Many Times

Chp. 2

Layla

"Alright all done Layla." the nurse said putting the last bandage on my cut up knuckles. "Now you gotta promise me no more hitting walls or people, you might break your hand."

"Aight thanks Doc but can't make no promises." I stated before I walked out of the ER into the waiting room. I honestly don't remember what happened or why I was in the ER or what even happened to my hand. But that all came back to me once I saw Armoney. My blood started to boil.

"Hey baby, you okay?" he said coming up to me. I just brushed passed him like he wasn't even talking to me. I couldn't get far before he grabbed my arm.

"Let me go and leave me the fuck alone I don't know where your hands been. Wait. Yes I do they been feeling up on God knows how many females." I barked. I stormed out into the cool breezy air and rested on a brick wall.

"Hey sissy you good?"

"Need to be asking that girl if she okay I thought she wasn't gone make it all them times Lay pounded her-"

"Shutup fool." Chrissy said referring to Roy. I then felt a body next to me. Before Chrissy could even get her arms around me tears strolled down my cheek. I barely cry so I tried to suck it up but I couldn't.

I just felt like punching something, better yet someone.

I then heard Chrissy's voice again. "C'mon get up cause I can't carry you in the house."

I looked around confused. "What happened?"

"You cried yourself to sleep poor thing." she said.

I shook my head not wanting to think about what happened all today. I just wanted to lay in my bed. I unlocked the door to my parents sitting there. Waiting.

"Do you know what time it is?" my dad started off.

"You guys had us worried sick where were y'all?" my mom added in.

"We were just out having fun and lost track of time."Chrissy said trying to save us.

"Oh! so y'all think y'all can get off that easy? No because that doesn't explain why Layla has a bandage wrapped around her knuckles and why you two smell and look a hot mess." he yelled.

My mom then walked up to me, "Baby what happened?" she said grabbing my wrapped up hand. "Have you been crying?"

"Man just leave me alone I aint trying to hear all this. I already got enough to deal with." I snatched my hand away from my mom and headed upstairs.

"Its them damn highschool kids y'all been hanging around, just cause you turning 18 in 3 months don't mean nothing. You can get out my house with that ugly attitude I'm sick and tired of having to baby you Layla! Act your age, You can kiss that car goodbye too!" he yelled back.

I replied by slamming my door. I felt bad for abandoning Chrissy but it would be best if I got out of there. I turned my phone off and laid in bed rocking myself to sleep.

Chrissy

I don't even know if I can go no more Roy that arguement was ugly asl last night. I texted Roy.

Roy: they probably ain't even serious but let me know tho if not I can always come pick y'all up

Me: Aight thanks good looking

Last night was the ugliest arguement my sister and dad ever had. So bad Lay hasn't came out her room all day and my Dad hasn't even tried to talk to her. The house is just filled with tension.
