We're back and we're better. kyla goins deals with more drama and so much more pain. The lovely girls start their senior year with their amazing friends by their side. No family is perfect. They may have problems but together they feel like they can...
1 week later Kyla pov Naomi is now out of the hospital but she still doesn't remember much besides her parents. My grandma is coming to drop off some of my mother stuff. "I don't know why I'm here but-" Juliya started to say but I cut her off. I invited her over in case I needed a shoulder to cry on. "I need you for support ". I responded and smiled at her. There was a sudden knock on the door and I quickly answered it revealing my beautiful grandma Melody. "Hey grandma" I said and hugged her. "Hey grandma" Juliya mimicked my voice. "Hey babies " She responded smiling. "I missed you so much". I kissed her on the cheek and then I pulled away from her warm embrace. "I missed you more, Ky". She smiled so big at me. We sat on the couch and I helped her with her things. I glanced at each journal and photo album. "Wow, I see my mom was a busy teen". I said and made my grandma laugh. "She did attend a lot of parties and she always wrote about them". My grandma said and then she sighed. "How long can you sit with me?" I asked my grandma. "Not that long because I have to go back to the house and feed those boys". My grandma held my hand. "Oh, the thugs and the savages ". I rolled my eyes. My grandma care too much about other kids life. I know we have to save these young black men but they need to do their part too.
"You know I love you ". My grandma kissed my cheek before opening a photo album. "Ahh, that's me and my mommy ". I pointed at a picture of me and my mom at the beach. "You was only 1 years old ". My grandma smiled at me. "I changed a lot". I laughed with Juliya. "Those chubby cheeks and those fat thighs ". Juliya pinched my cheeks.

"I was soooo cute". I looked at the picture of me walking.
"You wouldn't let anybody touch you ". My grandma said.
"Hey, she was the queen ". Juliya said and we laughed.
"I looked so different when I was 1".I flipped the page and stopped at the picture of me in somebody arms.
"Oh, that's Derek ". My grandma said and hummed a tune .
"Derek?" I asked.
" One of your mom friends". My grandma looked at his pictures a few more minutes and then attempted to turn the page.
"Nah, who is that?" I asked my grandma again.
"Derek Smith is his name and like I said he is one of your mom friends ". My grandma rolled her eyes before turning the page.
"Why is he holding her like that and why does Kyla shirt say I love my daddy and-" Juliya started to say more but I cut her off.
"His shirt says I love my daughter and it has a picture of us on it". I looked up from the picture and at my grandma. I was trying to figure out who the fuck is this man.
"I don't know, Kyla". My grandma shook her head.
"You were there though so I know you know something!" I raised my voice a little.
"I don't know but I still see him sometimes ". My grandma crossed her arms.
"I want to ask him questions ". I said and looked at Juliya. Juliya nodded her head. My grandma nodded her head before grabbing her stuff and leaving.
Juliya and I looked through my mom old journals for important information such as numbers and addresses. We found the man Derek Smith number and called to see if that is still his number.
"Hello, who am I speaking to?" The man asked. "Kyla Goins". I responded. "Kyla, I never thought I would hear that name again ". He said. "Derek Smith?" I asked him. "Yes, how are you baby girl?" He asked me. "Good so how do you know me?" I asked him. "Every father knows his daughter". I glanced at Juliya when he said that. "Yeah, we have to meet ". I said. Derek cleared his throat and then I received a message from him giving me an address to meet him at. "See you soon, Kyla". He said and then he hung up. ~.~.~.~.~.•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~• I sat down at the picnic table with Juliya. Derek told me to meet him at this park. I feel like I've been here before. Juliya looked around the park and she looked nervous. "You good, sis?" I asked her. "Yeah". She said and I knew she was lying.
This brown skin boy with so many tattoos sat in front of me. "Hey, you don't remember me do you?" The boy asked me. "No, I'm sorry " I said and Juliya nudged me. "He is cute" she whispered and smiled. "My name is Matt and we used to play at this park every single day". He said and then a man joined us at the picnic table. "Are you Derek smith?" I asked the man.
The man smiled before saying " Yes, and you must be Kyla ". "Yes so I have a few questions " I said. Juliya cleared her throat before saying "she is not your daughter ". Derek smile faded and he looked straight at me. "What do you mean?" He asked Juliya. "Her daddy name is Julian Goins and he is a rapper" Juliya said. "I was there when you was born and I watched you take your first steps " Derek said. "So my mom told you that you were my father and you just believed her " I said in disbelief. "Hey, everyone thought you looked like me so-" Derek started to say but I cut him off. "I know you love me and I know you care but where were you when I needed real love" I said.
"I was in a foster home and I could've just lived with you daddy " I said and then I realized I just called him daddy and felt bad.
"People told me you were dead" Derek said.
"You didn't even look for me like a real dad does!" I snapped on him and shook my head.
"You're with your real dad and you don't need me-" Derek was cut off by Matt.
"My dad has a point but dad I think I should just talk to her" Matt said before grabbing my hands and leading me to the swings.
"What do you remember right now ?" Derek asked me.
I began to have a flashback to the night we were playing at the park and eating strawberries. "The crazy berry night ". I smiled at the memory of us walking around the park with nothing but strawberries in our mouths.
"That was a good night ". Derek smiled at me.
We were only 4 years old and now we're 17 years old. We both remember that day as if it was yesterday. I can't imagine how he feel right now. I was his bestfriend and now we're separated.
"We can do it over". I looked him in his eyes and smiled. "I love you so much, Matt".
Juliya called my name from a distance and then tapped her watch. "We gotta go".
Matt and I exchanged numbers before hugging and then walking away from each other.
