Every now and then I get a little crazy that's not the way it's supposed to be sometimes my vision is a little hazy I can't tell who I should trust or just who I let trust me   

TLC ~ 1992 

Aaliyah P.O.V 

January, 7th 1993

I stand at the bus stop early Saturday morning. I'm happy this week is over it has been so weird Keith and I  barely talked to each other all week, and Luke had kinda been treating me differently. Every time he see's me he gives me a kiss and calls me baby girl but it doesn't feel as genuine anymore, and I honestly don't know what we are, we hang out and kiss and he calls me his baby but he never asked me to be his girlfriend. 

It's so cold out here and all I have is this thin ass jacket. I hug my body trying to keep myself warm as I waited for the bus. A boy walks over and stands next to me at the stop. I look over at him and immediately recognize him. He was the guy from the ice cream shop but he didn't look the same. I remember him being all cheerful and happy but he looks so sad and out it right now he had bags under his eyes as if he hadn't gotten sleep in days. 

"Hey I remember you from Richards Ice cream shop how are you?" I say to him with a sweet tone, he slowly looks up at me he gives me a fake little smile and looks back down at the ground. I hate seeing people down because I know how it feels. 

"Are you okay? You seem kinda down," I ask him and he doesn't respond he just looks at me. It was awkward but after a minute he speaks. "I'm just kinda having a rough day,"Hey sighs. 

"Oh, I understand are you headed to work?"I question and he shakes his head telling me no. 

"I'm going to go see my little sister,"He explains. 

"Wow that's kinda ironic I'm going to see my sister as well, she's at a foster center at the moment," I tell him and his eyes widen a little. 

"So is my sister, "He says his tone is low. 

We just look at each other for a second both of us lost for words. 

"Why is your sister there, if I may ask,"The boy questions and I get a little sad thinking about it. 

"Family issues,"I say simply coming up the situation. 

"Same here."He says with the same Simple tone. 

"I'm Aaliyah,"I say after realizing that I never got his name. 

"I'm Algee."He greets back .

Thats such a unique name. 

Soon Algee and I are in deep conversation talking about our sisters and how much we miss them. When the bus comes we sit next to each other and talk the entire way there. Algee tells me his sisters name is ruby, She's seven years old. He tells me that she's an amazing singer and that she wants to become a pop singer one day. He says she sings Whitney Houston and tries to act just like her. I tell him about how smart Mya is for her age and how she already does math, and reads so well. We go on and on bragging about our siblings laughing and smiling as we think about them. Once we get to the center we walk in together.  We have to sign a sheet of paper and sit and wait for them to go and get our sisters. 

I almost cry when I see my sweet baby sister walking over to me she had pretty little pony tails in her hair with yellow bows on the end. She was wearing a little yellow sundress with a jacket to match it and yellow and white sandals. She looked so happy and cheerful, she looked healthy and beautiful. Beside her was a girl about the same height as her they are dressed identically the only difference being the little girl's clothes were pink. Mya runs over to me squeezing me tight and the other little girl runs to Algee doing the same thing. 

I squeeze my baby so tight and kiss her small cheeks. She smelled like candy and baby lotion. 

"I miss you so much, "Mya says as her small arms hug me back. 

"This is my bestiest friend Ruby, "Mya exclaims as she points at Algee's little sister. I smile as I look at the two girls so cheerful, their smiles so big and beautiful. 

"See Al this is my bestiest friend Mya,"She smiles widely as both girls high five each other. 

"What have you been up to Mya?"I ask her and she smiles.

"Ruby and I like to paint and draw, and color and we have lots and lots of toys,"Mya exlaims. 

Both girls tell us all the things that they do together, it made my heart feel so good to see that Mya is safe and has a friend. When she was staying at home she didn't have any friends she was always by herself or with me. 

Algee and I stay with our sisters until visiting hours are over. Leaving mad me sad because I miss my baby so much but for now, the place that she is at is a safe place.
