Part 8: Downhill
After high school, N.M. and I isolated ourselves. He convinced me that there was no point in hanging out/talking to the people I was friends with in school because they were all fake. N.M. even confessed to hating every single person he and I were ever friends with. (Yeah all you guys who thought you were friends with N.M., he talked shit about all of you.) Keeping to myself, I spent majority of my time hanging out with my baby sister. N.M. was never interactive with her, instead he complained about her presence while she was there saying things like “Does she have to be here? I mean, you don’t see me bringing my younger brother,” but he knew that my baby sister comes first before anyone else, and I guess he didn’t like that.
One instance I can still remember to this day was when N.M. and I picked my baby sister up from school. His younger brother was in the car as well, but when I got D.G., she was complaining that she was really hungry because she didn’t like the school lunch so she rarely ate it. Feeling bad, I convinced N.M. to drive to McDonald’s and we got our siblings food. Right when my sister began opening up her Happy Meal, N.M. said “Uh D.G., you can’t eat in here. It’s my brother’s car,” knowing his brother was finishing up his burger right next to my sister!! Annoyed, I yelled out “How dare you tell my sister she can’t eat? She clearly said she was hungry. You know what, just drop us off on the side of the road. This is ridiculous.” He quickly changed his mind right after.
This was just the first of many times that he would purposely exclude my sister out of pre-planned activities. Knowing she liked nature and being outside, if I planned to go to the park, N.M. would invite himself and initiate the chance to drive. Though when he got to my house to pick US up, he would make up some excuse as to why she couldn’t come along (Like bringing a truck that only fits two people even though I already told him D.G. was coming too). He also didn’t have a problem voicing his opinions about my own family. He talked like he and his own were better than mine even though I told him multiple times to stop (though he’ll never admit this). Angry, I began talking about his family as well, but since I love writing, I made the mistake of putting everything I told N.M. on my social networks specifically Twitter and Tumblr.
One day this tactic came back and bit me in the ass. N.M. had recently quit a job he didn’t like because the hours weren’t flexible enough for him. A few days since he quit, his cousin K.Q., who got him the job, made it a big deal and got mad at him for leaving for no reason. Quickly coming to N.M.’s defense, I posted on Twitter with something along the lines of he's grateful for the job, but quitting wasn’t his fault. Shortly after and out of nowhere K.Q. (I told you you’d be in here 😘), came after me saying if I had something to say, then say it to his face. Clearly the damage with N.M. was done, so I said there was no need to make it into a big deal. K.Q. then proceeded to say it wasn’t a big deal and I wasn’t family so it didn’t involve me. Though I didn’t think I needed to be family to come to someone’s defense. And here I thought I was K.Q.'s "cousin in law," right? 🙊
K.Q. continued saying that he’s been snitching on what I’ve posted on Twitter and Tumblr and showed it to N.M.’s mom and his own too. I went on to reply saying that I was appreciative K.Q. finally said what he needed to about me. From the beginning, I knew that he never liked me probably because of the person I was before. All I could think about this guy was “You’re TWENTY years old, and you’re still trying to start drama? How old are you again?” He was too close minded to see that people, including me, can change. K.Q. constantly stuck his nose in N.M. and I’s relationship pretending he was “cool” with me only to talk the most shit behind my back. (A week before this, an old friend, M.B. let her boyfriend talk about me even though I didn’t know him and he didn’t know me. He said something like: She’s ugly and not doing anything with her life). While all this is happening, not once did N.M. come to my defense. I felt betrayed because the reason why I was in this mess was because I stood up for him, but why couldn’t he do the same for me?
Before I blocked them all on Twitter, K.Q., began posting the conversations he had with his “Package Deal.” You guessed it guys, BULLYING!! Immediately knowing I was the talk of this group chat, they began teasing my looks (but have you seen me? jealous much? lol). Soon after, two people who I thought were my friends (T.B. & D.B.), tweeted saying they found “the house.” Assuming it was mine, I texted my best friend K.M., who told me not to do anything because he was going to get them for me.
Realizing my wrongs, I decided to write a long apology letter to K.Q. a few days later. In it, I apologized for the things I said about my ex’s brother, but I also made sure to state that what K.Q. did about snitching wasn’t any better. Whatever happens between N.M. and I was supposed to stay between us, but someone thought he needed to be involved in everything so he decided to stick his nose in my business. I even mentioned that it was completely unnecessary for K.Q. to say that I “deserved it” (it → everything that happened in my life thus far). This too backfired because all I got was a fake ass apology, some clown telling me to check my attitude, and that I was the reason why people come after me. Buddy, are you sure that this was all MY doing? LOL. Annoyed, I responded saying that he was the last person who should lecture me about checking my attitude especially if all he did was judge me from the outside, and I officially dropped the subject.
With the need for attention or because he was too prideful/egotistical, K.Q. posted a couple more things on Twitter STILL talking about me. He even got his aunty to call me a drama queen! Mind you, this woman is almost 50 years old. Really? A FIFTY YEAR OLD WOMAN GOING AFTER AN EIGHTEEN YEAR OLD. So I tweeted one more thing saying K.Q. disgusted me as a person because even after I apologized, home boy still had the balls to talk about me.
It’d also be fun to mention that no matter how many times K.Q. said to “say it to his face,” he never once did the same to me. He just did what he does best, HIDE...behind people, behind a screen. He is an example of someone who’s all talk and no bite. He and his “Package Deal” were people who thought they were holy because they attended church on Sunday’s, but every single day after that, they were sinning like crazy. Miley Cyrus said it best when she said "GOING OUT DOESN'T MAKE YOU A BAD PERSON. JUST LIKE GOING TO CHURCH DOESN'T MAKE YOU A GOOD PERSON." Not saying everyone is like this, but practice what you preach, ya know?
