Chapter 8

2 weeks later

Bryan

Been trying to talk to Layla for days, but she won’t talk to me. I wanna go crazy on her for what she did to Aria, but it would only make everything worse. I was still pissed at her though. She stayed in her room for the most part. I was growing sick of the silence so I walked into her room. I knew where this was going…

“So you’re just not gonna speak? You should be ashamed of yourself seriously”

She didn’t turn around to look at me, she just sat there

“I’m not leaving until you tell me what the hell is wrong with you”

She took a sip out of her bottle and put it back down by the foot of the bed. I went over and took the bottle and she grabbed my arm

“Layla this shit isn’t you at all cut it out!”

I pulled her off of me and went downstairs and took the rest of the bottles she had. I started dumping them in the sink when she came downstairs crying

“Bryan stop it!”

“No Layla, you tried to kill your fucking daughter you have an issue…”

“No I don’t … I wanna apologize to Aria”

“She doesn’t wanna speak to you Layla! You ruined whatever bond you two had… I really can’t believe you’d do this”

“She hates me?”

“Stop acting so surprised”

“I wasn’t in my right state of mind Bryan! I’m sorry”

“I’m not the one you should be apologizing to… stay off the alcohol and get help”

I grabbed the empty bottles and dumped them in the trash. I heard her crying, but hat didn’t stop me from leaving. I was officially disgusted with her.

Kelly

Aria’s sleeping on my chest as I try to force myself into a good nap. She’s been a lot more quiet these past few weeks, which kind of worried me. I don’t want her to go back to that place where she was a few months ago. I was half way asleep when I heard the doorbell… Thought it was a dream really. I crawled out of bed and went to answer it was Salisha…

“What are you doing here Lisha?”

“I wanna talk”

“No, I’m busy”

“You were always a terrible liar, you JUST woke up”

“What do you want, its really not a good time”

“When is it ever a good time for you Kel?”

“Never, look Salisha we’re done!”

“You say that now… why, is there some other chick in the picture?”

“Listen Salisha I’m tired of your bullshit, all you do is lie and set me up I don’t have time for that, I’d rather spend my time with someone else”

“What are you saying Kel?”

“We’re over, we’ve been over… It was a mistake going back to you Salisha…”

“Kel you don’t even know what you want!”

“Yes I do… what I want is my girlfriend and my daughter, not the drama and craziness with you”

“Your daughter?”

“Yes I’m having a kid”

“…You’re kidding right? After ALL we’ve been through you play this card with me”
