MATTS POV:
my girlfriend layla has been really busy lately. she's been acting strange. layla and i have been dating almost 3 years now and she's never acted like this before. everyone's noticed her odd behavior. she rarely hangs out with us, she's very jumpy, zones out a lot, looks exhausted, only wears baggy clothes, she's always quiet and acts awkward. i love her so much and so does my family. she used to walk through the door when she came over and run up to my mom or dad and give them a hug but now she knocks and stays by my side. she used to dance around and make jokes with chris but she doesn't take her eyes off the ground really anymore. she used to talk to nick and hangout with him in his room all the time but she only stays in the living room or my room. basically wherever i am when she's over she's with me besides the bathroom. my mom has expressed her concern to layla but layla laughed it off. i've known layla a long time and so has my family to know something is seriously wrong. me, my mom and my brothers decided to go over to laylas house to see if everything was alright with her. once we get out of the car and head to the porch we hear arguing. it sounds like laylas parents. jen and david
jen- YOUR SO FUCKING ANNOYING
david- FUCK YOU
jen- OH REALLY?!? GET OFF YOUR FAT ASS AND DO SOMETHING WITH YOUR LIFE
david- SHUT THE FUCK UP! DO NOT TALK TO ME LIKE THAT! I WORK AND PROVIDE
jen- WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CARED ABOUT YOUR CHILDREN?!?
david- WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!? I TOOK ZANE TO A FOOTBALL GAME THE OTHER DAY!
jen- WHAT ABOUT LAYLA?!? YOU NEVER ACKNOWLEDGE HER ANYMORE
david- MY FUCKING BAD! IM TO BUSY FOR MY DAUGHTER
jen- FUCK YOU DAVID!! i'm done with this shit! WE ARE GETTING A DIVORE YOU PIECE OF SHIT AND IM TAKING THE KIDS!
david- GOOD YOU FUCKING BITCH! GO FUCK YOURSELF AND TAKE YOUR STUPID ASS DAUGHTER WITH YOU! LEAVE MY SON!
jen- OUR DAUGHTER ISNT STUPID! SHES SO SMART AND YOU WOULDNT HAVE ANY IDEA OH AND MY SON ZANE ISNT STAYING ANYWHERE NEAR YOU CUNT!
we were shocked. this is why layla was acting different.
i then heard a yell come from inside. it sounded like layla.
layla- HEY! me and zane are leaving! mom call me if something happens okay? we can meet you at a hotel or something. i have money and my phone. i packed mine and zane's bags so we are all set with that shit.
i then hear a shriek come from inside.
layla- DID YOU FUCKING SMACK ME?!?
david- sure did!
zane- WHAT THE FUCK!
david- shut it boy!
jen- OH YOU DID NOT FUCKING PUT YOUR HANDS ON HER!
i then her another loud smack and crying. the door swings open and i see a red faced crying layla and a puffy faced zane. laylas eyes widened when she seen us on her porch. layla then stepped outside with zane and handed him her keys.
layla- hey bud.. go start my car please.
zane- alright...
