No matter how hard she tried, Shelia couldn’t reach her daughter the way she needed to. It seemed as if Jewels was getting worse. The things she did and said just weren’t right. Shelia could remember one day in particular when Jewels did not come home right after school. By the time Shelia got home, Jewels should have been somewhere around their apartments. As the day went by, there was no sign of Jewels. Shelia called everybody she could think of. Nobody knew where Jewels was and they hadn’t talked to her. Shelia was so worried. It was almost eleven P.M. when Jewels walked into the house. Shelia was livid! Jewels walked in without a care in the world, went straight to her room, and closed the door behind her. Shelia was right on her heels, but the door slammed in her face. After smelling the strong aroma of weed and alcohol, she realized that Jewels was high. Shelia turned the knob and opened the door.
“Where have you been all day, Jewels?”
Jewels wouldn’t even look at her mother. She held her head down while she talked.
“I was at my friend’s house,” Jewels lied.
“What fucking friend? Because I called Rhonda and Mesha, and neither one of them talked to you today.”
“I wasn’t with them. I was with my other friends. You don’t know them,” Jewels said, rolling her eyes and smacking her lips.
Now, Shelia didn’t play that shit. If you wanted to be grown or act like it, then you would be treated like it. Shelia was a short lady; she stood about 5’2”, had dark skin and short hair. She was very beautiful, but she didn’t take any shit from nobody. Before Jewels knew what had happened to her, she was holding the left side of her face where Shelia had slapped her.
“First of all, you are thirteen years old! You will not be coming in and out of my fucking house like you pay bills up in here! I want your ass in here when the street lights come on and no later. Do you hear me?”
“Yeah.”
It was on again. Shelia grabbed her by the collar of her shirt and pulled her off the bed.
