My Life, Continues

JJEM, San Mateo

Previously on “My Life”, after Steven had a seizure, he was unconscious then three minutes later he woke up out of the blue, but he wasn’t himself at all. When I sat him on the bench, he was just mumbling to himself and he was whispering whenever he talked to us. He also started vomiting and Georgie brought water for him because I asked him to so he could drink. Then I asked Georgie to look for the ice cream man so he could buy us something to eat. But when he came back, he said he couldn’t find any ice cream man at all so he decided to go to the store.

 Now that I caught you readers up, now I’ll continue what happens next in the story. I asked Georgie if he could go to the liquor store by my house. He wasn’t sure if he should leave us at first but I convinced him to go. The reason why I got him to go is because first of all, the three of us were all hungry, and second of all, we needed water, and third of all, Georgie was the only one capable of riding his bike. 

So I gave Georgie fifteen dollars to buy us some snacks and some drinks. Georgie was about to leave when he turned back to me and faced me right in the face and straight to my eye which made me hella uncomfortable. He then said to me, “Bro I don’t want to leave you two out here by yourselves.” 

Then I said to him, “Bro just go. We’ll be alright I promise you that. Just hurry when you’re coming back, but take your time as well, alright!?” 

Then he said, “Alright but I’m mostly worried about you man. What if the same shhh happens to you?” 

Then I said, “Like I said, if anything does happen, I already told you what to do man.” 

Then he said,”but…”, but I cut him off before he could even say whatever he was going to say. 

I told him, “But nothing all right. Just go man! I got Steven here to watch over me.” (Huh Steven) 

Steven said, “ yeah got ya,” in a whisper. 

I doubted that he was going to do anything, not going to lie, at the current condition he was in. If something did happen while Georgie was gone, then it would be game over. 

Then Georgie looked at me and said, “Alright bro, I’m going. You better be in the same place when I get back.” 

Then I said, “I will, I promise that.” 

Then he said, “Ok,” then left. 

Not going to lie, I wasn’t scared one bit. I just sat there on the bench waiting  and waiting and waiting for the thing that happened to Steven to happen to me also but it never ended up happening so I was there watching over Steven. Also I was still trippin’, man. I don’t mean it in a bad way but in a good way. Not a bad trip, I know how that feels also. That shhh straight up feels like you literally went to hell itself. That’s why drugs are a very dangerous to mess with. The reason why, like I explained last time, that shhh literally messes with you mentally and physically, and I’m not lying. 

Sadly, my friend Steven literally sees shhh now and feels like he’s being followed around. So yeah, Steven has extreme paranoia but not going to lie, after the seizure incident, Steven and I didn’t learn our lessons because we still continued to party. He used it like five times, three times with me and two times with one of my old friends, Carv.

These are my levels of the word friendship: there’s “companion”, then there’s “buddy”, then there’s “friend”, then there’s “homie”, and then finally, people who reach this level are considered “family”. And for family I use the word “brother/sister”. Carv was still at level one which is a companion. The reason why is because he was a liar. 

He is so damn fake that it got me so damn mad. He literally stole from his friends, including me. When he stole shhh from me, I didn’t care but whenever he tried to act “tough”, I would get hella mad. And also he made up stories to make himself sound tough. 

I knew every time I hung out with him, if some BS happened but didn’t go as he expected, he would make up some story that would piss me off to the core. And he would bring me into the story saying we did some shhh to make us sound tough and that also angered me. 

Later, I just told the truth about what really happened because I’m an honest-honest person. I don’t like being fake to people because that ain’t me. There was this time he got me so mad because he was dating this girl and was using her just so he cant get his way but I told her what was happening and then she broke up with him which me made me feel good because I hate when guys try to get their way with girls. Then he and I had an argument and then he punched me in my damn face. I was surprised at first but at the same time, not really. But I just went at him and we fought and I got him to the ground. At first, I thought I was going to lose because he was way taller than me but somehow I won. I felt bad but at the same time, I felt good. He deserved it. I just left him and then told him to never contact me again and that I don’t want to ever see his damn face again. So yeah, that’s how Carv and I stopped being friends. 

Sorry, I went a little off topic again but I’ll continue the story right now. Yeah, so the last time Steven used was with me. Every time he used, he started acting differently. I don’t mean that the partying was making him different but it was making him act in a horrible way. It made him act so different when he stopped using it. So yeah, like I said, this type of partying messes your body up so bad.

 I know Steven wasn’t meant for this so I’m glad that Steven stopped using. Ok sorry again, I’ll continue the story again. 

So yeah, I was trippin’. Everything was colorful and looked so damn beautiful. The birds were singing and I was able to hear every insect doing their thing. The plants looked alive like if they had minds of their own. Everything looked alive, like the trees, grass, and every plant like the flowers. The gardens looked alive. Every vegetable looked like it also had a mind of its own. The wind felt as if it was whispering to me. I could hear everything around me like if I had super hearing. So yeah, I just waited and waited for Georgie to come and time went slowly. Georgie was coming late so I got worried. To be continued.
