"I'll explain when I get there.... I'll explain when I get there..."
The words kept ringing throughout my mind as we made our way back to the dorm unit.
"If I tell you...you must promise me to keep it to yourself..." She said quietly while stepping onto the elevator.
"Of course I promise Ma..." I said looking at her with probably the utmost concern and a hint confusion on my face.
Damn I just met her and I'm starting to care more than ever...

The elevator dinged and the doors opened. I cautiously looked around before stepping out.
Ky probably thinks I gotta screw loose or some shit but he don't know my situation... Not yet anyways.
I walked to my dorm with his footsteps behind me making me jump a little. My senses heighten when untrustworthy muhfuckas come around.
I put my key in the door and walked in. Ky closed the door behind me and sat on my bed.
"So is you gone tell me what's going on?..." He said in a calm manner trying not to upset me.
I swallowed gathering my thoughts.
"They.... They shot my brother.." I stopped talking as a tear slid down my cheek.
"Comere Ma.." Ky said getting up embracing me in a warm hug. Normally I would resist but I was vulnerable and he was exactly what I needed at that moment.
I placed my head in his chest and cried and felt my self shaking from my undiagnosed panic attack.
"He died in my arms..." I said with my shaky voice.
"His name was Truce he was only 16 he didn't deserve that shit man!" I pulled away from Kylan with all my mixed emotions.

I was feeling sad,mad,and hurt. I ran my hands over my face then through my hair.
I walked back over to Ky who was now sitting down on my bed (again...) And sat down next to him.
I stared off, "The last thing he said to me was 'Stop concentrating on society... You gotta make it' That's why I been on my grind that's why I been so hard on myself..."
I paused for minute realizing the real problem.
"....they said that they would be back for me..."
I instantly broke down in tears. "No, no, no, no!" I said losing control of my breathing.
Ky wrapped his arm around me and out of impulse I put my head on his shoulder.
"Mamas it's gonna be ok.." He said kissing the top of my head and rubbing my shoulder.
"Look fuck my classes I wanna make sure your safe..." He said it like he really cared about me...considering the fact that we almost basically just met.

"You can stay at my place...I'll protect you...Shit we can take online classes everything will be just fine." I said smiling at Nadi hoping to receive one back.
"Really? You sure?" Her face somewhat lit up. Better than a smile to be honest.
"Yea ma here..." I paused to get up.
"Pack your stuff imma go talk to the teachers to get this shit on the road." I said in a funny voice trying to make her laugh.
She chuckled, "Ky you're so silly."
I smiled and walked out the door.
"...Damn nigga you a big ass softy you know that?" I said to myself... I hope this goes well...
