Saving Keyanah 🥀

CHAPTER 01

Flashback...

"Just let us eat..." I said almost shouting at my mother , it was always some issue with her especially after she'd snorted a line or drank too much.

Life hadn't always been like this.

"Fuck no! Yall are always in this bitch finishing all my shit!Yall should've died with your damn daddy!" - She shouted in my face ,with drops of spit spraying into the air.

Once she locked the cabinets and went to her room I went and got the spare key , let out a few tears , grabbed a bag and started filling it with food.

"Mommy bad"  Said Kayla, she was holding on to her teddy while drinking from her sippy cup
"No Kayla, Mommy not bad mummy just acting crazy"

"razy" she said ,trying to say crazy
Ain't a child in this world that deserves this...

After packing what little food I could find ,we made our way upstairs
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS NOT THERE?!I LEFT IT IN THE RED BOX!" Beatrice was on the phone shouting at somebody, I honestly didn't give a fuck about her anymore, I was leaving.

Most of our things were already packed in a duffel bag,we didn't have much anyways I'd taken our important documents from Beatrice's room and packed them too.We had nowhere to go but it was getting dangerous here,we had to leave.

Just a 19 year old girl and her 2 year old sister.

We had to leave.

I dressed Kayla up in warm clothes and put on my black hoodie and some leggings, plus my torn up Uggs from that Christmas,put a small knife in my pocket and grabbed my phone off the counter.

"I need you to be very quiet and good for sisi okay?"

"Okay,good for theethee " she whispered in my ear and kissed my cheek
Sweet angel.

I held her on my hip ,while carrying our bags on the other side . One for food and one for our belongings.

Walking down the stairs ,I made sure not to step on the one that creaked cause they'd be loud and ruin our escape plan.

I had to do it stealthily.

And as I got closer to the door I realized I mixed up which step creaked and which one didn't.

Shit let this be the right one.
I anxiously thought while biting down on my lip

I slowly stepped on the stair...
*silence*

Thank God it didn't creak,I reached for the door knobs and slowly turned it ,making sure to do the same as I was closing the door.

Freedom at last.

By the time we got to the bus stop it was dark and the rain was rolling in ,Kayla was playing with her dolls while I was trying to get through to some Shelters where we could spend the night, all of them were full

"Stomach thore " She was done playing and I figured she was hungry by the way she was rubbing her belly

"Aww baby your stomach hurts?you hungry"
After nodding yes I looked through the bag and gave her some Twinkies, there was nothing in there but snacks,and she gladly ate.

She knew nothing anyways,she was just a baby.

all these Shelters and not even one can take us in...I really wish dad was here none of this would not be happening

I sat up with Kayla in my arms and slowly started falling asleep.

"SCREEEEECH!!!"

A Grey sedan pulled up next to where we were seated,when I looked up I saw a tall male dressed in black -I couldn't see his face
I quickly reached for my phone and saw that the time was 01;00am -Damn Keyanah do better. Something bad could've happened to yall while you was snoozing,you really been asleep since 8:00pm
I then quickly tugged at the knife in my pocket and pointed it at the man seeing that he'd gotten closer,Kayla was on a seat behind me crying her little lungs out.
