Wednesday
Omniscient
The drive on the way to Oakwood was exciting, Joyce and Kyla had multiple conversations about multiple things.
"We're here to see Mekai Andrews" Joyce said to the receptionist at the front desk
"You can't" the receptionist said rudely
"And why not?" Kyla asked, not liking her attitude
"He doesn't want to see you all today. It was his request" she said
"What?" Kyla and Joyce rhetorically asked in unison
In Mekai's room, he was staring at the wall and trying to relax himself. Thinking about being in this place kept him irritated 24/7. At least he was around his dad though, which was somewhat a blessing and a curse.
"Why you not talking to them man?" Clinton, Mekai's dad, walked in the room
"Who?" Mekai pretended he didn't know
"Your mama and your girlfriend dummy" he plucked his head "Sit up"
He sat up and sighed "I don't wanna talk to them while I'm in here, not like this"
"And why not? Clearly they wanna see you, they drove 2 hours to see your black ass" he sat in the chair "And word even got around that your girlfriend almost beat the receptionist's ass" he chuckled
"That's my baby" Mekai smiled, thinking about Kyla's beautiful face
"If that's your baby then why you don't wanna see her?" He crossed his legs in the manly way
"I don't want nobody's pitty, I need to get through this shit on my own. Seeing her right now will only make me miss her even more" he explained
"Kai, I'm gonna spend the rest of my life in this shit hole...the rest of my life, until I die, when the close the lid on my cof-"
"I get it Pop" He interjected
"Like I was saying, I don't have visitation rights anymore, I fucked that up. I don't even get to make a phone call to my family anymore" he explained "The only reason I'm seeing you is because your crazy ass is in here with me"
"Pop I ain't-"
Clinton knew he was about to protest "Nigga you crazy, accept it. Point I'm trying to make is, don't push away the people that love you because you wanna act like some fucking tough guy. Hear me?"
"...I hear you and I appreciate all that" Mekai nodded "But I still don't want no contact with them while I'm here"
Clinton smacked his teeth "And why the hell not?"
"It's not something I'm cool with." He shrugged "Tough guy act aside, it just ain't me"
"I guess I gotta respect that" His father sighed, placing his hand on his shoulder "Dumbass"
"Andrews, get out of his room. You know it isn't allowed" one of the workers came in
"I love you son" Clinton smiled at Mekai "Y'all can suck my dick, I'm conversating with my son!" he shouted, walking out the room
"Love you too Pop" Mekai sat on the edge of his bed
Kyla
"I can't believe he didn't wanna see us" I sighed as we drove through our city
"It's the same thing his father did before he acted a fool and got his visitation rights taken away forever" Joyce shook her head
