Isaiah was on his way over to my house now and I was kind of scared. I didn't know why though, I guess I was just scared of what he might think.
Me and Kyla were blasting music in my room so we couldn't hear if Izzy had knocked on the door.
We were in the middle of One Dance when my phone starting ringing.
Arianna: hello?
Isaiah: I'm outside
Arianna: okay I'm coming
We turned off the music and both went down stairs. I unlocked the door and gave Izzy a big hug when he came in.
"Woah there you're hugging me kinda tight"
"Opps sorry"
Me and Izzy talked for a little bit and I told him why I was upset earlier. I could tell that he didn't know what to think.
"Why would you think that I'm cheating on you"
"Not necessarily cheating but...idk she kept looking at you and then it seemed like you were being a little friendly with her"
"What? you want me to be rude and mean to her Ari?"
"No- just forget it never mind"
I walked away from him and went into the living room. I turned on the tv and my whole body went into shock.
Oh My Gosh.
"No no no... Kyla!! Omg hurry"
Kyla and Izzy came running into the room and Kyla immediately fell to her knees. Izzy stared at the tv with no emotion.

Kyla was crying on her knees trying to make out why everything was happening.
"Why has nobody called me? I- I should've went home..th- this is all m- my fault"
I walked to the Izzy and he was sitting with his head in his hands.
"We have to go to the hospital"
"I can't I have to meet with someone"
"Izzy are you serious! Braylon is on life support and your worried about meeting someone?!"
"I think I know who did this"
"What?"
"I have to go, watch after Kyla and make sure she's good, y'all go to the hospital and see what's going on with Braylon.
Izzy got his jacket and his keys and walked out the door.
I went and bent down next to Kyla and hugged her.
"It's gonna be okay, I promise"
"Nobody's even called me...my dads probably too drunk to even care about what happened to him"
"What about your other family members, Aunts? Uncles?"
"None of them live around here"

Me and Ky went to the hospital and walked to the front desk.
Kyla sat down in a waiting area crying her eyes out.
"Um excuse me can you tell me what room Braylon Johnson is in"
The old lady looked up at me and rolled her eyes.
"And who are you?"
"Uh Arianna Jones...his cousin"
"Police said he doesn't have any family members down here"
"I know, I came down here as quickly as possible and his sister is sitting over there"
"Where's his parents?"
"Look can you please just tell me what room he's in!"
The lady rolled her eyes once again and looked in the patients book.
