I've always loved road trips. Just watching the trees as i past them by and listening to music through my headphones. Most definitely I loved to think especially right now cause I had a lot on my mind.

flashback
                          
" man tia, when you gon' getchu a boyfriend?" My cousin capo questioned me as we sat on the porch of our grandmother's home.
                          
I smacked my lips and rolled my eyes at him. Every time I bring a boy around then he'll end up scaring him. 
                          
" cap, ian bringing nomo niggas around you " I snapped waving him off. 
                          
He laughed as he shook his head. 
                          
" all the niggas you bring around be some lames, on bro" he replied still laughing. 
                          
I laughed feeling salty a bit. 
                          
" my last boyfriend wasnt lame though" I shrugged. 
                          
He clinched his jaw and sighed loudly. It grew silent and the only thing we heard was the cars driving by. 
                          
" tia don't bring dat nigga up" he mumbled looking away from me. 
                          
Devontae was my ex, and he was everything that you could ask for. He treated me like a queen and I could trust him and he said all the perfect things until one day I found out he was cheating and once capo found out then it was all bad. 
                          
Devontae was my forever, first love and etc. I can't lie I still love him and I don't think I'll ever stop loving him..
                          
" next nigga that do you wrong then ima fuck him up even worst. As long as I'm hea then youn gotta worry bout no nigga doin you wrong " he mugged.

The salty tears rolled down my cheek as I leaned my head against the window. I aint even notice I was crying until boomer looked me over in my face. 
                          
He scooted close to me in the backseat and looked at me and his factual expression showed full pity. 
                          
" say tia, what's wrong?" He questioned 
                          
" nun" I sniffled shaking my head. 
                          
He continued to look at me and stare. 
                          
" you can tell me li' baby, ion tell" he explained.
                          
I sniffled crying a bit more, " Im jus tied of goin' through shit. Its like when I'm doin good, then it'll start getting bad fah me"  I explainned softly over to boomer.
                          
" aye look, its some ups and some downs with errthang, but Trouble don't last always, whateva you feelin' now its jus' temporary and a test to make you stronga fah the future." He explained making me stop crying and wipe my tears.
