Matthew 6:33-34 "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be provided for you. Therefore, don't worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."Kiya's POV
Later that night...
"Lord I just don't know what went wrong..I mean as soon as I mentioned I was praying he just kind of seemed uninterested to even talk anymore." I sighed "I'm not going to stress about it, I can't let the devil try to get to me so I'm just going to give it to you because you are in charge always."
After my talk with God I left to do my normal night routine then remembering I still have homework that's due tomorrow. Walking over to my bed I look out my window at the neighbors house seeing a window that's right across from mine with a bright light shining through.
"Ahhh" I screamed as I saw a figure moving across their window. Slowly peaking from behind my curtain,I saw him, the figure, also known as De'kedrian. 'Wowww, I forgot he lived right next to me. And lucky me his room is right across from mine.. I mean it's not a bad thing, maybe this could be my way to find out more about him.' Lost in my thoughts I forgot that I'm standing in the middle of my window looking straight into his room, and when I came back to reality my eyes met his. I froze.
Slowly taking steps back, I watched as he grabbed a yellow notepad writing something down. Confused, I stopped my movement watching what was going to happen next. He finished writing putting the pad on the window that read "so you stalking me now'. Looking up at him, he held a smirk on his face. Thank God that I am brown because I am totally blushing right now. Turning away I bid him good night and got in my bed. After laying there for a few seconds I felt a familiar feeling coming on; I hopped out of my bed turning on the light and there it was...anxiety.
Lance's POV
Earlier.....'What is it with these Christians ...I thought only older people believed in that but now they got teens wrapped in it to. I mean what so special about him..he left me.' As soon as she mentioned she prayed I kind of just felt like she was someone I didn't want to be around. Another one of them who pushes their beliefs on other people. I hope she didn't except to get a reaction out of me cause it wasn't going to happen.
Not long I made it back to the house, or should I say the home, their home. Living in a foster home is hard, harder than what people see in the movies that they make about foster kids. I basically live in an orphanage. Growing up with no parents make you tough and if that don't.. growing up on the streets will. Trust me I've had my fair share of it all. Tortured and beat, moving from house to house; I say house because I've never had a place to call home before. No family, barely had any friends..but I'm okay with that. As long as I focus on football and getting my grades I'm good! They my only ticket out of here.
"De' Kedrian, gone head and get that food started then start on y'all homework, make sure them kids don't tear up this house now. I'm gone, I'll be back later tonight." Ms. Jazz said looking back at me walking out the door.
Ms. Jazz is over all of us, I think she just in it for money because she ask us to do everything she supposed to be doing. Since I'm the oldest I do mostly all the work. It 8 of us, you got little Leila, Milo, Kierra, Matt- short for Matthew, Liam, Jules, Thomas, and me. It tough living here but I try to make the best of it, got to set an example for the rest, let them know that they can make it out of here just like I'm going to.
"Is she leaving again?" I looked down to see little Leila looking at me with her cute brown eyes.
"Yea, she gone. But don't worry I got y'all."
"I know. De, you know what coming up in three days!" She said with excitement glistening in her eyes.
"Nah, what coming up again?" Looking at her playfully.
"Noooo, you member it's my birthdayyyyy!!" She screamed.
"Ahhhh" I screamed going to tickle her. "Yesss I remember mama, come help me make dinner."
"Yes sir" she said running into the kitchen giggling.
After dinner I made sure everyone got started on their homework. Seeing that they did, I went to my room to get started on mine. Looking toward my window I noticed that not only my blinds was open but hers to. Looking down I began to turn pages in my notebook to bring me to my homework for my first class.
After a while of getting started on my homework, I felt a strong urge to look up and when I did my eyes caught hers..looking back into mine. She slowly eased back trying go out of view. Trying to hide my smirk I picked up my notepad and began jotting, showing her. Saying goodnight she turned and left. Not to long after that I see her again walking back and fourth. 'What is wrong with her' I sat thinking. Suddenly she stopped, her chest heaving up and down...I also see tears. I don't know what it is but I was very concerned about her.
Without hesitation I threw on my shoes and sprinted down stairs.
...........................
Hey guys!! The ending was a bit rushed, forgot I had to work today lol. But I hope y'all enjoy it and remember you can turn to God for anything. He wants to hear from you all, always talk to him and PRAY read your Bible, get closer and closer to him everyday. He loves you most. God Bless ❤️
