Ocean
~~
Momma made Makai go to school the day after I got home. She told him that he had spent the entire previous day with me, so he needed to be responsible and just go to school. Her exact words had apparently been right along the lines of what my mother had told him before.
"Who else is going to make sure that Ocean has all the information from his classes? If you skip school, then he will fall even more behind. Do you want his grades to suffer?"
Throughout her entire argument with Makai, Momma never once referenced his grades or him falling behind. She was apparently only focused on me and my grades. She didn't want me to suffer because my boyfriend was being 'selfish'. I don't see how him wanting to spend time with me was selfish, but I did understand what she was saying about school. I didn't want to get behind and wind up failing because of this whole incident.
