My head was spinning, whatever dream I was having now chased away as a groan escaped my mouth. I scrunched my eyes up before fully opening them.
Where the fuck-?
Oh right, I was at Mickey's, I recalled, remembering how I'd woken up in the middle of the night with him passed out by the bed.
I shifted, switching to rest on my other side when I gasped quietly. After spotting a woman sitting in the room, her stomach bulging from a baby growing inside. Svetlana.
I sighed, using the back of my hand to wipe away any remainders of drool from my cheek, "Morning..." I mumbled to her.
"It is afternoon," she stated, glaring over at me, "You sleep all day." I nodded slowly, pushing myself up to slide my legs over the edge of the bed.
I sucked in a breath before saying, "I'm gonna," I stood up and made my way past her towards the door, "Go to the bathroom..."
Closing the bathroom door behind me, I began to strip off before turning the shower on. I hopped in, letting the lukewarm water rinse off anyone's fingerprints I still had on me.
The curtain was yanked back making me yelp. I raised my eyebrows at Svetlana who was standing with a hammer in her hand, "I have baby soon, I cannot work," she explained.
My breathing returned to normal, "Jesus lady!" I frowned. "He must take care of me and baby, you go!" Svetlana demanded before raising the hammer close to my face.
"We do not need you," she continued and the hammer touched the underneath of my chin, "You sleep here tonight in this house?"
"I kill you," she stated, nudging my chin with the hammer, "I bash your orange head!" Svetlana warned me.
I nodded as best I could, "Mm-hm, got it." Svetlana removed the hammer and stepped away before shouting something I couldn't understand. "Yep," I raised my eyebrows as Svetlana looked me up and down.
She left after, leaving me in peace to finish my shower.

I chewed on my bottom lip while I stared up at the house I hadn't lived in for months.
Excitement bubbled in my chest as I walked up the porch to the front door, surprised not to see it hanging wide open.
It was quiet inside which was strange. I shut the doors behind me and glanced around the all too familiar living room.
"What?"
Looking ahead, I was met with the sight of my older sister rushing through from the kitchen. With a smile, I opened my arms, "Come here."
