Allayah's Pov:
"Ouch,"I groaned as I got up.
"Whats wrong?"Trinna said from inside my closet.
I turned around frightened as I didn't see her before.
"Its just my head..It hurts"
"Well after all the crying you did last night Im not surprised." She then walked over to my bed touching my head softly,"How are you feeling?"
I looked down.I dont even know what to tell her because im not okay but I dont want her to worry about me.
"Allayah?"
"Im okay,Im okay,"I said ,giving her a reassuring smile.
Trinna was not only my cousin, she was my bestfriend. Whatever I cant tell mom shes always here to listen, and thats why I love her so much.I dont know how I would be without her.
"Earth to Allayah," Trinna said giggling.
I quickly blinked back to reality.I was spacing out again.I have to get my medications before it gets worse.
"Im sorry Trinna, What were you saying?"
"I was saying that we need to go to Walmart to pick up some stuff for the week"
"Oh yeah, we can do that," I said getting out of bed."But first I got to eat,I hardly ate dinner last night and having this headache isnt gonna make it better."
"Sure,Im gonna take a shower so just hurry up and meet me downstairs when your done."
"Okay,"I said.
I quickly went down stairs,ate and then took a shower.
○15 minutes later ○
"I think im gonna wear this," I said to myself.
There was a knock at my room door.
The door opened bringing Trinna into view"Are you ready?" she asked.
"Yeah are you?"
"Yup, lets go"
We went downstairs and out to the car.Walmart was only a 10 minute drive so we were already there.
As we walked in,it was obvious that the place was a bit crowded today and not to mention we passed 2 limousines outside.
"I wonder which Prince charming is here," Trinna said winking at me.
"Or it could be a girl Trinna,"I said shaking my head at her comment.
Trinna is really friendly most times but dont get on her wrong side she'll literally make you go crazy.
Anyways we were walking around looking for what's on the list we have here. Its not alot just because mom tends to love shopping for herself so she'll be out shopping again before the week ends.
We decided to split because Trinna wanted to get something ,so she asked me to just take up the rest of items.
As I was looking round I saw a little girl wondering around the isle alone. She was about 3
"Hi cutie,where are your parents?" I asked her.
She looked up at me with sad glossy eyes and pursed lips .
"I cant find my daddy," she said softly on the verge of tears .
"Its okay Ill help you," I said to her picking her up into my arms trying to comfort her.
"Gracelynn,Gracelynn,"I heard someone shouted as they came around the corner with a little girl. It was a man,a good looking man may I add.
This is not the time Allayah,I scolded myself.
"Ohh Grace what have I told you about wondering off like this?"the man said as he walked up to us with the little girl.
"Daddy I was looking for my stuffy,"she said reaching out to her dad.
He held out his hands taking her from my arms giving her a soft kiss on her head.
I was so distracted watching there interaction that I didn't realize that he was now looking at me.
"Im really sorry about that Mam," he said
"Its fine," I said as I looked away from his blue eyes.
"Allayah, you aren't finish yet?"Trinna said behind me.
I turned around quickly "Actually I am I was just about to go to the cashier now," I replied.
I turned around giving Gracelynn a smile that she surprisingly returned.
We cashed our stuff and then went back home.
