"Taylor is something wrong with me or what? You've obviously been avoiding me so what is it?"
"Nothing Rayna. I'm sorry I just don't feel good right now. I'll call you tomorrow or something"
".......Alright" I hung up still kind of mad because she was obviously lying. I laid back getting tired. I heard footsteps and turned over to see Jonah. I picked him up and put him on my bed where he started playing with my kitten.
I took a picture of them and sent it to August. He asked where the kitten was from. I told him that she was stray and needed help. I was lying though . An hour later August walked in the room with food, a bed, and stuff for the kitten.
"August does this mean I can keep her?" I asked getting up from my bed.
"Yeah. Can't say no to you" I laughed and ran to give him a hug. He tensed up when I did though. What's up with that? He looked nervous as he poured cat food into a cat bowl causing the kitten to run to it.
"Thank you so much August. You're the best. Now I'm going to get ready to work out so...."
"Oh okay" he left my room closing the door behind him. I changed into some yoga shorts and a sports bra. I got on my treadmill running for a while with my music playing and Jonah sleeping on my bed. There was a knock at the door so I paused the song with my remote.
"Come in" I was surprised when Chris walked in the room with a box wrapped in silver paper with a purple bow on it. "Hey Chris. Are you feeling any better?"
"Yeah a little. I got you something, you know for being a good friend"
"Really? Chris that was so unnecessary! What is it?" He laughed at me and sat the box on my desk.
"Open it" He left my room and I turned my music back on. My phone rang with an unknown number but I still answered.
"Hello?"
"Hi is this Rayna? Kye's older sister?" A male voice sounded quiet on the other end.
"Yes this is her"
"Kye needs you. You're all she talks about. Can you come visit her?" He sounded like he wad hesitating to even continue this call.
"I can't come all the way to Uganda"
"She's not in Uganda. She's still in New Orleans. She lost her baby and she's constantly crying and saying your name over and over. I have to go but the address is 2763 Marrow Drive" He hung up and I got off the treadmill feeling like crying. That's what I did too. August came in the room confused.
"Rayna?"
"I have to go somewhere August. She needs me!"
"Alright just calm down and put on some clothes. Then we can talk about it" I nodded my head as he left the room. I put on some random jeans and a t shirt then put a beanie on my hair. I slid my feet into some Nikes that matched my shirt. I picked Jonah up and took him to Mike.
"Now tell me what's wrong" August said walking up to me.
"My friend Kye from the home needs me. She was pregnant and I guess she lost the baby. She was getting abused and raped at the clients house and she just need me a lot"
"Okay where does she live?"
"I think it was 2763 Marrow Drive"
"That isn't far from here. Let's go" We got in his car and he drove to the house. It looked nice but I can't tell from the outside. I ran up on the porch and knocked on the door. A woman opened it looking horrible.
Her gray hair was up in a ratty bun and she was wearing a pink sleeping gown with brown stains all over it.
"What do you want?" I smelled her breath through the damn screen door! I swear I almost threw up.
"Is Kye here?" When I said that a guy who looked 17 opened the screen door. He pulled me in with August following.
"She's up in her room crying right now"
"Ok can you take me to her room?"
"Yeah" While walking upstairs I seen how disgusting this house was. There was dirt on the walls, broken toys on the steps, sticky stuff on the railing, and bugs in the corners. We got to Kye's room and August stayed in the hallway with the boy. I walked in the room and sat next to her on her bed. She was crying hard into her pillow.
"Jax go away!" She yelled thinking I was him.
"Kye" She lifted her head up looking at me. She basically tackled me with a hug. I held her tightly as she clutched my shirt.
"I missed you so much Ray. I can't take it here!" I kissed her forehead then noticed August waving me over.
"Hold on babe" I got up and August pulled me aside in the hallway.
"Rayna she had to come live with us. I can't let her stay here"
"Are you serious?"
"Yeah"
I hugged him tightly probably thanking him a thousand times. I ran back to Kye's room.
"Kye pack your bags. You're coming to live with me in August's house" Her whole face lit up. I helped her pack her stuff as fast a possible. August took the bags she had and carried them downstairs. Kye said her goodbyes to everyone and ran out because the old lady tried to make her stay.
We took Kye home and up to a guest room. She got settled in then took a well needed shower. She put on some pajamas and I did her long hair.
"I'll be in the basement if you need me okay"
"Okay"
I went to my room and showered. I put on some sweatpants and a soft and loose crop top. I put my hair in a ponytail happy it didn't get wet. I brushed my teeth and washed my face then laid in bed. Kye walked in so invited her to come lay with me.
She slept so peaceful that night.
