I pulled into my driveway and lifted her up, over my arm, with her duffel bag in my other hand. When I saw her stripping, I could tell she was out of place, and distant. Her mind was somewhere else, but the way she was grinding on the pole, it hid all of that.
I laid her in my bed and let her rest while I went downstairs and watched TV. I turned on Martin and started to doze when I felt a presence behind me.
I turned quicly to see her flinch. Her hair was all over her face while her eyes were light brown.
"You can sit down," I said turning my attention back to the TV, so I wasn't staring at her.
"Ok," she said quietly, sitting at the other end of the couch, with her feet pulled into her chest.
"Can I ask you a question," I said catching her off guard.
"U-uh y-yeah," she stuttered.
"How come everytime I see you, you're crying," she blinked back tears and looked around.
"I don't have the best life, I guess some just don't have it like this," she said, her voice shaky, her eyes wandering around my living room.
"So why don't you do something about it," I said.
"It's not that easy, I tried, I had someone and they left me, I found someone else who said they had me and they left, It's not like I don't try, cause I do I-," she spilled until she stopped. "I don't want to get hurt again."
"Don't you have to get hurt, to get better," I said scooting close to her.
"Yeah, but I don't want to hurt so I stopped trying," she said putting her head down.
I lifted her chin."Then how are you going to get better,"

I woke up on his chest.
I tried to move a little but I woke him up.
"Goodmorning," he said stretching his arms.
"Morning," I said I said quietly, about to move when he picked me up and sat me in the kitchen. I laughed a bit as he went and started on breakfast.
"I never did catch your name," he said pulling out eggs and bacon.
"Giavonni but I go by Gia,"
"Kam or K," he replied back.
Once he finished cooking we ate and sat at the table just talking about random stuff:
"You like having a sister," I said questioning him as he talked about his family. I ignored his questions about mine, in case he went deeper than I could handle.
"Yeah it's aight, they're annoying but I love em, you have any siblings?"
I shook my head yes as I finished with my plate, placing it in the sink.
"I'm about to take you home, get to stuff," he said placing his plate in the sink. I got my things and we got in his car.
He pulled up into my raggedy neighborhood, and I pointed him through with directions. He pulled up to my house.
"You live here?" he questioned.
"Yeah why?"
"One of my hoes live here, you know Kaila?"
"That's my sister," I said getting my stuff out of the car, avoiding any further conversation. I walked to the house unlocking the door, when Kaila bombarded me.
"What the fuck were you doin with Kam bitch?" Kaila said cornering me.
"Nothing he just gave me a ride," I said trying to get past her.
"He won't be doing that again or your ass is getting fucked up you here me," she said through gritted teeth."YOU HERE ME!" she yelled.
"Yes," I said putting my stuff down.
I went to my room and opened my bag seeing 3 stacks in it. I opened the bottom seing the money I made from stripping fall out.
I was definitely gonna give his money back, but I needed to figure out how to give it to him without K freaking out. I got in the shower washing my hair and body trying to figure out what to do when the bathroom door opened. The shower curtain pulled back to se my mother's high and angry face.
"YOU TRIED TO STEAL MY MONEY," she yelled.
I screamed as she pulled me out the shower by my hair.
"Heeeeelllllpppppp," I screamed, but I forgot.
'I'm alone.
No one cares,'
I thought as my mother hit me over and over.
"YOU TRIED TO STEAL MY MONEY, YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE HERE YESTERDAY NIGHT," she screamed hitting me.
"I missed the bus I didn't have anyway of getting home," I cried.
She stopped looking at me.
"Since you missed the bus, give me all of it," I gasped as she held her hand out.
"It wasn't even my fault Marcel-,"
"Don't you bring my boyfriend into this it was your fault not his, no give me all if it," she said grabbing me.
I went into my room and gave her half of it hoping she wouldn't say anything.
She walked off slamming her door.
I went into my room examining my bruises in my arm, face, stomach and legs. I grabbed my razor and laid my head back as I threatened to cut myself. I dropped the razor as I cried, covering my face.
What I would do to be PERFECT.
I would give everything to have a better life.
What I would give just for some one to love me.
