(Guy From The Store Above) ☝☝

After all of my classes were finished I was on my way out the building. I only had four classes because I'd completed extra classes last year... You know because I'm not like other.

I pulled my ringing phone from my pocket to see my Bestfriend Laylay calling me. She didn't come to school today because she had a dentist appointment. Which sucked because I wanted to hang out.

She knew about my at home life but hell we were both 17 so what could we do? She basically had the same problems except she wasn't being raped just beaten and called names.

I guess that's why we're so close.... 3 years down and a lifetime to go. I loved this girl like a sister..

Lay- Bestfriend wya
Me-just leaving school hby
Lay-siting Here waiting on you.

As soon as she said that I looked up and seen her in the car waiting on me. I walked over watched as her and Marcus her boyfriend switched places. She hopped in the back and so did I.

"Wassup brother" I said speaking to Marcus... "Hey lil sis" he responded... Me and Marcus became close as soon as he seen how overprotective I was of laylay I didn't like him at first but once he proved his love for her I let him on in.

Me and laylay talked until we got to McDonalds . We ordered and Marcus asked did I wanna go home . I told him no and looked at laylay . She smiled warmly and mouthed it's OK.

Marcus didn't know about my home but I knew if I'd told him he'd probably kill them both seeing as he sees me as a little sister..... Protective like I am for laylay.

We ended up going to Marcus house seeing as he was 18 and had his own house. Me and laylay went to the guest room which was basically mine because I stayed here almost every weekend. We worked on the homework and talked until my phone rung.

"IF YOU DONT GET YOUR ASS BACK TO THIS HOUSE THERE IS GOING TO BE HELL TO PAY!!"
Issac screamed into the phone. I hung up and began to pack up... The tears began to fall.

Laylay must have heard and helped e gather my things. "Bestfriend don't you worry we gone get away from this life and we gone pull through.... You keep on praying and being strong I got you baby"

I looked in her eyes to see tears forming..... My life affected hers just like hers did mine. I gave her a hug and told her thanks and that I loved her. I walked downstairs with her on my heels as she asked Marcus to take me home. "Baby London's bitvh ass uncle called she gotta go"

He nodded and finished smoking his gas. He got up grabbed the keys and we piled into the car again.

Pulling up to Grady St. (Made up) I stepped out the car. Laylay did as well. We walked to the front door and as soon as we made it to the top my mother opened the door. She put on a fake smile and began to talk to laylay.

Lay put her hand up and turned to me. She gave me a hug a whispers that of I needed her to call. I nodded and whispered back that I loved her.

We pulled apart and my mother was now mugging lay. She flipped her off and walked back to the car. She waited until I was inside and they pulled off.

Before I could even think a stinging slap was sent across my face. I whimpered and held my now red cheek. That blow was followed by multiple hits to the chest and head.

I soon became numb to the hits and blacked out. When I came too again I was sitting in the tub... With my clothes on soaking in water that now burned because I had feeling in my limbs again. I sobbed and began to pray once more "God I know you are there.... Give me strength to continue this battle set here for me. God I ask that you send my guardian angle to watch over me. I ask that you forgive my mother and uncle for there sins and have mercy on them while standing before you."

After that prayer I stripped from my clothes and took a well needed shower. The water seeped into my sores and burned. I washed over them lightly and contained my sobbs.

Once I finished I wrapped myself In my towel and walked into my room. I put the wet clothes in the hamper and walked to my door making sure it was locked. I grabbed a sweat suit and threw it on along with some gym shoes. Tonight was the night I got away.

I didn't know where I was gonna go but I had to go somewhere. I grabbed my school book bag and put it on my bed. I grabbed my empty pink bookbag and stuffed it with everything I would need for a week.

I slid my dresser in front of my door grabbed my phone and charger and purse. I put it all in the front part of my bookbag and slid open my window. Almost out when I heard a loud banging.
"London! LOndon! LONDON! BOOM ! BOOM! BOOM! he had broken the door from its hinges and ran towards me . I jumped just in time and he missed me. He ran out my room I assumed to the front door.

I began running and not stopping. I heard his mustang crank up and soon heard his motor speeding up behind me. I looked to my left nothing but houses. I looked to my right and saw the parking lot of what looked like a club. I ran and ducked behind a car.

I heard his car turn into the larking lot and the engine turn off. GOD PLEASE HELP ME I thought. I saw feet coming to award the car and turn the corner. "What the -" shush .....please..... I said...... The man who was now standing beside me was not Issac and quite frankly I'm thanking god.

"Hey man have you seen a girl maybe 5"4 run by here any chance? "I heard Issac ask

The man looked down and I shook my head no . He stammered and soon said "umm actually yeah... Lil shawty came flying through the club door on my way out she in there"

I sighed with relief and waited for Isaac's response "right thank ya bro"

The man waited until Isaac was out of sight and helped me up. I didn't know who he was but I grabbed him tight and cried. He didn't pull away he stood there and held me with comfort.

He told me to get in his car. I wiped my eyes and do so. Stranger or not I had to get away from here before Issac came back. Once we were down the road he spoke. "Why was that man looking for you? "

I sat silently and looked at him. For the first time I could see him.... And it was the same guy from the store... The one I'd called a jerk for laughing when he spilled his drink on me.
