Jalasia POV
"Are you okay?!" Mom asks in sudden panic and I quickly sip my water letting the cool liquid flow down my throat
"Yes I'm fine mom calm down." I said swatting the air letting her know I'm good
"I just wanna make sure you Asia I care about you." Mom says and I already know where this conversation is about to lead to
"Mom..." I said warningly letting her know I don't want to hear anything about my father while I'm out
"Asia this has got to stop ever since you gotten older its like you just hate him seriously what is going on with between you two?" Mom asks frustration written in her graceful chocolate features
"Your husband is a racist homophobic bigot who also is a misogynistic as-" I look at my mama who was looking at me with her eyebrow raise
"Misogynistic jerk." I said and mama sighs
"Sweetie look your father is a preacher his job as a man of God is to preach the word of our Lord and Savior." Mom says and I scoff
"Mom, he makes it seem like l***q people are disgusting creatures if I read the bible correctly it says let thee who has never sin cast the first stone am I right?" I ask her and she looks at me shock
"Y-Yes why you ask that?" Mom asks and I look at her and she knows what I'm about to say
"How can he acts so holy when he cheated on his wife with someone three times younger then him?!" I ask and she looks at me applaud
"Jalasia that is not your place!!" Mom yells and I look at her feeling myself getting angry
"How is not my place when he cost me my only friend?!" I yell back feeling people eyes on us
"Jalasia." Mom says sadly and I begin to feel my heart harden even more
"I refuse to let a man control like you let dad control you." I said looking her dead in the eye
"Jalasia I am still your mother!" Mom says back anger laced in her tone
"Mom please you never stick up for me and plus it seems you and him favor my big siblings, but little do you guys know." I say with a bitter chuckle
"What thats suppose to mean?!" Mom asks and I shrug deciding she'll find out on her own
"Nothing I'm ready to go." I said already pissed off beyond my limit
"Jalasia we are not done I am the adult you are still a child regardless of what you think or what you feel you will not talk to me or your father any kind of way." Mom said her voice booms anger radiating from her
Which doesn't scare me not even in the slightest
"Okay." I said in a bored tone and it angers her even more
"If you think you so grown Jalasia then move out because I try to be there for you, but you won't allow no one to get close to you at all being all bitter." Mom sasses and I laugh looking at her
"I wonder who I get it from." I said looking directly at her
Then I hear feet steps approaching and I look and see its the boy from earlier
