"kyris why does this file have my name on it?" I asked staring at the top of the folder that read my name.

"I don't know alina I just found it. It there something you're not telling me?

"I don't know either I never met this man" I sighed laying my head on the steering wheel trying to think.

"There's a logical explanation for this we just don't need to freak out definitely not you we will get answers just let me drive us back ok?" He said rubbing my back. I nodded and made sure the car was completely in park before getting out and trading places with him.

I sank down into my seat while the music played quietly in the background. I close my eyes and let self slip into the darkness.

"Mom I can't believe you got me the sketch pad and stencils with it this is the best christmas ever" I jumped around holding my sketch pad.

She smiled rubbing her 4 months belly bump. "I'd do anything for my babies"

"Don't forget about me" my dad said while walking with two presents.

"Hey dad" derion said tossing him the new football he got for christmas.

"Whats little man" he said while putting down the presents he was carrying. Then he turned to me. "My baby girl" He opened his arms and I ran into them hugging him tight.

"I got you something" he said while putting me down.

"What about me?" derion said while walking over and hugging him.

"I got you something too" He handed us the two gifts he put down. I opened the box that was really small and smiled. Inside there was a silver necklace from pandora with a diamond paintbrush charm on it.

"Thank you dad it's so pretty" I hugged him tighter.

"Anything for my baby girl" he put me down and smiled.

"dad does this mean that you're coming back home?" derion asked.

"I can't but that doesn't stop me from coming back to visit tomorrow" he stood up and grabbed his keys.

My mom stormed off crying and shaking her head. "Bye kids I love you and i'll be back"

* * * *

I felt someone lightly shaking me. "Lina wake up we're home, lina why you crying?"

"Nothing just a bad dream" I said as i got out of the car and stretched my legs. Kyris nodded as he held our bags then we headed inside the building. I got our keys and opened the door and went inside.

"I'm going to go shower" he said as he set the stuff down in the couch and headed to the back. I went into the kitchen and got out the cool ranch doritos with bacon ranch. I got out a dipper and poured the ranch into it and opened the bag, This most likely ris doritos but do I give a fuck um no.

I sat down at the table and dipped my doritos eating them. I couldn't get that dream out my head. That was the last day I seen my dad. A couple weeks later he got locked up on rape charges and never seen him since.

I sighed and ate a dorito, I hate thinking about my past because it was never good as I see it.

About 30 minutes later I was half through the bag of doritos and ran out of ranch in my dipper. I got up and turned around bumping into kyris. He had on some basketball shorts and no shirt with some nike socks and some slides.

I'm not going to lie kyris is so fine but that's one road I will not be going down. I looked up at him and he was smirking.

"See something you like" he questioned teasing at the fact he caught me staring.

I just shrugged there's no reason to deny anyways. "yeah but eh" I said as I rolled up the doritos putting the chip clip on.

"Hol up I know yo high yellow ass did NOT EAT HALF THE BAG OF THE DORITOS"

I gave him a mug face. "Hold up boy bye you know pringles the only chips that don't sell air so don't play like you ain't know this bag was filled with air"

"I can't believe this now you owe me a brand new bag" he said as he walked to the fridge. I just laughed ain't no way i'm buying a new bag.

"As I see it this is fair I ate half, you can eat the other half bam even" I said putting the back but in the cabinet.

"This is not how this works this isn't how any of this works!"

"To bad this the lina way" I said laughing as I went into my room. I closed my door then stripped out of my clothes. I went into the bathroom and turned on the shower making sure the water was nice and hot. I opened my bathroom closet and pulled out my moonlight path bath and body works set. I grabbed the body wash and got in the shower letting the hot water fall on my skin.

The water is just so relaxing, it feels good to have my own bathroom and not have to share it with random people and only have to clean it up after I use it. After about 20 minutes of showering I turned the water off and got out. I grabbed my plush towel and wrapped it around my body.

I stayed in the bathroom and handled my business then walked out into my room and grabbed some underwear and sweatpants. I grabbed a spaghetti strap tank top and put it on. I tied my hair up and finished unpacking the rest of my clothes. I got kylans portrait and put it by the wall I wanted to hang it on. I left out the room and knocked on kyris door to make sure it was okay.

He opened the door with a blunt hanging out his mouth. "whats up". He said as his eyes raked over my body. I snapped my fingers in his face getting his attention.

"Up here nigga, anyways I was wondering if I could hang up a picture on the wall is that ok?" I asked as I played with my shirt.

"This yo place to lina you don't have to ask" I nodded and he about to close his door.

"Wait" he stopped and looked at me.

"huh?"

"Can you help me hang it up?" I asked giving him the puppy dog eyes. "Pleasee?"

"Yeah I got you ma hold on" He said and went back inside his room a couple minutes later he came back with a hammer and some nails. I went inside my room and he followed me.

"So what am I hanging?" He asked. I bent down and picked up kylans framed portrait and handed it to him. He looked at it for a few minutes not saying anything.

"Is it bad?"

"You drew this?" He asked looking up at me. I nodded,"Yoo this is hella good it looks just like kylan I ain't know art was yo thing"

"Yeah it was thanks for the compliment so you think you can help me?" I asked.

He laughed and set the picture down. I sat on my bed and waited for him to finish. Ten minutes later he was hanging the picture up on the nail.

"Thanks kyris I really appreciate it" I said as I got off the bed and hugged him.

"No problem ma but next time put on a bra before you hug me because i'm still a nigga and never mind" He said as he hugged me and let me go.

I laughed and covered my chest. "I'm sorry I really forgot about that"

"Nothing to be sorry about" He said as he picked up the hammer and rest of the nails and left out my room. A couple seconds later he came back I looked at him.

"Lina I know you wondering why your name was on that folder, Im wonder too he connected with dren so maybe he knows but we will found I promise you that" I smiled and he nodded the left the room closing my door.

These past couple of days been long. I think about what derion said about kyris a lot. But I dont think hes a bad dude, he's really the only friend I have. I got in the bed and laid down letting sleep take over. You never know how exhausted you really are til you take a shower and lay in fresh sheets.
