Charm: going into Chloe room) you okay sis?
Chloe:( nods) yeah
Charm: what happened?
Chloe: some boys hurt me at the party. I don't want to talk about it charm
Charm: nods) okay, well feel better sister (bends down and hugs her) I love you
Chloe: I love you more sissy
(Charm leaves out)
Charmaine:( on the phone with Porsha) she's okay, she's in her room laying down right now
Porsha: poor baby, how are you feeling?
Charmaine: I feel so guilty (sighs) I stayed up all night crying and blaming myself
because I wouldn't let her go until she finished her chores and I kept telling her not to go. She wanted to and I felt like I wasn't letting her be a teen so I said yes. This could've been prevented.
Porsha: don't beat yourself up, you're an amazing mother and it was not your fault
(Chloe comes and knocks on the door)
Charmaine: come in
Chloe:( walks in and gets in the bed) hi mama
Charmaine: hey baby, tt Porsha on the phone wanna say hi?
Chloe: hi tt
Porsha:hey baby, you alright ?
Chloe: I guess, nothing we can do about it
Porsha:(sighs) I want you to know it's not your fault. Those boys were ignorant
Chloe: everyone keeps saying that
Porsha: well baby I want you to get some rest, me and uncle Marcus still coming to visit you next weekend okay
Chloe: okay
Charmaine: alright Porsha I'll hit you up later
Porsha: alright bye girl
(They hang up)
Chloe: can I lay with you ?
Charmaine: yeah baby that's fine, did you eat your food ?
Chloe:(nods ) yeah, where's dad?
Charmaine: had to go to church and check out the sound. Leslie said it wasn't working during choir rehearsal
Chloe; oh, can I ask you something?
Charmaine: of course
Chloe: when you were raped, how did you get over it ?
Charmaine: I had ollie by my side. He always checked on me and he tried to keep me away from the drugs. You just gotta have a good support group.
Chloe; sighs) everybody is gonna be talking about it at school
Charmaine: I don't think they will, Alicia and Chris the only people that was up there. I don't think no one else knows
Chloe; are they gonna be at school?
Charmaine: no, the police locked them up last night, you don't have to worry about them
Chloe: it hurts so bad mama, I tried to get them off
Charmaine: I know honey trust me I do.(rubbing her back) everything is gonna be okay I promise you.
Chloe; okay
Charmaine pov: Chloe laid next to me and eventually fell asleep. I felt so bad for her. I wish I could take this pain away.
