Should I? [S4S Short Story]

Samirah

She didn't answer...

"Ok, Sammy don't worry. Just ask in the morning." I whispered to myself.

I laid down with ease and stared at the wall covered by lights through my window. I just went into deep thought.

I know he's after me, especially now that I'm carrying his child. I don't understand why me? Am I that vulnerable to every damn thing? What about me drives him to keep chasing after me and causing me a great amount of agony?

His dumbass suppose to be in jail anyway.

Now Jayla on some trippy shit. I know I had to have been dreaming.

She is my cousin.

My fucking cousin.

What if she does it again, but worse? She could have raped me.

I just wonder what got into her. She wasn't herself at all. She was something much different. I think I should be scared, but I'm tired of running. I need to say something to her.

I sat up and began to question myself whether I should really go in her room.

I pushed the thought out of my mind and got out of bed. I shivered as my feet touched the cold floor.

I ignored the feeling and proceeded to unlock my door and turn into the hallway. I reached her door and lightly knocked on it hoping she wasn't sleeping just yet.

I heard some weird groaning and moaning going on. I didn't wanna be nosey, but I didn't wanna be held accountable for something happening to her either.

Fuck her!

"Shut up!" I mumbled to myself. I leaned my head and hesitantly put my ear against the door.

Whoever or whatever is still moaning and groaning,"Sam?" Jayla asked as the door popped open causing me to fall forward a little.

Way to go Samirah...

luckily I caught my balance. This air between us was thick and became awkward.

"Umm...what are you doing?" She inspected the door then my body. "Nothing..." I nodded, "...but I need to ask you something."

She raised her eyebrow but didn't refuse my question.

"Come in nigga, you more than welcome. Sit on the bed, I know your feet and your back probably hurt from today."

Yea, no shit.

I walked in and she closed and locked the door roughly causing me to flinch a little. Hopefully she didn't notice.

"Ok.." She shrugged her shoulders. "What you wanna talk about?" She sat next to me.

I was still shooken up about what she did and I couldn't even sit next to her, let alone be in the same room.

But I had to get answers...

"D-Do you have some type of disorder or some kind of medicine you take?" I turned my body towards hers.

She just stared at me as if I didn't just ask her a question.

"Hello..Jayla?" I waved my hand in her face. She still didn't budge. She just kept looking at me with those eyes of hers and her face was very unreadable.

"Ok..so Umm..." I mumbled putting my foot on the floor to get up. "I'm just gonna go back to bed..nevermind that I as-"

"Why do you wanna know?" She growled as she took a deadly grip onto my hand.
