Homecoming Pt. 1

Khalil 47

I sat across from my little brother feeling like complete shyt, Devin had his leg propped up on the table with an ice pack no matter how many times I offered to take him to the hospital he vehemently refused saying he was fine. I still felt bad though, but what was he doing here not that I minded.

"At least it wasn't my head, that would've been bad." Devin said laughing.

"Yeah it would've..... but what are you doing here Dev?" I asked.

"I...... I didn't have anywhere else to go. When I got home from school everything was going smoothly, until dinner when Staci showed up my parents had invited her over along with a social worker who was trying to 'cure me'. I tried to sit through the whole dinner without going off but when my pops said it was my fault he had a stroke I couldn't take it anymore so I left, and walked here......" Devin said.

"WAIT YOU WALKED DEVIN THAT'S LIKE 15 MILES, WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL ME OR NICO?" I asked pissed.

"Because I was so mad when I walked out I left everything there, my phone, wallet, clothes, everything except my keys. Besides I knew you were in San Antonio and Nico was busy and walking gave me plenty of time to calm down. But I didn't walk the whole way, I caught a bus or two and got as close to your house as possible and walked the rest of the way. I'm glad I had that emergency money Enzo gave me or I'd probably still be walking. I knew I wasn't going to last long there but it's only been a few days." Devin said wincing a little.

"Dev I'm taking you home." Devin looked shocked. "Not to stay but you need to grab all your stuff, especially your phone we'll need the recording if we're going to get the court ordered paternity test and then I'm taking you to the hospital." I said going to grabbed my keys. Devin stood up and almost fell over but I caught him. "You need me to help you?" I asked scared that I f***k his leg up permanently.

"Nah I got it." Devin said limping. We got in the car and I drove him home. We pulled up in front of his house and I could tell he was nervous.

"You want me to go in with you?" I asked, Devin nodded his head and we got out the and walked slowly up to the house. When we got to the porch Devin hesitated with his keys in his hand, Devin was about to unlock the door when I stopped him.

"Khalil what are you doing." Devin said looking at me. I put my finger to my mouth and pointed to my ear, telling him to stop talking and listen.

"I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY YOU CALLED THIS F***T TO MY HOUSE PEARL! YOUR THE REASON DEVIN IS GAY NOW, YOU AND THAT DAMN KHALIL! " Devin's foster dad yelled.

"F***K YOU, YOU OLD BASTARD. THE ONLY REASON I'M HERE IS BECAUSE SHE CALLED ME AND TOLD ME DEVIN WAS MISSING, I'M NOT HERE FOR YOU I'M HERE FOR HIM!" Nico yelled. Me and Devin looked at each other confused.

"I SAY KICK HIS ASS OUT, IT'S YOUR FAULT MY CHILD IS GOING TO GROW UP WITH A F***T FOR A DADDY! YOU'VE BEEN POISONING HIS MIND EVER SINCE YOU MEET HIM! NOW QUIT PLAYING AND TELL US WHERE DEVIN IS!" Staci yelled. I guess Devin couldn't take it anymore he unlocked the door and went inside, with me right behind him. We walked in and the scene was extremely tense, on one side of the room was Devin's foster dad and Staci and on the other side was Nico standing tall, Devin's foster mom was standing in the middle I guess trying to play peacemaker.

"Oh thank you Jesus, Devin we were so worried about you." His foster mom said running over to him and hugging him, but Devin pulled away I could feel the anger coming off of him in waves.

"Devin...." Staci and Nico both said at the same time, then they both moved at the same time, they stopped and looked at each other.

"SO THAT'S WHERE YOU BEEN WITH THIS F***G?" His dad yelled.
