"You and what your sister is going threw is a lot. But it's time to face them problems. You ain't been home in years." He said

"Yeah, I know I'm about to head out now." She said

"Look I can come if you want me to. I have nothing else going on" he said

"Thought you would never as,k" Meme said getting happy

Meme just wanted some boy by her side while going home and she knew Liam would be by her side threw whatever cause he was the only one who knew her.

"I'll pack a bag and meet me at my house we can take my truck instead of your little car," he said laughing

"Oh joked huh?" She said laughing

Meme grabbed her bag and headed out towards Liam's house which was 30 minutes away from hers. She pulls up getting.out knocking on the door. When he opened it he was already ready to leave.

"Shit let's go I'm ready," he said locking his door

"Damn, what's the rush?" She asked

"Who is in a rush? I told you I would be ready when you got here" he said laughing

"Bet have nobody hiding in the house," she said laughing

"Now you know damn well I don't let no chick come to m I go to them," he said opening the side door for her.

They head out heading towards the highway.

"So how long are we staying?" He asked

"Honestly I don't even know. If things go well I'm saying 3 days. But if not I'm leaving that morning" she said

"I hope shit goes smooth. I think it's needed. And the way you talked to me the other day on the phone sounds like you miss her" He said

"Don't get me wrong I miss my sister she helped me become the woman I am today. But why so much hatred toward me? What did I do?" She asked

"Maybe you ain't do nothing. But to her, you probably hurt her in some type of way. And that's what you need to figure out what's the problem" he said

"I love having you as my friend. " meme said looking at Liam

"I'm gonna always be here for you meme." He said

"Do I act bougie to you? Or do I act like I'm better than everyone? Serious question" she asked

"No, you don't. Yes you look bougie by how you dress and the car you drive but if people knew the real you they'll see a sweet lady who just doing what she needs to do" he said

"Thank you," meme said

Meme and Liam pulled up 4 hours later to her mom's house seeing two cars outside she didn't know if her sister was already in there or not. Meme got out with Liam. Liam grabbed the bags and headed to the front door. Meme opened it seeing her auntie Pam and her mother.

"Auntie sweetpea," Pam said getting up and hugging Meme

"She's probably hungry," Debra said going to the kitchen to grab something

"It's okay Mom I got some chips right here," Meme said grabbing some Cheetos from her purse and handing them to Hailey.
