Kianna POV
I just finished a photo shoot in Uptown Atlanta since I live all the way down in Buckhead. I went back to my dressing room and stripped off the black dress they had prepared for me and put it back on the hanger. I placed it on the rack with the other dresses I had to try on. Then, I threw on my casual clothes I came here with and took down my make up. I braided my hair into 2 braids, one on the left and one on the right. After I was done with all that I grabbed my keys & phone, shut the door, and walked to the exit after saying bye to everybody. I walked to my car and began to drive home.

Once I reached my house, I seen an unfamiliar car parked on the driveway. The gates automatically opened and I slowly drove next to the car that was parked. I got out and walked towards the windows to the dining room to see if anyone was in there. But I had no luck 😔. I looked through the glass to the front door and saw nobody there. So I took out my house key and opened the door making the alarm say the words 'front door open'.

"Hello?!" I semi yelled since my house had echoes. "I'm in the kitchen." The person said. I walked towards the kitchen and seen someone I haven't seen since I was 12 😭. "Savannah??" I asked. "The one & only." She smiled. I ran over to her and squeezed her as tight as I could. "Okay! Damn! I missed you too!" She laughed. "Sorry.. I just missed you a whole lot." I said. "You don't have any other friends to hang out with? Well except for Shaniyah😒." She said with an attitude.

She knows about Shaniyah & I's "problem" about how I let her abuse me. Only problem is I told her she stopped.. 7 years ago. Ever since then she's had a bad feeling about her. I try to tell her not to worry about it but she doesn't listen. And I know it'll break her innocent heart if I tell her that I lied and that she never stopped till this day. I just like seeing people happy.. that's all. I was raised by my parents not to hold grudges, fight for no reason, be racist, etc. but unfortunately they died on the night of my 15th birthday 😪😪. Ever since then I've been going through depression and went to the hospital a few times for it 😕. But I don't let it get to me.

"KIANNA!" Savannah yelled as I jumped out of my thoughts. "Oh! My bad.. What did you say?" I said. "I said you don't have any other friends to hang out with other than Shaniyah?" She repeated. "No. That's why I missed you so much.." I said lowly. "Awe 😔😔. Well I can move in with you if you want." She said. "That'll be nice." I said cheesing. "Alright. I'm here for college so I'm staying for only 4 years. I'll bring all my boxes here instead of my cousins apartment then." She said walking to the door. "Okay." I said. Once she left, I got me a bag of Hot Cheetos and a Capri Sun and sat in the living room watching SpongeBob ☺️.

A couple minutes later ..
I was just getting comfortable when the doorbell rang. I sat down my chips and went over to the door to open it. It was Shaniyah.

"Oh.. Hey Niyah." I smiled. "Hey.. Um who was that driving out of the driveway?" She asked. "Oh.. It was Savannah. Remember her?" I told her. "Oh yeah.. I remember. Why was she over here?" She said welcoming herself into the house. "She's just staying here for a while until she graduates from college." I said. "So she's staying for 4 years??" She said facing me. "Yeah. I mean.. that's what she said." I said moving back away from her. "Kick her out." She said with a stern voice. "What? 😐. Shaniyah I can't just kick her out like that. She's already bringing her boxes in here from her cousins house. How do you think she would feel if I had to tell her to get out just so she could turn around and bring her stuff BACK to her cousins apartment." I confronted her.

Next thing I knew, I felt a hard punch on my nose.

"Listen to me, won't you? 😌. Your my bestfriend mkay? And our friendship won't be able to stay solid if she's gonna be living in the same house as you for 4 years. Understand?" She said standing over me since I fell when she punched me. "But Shaniyah--" she cut me off by stomping on my left leg repeatedly.

"You know what? Fine! Let her stay here in this sorry house 😤. But when she decides to go to someone else and leaves you all alone by yourself like how you were before, don't come crying to me." She said leaving me by myself on the floor after slamming the door.

I limped over to the couch, careful not to cause more pain to my leg, and laid down slowly going to sleep 😴.
