My Love In The Wrong Hands

Chapter 37

Lyric POV

"Lyric ." I heard my dad yelling from down the hall.

I was standing in the mirror changing my neck bandage. I have to clean it once a day to keep it from getting infected until I go back to get my stitches removed. I had to get 10 put in.

Looking at my neck was so depressing.
It was a consistent reminder of the the day that I almost lost my life, the pain that I went through in the past to get to this point, and the mistakes I've made.

It's so hard not to fall into depression when it seems as though everything around you is falling apart completely.
It's a battle but it's one I refuse to loose.

"Lyric ?" My dad called once again.

"Yes ?" I asked opening the door to see him walking towards me.

"Does your therapist come tomorrow ?" He asked me as I walked out the bathroom.

"Yes" No I do not have my speech back completely if you were wondering but I am able to say a few things. I can say no, yes, ma, and dad clear. Mostly anything short, everything else is a struggle but I'm getting there. I did have her work with me on something special for Jordan though. I've been practice the past couple of days but I think I got it now.

My therapist comes to my house three times a week for two hours.
I pulled out my phone and texted my dad that she only comes Monday,
Wednesday, and Thursday. 

"I told your mother I knew what I was talking about but anyways what you doing today ?" He asked following me in my room.

I texted him. "Nothing, just waiting on Jordan to come past with his sisters."

"You know Rylie got a crush on the youngest one."

I texted "Yeah, I peeped it at the hospital. "

"Every time I mess with him he say I don't like her dad. Stop saying that. She ain't even my type ." He said shaking his head.

"You know he lying ." I texted rolling my eyes at Ry foolishness.

"I know but look I'm going to get out of your hair and go bother your mother. Text me if you need me."

I nodded in return.  After he walked out I laid down in my bed. I was dog tired. I guess now I could get some rest. I haven't got any of that since I've been home. If I'm not working with my therapist then someone is over here keeping me up. I've had my coworkers come past and even some family members.

I guess by now you all have figured out that I decided to come home. Jordan was a little upset that I didn't choose to stay with him but in the end he respected my decision. To be honest there was no difference in me being here then at his house. He's always here and if he's not then he's texting me nonstop.

He'll text my phone but if I don't reply fast enough for him he'll text my iPod. I took it off read but eventually he got hip to me and made me put it back on. 😒😂

I love him y'all but he's being a bug a boo and so are the girls. All of them. Alayah, Shay, Kina, Skylar, and Kenzie. They all be down my throat one at a time. They stay trying to drag me out the house. The only time I go out is when I have a doctor's appointment. I'm not comfortable with leaving the house and I won't be until they find Rell.

I try to keep a smile on my face at all time but it's hard. I can't even sleep throughout the night peacefully. The second day home I woke up in the middle of the night having a panic attack, since then I've had to sleep with my room door open and the light on. It gives me a little more piece of mind. Sometimes I even make Ry sleep with me. Hopefully they find him soon so this can be over with.

....

" I missed you sissy pooh ." Mackenzie said bouncing on my bed in front of me.  As soon as I woke up Jordan called  me and said they was outside.

"You seen her yesterday Kenzie." Skylar said after giving me a hug.

"What's your point Sky ? It's been almost 24 hours since I seen her. That's long enough to miss somebody."

" She just wanted to see your brother. That's all that was."

I watched Kenzie give Skylar the meanest mug.  "Actually no I don't. He be wanting to see me. I don't pay him no mind. I got a man." She said matter of factly.

"Who ?" Sky asked giving her a girl bye face.

"My lord and savior Jesus Christ." We all busted out laughing.

"I'm just playing but seriously though I had a question for you Lyric."

"Yes." I said looking at her.

"I've never ask you but how does it feel not being able to really talk ?"

"What kind of question is that Mackenzie ?" Skylar asked her.

I just laughed writing down on pad " Its very frustrating at times. I get tired of writing everything down. It makes me want to scream and cry all at the same time. I'm just grateful that I'm slowly getting back to my old petty self." Then pasted it to her.

I watched her read it before she started laughing "Bye Lyric, you didn't have to add that last part."

"What? I want in on the joke to ." Skylar said looking lost.

"She talking about she can't wait to speak again so she can go back to her petty ways." Mackenzie said rolling her eyes playfully

"I can't stand you ." Skylar said giggling.

"What y'all laughing at in here ?" Jordan asked walking in my room.

"None of your business." Mackenzie said.

"Yeah okay but y'all let me holler at Lyric real quick."

"Okay." They said getting up.

"Don't let me find you all up in Rylie face Kenzie." Me and Skylar started laughing.

"Man bye. Y'all so annoying." Kenzie said stomping out the door while we continued to laugh.

"You good ? You look a little out of it." Jordan asked laying next to me after they left out. I nodded. "You know I love you right ?"

"Yes." I smiled before kissing him. I picked up my phone and texted him. "Guess what."

I watched him reach into his pocket and pull out his phone. He unlocked it and looked at it before looking back up at me and asking " What ? "

I turned to him then took a deep breath before saying "I loveee you too."
