Chapter 10|

Tykia's POV

____________

I'm done living with this lady. This woman has really pushed my buttons. She slapped me for no reason! Ugh, I'm done! I'm done with everybody. Fuck David, my mom, and my dad!

I started packing my bags. I was leaving. I'd go stay with grandma for awhile but I'm leaving this place! I had two bags of clothes, which is probably enough to last me for a couple months.

I grabbed my piggy bank, which I had been saving since I was twelve. I opened it and I had $120 all in dollars. I was happy about that. I could take the bus to my grandmas, stay with her for awhile, and then live on from that! Perfect plan!

Now how would I leave without being heard or seen? My mom was in her room so if I left through the front door she could hear me, the front door is really loud. I opened my window. I guess I could get down from here. It was a really big tree right outside my window, so it shouldn't be hard to get down. I climbed onto the tree and climbed down. I was free! I was out of that lady's house or shall I say apartment. I'm surprised none of the neighbors had their windows opened and didn't see me climbing down the tree.

Now I had to walk to the bus stop. I hurried to the bus stop. It took about twentyfold for the bus to come.

I got on and took a seat. My bags were book bags so I took them off and put them in the seat next to me. When the bus pulled off I pulled out my phone to check the time. It was 6:00 at night but i'd probably get to my grandmas house by 6:30 or 7:00.

The bus ride seemed like it took a eternity. The crackheads were singing and talking to themselves, and I was really scared but I choose to leave home so I was alone.

When I was finally off the bus, I had to walk a two blocks to get to my grandmas house. When I was there I knocked hard on the door.

"Tykia? Tykia what are you doing here?"

"I- I was put out." I lied.

"Put out? Why?"

"My smart mouth."

She sighed and opened the door wide enough so that I could come in.

"Now, how long you think you gone be over here?"

"Maybe a couple months. Maybe even the whole summer."

She nodded. "Well, you know your way around here. You can sleep in the guest room and if your hungry I got some steak and mashed potatoes in the fridge. I'm going to bed. Goodnight."

I nodded and she began walking up the stairs. I went to the kitchen and warmed up the steak and mashed potatoes. I ate them slowly cause every other second I caught myself thinking about my mom and what she would do about me leaving. I tried to shrug it off but even when I went to bed I had dreams of her.

In the morning, I heard my grandma downstairs having a conversation with someone. I knew it was my mom. I quickly pulled on a robe and walked downstairs. I saw my mom on the couch looking angrily at me but I ignored her.

"Grandma are we going to eat breakfast?"

"Um, yeah b-"

"So, you run away! I don't know what could have happened to you! I thought you were kidnaped or dead. All over a little slap? Well when you get home I'm beating your butt. Don't play games with me." My mom said careful not to curse in front of her mom.

"I'm not playing games with you and I'm not going home. I'm staying here with grandma. She actually cares about me."

"Momma excuse my language but you got life fucked up if you think your not coming home. You run away because I slapped you? You deserved that slap with that smart ass mouth of yours."

"Y'all calm down." my grandma said calmly.

"No I didn't deserve that slap. If you would stop thinking I'm going to be a whore like you were, none of this would have happened! We were supposed to go on date and you ruined it! Your over protective." I said loudly. It was a little harsh but I was just so angry.

She stood up and looked at me angrily and sadly. "Stay then. Stay Tykia."

She gave her momma a kiss and left.

I should have felt victorious but I felt sad. I felt like I did something wrong. I was right, right?

"Grand-"

"Why? Why Tykia? Why did you have to go that far?"

"I'm so-"

"Don't you dare say your sorry! Go upstairs to your room and think about what you've done! I'll call you downstairs when breakfast is done."

I slowly marched upstairs and went to my room. Now I was the bad guy? Fuck my life. Maybe I ought to stay with my daddy! Naw he strict as hell too.

I pulled out my phone. 42 missed calls from my mom and 2 texts from David.

I'd went through my contacts and called my best friend Lilly.

"Hello?" Lilly said.

"Where are you?"

"I'm at home. What's wrong boo?"

"Can I stay at your house for awhile?"

"Sure. What's wrong though? What's going on?"

"I- I tell you when I get there."

"Do you need a ride? I'll have Tim come pick you up."

Tim was Lilly's brother.

"Yeah. Have Tim come pick me up."

"Alright. You at home?"

"At my grandmas house."

"Okay. He'll be there in a second."

I nodded my head and hung up. Time to move on to the next person. Grandma was starting to get on my nerves. I didn't do nothing wrong, my momma did!
