"Come on Emmanuel. I'm ready for you," she said tying her hair up.

"I don't want to!" I yelled.

She always forced herself on me and I wasn't ready for all of that yet. I was nine and every time we did it, I would cry.

She slapped me which caused me to jerk back.

One of these days I was going to push her down these stairs.

I jumped up and blew. I was sweating bullets. I know I messed up but these dreams gotta stop.

I walked into the bathroom to wipe off this sweat and to cool down. After that I went into the kitchen and got some water.

I tip-toed to Arihah's room to see her knocked out and NiLeigh knocked out on her little bed.

I tapped Arihah and she instantly woke up.

"Hm?"

"I need to talk to you. Move over." I said getting into the bed.

"About what?"

"You remember when I told you I understood what you was going through?" I asked her referring to her situation.

"Yeah."

"I was violated from the age of six to thirteen. Unlike your situation shorty was sick in the head. She loved doing it."

"Are you serious? Did you tell anyone?"

"You," I looked at her.

"Where is she?"

"I killed her," I mumbled.

She rose up and looked at me.

"Rih don't look at me like that. I swear I'm not like that. It was self defense, please don't look at me like that. I didn't even mean to kill her I just lost my cool." I was frustrated and at this point I couldn't even help the tears that were falling.

"How did you kill her? Who was she to you?" She spoke lowly.

"My dad's girlfriend. I lived with her after he died. But uh–,"

"Take your time."

"Emmanuel! Come here."

I groaned. I walked into her room to see her laying down.

"Guess what? I think I'm pregnant," she grinned.

"Why you smiling for? You're really sick."

She got up and walked over to me and slapped me. "You're so disrespectful!"

"You will take care of this child! Or I'll hurt you." she looked crazy.

"I ain't doing nothing."
