the next day, Cylus wasn't back. it was easy and nice. i got Kayla to her kindergarten, i got johnny to his pre-k. and Raymond stayed with me. hours passed by and I start to drive to Kaylas and Johnny school to pick them up. "how was school guys?!" i said. "great!" they both said. we got into the driveway and there he was, Cylus standing, waiting for us. "stay here!" i said to the kids. i opened my car door and ran up to him. "what the fuck are you doing? you look shot!" i said to him. "waiting for you, hunny.." he said, with a wink at the end. i could tell he was drunk so just ignored him. i knew he was not safe to be around with my kids. i couldn't afford a hotel, or anywhere to stay. so I brought my kids inside, and locked Cylus out of the house. "HEY! LET ME IN!" he started shouting. he took his knife and broke the windows. i knew something bad was about to happen.
