For the love of Heaven (ON HOLD)

5|Pain Killer

~September 15th 2016~

I woke up this morning not wanting to face the day. I just wanted to stay in my bed and live in my own fantasy world. In that world my daddy is still alive and we would do all the stuff we used to do, as much as I wanted to stay in my happy place I decided to get up and I regretted it! This whole day was a disaster. My period came on this morning and I ran out of pamperin, and I only had three pads left, it's been raining all day and Terrence left me at school again, so I had to walk home, in the rain with serve 1st day period cramps.

A tear streamed down my face thinking about today. I really needed to go to the store not only for personal supplies but for food too. Since my mom hasn't left her room much, we didn't really eat home cooked meals, so I have to cook majority of the time but the problem was that Terrence and my mom are the only ones with cars. My daddy had been saving up for a couple of months to by me my dream car for my 17th birthday but passed before he ever got the chance to finish saving and all the money that was saved went to either his funeral or his medical bills.

I just decided to deal with the pain and no food in the house, I didn't want to ask Terrence for his car because he acted like a little bitch when it came to his car.

I laid down and I held my cramping stomach. The pain started to get unbearable "Okay, I can't take this anymore."

I got up and went to Terrence's door to ask if I could borrow his car. I knocked on his door. "What?!"

"T can I borrow your car to go to the store real quick?" I asked through the door.

"I can't hear you! Open the door!"

I tried to twist the door knob, but it was locked. I sighed "The door is locked." I said get more frustrated by the second.

The door opened, by lucky. He looked at me with his red eyes like he wanted me to say something to him but I kept my eyes away from him. The room wreaked of weed and Hennessy and some dirty hoe was under the covers next to my brother on the bed her eyes were red as well and her hair was all over the place. She looked like she had been through a lot, or maybe a lot's been through her. I only shook my head because had my mom been in her right mind, she wouldn't let any of this go down. Especially knowing their history, both Terence and lucky got violent when intoxicated .

But that's a story for another day.

"Can I borrow your car to go to the store?" I asked holding my breath.

He wasn't drunk but a bit tipsy "Hell no Heaven! Get the f*ck out of my room!"

"Hey!" Terrence said before I walked out

"What?"

"What's for dinner?" He asked

I ignored him and walked out of his room. I know it seems like I just let them run all of me but I know better not to argue with Terrence when he is drunk.

I rolled around my bed in pain. The cramps started to become insufferable and I couldn't take it much longer.

My phone buzzed alerting me that I had a text that said 'hey'. I looked at the number, it was a number I was unfamiliar with. I unlocked my phone to see if I texted this number before and just didn't remember to save the number but, There's were no messages above it. I looked at the small message at appeared under every unknown number that texts you that read 'the sender is not in you contact list. Report junk'. My curiosity wanted to push the link but I decided against it and just replied

'who is this?'.

I stared at the number trying to see if I could remember until I seen the three dots appear, then I immediately pushed the home button, I didn't want whoever it was to think I was pressed to receive their message.

When the message came through I looked at the notification at the top of my screen the message said:

?: Omar

...I sat up, confused

Me: Omar from the dress store?

Omar: Yeah

Me: How did you get my #?

Omar: Your friend Kelly gave it to me.. I thought she told you already

Me: No she didn't tell me anything..

Omar: Oh.. well this is kinda awkward lol

Me: Yeah is there anything you need?

Omar: Yeah.. I wanted to ask if you needed a date to homecoming?

My jaw flew open and I wanted to smile

why would he want to go with me?

I thought

Me: why do you want to go with me?

Omar: tbh this may sound corny and cliché but when you walked into the store that day my eyes were glued on you and I knew I had to talk to you.

I was confused. Very confused. Omar wanted to talk to me? Omar's fine ass wanted to talk to me? This had to be a joke that's the only way this would make sense.

Me: this has to be a joke, right?😩

Omar: no not at all😕

My inside voice screamed to the top of its lungs in joy but I was still a bit skeptical.

Me: I don't believe that 😑

Omar: alright, let me prove it to you

Me: that's really not necessary 😒

Omar: just let me🙄

Me: hmm🤔

Omar: come onnn😩😩😩

Me: ok but only because you made the effort

Omar: lol ok.. I'll see you Saturday? You still buying that dress right?

Me: yeah. Did Kelly tell you that too?

Omar: yeah 😂

Me: 🙄she can never shut up lol

Omar: be grateful she's a great friend..

Me: I know🙄🙄 I'm the lucky one 😂

Omar: yeah😂 I'll text you later tho if I don't get back to work my mom will kick my a**

Me:😂😂😂ok bye bye!

Though it was a short conversation, I had butterflies in my belly, but I still try to keep it together, especially with all the questions in  my mind.

What does he want from me?

And why the hell did Kelly give home my number?
