What if I stayed ?

Chapter 3

" Why are you afraid ? "

" I'm afraid of losing people, I'm afraid of losing something that never was mine, and probably never will be mine. He is here only because he feels sorry about me. It really hurts when he sees me like a miserable person. "

" No you're wrong, that's not the reason that he is here... " while Jimmy was talking Yusuf came in. Actually he heard everything because he was right in front the door texting his mom. But thinking about the situation Hayal is right now, he pretended like he didn't hear a word " Hayal, we can leave whenever you are ready " he said.

" You can go Yusuf, me and Jimmy will go with bus. You've done enough for me. "

" No, You're coming with me. You'll stay in my house for a while. "

" No, I said you've done enough. I'm thankful for everything. Now You can go. "

" I won't go without you. And you're coming with me. Please . " he goes near her and holds her hand " Hayal please come with me, just for a few days, then I won't insist. "

She didn't say a word, and Yusuf her silence accepted as an approval. They finished everything in hospital, and was on their way home.

" Yusuf can you stop the car when we arrive in our street. I'll walk home. " said Jimmy.

" You don't want to come in my house ? " says Yusuf.

" I have some stuff to do. I'll come later to see Hayal. "

" Can we go first see my mom ? " asks Hayal.

" we can't now. But I'll ask the lawyer to arrange a meeting. " answers Yusuf.

" Please tell him to hurry. " says Hayal.

" Don't worry, I'll take you to see your mom as soon as possible. " says Yusuf.

" Stop the car over there, I'll walk home. " says Jimmy.

" No, I'll take you home " says Yusuf.

" I want to walk little bit, please stop over there. " says Jimmy.

" ok, I'll do as you wish. " says Yusuf and stops the car.

" Thank you Yusuf. Hayal I'll come to see you and I'll bring your phone. If you need anything text me with Yusuf's phone. Please take care of her " says Jimmy.

" Don't worry, you're welcome to come every time you want " says Yusuf.

Yusuf drives away and Jimmy is on his way home.

I'm really wondering how can Hayal's family turn their back on her. I know that her father is a trash but others...

Hayal always said good stuff about her aunt and her cousins. They didn't even ask if she was ok. I'm really worried about Hayal and what she's gonna do now. I don't know if her family will leave her to live on her house. Because she can't always stay on others' s houses. I really hope that things will get better. I don't know if she will be comfortable in Yusuf's house, I should've asked her to come in my house, but Yusuf asked me to let him take her home, and Hayal's house and mine are near, I thought that she'll be really sad if she sees her house right now, I don't even know if that'll be her house anymore.

He arrives in his house and her mom is waiting for him.

" Jimmy, you came. I was really worried. How's Hayal ? " she asks.

" She's fine physically, but I'm worried about her mom. I almost lost her, my heart is still shaking from fear. " says Jimmy and sobbed. His mom hugs him a says " she'll be alright, everything will be alright. "
