Hey Homegirl
Lashell Rivers
.....
My sister stopped picking me up because she was always getting into school fights and was just tired of me. She was hanging with her friends and living the teenage life, with other girls being jealous. I mean, she was gorgeous, and they were ugly.
But I did feel some love from her here and there. A bigger girl had pushed me while playing, and my sister was told. Livia came out and pushed that girl down in front of everyone. “Don’t you touch my little sister.” The girl ran off crying to her family, and I herd of them came out of the building, fussing at my sister for being older than her and pushing her. “She’s too big to be touching my sister!” yelled my then fifteen-year-old blood, as one of the members held her arm and had the big girl push my sister back. It was more hurtful mentally as I saw it, for the girl didn’t hit her or hurt her physically. The point was that she was defending me, and they didn’t see that. Their point was to come tell them and not put hands on each other, which was the adult way. The hood doesn’t always teach that. She went to our building and cried on the steps after that. I sat next to her with my arm around her and her head on my shoulder. I saw a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to show love.
