Jayln is a young adolescent who has both a gift and curse. She is able to see events that have taken place in the past as well as the future through mirrors, when her parents decide to move out of state to start a new life she meets a boy named Terr...
"Why didn't Mariah come?" I ask Terrance as he helps me lay the blanket out along the sand, this past month has actually been what I call normal. Ed and Lorraine decided to exercise both our houses and since then everything has gone back to normal which makes me believe that the house itself was just haunted. I have tried explaining everything to my parents countless times but they always come up with some excuse, I even showed my mother the clippings and she came up with something about people having doppelgangers so I left it alone.
I watch as Terrance removes his shoes then sits down on the blanket crossing his legs he looks out at the calm waters. I place my towel down and decided to join him. The both of us sit in silence as we take in the scenery as well as the cooling ocean breeze.
"Because she's pregnant" Terrance mumbles, I turn and look at him. "Who's pregnant?"
"Mariah, that nigga Quincy got her pregnant" he says as if he was mad about it. I bury my feet into the warm sand and stay mute, I wanted to give my opinion but at the same time I didn't.
"I told her last year to cut his trifling ass off but she's so wrapped up in him that she doesn't see that he's no good, he has a fucked up mentality and eventually so will she" he vents to me.
"Try talking to her about it" I suggest, he shakes his head no and stands to his feet, walking over to the shoreline I watch him sit down. Grabbing my towl, I stand up and walk over to him, sitting down I place my head on his shoulder and look at the small waves crash in front of us.
"Its crazy how you can love someone so much that you can't see that they're toxic for you, they change you into someone you're not and make you do things you wouldn't normally do, that's all I see Quincy as, he's a senior as well as a fuckboy. I don't even see the hype about him and that damn unibrow of his" he mumbles, I cover my mouth and try to hold in a laugh from his last comment.
"He doesn't really have a unibrow" I say defending him for some reason, "But he does seem no good for her, the sad thing is you have to let her see it for herself, sometimes it takes long for someone to realize that the person they love the most is actually the person that'll hurt them the most but in a way I think its for the better"
"Yeah I guess so" he mumbles, I remove my towel and stand up. Grabbing his hand, I pull him over to the water. "We came here to have fun now come on" the both of us run into the ice cold water, I yell at the coldness and run back over to the shore while Terrance stands in the knee high water looking out at the ocean, a few minutes later he gets out and begins playing in the sand.
I watch him pick up a ball of sand and approach me, quickly standing to my feet I run. "You better not throw that Terrance" I warn
"What?, I just want to show you my friend, his name is Pablo" he says walking closer to me.
