August,

Bernice is in Congo. She's been there for about three months. "Daddy, I'm hungry." Aaron said. "OK. I'll go get you some food." As I was walking down the stairs the doorbell rang.

It's probably just Violet, Trina, and Jaquan. They are suppose to come over today but not this early. We've been working on a plan but the plan isn't going well.

I opened the door. "What do you want?" I asked. "Some money." She said. "I just gave you 10,000 dollars last week. What did you use all that money for?" I wondered.

"Lonte stole it." She said. I let her in. "You still messing with him?" I questioned. "I was, but I put that shit to an end." She answered. I don't know why she was with Lonte even though she knows we're enemies.

"Why don't you ask mom to help you?" I inquired. "She doesn't want to. She's still mad at me. Today she kicked me out of the house. She said if I don't get my shit together I ain't welcome back." She mentioned.

She has always been on the move. It's like she's astray. "You need a place to stay don't you?" I asked. She nodded. "You can stay here under two conditions. You need to go to college and get a job." I spoked.

Kaylee is my sister who is 25. She graduated highschool seven years ago. After graduating she's been stealing stuff and disrespecting our mom. Our dad died when she was 3 while I was five.
