tried to see the man face but my mom was in the way. I watched him give her a lot of money as she gave him a kiss, then he drove off. "Erykah! Bring your black ass down here!" I heard my mom screamed as she walked through the front door. I rolled my eyes and walked down the stairs. "Who the fuck was in my house and where is my child?" "It was Richard ma. And Richard took her to his mom house for tonight." All of a sudden I fell to the ground with my face stinging. Did she really just slapped me? I looked up at my mom with tears filling my eyes. I noticed that her eyes was blood shot red. She's high. I slowly crawled to the couch and sat there with my hands covering the right side of my face where she slapped me. "Did I tell you to let him take my baby?" I shook my head no then she slapped me again. "Bitch when I ask you a question you answer it." I looked at her with tears running down my cheeks. "No ma'am." "So why you let him?" "His mother wanted to take time off your hands and let you relax." "Bullshit." Then she punched me in my mouth. I sat there sobbing. Why is she hitting me? "I know that she knows I don't take care of y'all trifling ass kids. Y'all ain't shit and you all will never be shit. Now get your dirty ass up and go clean yourself up. I got company coming over and they want you to please them." I looked over to her while she lit up a cigarette. "I'm going out tonight." "No the hell you not. Just because its your birthday don't mean shit. Stay your ass in that room and I'll bring the lingerie that you'll be wearing tonight." I got up from the couch and went upstairs to my room. I shut the door and slid down to the floor and cried. She never put her hands on me like that before. After about 15 minutes, I got up and went to get my phone. 6 missed calls and 11 messages. All of them were from Richard. Baby . ??? . Erykah . Are you ready? . Why aren't you answering my phone calls?. Bae . Baby girl answer me . I'm on my way . I'm stuck in traffic . I'll be there in 30 mins . Baby?. Omfg answer me . When I call again you better answer . Just as I was about to call him, he was calling me. "Hello." "Why haven't you been answering my phone calls?" I busted out into tears. "Baby what's wrong?" "My mom slapped me twice and punched me in my face." All of a sudden he got quiet. "Why she do that?" "I don't know. She came home mad because you were in here and you took Alicia to your mom." "Well can you still come out tonight?" "No she wants me to stay home because she is having company over and I have to please them." "Oh hell no. You are not giving your virginity to some man that don't care about you. I don't care. Get ready I'm still coming to get you." "Ok." He hung up as I went to the bathroom. I saw a huge bruise on the right side of my face. I winced in pain as I softly rubbed my swollen face. I brushed my teeth and washed my face as I felt something run across my foot. I looked down by the toilet and saw a big ass roach. Fucking dirty ass house. I sprayed it with Raid and watch it die. I can't wait to move out of here. This house is trifling as hell. I searched through the cabinet for my make up but I had forgot that my mom had it earlier today. I went to her room in search of my makeup bag but all I found was a gun and some busted condoms. Nasty bitch. As I walked outta her room, I tripped over my baby sister's bottle. Why is this out in the hallway? I picked up the bottle and took it to my room. I checked all over my room but I couldn't find it. "Ma do you know where's my makeup bag?" No answer. I went downstairs to see that she was gone. Omfg where is she and where is my bag man. A man came from the kitchen fixing his clothes. "Oh hello there miss......." "Where is my mom?" He started laughing. What the fuck he laughing for. I am serious. "Your mother ran a couple of errands. Now your the one who is supposed to be pleasing me right?" "I don't know who your talki-" "Bitch shut the fuck up and get down on your knees." He slapped me and pushed me down on the ground. He tried to rip my clothes off but I fought him off of me. I ran upstairs to my room and I grabbed my phone to call Richard. "Hello? You ready." "No baby. Hurry up and come get me. Its a man in my house that's forcing me to have sex with him. Baby I'm scared. Hurry up and get here please." "Ok baby I'll be there." As I hung up, the man busted into my room. "Bitch u thought u could just his in this small ass room? Now you made me mad. And you're gonna pay the fucking price." I tried yo slip pass him but he threw me back onto the bed. "Stop please!" I cried out, but he didn't stop. I looked in his eyes and it had nothing but lust in them. I kept yelling and screaming hoping some will buy as minutes went by I felt useless. He put his hands down my shorts and licked my neck. Ew, his breath. Suddenly, Richard busted in and pulled the man off me. I heard the bones crack as Richard's fist connected to the man's face. Then Richard uppercut the man and knocked him unconscious. I sat there and cried while I watch Richard drag the man out of my room. "Babe you ok?" Richard asked. "Yes, thank you." "Don't thank me, its my job to protect you. Now go pack your things. I'll get Alicia's stuff." I packed all my things up and looked around the room before I exited to Alicia's room. "Everything's packed up?" "Yes, wait I need my make up bag. I need to cover this bruise." "Ok, I'll be outside in the car." I went downstairs into the closet to see if my mother had put my make up bag in there and there it was on the top shelf. Since I'm short, I had climbed up the shelf to get my bag then someone pulled my leg down once I got it. I hit the swollen side of my face on the ironing board. I screamed out in pain as someone dragged me out the closet. "Bitch u thought your little boyfriend could knock me out for long? Your gonna pay." Then he punched me constantly. He dragged me by my hair out of the closet into the kitchen. There sat my mother. "Mom please help." I cried out. "You're going to learn. When a man says please him, you please him right then and there. You dirty little hoe. You ain't shit. Now give him what he wants." Just then he pulled his pants down, then roughly ripping my shorts off. "RICHARD!! RICHARD HELP! HELP ME PKEASE SOMEONE!" "Shut up bitch." My mom said before covering my mouth up. I am not about to get raped. No do something Erykah. THINK! I bit my mother's hand and kicked the man in his balls and started running outside. I ran into the car with Richard and he drove off. 15 minutes later we arrived at his house. We got Alicia's and I things out of his car. As we walked in the house he called for his mom but she didn't answer. He checked in the garage and seen her car wasn't there. So we went to his room. "You and Alicia can stay here for a while if u want to." "Yeah I'll love that." "Well you both can stay in here. I can buy Alicia a crib. Iono if a new born wants to sleep in the bed with us. Especially me because I'm a wild sleeper." Both of us laughed. "No don't spend your money on me and Alicia. She can sleep on the side with me." "Okay fine with me. Are you sure? I mean there's always time to get one." "Yeah I am." "Ok well let's go get some ice to put on ur face." "Okaay." I said as I walked behind him. After we got the ice he told me to explain to him what happened in the house when he was in the car. So I told him what happened, but he had got very angry. I ended up calming him down and I fell asleep on his chest and he fell asleep right afterwards.
