Flashback( a year ago)

I woke up to gunshots and my mom and dad screaming at each other. Like always. I walked into the bathroom and saw that my eyes were puffy. Why?? Because I was crying.. About? My boyfriend...well ex-boyfriend now. He cheated on me with one of my old friends. I sat and stared at myself in the mirror for a long time until I heard a knock on the door. I opened it to see my brother, Myles.

Myles: Nique, are you okay? 

Dominique: yea thanks. 

Myles: you know I gotta check on my little sis. 

Dominique: just remember little sis by an hour.

Yes we're twins. Myles was born 1 hour before me. People say we have the same eyes but I say we have our daddy's eyes. But anyways back to the story.

Myles: well come on. We don't wanna be late for school.  

Dominique: umm Myles? 

Myles: yea? 

Dominique: it's Saturday. 

Myles: sh*t!! 

Dominique: *laughs* if you would bring yo ass to school like you should, you would know what day it is. 

Myles: aye man shut up for they here you 

Dominique: *looking around* who?! Casper the friendly ghost?  

Mom: kids come downstairs we need to have a talk. 

Myles: *gasps* I can't believe you!! 

Dominique: *brushing my teeth* what?! 

Myles: you told didn't you? 

Dominique: no I didn't tell anyone... But daddy knows 

Myles: *gasps* you little-(GCO) 

Dominique: what?! Rat? Snitch? What's your secret word for today?! Tell me. 

Myles: ma Nique Nique's bothering me! 

Dad: iight iight look.. Could y'all shut up for 2 damn seconds please.? 

Both: okay 

Dad: now go downstairs and Myles we will talk later.! 

Myles: you little b*tch 

Dominique: shut up punk! 

Dad: hey that's enough.. both of y'all need to get downstairs for I get my belt on y'all asses.  

Dominique: *sucks her teeth*  

Dad: do it again. 

Dominique: *staring at him and walking past him*  

Dad: *bucks at me* 

Dominique: *start running down the stairs*  

Myles: that's right dad you tell her.  

Dad: Myles I'm not playing. 

Myles: sorry dad.

We finally reached the kitchen and we sat at the counter.

Myles: so what did you want to talk to us about? 

Mom: first here is some pancakes.  

Dominique: chocolate chip is my favorite!

We watched daddy walk down the stairs with his bags packed.

Dominique: daddy?! Where are you going?
