Numb : August Alsina Story

| 1 |

It all started in 5th grade August and I were bestfriends.

- FLASHBACK -

" Alright kids we have a new student that will be joining our class , August Introduce yourself"

" Yeah I'm August and that's all "

" You can sit next to Ariana , Raise your hand Ms.Lopez "

- FLASHBACK OVER -

Yup this is where it all started my name is Aria Davis and August and I use to be close but it all changed after we graduated middle school. He slowly but surely parted away from me and towards the 'popular' Kids . He joined the football team all of the wins were celebrated without me . I wonder if even still thinks about me , I never thought this day would come ... but it did

' Aria are you still on the whole August situation ? '

' Yes, he was my best friend for 8 years how could I ? '

' Listen Aria , its gonna be okay do you want me to beat him up for you ? '

' No , Brandon '

Brandon is my older brother he's been the one caring for me since the whole M.I.A August thingy , my mom left my brother and I when he was 9 and i was 7 . Our dad works majority of the time , we barley get to see him.

" B do you ever think about mom ?"

" Everyday "

" How could she leave us ? "

" I don't know but get ready for school I'm going to make us french toast "

I got up did the daily hygiene , and put on my Adidas jumpsuit with a plain white shirt with my black uggs

" Where da food at nigga ? "

" On the damn table lil girl "

" Don't get smart B "

" Let's go , get in the car "

- In the car -

" Soo August doesn't talk about me at practice "

" Here we go again , no he doesn't all he talks about is girls he fucks"

Damn Brandon

When we got to school I went straight to my locker cause niggas these days be rushing to class but don't do any work 😐 tf .

As soon as i got there i wanted to go back to sleep when i saw him.

" What do you want Shad "

Shad is that creep boy that is ALWAYS bothering me

" You "

" Get the fuck away from me how many times do I have to tell you to leave me alone I don't like nor will I ever so bye "

" Come on baby don't be like that" he says while grabbing my arm

" Ayee my nigga get off shawty "

Wait hol'up rewind is that august ?....... Yup its him

" Why should I ? "

" Because that's no way to treat a girl "

Your one to talk august

" Whatever , see you later love" Shad says while looking me up and down and walking away

" Thank you " I say while attempting to walk away

' Wait , Aria Davis ? '

He even forgot my name 😫😂

" Yeah " adding my awkward laugh

" I thought you moved "

Wtf ?

" Well I didn't so bye "

" Wait , I cant believe this Marilyn told me you moved "

" Even if she did you didn't try to contact me or even look for me you were too busy playing football and hanging out with the school sluts , Don't give me that bullshit ! " By this time the halls were crowding around us .

" I've been your so called best friend for 8 years ! Did you even care about me or was it all just a joke to you? I was there for you when you had your rough times . No one else not Drew not Deandre and Especially Not Marilyn unlike them I actually cared about you . "

" Cared ? "

" Yeah as in Past tense goodbye August "

It felt good to get that off my chest , I cant believe he didn't even remember my name

- After School , In the car -

" I herd about what happened "

" That's nice , Can we stop at Starbucks ? "

" Yeah , but listen I don't want the argument to stick to you. Forget about him . "

" I'll try "

" Drive-Thru or what ? "

" I'm going in , want anything ? "

" Nope "

" Fine with me "

When I walked in I saw that Brianna was working today. Shes really my only friend I met her here at Starbucks since then we've been cool I come here every week .

" I was starting to think you weren't gonna come "

" I have a lot going on "

" I hope it all gets settled out. The usual ? "

" No , Surprise me "

" So when you gonna hook me up with your brother . "

I Don't know why girls find him attractive his ugly ,

" I'll try "

While walking out , guess who was coming in ? August , why cant I ever escape him ?

" Can we talk ? " he asked

" So now you wanna talk "

" Aria I know your mad at me but listen I'm sorry for not trying to contact you , trust me you have been on my mind . I could never forget you You are my best friend , your weird ways are hard to forget "

" Don't make me Laugh , August you have to think about how I feel . I feel like the other half of me is gone . Do you know how many times I looked at the pictures from when we were in 5th grade . " I began to cry

" Aria . Don't cry " He said while pulling me into a hug while rubbing my back

" I'll see you later , B is waiting for me "

" Okay , I'll see you tomorrow . I'm sorry again "

" What took you so long ?" Brandon asked as I got in the car

" I talked to August "

" What happened? " he questioned

" He apologized "

" Did you accept it ? "

" Not really "

" Dont accept it until your ready Ari "

" I know B "
