If Only You Knew

6.

"Come right on in-" A blank face expression's plastered upon the four female's faces staring at the horror foul play that sat in-front of them.

"What the-" Kamoura began to shout before her grandmother placed her soft shaken hand over her oldest granddaughter's mouth. Telling her to not finish that sentence.

"How did this happen, it was perfectly fine last night" Mckenzie walked on eggshells trying to avoid stepping on the glistening shards of glass that adorned the floor keeping her eyes focused on the hard wooden floor she noticed  her favorite stuffed animal had a huge muddy imprint on its face.

"Um I think it's time to find a new destination because this sort of thing seems to happen often and it's getting weird" Kennedy added as she began looking around curious.

Nobody knew how this could have happen or why their home is always getting being broken into. This is now the 3rd time, they considered it a small incident every time but this was the final straw.

"I'm over it, We're moving tonight no more talking. We are going to clean this mess up and then take a nap and then we wake up we will have our things packed and ready to go"

"But where would we move to in such short distance and find good plane tickets that aren't expensive" Kamoura asked with her hand on her hip as she was leaning against the couch

"We are moving to Florida, It would give us a fresh start. And I have friends who can give me a good enough plane ticket for all four of us. I promise" McKenzie put in, continuously looking down at her phone as her thumbs were going at a rapid speed tapping on her screen.

"I'll sleep on that shit, I'll rather go back to that hotel then keep moving. Damn is y'all niggas fugitives or sum why y'all always on the run" The grandmother spoke up, extending her words making them sound long and dramatic.

"Exactly, but for now we can sleep on it." Mckenzie replied, her frustration evident in her voice.

"We'll figure out the details in the morning. Right now, let's focus on cleaning up this mess and getting some rest. We can't let this situation bring us down. We're strong, and we'll find a way to make things better. Florida sounds like a fresh start"

"I trust that we will be able to help find the plane tickets. Let's stay positive and take it one step at a time." Kamoura chimed in before her voice faded off into the distance

"I DON'T GET NO SLEEP CAUSE OF YALL, YALL AIN'T GETTING NO DAMN SLEEP CAUSE OF ME" Kennedy shouted to the top of her lungs, hitting the two pans together increasing the noise level.

Their ignorance level rises, this was the last straw. They weren't going to be able to take it no more and this was their time.

"KENNEDY SHUT THAT SHIT UP GIRL IT'S TO DAMN EARLY" Their grandmother shouted as her door was cracked open. The noise escalated, waking everybody else up in the house.

"SORRY GRANDMA" She shouted back embarrassed, she simply forgot that her grandmother was living with them. So now instead of just them three it was now four.

Just great another person that I have to take care of, she said in her head. She hated taking care of people, it made her feel as she wouldn't have any time for herself and she hated it.
