Janay p.o.v.
Today I'm finally going back to school its been 2 weeks and i still havent talked to Brandon. I changed my number and I've been staying with Kieran my brothers tell me he tries to come to the house everyday but they don't tell him where i am. Right now I'm eating a banana and drinking some orange juice its almost time for school to start so i grab my things and head out. Reaching campus i feel weird but brush it off mh face is fully healed but i still have these big ugly bruises on my ribs it still hurts but im getting better. I walk into my class just as the bell rings and lock eyes with a tired looking Brandon. He doesn't look like himself his eyes look tired his body looks messy its just not him. When he sees me theirs a spark in his eye i break the stare and walk to my seat he follows me with those sad eyes i just can't bear looking at him. Class starts he tells us our assignment and we begin to work. A few minutes passes by and he calls me into his office i can't disobey his order cause he could get me in trouble with the dean. I follow him and take a seat once we enter he sits on his desk and starts to speak"Where have you been Janay I've been trying to call you I've been going by your house and looking all over for you". I don't say anything i just stare at the floor hoping he will leave me alone mg hopes are shattered as he continues to speak "Janay I'm waiting for an explanation". I muster up the courage to speak my voice is soft but yet firm "Look i don't think we should do this anymore we can't date anymore sorry". I get up to leave and he grabs me i flinch and push him away. He asks why and i lift up my shirt showing him my bruises and tell him"These are why". With that i walk out and continue my work he soons comes back into the classroom looking defeated. The bell rings soon after and we all head out leaving to our next classes. I take a look back at him and he has his hands in his face i can't believe he's crying i try and shake myself of this sympathetic feeling i have but my mind keeps saying But he loves me. The next classes i have go by like a breeze finally I'm in my truck trying to go home but this traffic is terrible. I finally make it home and start making dinner tonight's dinner is home made pizza with hot wings. My brothers love when i make these and so does Kieran in the middle of me putting the sauce on the wings i hear a knock at my door i finish up and put the wings back in the oven. I go to the door and to my surprise its Brandon i ask what he's doing here and he tells me he just had to see me i tell him he needs to leave and close the door. I really want to give him another chance but he's going to have to promise to never hit me again. I finish dinner and everyone digs in and demolishes the food its a good thing i made extras just in case. We finish up dinner clean up and head to bed Kieran goes home and i couldn't sleep so i decide to call Brandon. He agrees to meet me at the nearest park in thirty minutes i get dressed grab my keys and head to the park i don't know what I'm getting myself into but it feels right seeing him tonight.
