Khalil
I looked at her and shook my head " nah "
She looked at me confused and stood up " why not "
" There's lots of reasons "
" Give me one good one "
I nodded my head," aight you too scary "
" how am I scary? "
" Just look at you,yo little ass probably couldn't watch a scary movie by yourself "
She rolled her eyes and pursed her lips together.
" That has nothing to do with it "
" Alright let me take you somewhere,or do you have to ask mommy and daddy first "
She slipped on her shoes and her coat " I told you they had business affairs "
"-where do you want to take me? "
" Don't worry about it just know I'm driving " I snatched the keys our her hands and walked out the door.
" Come on Ms.lily "

" Where are we,its kinda scary out here "
I shook my head and pulled her to me " see your scary,you Wanna go back home? "
" No I-It's just alittle dark that's all "
" I got you aight ain't shit gone happen to you "
" Ou god-damn you gotta ass like damn,c'mere and let daddy get a taste "
I laughed as she gripped on tighter to my hoodie," girl calm the hell down "
" I'm scared did you hear what that man said to me,oh my god Khalil hold me "
" Didn't I tell you I got you he ain't Gon fuck with you "
" Khalil where are we going?"
" Up here " I pointed up at the building and pulled her with me.
I opened up the door to the old building and held her as we walked in.
" Baby girl you wanna be on my team " an all time pimp named Lucas called out to lily.
" Nah B she good "I spoke up as he tried to touch her.
" Lil Khalil how you doing man? "
I shook my head " lay off that pipe man "
I walked to the back of the building and knocked on the door.
" who the hell is it ? "
" It's me unc. let me in "
Soon after I heard the door being unlocked then the door flew open.
" What's up nephew,you need more money? "
I shook my head and sat down on the little couch and pulled lily down on my lap.
She situated her body alittle so she wasn't putting all of her weight on me.
I patted her leg to tell her to stop moving " now you usually come alone but you brought a pretty lil thang along with' cha "
" I'm just tryna teach her a lil something,but since I was on this side of town I decided to stop by "
" Mm,how Ya mama doing?"
I shook my head and lifted lily off my lap and stood up.
" We'll talk later,take care unc."
" I'm sleepy "she said rubbing her eye lids.
" You gotta bed time? "
She rolled her eyes and started to walk ahead of me.
" Maybe " I chuckled and continued to walk.
" Why are you so - viewed and laid back? " I snapped my head in her direction and shrugged.
" I like to keep to myself "
" Why?" She pushed
" Ion trust many " she nodded her head and stood at the passenger side of the door.
I pulled out my keys and unlocked the door.
" Any place you need to stop at? " I asked her pulling out.
She shook her head and laid her head on the window.
As she slept I sat and thought about today's events.
I never thought I would be helping someone in this way,but shit I ain't complaining.
