Chapter 21:
Numb part 2.
---
Jahseh's POV
It was 7:20 A.M. The birds were singing and the spring weather was here. Cars driving by and kids going to school. Jahseh was taking the morning to write a song he had came up with. The word "numb" stuck to him like glue. He wanted to write a song about Leslie, about how she felt. Jah sat down at his desk on the right side of his bed.
He sat down and moved around quietly so he wouldn't wake Leslie up behind him. He took a stack of papers and a pencil out and started to think about the word numb and the way Leslie's felt.
He put the pencil onto the paper and started to write down lyrics.
Numb.
"And every single year"
"Im drowning in my tears. I'm drowning in my tears again"
"I can't seem to forget the pain you seem to give."

A few hours had passed
I finished writing the lyrics. I read through it all and was happy of what I had done. I decided to name the song numb. I sighed quietly and put the stuff away. I'll send this later. I sighed once again and scotted away from my desk and slowly got up. I turned around and jumped. I saw Leslie's tired face look up at me. I smiled instantly.
"Good Morning sleepy head" I said.
She chuckled and gave me a soft smile and held her arms out. I walked towards her and held her tightly. The room was now filled with comfortable silence until Leslie broke it.
"What time is it?" she asked.
Without breaking the hug. I leaned backwards and grabbed my phone. I turned the phone on and my eyes got sensitive from the light. I managed to see the time.
"It's 8:20 A.M" I said. I quickly turned if off and put the phone back on my bedside table. She nodded and we sat there. We had no school today so I wanted to do something to hopefully make her feel better. She really showed not much emotions. I frowned and sighed.
"H-hey we should go get some breakfast" I said.
"No..I'm not hungry" she said.
" well, you are going to eat, weather you like it or not"
She sighed. "Fine.. But can I shower first?"
"Yeah, do you want me to give you clothes?"
She nodded.
"Okay, I'm going to say goodbye to ma then I'll give you clothes" I got up and walked towards my bedroom door and walked out. I walked down the stairs and saw my ma.
"Morning ma" I said.
She turned and around and smiled.
"Morning Jah, how's Leslie?" She asked.
