"get up"
I feel the blood fall out of  nose and onto the
floor.

I look up .  My eyes blurred from tears.

I narrow my eyes and stand back up.
NO.
i watch in horror as he slams against the wall.
I take a few steps back and wait for him to stand back up.

I he presses his hand on a cut thats now sitting on his forehead.

"Inject her."

"No, please"
I say backing into the corner.
Two men come and grab onto my arm.
"Please, Ray. I didnt mean to"

He comes close to me and puts a hand on my face.

"I know"
"Now inject her"

I let out loud screams as a nurse with a face mask comes into the room.

"Please,please" I tremble as she taps the needle.

"Turn off the lights"

"Zio!"
I look all around the room and see nothing but darkness. I struggle to let out a breath and i put a trembling hand to my throat.

My vision slowly comes back and the ringing in my ears decreases.

"Zio,"

I put my hands out and fall into the figure sat in font of me. I grip them tightly, trying to slow my breathing.

"Breathe in."
I follow the instructions with my breathing.

"hold it."

"breathe out"

I feel my chest slowing down as I sit up straight .

I put a hand to my head as my vision clears.
my eyes focus to him in font of me.
Tazer is sitting on the floor next to me. His arm firmly gripped onto my left shoulder.

His eyes filled with emotion. But the rest of his face,nothing.

I take one more breath out and all the clothes floating in the air fall to the ground.

I feel my eyes beginning to close, and I let myself fall into him .

——-
I sit up abruptly.
I look at the bed beneath me.

I pull the covers off me and open the bedroom door and make my way to the kitchen

I see Tazer. He's sitting at the small table eating cornflakes.

"Morning." I say walking over to him.
"Morning" He replies still looking down at his food.

I sit down in the chair opposite him.
"Thankyou for last night." I say
"Minor." He replies looking up at me.

————-

"What do you mean those are your only clothes?" He says sitting up from the sofa

"Well does it look like I have anything else on me?" I reply

He sighs and gets up.
I watch him leave and go back to watching easterners.

"Here." He says chucking over a black nike tech hoodie and some trousers.

"Wow we can be matching." I say sitting up.

He kisses his teeth. "Hurry up"

——————
I pull the oversized hoodie tight over myself as the two boys closen.

Tazer stands becides me, a nonchalant expression over his face.

"Lets get this food."
