Sabrina POV

I came home from the hospital about almost 10 am I was beat. I wanted to take a shower and go to sleep. Jermaine was getting medication and Torrance is up there with him so I didn't have no worries. I wanted to stay with him but he wanted me to go and get so rest. I walked in the house and I can over hear my parents arguing. Soon as when I shut the door, they stared in my direction.

"Where the hell have you been little girl? " my dad asked me. I wonder why he acting like that when I texted my mom early this morning where I was.

"I was at the hospital I texted mom that, " I said walking up the stairs.

"Where are you going? Sabrina bring your ass back down here, " he said walking behind me. I turned around and he was right there.

"What? " I said.

"Where were you? " he spat at me.

"At the hospital I told you that already. What else do I have to say? " I spat back at him.

"Who you better not be with that hood ass nigga? " he said and I got mad. I was highly upset that he was talking about Jermaine like that. I mean he may not be leaving that right life but at least he's trying to change.

"And if I was, " I said walking past him into my room and he pushed me against the wall.

"Watch it little girl. You don't want to test me, " he said as I was pushing him off but he wouldn't move.

"Dad move, " I said. "Dad... GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME?!" I kicked him in the side. And he let go. I was grabbing my clothes and stuffing them into the Duffel bag. I walked pass him but he pulled me by my hair back.

"Get off of her, " my mom said trying to get him away from me and he slapped her. That's was the first time I ever saw him put his hands on her. I punched him in the face and kicked him on ball's. I grabbed my keys, my mom and the duffel bag and walked out the house to my car. We got in and drove to my Aunt house. We drove in silence into my mom cried into her hands. I wanted to cry as well, I'm hurt that the guy I looked up to for years put his hands on the woman he loves or at least said he did. We arrived to my Aunt house and parked in her driveway. We got out and knocked on the door. She immediately came to the door and hugged both of us.

"Come Jasmine your going to be fine here, " she said as she hugged my mom as she cried on my aunts shoulder. I felt bad that I couldn't be with my mom right now. I told them I'll be back later and my mom kissed my forehead and my Aunt hugged me and told me to be safe. I told them I love them both and was on my way I don't know where but to get away from everyone. I drove to this lake river front luckily nobody was there. I'm glad so I can get everything out. Torrance text me saying Jermaine got discharged and I said ok. I left my phone in the car and got out. I walked towards the lake and just stared at it. Why is this happening, is it because of Jermaine? But nothing bad has happened or anything but what my dad did is out of line. I screamed from the top of my lungs to the lake as I started to cry. I didn't understand why this was happening to me and especially my mom. Why did he put his hands on her? I guess I would have to wait to know that answer. I kept crying trying to get it all out before I go where ever I'm going to go.

At around 7 I left the lake and got in the car. I check my phone and had like 20 missed calls. Half from my mom and the other half from Jermaine. He even text me.

My Everything : why are you not answering you phone????

I don't know how to tell him that my dad hates him or me being with. I just was going to tell him when everything settled down. I got to Jermaine house and saw his car wasn't there. Where did he go? I called him and he answered on the second ring.

"Now you wanna call me, " he said sounding mad.

"Sorry Jermaine but something happened earlier can you come home so we can talk, " I said and he sighed.

"I went to the store but I'm on my way back now, " he said.

"OK, " I said hanging up.

He finally got here and I sat on his porch. My face looked horrible right now but I don't care. He walked up to me and lifted my head up. His eyes went soft as he knew what happened. He just picked up and carried me inside. He carried me upstairs to his room and sat me down on the bed. He just caressed me in his arms. I couldn't help but cry and he let me. He rubbed my back as I curled up and cried in his chest. I was so hurt inside he just didn't know.

"Baby it's going to be okay I'm here, " he said and those words just made me cry even more.

After my sobs I was about to leave until he grabbed me.

"Why you leaving? " he asked me.

"I have to go see my mom. I'll talk to you later, " I said not looking at him.

"Wait sit down. Talk to me, let me know whats going on. Sabrina please sit down, " he said and I sat down on the bed next to him.

"Now tell me why you wasn't answering when I called you and why you so broken, " he said and I rubbed my eyes.

"My dad and I got into it and my mom was trying to break us up and he hit her, " I said and I could tell he was getting mad.

"Did he put his hand on you? " he asked me.

"Not intentionally but, -" I said but he cut me off.

"DID HE TOUCH YOU SABRINA? " he asked me again this time more hostle.

"He pulled me by my hair and pushed me against the wall that it, " I said and he nodded.

"Don't do anything I took my mom to my Aunt house so she's fine. I told her I was going to come to check on her. I went to the lake to cry that why I didn't answer your phone and he was talking about you that's why we got into it. I didn't like how he was talking down about you. I love you and it's fucked up because that's my dad. My own blood and he turned on me like that, that's fucked up, " I said as tears pour down my cheeks.

"It's ok babe I'm sorry, " he said and I looked at him funny.

"What the hell are you sorry for its not about you, " I said and he looked at me.

"Yes it is he doesn't want me with you, " he said getting loud.

"So what the fuck you saying Jermaine you leaving me now because my daddy doesn't like you. I don't give a fuck what he says I'm not dating him I'm dating you, " I said and he nodded.

"Listen I never said I was leaving you so cut that shit out I'm just apologizing for your mom getting hurt. If he don't like me that's his business its only my business when it has to do with you and your mom. Let's go I wanna see her too, " he said and he grabbed my hand. We walked out his house and drove to my Aunt house. When we got there we knocked on the door and my mom came to the door. The side of her face was still red but she looked fine. She hugged me and stroke my head.

"Hey sweetie, " she said hugging me.

"Hey mom, " I said hugging her back.

"Hey Jermaine, " my mom said hugging him.

"Hey ma, you good? Do I have to make a trip to your house and rough him up?" he asked her.

"Jermaine, " I said looking him like he was crazy.

"No Jermaine it's fine. Sabrina roughed him up enough," my mom said laughing and he looked at me.

"You didn't tell me that, " he said smirking at me.

"Because you didn't need to know," I said going in the kitchen. We stayed and talked for awhile. My mom was telling me about that my real dad was a lawyer so they broke up before I was born but was with someone else when I was born. I was shocked but it was coming eventually. He looked nothing like me yet that nigga put his hands on my mom and me as well. My mom was saying she's getting a divorce because he was doing this for a while. I do see my dad but every other month. I saw him on my birthday as well. I call that guy my dad so he can feel as though his fit in my life and he was at the time till he crossed the line. I didn't want to see him or have nothing to do with him. It was time to go and I kissed my mom cheek and told her I'll see her later. Jermaine hugged her and she smiled. We got in the car and he kept messing with me. We got in the house and cuddled till I fell asleep in his arms.
