Na-Kay-La
Ran away with a man I thought I loved. Someone I would never would have thought would lay a finger on me. Someone I thought I would be with forever and ever to love and hold me.
That was all a lie... Now my life is hell. How am I'm going...

Nakayla Point of View
I took a deep breath and began to tell him how I became homeless. I started off from how I first ran away with my deceased husband Jared and how we lived together and he didn't let me have a job and not able to leave the house and the regular beatings he gave me, and along the way I found out my parents both passed away, to when he got shot up by the police. And then I told him about Jared debts that he didn't pay so I had to sale the house and car and all my belongings. And that I was the only child so I have no other family to go ask for help.
I didn't realize I was crying until he reached over me in the glove department and pulled out some napkins. I took them as he handed them to me and let me cry.
After I got myself together, I stayed quiet not knowing what to say next. It was a comfortable silence though and I liked it.
"Nakayla, I can't say I know what you going through because I don't, but I can say you one strong motherfucker." He said making me chuckle. "You been through a lot and if it was any other person in your shoe they would of off themselves. Just keep ya head up, and yo problems will get resolved."
I nodded my head and thanked him for the encouraging words.
"Anytime Nakayla." He started the car up. "Here he handed me a blind fold.
I put it on as he pulled off.
'I wonder why he don't want anyone to know where he lives?' I thought to myself as I rested my head up against the seat.
About twenty minutes later I could tell we made it to his house because the car slowed down and stop.
"Come on." I heard him get out the car.
I took off the blind fold exiting the car myself following after Boss or Jay what ever he want me to call him.
"I was going to get you a hotel but majority of the hotels are booked because of New Years is today. So you can stay here until I can find you a place to stay."
"Thanks."
"No problem, this the room you gonna be staying in." He opened the door to the room door.
There was a queen size bed in the middle of the room a big flat screen that hung on the wall infront of the bed and a big dresser. There was a connected bathroom and a walk in closet.
"Your bag of stuff is still down stairs, so I'll go get it for you he walked back out.
Jace Point of View
I made my way back downstairs to get her bag of things.
I spotted it next to the couch on the floor. I picked it up as something fell out of it. Picking it up to see it was a gold locket necklace. I opened the locked and a small folded piece of paper fell out of it. Picking it up seeing it was a note. I decided not to read it and justed looked at the locket. It was a picture of a woman and man with a little girl infront of them. I'm guessing it was her and her parents seeing that this picture was a little old. And on the other side it was just a picture of her. I put the locket back in the bag along with the paper, making my way back up stairs.
I got back upstairs to see that Nakayla was spread across the bed sleep. Not wanting to wake her I placed the bag besides the bed. Walking out the room closing the room door going to my room.
==============================
I just got out the shower and now getting ready to lay down when my phone started to vibrate.
Looking at my phone seeing a picture of my little sister across the screen.
"Hey little brat. What's up?" I answered my phone.
"Hey punk. I was just calling to tell you imma be home for spring break." She got excited.
My little sister is a 20 and a freshmen in college. Her name is Milo (Me-low) Nicole Cruz and she is annoying as fuck at times. But aren't all siblings? But I love her to death, I will go to war behind her. She is my only family I got left, I'll be damned if something happen to her, God forbid.
"Ight coo. Just call me the day before so I know when to pick you up from the airport." I told her.
"Ok, will do. But I got to go big bro, I love you."
"I love you to Milo." I hung up the phone.
I put my phone on the charger and was about to lay down when I heard a loud screeching scream.
Running out of my room and into the room Nakayla was in to see her shivering. I ran to her placing her in my arms like a mother would her child.
Nakayla squirmed in my arms trying to push me away.
"Nakayla wake up it's just a dream." I tried waking her up.
She stopped pushing me away opening her eyes. She notice it was me and relaxed some.
"I'm sorry." She being to cry.
As I held her I could tell her heart was racing from the way her body was still shaking. Im tired as hell and want to go to sleep but I also dont want to leave her in here by herself.
Before I could even think twice on what I was about to do I picked Nakayla up bridal style taking her to my room.
"Where we going?" She questioned.
"My room." I answered simply.
I Laid her on my bed then getting in next to her. No words was exchanged as a laid on my back with my hands behind my head and she was laying with her back to me curled into a ball. I laid there with my eyes closed but I couldn't fall asleep.
I heard Nakayla light snores. She rolled over laying her head on my chest. I stiffen up at first but relaxed. I wrapped my hand around her waist pulling her warm body closer to mines. Her body just felt to right up against mines.
Closing my eyes once more I drifted off into a slumber.
