Hood Love 3: Chapter 5

Chapter 5 |

Tykia ~

The funeral was truly beautiful. Momma talked about Lilly and I could tell she was hurt. She was crying her eyes out at the burial, and I was too. I guess it was then when we realized that she was really gone.

"Momma, we gone make it through this. We are, okay?" I said when we were finally home.

"A mother should never have to bury her child! Never! Lawd, I'm gone go rest, baby." She said and walked to the guest room she was staying in.

I told her that she needed to stay with us until she was feeling better. Oh, and I had moved in with Zay again.

I went into my room and removed my black dress. I laid in bed and cried. When I heard footsteps walk into the room, I tried to wipe my tears.

"Babe? Bae, are you crying? You cool?!" Zay said and hopped into bed with me. He held me in his arms and I felt so safe.

"I'm just overwhelmed, Zaquan. My sister is gone!" I said.

"Bae, she's in a better place now. Trust me."

I nodded. "Just like your grandma,"

He nodded.

We stared into each others eyes and it seemed like I could stare into those light brown eyes all day.

Cali ~

David, my cousin, came into the room.

"Okay, so we got everything we need. I just need to make one last stop." David said.

"What do you need now, David?!" I asked.

"Tykia. I gotta get her. I wanna be with her."

I smiled. "If you getting her, you think you could get Zharia too? I think I deserve to be called mommy and not her!"

"Why? You ain't no good mother. You do remember what happened to Gisselle?"

Gisselle, my first child. She died, because of me. I loved her with everything and when she died, I guess I kinda lost my mind. I wasn't sane for awhile but I'm okay now. I miss her more than everything everyday so that's why I want Zharia. She reminds me of my daughter, Gisselle.

"Ay, did you hear me?"

I jumped up and slapped his face. "Don't you dare brung up Gisselle. You know that that hurts me. Don't bring that shit up again, nigga!"

He sighed and left. I guess to go get Tykia and Zharia.

Tykia~

We spent the majority of the night holding each other and looking into each others eyes. We finally fell asleep. I felt better when I was in Zay's arms. I felt safer in Zay's arms.

I was woken by a knock on the door. I guess only I heard it, though. I stretched quickly and made my way to the door quietly. I didn't wanna wake Zharia, my mother, or Zay. I opened the door and David stood there.

"David, it's 11:00 o' clock at night! What do you want?" I whispered.

"I want you, Kia." He said.

I sighed and simply scratched my head. I then tried closing the door in his face, but he wouldn't let me. I struggled with trying to close the door until he finally pushed the door completely open.

"Stop tryin ' to fight it, Kia. I know you want me."

I giggled. "Nah, I'm actually good without you."

I tried again to close the door but this time he grabbed my arm and pulled me out the door, so that we were standing outside. I tried to scream, but before a scream could escape my mouth, everything went black.

Zay ~

When I woke up, no one was in the bed with me. I guess Kia went to cook or something.

I got up, took a quick shower, and threw on a white wife beater and gym shorts. Today, I was cooling with my family.

I walked to the kitchen, still didn't see Kia. Where did this girl go? I decided to see if she was with Zharia. I went to Zharia's room and still no Kia, just a sleeping Zharia.

~

After searching the whole house, I still didn't find Kia. Maybe she went to the store. I grabbed my phone and called her.

I could hear her cellphone ringing so I guessed she left her phone. I was starting to get worried.

I knocked on her mothers door.

"Come in." I heard her say.

I walked in and saw her on her knees praying.

"Sorry to interrupt you, but have you seen Kia?" I asked.

"No, she probably went to the store, baby. Don't worry."

I nodded and left her room. I tried not to worry but hours passed and she still wasn't home. This wasn't like Kia.
