"Stop making it about that Omar!"
"I'm not making it about that! That's what it is! That's what it's always been!"
"That's a lie!"
"Facts it's not !"
"Omar"
"How many times you missed one of Sharife's games"
...
"Mhm" I said, walking into the kitchen.
"Look-"
"Ain nun to look at. I get it. I understand it." I said, chuckling as I opened a gatorade.
My mouth getting dry from repeating the same things.
"Look okay we may have missed a few of your games but we've missed some of Sharife's too-"
"When?"
"Huh-"
"When" I asked again, resting my elbows on the island.
"You don't remember that one time?"
"Nope."
"Omar."
"Mom."
"Stop"
"I can't."
She sighed and my dad grabbed my shoulder.
"Look O. We love both of you equally."
"Oh fr?" I asked, taking a sip of my gatorade.
Bout to end this mans whole career.
"Y'all remember that time when I got injured in the middle of the season last year?"
They nodded slowly.
"And how long were y'all at the hospital?"
My dad sighed and my mom out her hands on her face.
"Oh aight . Cause if I remember correctly, y'all left like 30 minutes later to get ready for Sharife's game and it was just me and Mia there for the rest of the night PLUS the whole next day. And let's not talk about how I had to BEG y'all to come to my game. Remember that?"
Has to pull a "this you?" real quick.
"Look that was one time"
"Oh I'm not done. Remember that time when I went through HEAVY depression? Like last September? Mhm yeah, um where were y'all?"
My mom furrowed her eyebrows and my dad looked up like he was tryna think.
"New York."
My dad looked down, realizing.
"Yep." I said.
"O listen, I promise we don't try to it just-"
"What? You been doing it so long it's a habit now?" I said, loudly.
Yeah I'm pissed off.
I sighed before speaking again.
"Sorry for raising my voice ma"
She pulled me to her and cradled me in her arms.
"I'm sorry baby. I'm sorry we showed Sharife more love than you" She said and I could hear her start to tear up.
I know my mom wants the best for this family but still...
I hugged her back, rubbing her back.
My dad was still quiet.
