chapter four

A Chapter by Selena

Getting over Benny is the hardest thing in my life right about now. He is constantly harassing me and being annoying. Every party I go to. Every time I go to the mall. Even sometimes when I’m just sitting in my yard he’ll walk by because he knows it frustrates me.

My brother Tevin is my go to guy. I tell him everything, so when him and Benny became best friends I was beyond pissed, but I didn’t say anything I tried to just let it go.

Benny is over again today and it’s driving me insane. How could my brother know what he did to me, well I didn’t tell him everything but he knows enough, yet still be his friend, his best friend. I need to vent… my bathroom is the only peaceful alone place. In my bathroom I scream and punch the wall. Guess who comes to see what is wrong… no one other than Benny.

“Why the hell won’t you go away? You think talking to my brother was gonna get you back on good terms? Well you are wrong! I still hate you. You know if I told Tevin what you said about him, he’d kick your scary a*s. You need a life and to leave mine the hell alone. Ok!” I screamed at him. He didn’t reply he just walked away.

After spending a few more minutes in the bathroom, I walk out to the living room. There sat Michael, one of Tevin’s close friends. Michael liked me and he was kinda cute. There also was Benny, Tevin, Ra’Shard, and Michael.

I don’t know why I did what I did next but it was sort of worth it. I walk over to Michael, sit in his lap, and make-out with him. Benny went storming out of our house. I had the biggest smile on my face.

“Justice, what the hell? Why would you do that knowing that it would piss him off?” asked Tevin

That really frustrates me. “Tevin you are one hell of a brother! After I told you what he did you still became his best friend. I’d never in a million years do something like that to you, but you don’t care what I feel. You don’t care that it hurts me to see you be all buddy buddy with someone that hurt me so bad! Do you even know what he said that he would do to you and what he said about you? You don’t do you! He said that putting a bullet through you head ain’t s**t and that you are a punk a*s weak a*s excuse for a man. He said you are a p***y a*s n***a. You didn’t know that huh. Yet the fact that he even hurt me should be enough for you to do something. Whatever! I’m done.” I cried. I went outside to confront Benny.

“What you aren’t man enough to handle that? I thought you were done with me? So why does it matter that I kissed him? Silence is key now huh? You are a sad excuse for a man, I don’t know why I ever even loved you and you are lucky that my brothers aren’t out here kicking your a*s right now because the stunt you pulled…” I screamed.

“Shut the hell up! You are stupid for doing some bullshit like that in front of me. Do you know what I could do to you right now? You act like what I said about your brothers ain’t true. Tevin and Ra’Shard are both some p***y a*s n****s. They weak. I could beat both they asses in a matter of seconds. I ain’t scared of them just because they got a rep. You looked stupid thinking Tevin was going to stick up for you, he dogged your a*s, even as his sister he still treats you like the hoe you are.” He yelled cutting me off.

I was pissed and hurt at the same time and didn’t realize that Ra’Shard and Tevin were both standing behind me and heard everything he said. I knew what was about to happen and didn’t want to stay to see it, so I walked into the house and texted Dani to tell her what was going on.

They were outside for a long time. I decided to peek outside; there was a crowd that was growing. I saw my dad pulling up. Did I make a mistake in just leaving? Michael’s phone rings. He talked for fifteen seconds, hung-up, and ran outside. Now I’m panicking.

Not knowing how else to fix this mess I caused, I run outside. Trying to get to the middle of that crowd was the harder than I thought it would be.

There, in the center of the crowd was my brother Tevin fighting Chris, Benny’s brother, with Michael trying to break it up. Ra’Shard fighting Benny with my dad trying to break it up. The only thing I could do was cry.

Grabbing Shard, my dad and I were finally able to pull him completely off of Benny. Benny took off running.

Never in my life have I seen a look in my brother’s face like the one I just did, and I don’t ever want to see it again.

Shard pushed through us and ran after Benny. I’ve never as scared as I am now in my entire life.

After ten more minutes of trying to break up Chris and Tevin, I gave up and ran inside to call Lexcell.

As I walked inside the door, I saw the police pulling up, that is one situation I did not want to be involved in. I already had trouble with the law, being that I am on probation I can’t get into any trouble.
