Blood Bound

Chapter 11

Luna...

We was at Ihop, and The table was filled with silence as we ate our food. I stopped eating once I noticed that Cj wasn't. He just looked down at his plate ,not saying nothing.

"not gonna eat?" I asked him ,wiping my mouth with a napkin.

He shrugged, "not hungry."

I sighed ,this kid really had a bad ass attitude problem.

"Eat ,its gon' make you feel better, you're not yourself when youre hungry."Meecho chuckled , clearing his throat once he noticed Cj wasn't laughing.

"I'm good." He sighed,still not making no eye contact with us.

I took a deep breath,stopping myself from hopping across this table and slapping the shit out of him,I didn't take my pills this morning so if I was to get upset right now ,it wouldn't be pretty.

"I know you're upset , but at least be grateful Meech was nice enough to bring us here , and to see your fuckin' mom."

Cj sucked his teeth before getting up and walking out.

I scoffed , "you're not deadass right now Cj." I said myself before getting up,but Meecho stopped me.

"I got him." He said ,standing up and handing me his credit card for the waiter,then walking out.

                                       ***

Meecho....

I know how Luna's temper is , and by the way this day is going ,I know the way she react to things wouldn't be nice. With this whole Tina and her son situation,it had her mind in different places,and The way Cj was acting she would fuck him up in public without caring.

"Yo" I called after him,he just continued to walk the car.

Nigga was acting like a real bitch right now ,I'm not even gon' lie.

Once we got to the car he sighed before leaning back on it , I did the same.

"What's on your mind bro'?"

He scoffed, "Stop sitting here acting like you give a fuck about my thoughts my nigga..I know you could  give two fucks."

I chuckled , "oh yea?and what the fuck makes you think that?"

"You don't know me."

I nodded, "you right—I don't" I paused, "but from the looks of it ,We gon' be around each other for a long ass time so I might as well get to know you."

"Nah" he shook his head, looking away to all the people and cars going by. "I'm good on opening up to people I don't know."

I shook my head , this is one stubborn ass kid.

"This about that whole situation with ya' moms?"

He sighed before runnin' his hands down his face... he hesitated to talk before he started speaking, "you could say that."

"So what's on ya mind bro?"

"A lot of shit— life." He spoke , "shit is always on my mind ,bunch of fuckin' questions goin' through my head ,trynna figure out why the fuck was this the life I chose? And why the fuck did all this shit have to happen to me ?" He Licked his lips before chucklin' not in a funny way,but in a way that you could tell ,he was emotional.

"No need to question anything that's goin' on, shit happens for the best of us— only the strong survive and look at you...you still here."

"Nah , this ain't fair...I'm seventeen,my life should've been way better than this." He stopped , "I ain't trynna be on no soft shit,you probably don't wanna hear this sentimental shit anyway."
