Keisha's P.o.v

I ended up spending the rest of the day in the nurses office for the safety of the other kids, and I don't want nasty rumors to spread. When I waited outside for Bryan, I noticed that there was a car infront of the school that looked like his car, but he wasn't inside of it. Whoa, that's type creepy.

I averted my eyes from staring before walking around the block to see if he was parked somewhere. After walking around the block 4 more times, satisfied that he's not here, I pulled out my phone and texted him, "I've been waiting here for you. Should I go home?" I hope that the car I saw up front wasn't his car because that would mean that I was holding him up this whole time, which I'm going to regret since I was out for quite some time.

I was about to walk back to the front of the building, but I was suddenly knocked to the ground from behind and hit my head on the pavement with a thump. I could feel something warm rolling down my face, but when I saw red marks on the floor, I realized that it was blood. I looked up and saw no one there. I groaned, not able to move before I was lifted up. I could feel the pressure on my face as I was being lifted by someone.

I slowly and weakly looked at the person and saw that it was a bandaged up Oliver. Then he said, "Sweet dreams," before knocking me out.

When I woke up, I was back at Bryan's apartment, lied across the couch. I squinted my eyes at the sudden pressure of light that attacked my eyes before I saw Bryan talking on the phone. I didn't move, instead I listened to what was going on. "Yeah, she's suffering and you're just being a bitch!...Okay!..-Alright, but tell me how I found her out cold on the pavement! Explain that to me!...You know what, fuck you and that Oliver nigga! I hope that you guys realize how wrong you are!" Then he cut the call before walking my way.

He kneeled low to my level looking into my eyes. "You'll be alright, mamas, alright?" I don't know why, but I couldn't answer back. Am I in shock? I tried to talk, but it came out in a quiver before tears started to follow. "I know...you're scared. I don't know exactly what happened, but I believe that it has something to do with this Oliver guy. You don't know how much I wanted to tell Jolene that he's the cause of all of this!...Well, I told her what happened, but she seemed not to care. Then she started to blabber on about how Oliver is still hurt and shit. Hey, did you get a good look at the person who did this to you?"

Instead of answering him, I started to shake and look into his eyes. He sighed and got up before moments later coming back with my pills. "Here, take it, mamas. You'll feel better." He tried to convince me, but then I started to vigorously shake my head no. Not the first time I told him I didn't want to take it, but it always ended with a tantrum, him grabbing me and calming me down, and then me eventually taking the pill. It was a daily process except I'm too weak to move and I'm scared so much, but I don't know what to be scared of at this moment.

"Alright, how ab—" He got up, trying to pick me up, but I pushed him away and jolted away from the couch. He tried to calm me down, but I ran past him and upstairs where he was chasing me and saying, "Wait, come back. You need to take your pi—" Before he could finish, I threw a basketball at him in full force, so basically I launched that shit at him, but he ducked it and started to run upstairs with me.

I ran into the room and grabbed objects on the dresser before throwing it at him as he reached the door. "Mamas, just calm down, shhh...sh...I know you're scared, bu—" He tried to say, but I cut him off by missing only inches from his face, throwing a glass frame at him. He gasped and ran to me before pushing me to the wall softly before hugging me tightly as I was trying to get away from his grasp. "G-get off! I..I'm not taking it! No! No!" I yelled before Oliver flashed into my mind. I started to violently move in his grasp because this kinda feels like the type of messed up shit that Oliver would do for his pleasure. "M-mamas! Calm...down!" He said, struggling to keep me in his grasp. "No! Get off me!" I yelled before giving up all together.

He didn't move from the position of holding me. I looked to the side of me and saw the pills and the water. I snuggled into Bryan's shirt before sobbing. I'm a crazy person! I'm mental and I need pills to be stable! I'll prove to them that I don't need it! I can function without it! I'll show them!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After I took the pills, Bryan and I just lied on our back on the bed, watching the ceiling. I'm trying to be relaxed and calm down, but I can still feel my hands shaking on my side. I peeked over at Bryan who was frowning, but at the same time looking relaxed.

"What happened?" I asked him after two minutes passed.

"I think that Oliver was the one that attacked you after school, but I'm not sure. Damn, I should've just killed him!" He said before taking a deep breath to control his anger. I didn't reply, instead I stared into his dark green eyes.

I wish that Bryan can just do something to make Oliver stop that doesn't involve him going to jail or telling anyone about what happened. Ugh, this is all hard. I turned to my side to officially face Bryan before coming closer to him and snuggling into his arms. I felt his arms of shield wrap around me softly. "Don't worry, mama. We'll figure something out. Together." He whispered into my ear before I closed my eyes.
