KENNEDY A. STEPHENS|

Kentrell called a UHAUL truck as we unpacked my dorm. Ben and Kd helped us.

"Thank you." I thanked Ben and Kd.

"Anything fo yo fine- stop." Kentrell cut KD off making me laugh

"Anytime sis." Both Ben and Kd said and I gave them a smile as we finished packing the truck.

I went back to finish wiping down the dressers and desk. My dorm was completely empty.

"Ready?" Kentrell asked and i nodded.

"Ken." Someone said making me turn around.

"Heyy." I spoke giving Mela a smile.

"Can we Talk?" She asked and i nodded.

"You good?" Kentrell asked and I gave him a nod.

"We'll be outside." Kentrell said before leaving.

Mela walked me back to inside of my empty door.

"What's going on? Why are you leaving so soon and why are you with him?" Mela asked.

"I found a place to stay so I don't have to leave to Ohio.." I simply replied.

"And Im helping him." I replied.

"It's more than that Ken." She said.

"Maybe but.. I'm here to help him but if it turns out to be more than that.. I'm okay with it." I replied and she gave me a nod.

"It's all over the shade room.. jaz isn't so happy.." Mela said.

"I figured but he's over her and she isn't seeing that." I replied and Mela nodded.

"I know.." she smiled.

"How are you feeling?" She asked.

"Alive." I smiled.

"As long as your happy." She smiled.

"I know that's your friend too so don't feel like you have to.. pick sides or any of that." I explained and she nodded.

"I know.. I love and care for you.. I won't let you ruin your happiness for someone else's." She said making me smile.

I gave her a hug, "I'm happy to see what's coming." I said before letting her go.

"Stay in touch, everything is happening fast." Mela said and I nodded.

"I will." I smiled.

"I love you." She said holding my hands, "I love you too."

"Never thought a thug was your type." She laughed.
