it's been another week ina half and he still hasn't tried anything.

but he won't tell me why, still.

but he's actually getting ready to leave now because we finally ran out of noodles and he needs to go get some.

somehow without money.

he walked out the hallway i was in. he saw me."stay inside. keep the door locked, and try not to make a lot of noise."

"you should be good, i've boarded all the windows; so nobody can see inside here. it looks like an abandon home from the outside."

he walked over to me. "i'll be back soon. ima just go get some supplies, and food from somewhere like i said."

"where?"

"i walked the street the other day, besides the liquor factory we was at, there's this building. looks like another warehouse, maybe there's food in there."

i gave him a look. "and if there is... you finna steal it?"

"nahhhh honeybun, i'm about to go ask the warehouse people to nicely to borrow they food and shit without paying them or giving it back." he said sarcastically.

i mugged him. "ha ha ha, funny. but seriously i don't think this is a good idea."

he hesitated a little bit kissed the side of my jaw. "no it's not, but we don't really have a choice."

it's like whatever been going on with him has been getting worse, he ain't never hesitated to kiss me before.

but i don't know; maybe hes just anxious and doesn't wanna show it.

but he's never been anxious before.

"if it was just me, i could probably last another week or so because im used to going long periods of time without eating. but i got you with me now. ian about to let you go hungry."

"and if i get hurt, so be it. at least you got food in yo stomach."

"but you already got hurt because of me, nigga." i said, thinking about the scar on his back.

it's healed fully, closed up, allat. but it was still my fault it happened.

"aight? ion mind it happening again." he walked passed me.

well fuck it, i do.

especially since he's been acting the way he has lately.

but there's no point it going back and forth with him. once he's had his made his made up, there's no coming back from that.

"okay fine, but terrel..." i started, he paused.

"yea key?"

here we go. "are you good... ? you've been acting affectionate and shit but in a distant way.... did you inhale too much dust from the house or what?"

it's bothering more than i thought it would at first.

he didn't say anything for a minute, and then he did.

"i'll be back, don't wait up." he walked out the door with his ski mask on after that.

━━

he was gone for hours, so by the time he was back ive already showered and was watching tv in the living room.

i thought about how the water and electricity was still working earlier but then i seen a generator out back.
