You Saved Me: An Omeeka Story

Chapter 1

Nicki POV
"Jamal please don't do this! We can try again. It's not my fault!" I pleaded. But, I'm Onika, but you can call me Nicki. I've been with my abusive fiancé Jamal for two years and I'm scared to leave. But I got pregnant and lost the baby and he got mad at me saying it was my fault. But I was on the ground, shaking and crying because he had a bat in his hand. He put it down and started laughing. He slapped me and punched me in my stomach.
"I'm sorry I-I didn't do anythi-" I was crying hysterically.
"Shut yo ass up!" He yelled spitting in my face.
"I love you Nicki and you know I don't want to hurt you. But you gotta stop with all your shit!" He yelled looking at my busted lip and black eye.
"Go wash up. With yo ugly ass." He said
"But if you didn't beat me my baby would still be alive!" I yelled and he walked out the room leaving me there. I locked the door and packed a bag and called one of my good friends, Meek.
"Hey what's good ma?" He answered.
"Nothing. He beat me again but I need you to take me from here. Be out front at 9:30pm, no later." I said and he sighed.
"I got you. But I have a meeting so I gots to go. Bye." He said and hot tears rolled down my face and I silently cried.
"Okay,bye." I said and hung up.

"Thank you so much." I said and looked at Meek driving.
"Your welcome. You finally left that nigga. He definitely didn't deserve you." He said.
"Your moms house this way right?" He glanced at me and I tried to avoid eye contact.
"Um, I was thinking can I stay with you?" I asked and he tried to hide his smile.
"Uh. Of course." He said making a turn he said making a turn.
Meek POV
I grabbed her stuff out the car. She followed me to the guest room.
"Here you are. Help yourself to anything around the house. Call me if you need anything. I'll be in my room." I said and she sat on the bed quietly looking around the room and I shut the door giving her privacy. I went to my room and put on basketball shorts and a tank top.
In the middle of the night. Nicki came and knocked on the door opening it slowly.
"Can I, uh sleep with you? I don't want to be alone." She had tears rolling down her cheeks and I scooted over.
"Come on." I said and she laid next to me and got close up under me.
"Am I too close? I'll move." She said and I kissed her lips.
"Man, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do all that." I said.
"What if I liked it and wanted you to do it again?" She asked smiling.
"It's like that ma?" I said kissing her again. She nodded and smiled.
"Nicki I've always had feelings for you. So do you wanna be my girl? I know you just got out of a relationship but I wanna give it a try." I said and she scooted close to me.
"I'm am willing to give it a try.But please don't hurt me." She said
"I will never hurt you baby." I said I wrapped my arms around her. Then we fell asleep in that position.
•••
I woke up to the smell of breakfast and I went downstairs to see Nicki walking around the kitchen. She was hunched over and wincing in pain with each move she made.
"Ahh. Ouch." She said and rubbed her stomach.
"Baby? Good morning." I said and she quickly corrected her posture.
"Good morning I making you breakfast so just let me finish this for you." She said and I shook my head.
"Nah I'll finish I know how to cook. But why you moving in pain like that?" I asked and she turned back to her old hunched over posture.
"Well I didn't want you to know. But look at me. He beat me in my stomach multiple times and punched my lip and busted it obviously and blacked my eye when he beat me. But I'm fine cause I'm used to it." She said and I sighed and flipped the eggs for her and she sat down watching me.
"There's some Advil's in that cabinet right there. Take one because your obviously in pain." I said and she went to get it.
"Don't get used to that shit no more. Your with me now you know I'll never hurt you." I assured her and she came up and kissed me passionately.
"I lo- uh what you want to drink orange juice or water?" I asked and she cleared her throat.
"Water." She said and I nodded getting her a bottle.
"Sorry about that. If I made you uncomfortable or anything." I said and she nodded.
"Did you get full custody of Papi yet?" She asked and I sighed.
"I have court next week." I said and she nodded.
"Oh okay your going to get him. Don't worry about it." I kissed her forehead and put both of our plates on the table.
"So do you want kids?" I asked her as she ate and she nearly choked on her food.
Nicki
"Of course I want children. I was pregnant till I lost the baby a couple days ago." I said and a tear escaped from my eye.
"He did it?" Meek asked and I nodded.
"Yes. Then when I told him he got upset and blamed it on me and beat me." I said and Meek sighed and walked over to me and hugged me.
"Don't cry baby it's alright." Meek said calming me down rubbing my shoulders.
"He was so horrible to me. He killed my baby and had no problem beating me." I cried and the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it. You just finish breakfast." He said going to the door.
"Aye Nicki! Get yo dumb ass out here! You leaving!" I heard Jamal's voice and I got scared and ran upstairs weeping.
"Man get the fuck out!" Meek yelled and I heard the door slam. Then I heard footsteps running up the stairs and I was in the bed shaking.
"Baby don't cry I got you." He said and hugged me tight as he rubbed my back and he held me when my body jerked up and down.
"Im not letting you go." He said.
