《Brightside》Tell me your story

"I been waiting months to get to them, my plan is complete and fool proof. Time to start."

"Boss are you sure?" A worker questioned.

I took my gun out and shot him between his eyes.

"Anybody else have something to say?" I asked.

"No boss." I heard.

"Good now let's begin." I laughed.

'I'm coming for what's mine.'

After Christmas and my pregnancy announcement the house has been so lively. We still do our normal routines like eating together, going to work etc, but the atmosphere is more happier which is ironic because it was already happy.

I got permission to graduate early but I don't want to go through with the ceremony, I just want to get my certificate and be done with it. I expressed that and even though Arlo really wanted me to have a ceremony she respected my decision and stood behind me with it.

I'm going to get it sometime this week but I just been busy with shit. I also have my first doctor's appointment this week and I'm excited. It's just crazy that i'm actually pregnant and I got a human growing inside of me.

Anyways right now I'm in my work office tryna finish up some paper work. It's about 1 in the afternoon and I'm ready to go the fuck home bro. I became frustrated cause I been signing papers for hours.

I threw down the pen and pushed the papers further up and laid my head on the desk. I heard a knock on the door and I let out a frustrated sigh.

"What?" I asked.

I didn't hear a response but I heard the door opening. I looked up and saw that it was Rowan and Levi. I rolled my eyes and put my head back on the desk.

"Shit don't look so excited to see us." Levi said, I could picture her rolling her eyes.

I took my head off of the desk and pouted.

"I'm frustrated."

"Well, we got you food baby momma." Rowan said.

"Ro, I'm not your baby momma." I said taking the bags of food from them.

"Yes you is now eat, Arlo's orders."

"Did she really send you here to bring me food?" I asked opening the bags and taking out the food.

"Yes yes now eat."

"Don't got to tell me twice." I laughed.

They got me my favorites from this little diner that we found. A bitch be getting spoiled and shit I ain't complaining. I finished eating my food and Levi and Rowan looked at me weird.

"I got something on my face?" I asked.

"No but you literally just ate 2 bags of food." Rowan said.

"Practically one bag was for me and the other bag was for my munchkin so did I really eat 2 bags of food?"

"Don't argue with a pregnant woman you'll lose." Levi chipped in.

"Listen to your girlfriend."

Rowan let out a little laugh and then put her hands up in a surrender motion.

"Are y'all staying with me?"

"No we was just dropping in."

"So y'all really gon leave me alone?" I asked tearing up.

They looked at me trying to decipher if I was joking. When they saw I was serious their faces morphed into shock.

"No baby girl, we was just playing." Rowan said trying to cover it up.

"Of course we are staying and helping with whatever you need." Levi added.

"Good." I clapped happily.

They helped me around the office when it came down to orders and inventory shit. After we were done I didn't want to stay until the store closed so I told two of my employees to lock up for me. I should really promote somebody to manager so they can do all that shit.

After we left we went to Arlo's club. We only went because I wanted cuddles and I didn't want to wait until she was home. I steeped in the building and right now everybody knows who I am and what to do when they see me.

I left Levi and Rowan and went straight to the elevator. I hit the top floor button and waited patiently. The doors opened and I went to Arlo's door which was closed as always. Before I could open it I heard people talking.

I had three options I could knock and wait for the door to open, two I could just open the door and go in or three wait for them to finish. I couldn't just interrupt a meeting cause it could be important so I can't barge in, so option 2 is out.

I can't wait out here cause they could take forever and my patience is very thin, so option three is out. That leaves me with option one. I would of texted her but I left my phone in the car so more work for me.

I knocked on the door and waited. I heard heels clicking on the floor and then it opened. It was the assistant that Arlo told me she hired. I know because she showed me a picture. I gave her a friendly smile and the bitch had the heart to look me up and down like she judging me. Strike one bitch.

"Miss Carson is in a meeting, please come back later." She said.

"Ma'am I'm going to need you to step aside please and thank you."

"Miss Carson is in a meeting, please come back later." She repeated.

"You sound like a broken radio that's one and two get out of my way bro."

"Do I have to call security?"

"I would love to see you try." I said standing tall, cause baby I ain't the one getting dragged out of here.

"What's going on there?" I heard Arlo ask.

"There's a lady out here that refuses to leave." The assistant said.

"Move aside and let me see." Arlo requested.

When the assistant moved and she saw it was me she gestured for me to come in. There was two people sitting in front of her, one male and one female. They looked middle aged maybe in their early 30's.

I walked over to Arlo and because I got manners I said,

"Good afternoon, sorry to interrupt."

"It's no problem." The male said.

"You know you can never interrupt me." Arlo said pulling me on her lap.

"You can lock the door." She said directly to the assistant.

She did what she was told and then she went back to sit at the far end of the room.

"Now where were we?" Arlo asked.

"We we're talking about rates to rent the club." The female said.

"Right see when you rent my club it's a package. We listen to your wants and then we get everything for you plus you have to take into consideration the notoriety of the club and the amount of hours you need it for." She explained.

I laid my head on her chest and zoned out. I only picked up bits and pieces of their conversation.

"The all inclusive would be $15,000." Arlo said.

"Done." The male said.

"What's the occasion again?"

"Our anniversary party." The female said.

"Okay, so I need you to email me your preferences as it relates to food, music, cakes etc."

"My assistant will give that to you by tomorrow." The male said.

"I look forward to doing business with you." Arlo said.

They said their goodbyes and then left.

"Aye Sabrina stay back for a minute." Arlo called out.

I guess she stayed back and they started talking.

"I know you're new so I'm going to let this slide. When you see her no matter what i'm doing you let her in. Okay?"

"Yes miss Carson." She smiled.

I'm telling y'all this now. This girl is going to be trouble, but that could also be me being paranoid.

"You can leave now."

"Have a good evening." She said then leaving.

"I don't like her." I pouted.

"Baby you don't like anybody." she laughed.

"That's not true." I rolled my eyes.

"Don't catch a attitude with me baby girl." She said aggressive.

"Shi I like it when you're aggressive."

"I know you do my love, but anyway how are you and my baby?"

"We're good, I still can't believe that we're going to be parents."

"I know, I feel the same but I'm glad that it's with you." She kissed my cheek.

"Don't think i'm going to be a stay at home mom." I pointed out.

"I know you won't be." She laughed.

"Good now can we go home?" I asked.

"Not yet baby, but soon." She gave me a kiss and then moved me over to the couch.

I was feeling sleepy so I decided to take a nap to pass the time.

30 minutes later

I don't know how long I was out for but I felt in somebody's arms. I peaked through one of my eyes and I saw that it was Arlo. I gave her a little smile and went back to sleep.

I woke up again but this time I was pressed against somebody and I immediately knew it was Arlo. I opened my eyes and I was right.

"Look who's up." She said.

"This is not a bad way to wake up." I laughed.

"I bet, you get to see all this sexiness."

"Mhm all mine." I said licking my lips.

"All yours mamas."

"Tell me your story." I said randomly.

"My story?" She asked confused.

"You know mine, so I want to know yours."

"I grew up with both my parents, they were best friends with Rowan's parents and we practically lived beside each other."

"Me and my parents didn't always get a long with each other, I was more close with my mother than my father. My father was just crazy as hell, he lived a dangerous life and because of him I had to step into that life." I said recounting all the memories.

"Rowan and I we're subjected to torture practically, always had to train in fighting, guns etc. They made us do that since I could remember, they would push us so hard that we had to get medical help but we couldn't go to hospitals." I shuddered.

"I think I was 10 maybe when they wanted Levi to join us but she was only 8, I didn't want to subject her to that pain and neither did Rowan so we took a stance and she didn't have to go through what we did, but it just made it worse for us."

"When I hit 15 or maybe 14, Rowan and I started to rebel. We snuck out of the house, did drugs, we were just reckless. They didn't seem to care unless it got in the way of their business. Rowan's parents were worse than mine cause they were top in the gang shit but mine were just apart of it but we were at the top too."

"The one day it all stopped. We didn't have no training anymore or anymore torture. It was like a breath of fresh air. We finally could be normal even though it never happened. The scars were just too deep to heal. But I wanted Levi to live normally so Rowan and I did our best to give that to her." I took a deep breath.

"I resented my parents for taking away my childhood, yes it made me strong but it took something and left a void in my life but I saw why they did it. Rowan also resented her parents because of them she got fucked up in her head and she goes crazy and trigger happy"

"One day Rowan and I went to the store leaving Levi home alone. We we're on our way back when Lev called and she was frantic, she told us that people were in the house and I could hear how scared she was. Levi might be strong but she wasn't made for this life and I never wanted her exposed to it." I started.

"I told her to go in the panic room in her room, she did it as fast as she could and we sped as fast as we could back home. The only thing running through my mind was me killing them, I could say the same thing about Levi she thought I didn't know about her and my sister at that time but I knew and I was happy for them."

"When we got there we busted through the doors and started letting out gunshots. I felt like I had tunnel vision, I was only focused on keeping my sister safe and If I died in the process I didn't care. We got all the men and I ran to Levi's room and into the safe room, she was hugging her knees drifting back and forth, she looked up and saw it was me and ran into my arms."

"I never wanted to see her this scared again and I vowed to myself to never put her or anybody I loved in this position again. Rowan came in the room and Lev ran to her arms. I felt the adrenaline start to wear off and my body screamed in pain. I tried to steady myself using the wall but it was no use I went down and I started to feel like I was going to pass out."

"They both ran over to be and looked to see where the injury was. I got shot in my belly and my thigh but they missed any major organs and arteries. Levi was pleading with me to stay awake but I couldn't I just smiled and said see you later before everything went black."

"They told me I was in a coma for a month and a half. My parents moved us to a island while they tried to work out who did this. When they found out Rowan and I went on a vengeance killing spree which I'm not going to lie I enjoyed it."

"When we finished we went back to the island and spent some time there before coming back home. My parents were supposed to on the flight with us but they opted to stay longer I tried to talk them out of it but no they just had to be hardheaded. A week later we got news that they died in a plane crash, which I never believed."

"Rowan and I did a little digging but we never found out who did it but that don't mean I ever stop and I won't until their blood is on m y hands. But after they died I had to be the leader of the house I guess. I took over their business and their finances and here I ma now." I finished laughing.

"I'm sorry." Storm said wiping away tears I didn't even know had fallen.

"You don't have to be love, I have my own little family now and I'm happy." I said kissing her.

To change the mood back to happiness and cheeriness I decided to have a movie night. I cooked all of us some food and we watched movies for the rest of the night.
