Rhiannon

Rhiannon: Chapter 5

TREY'S VIEW

'RHIANNON'S WHAT?' I shouted and Tamara jumped,

'Arh, this is all my fault.' I said and sat down, she sat next to me and put her arm around my shoulders.

'Trey, its nobody's fault especially not yours.'

'But if i didn't-'

'Don't worry about it, Cameron's still pissed off though you really need to see about counselling for that temper of yours, its getting out of hand.'

'I know, trust me... i know,' I sighed and rested my head in my hands. How fucked up was this? Nothing seemed to be going right, I knew Rhi would take the news badly but I never expected this to happen. She had broken a few ribs as well as her arm and she had a fractured skull. I promised Melissa that I would take care of her and then this happens! Tamara and I had been in the hospital for the past 6 hours doing nothing but waiting.

'Trey, you need to go home...get some sleep.'

'No, I can't leave her here.' I said, Tamara sighed and helped me stand up. We left the hospital and she drove us back to my house. We both got out and went inside and sat down in the front room, it was so silent now that Rhi wasn't around. I had no one to argue with or no one to tell to turn their music down.

'She'll be fine Trey,'

'We don't know that, my mum said that after she got rid of her breast cancer but she's not fine now is she? You said that after Melissa got stabbed but is she here? No! So don't fucking say that.' She came and sat next to me and turned my face to look at her.

'Have faith Trey, you need to believe she'll get better and stay strong.'

'I can't man...everything I love is being taken away from me.' And something I didn't think would happen did, tears started rolling down my cheeks. Tamara hugged me and I felt her tear drop onto my shoulder. I moved away and she wiped my face and hers.

'Arr...that was gay.' I said and she started laughing.

'No it wasn't, you need to let your emotions out sometimes. And you know what, all of what you've been holding in is whats causing you to get so angry.'

'I guess...thanks Tam.' She smiled and I kissed her on her cheek.

'Melissa would be proud of you Trey,' I looked towards the floor and shook my head. I only had the image of Melissa before she'd died because I never got to see her body, to think of it no-one did the police told us she'd been stabbed and we never identified the body or anything.

'No I doubt she would, I fucked up both mine and Rhi's life, I made her hate me.'

'Its not your fault! Stop blaming yourself for something that isn't your fault!' I nodded and she gave me one last hug before leaving.

'Sorry I'll pass by tomorrow to go and visit Rhi but this baby is hungry.' I laughed and closed the front door behind her, I went straight upstairs and lit a spliff. Yeah, it wasn't the best idea but it calmed me down and made me feel at ease. My phone started ringing and I looked and saw Vanessa's name on the screen. I kissed my teeth and threw the waste out of the window before I answered,

'Hello?'

'Trey...I heard what happened,' She said.

'Yeah so why do you feel the need to call me at this time?'

'I'm just checking how you are I mean... I do know how you can be,'

'Vanessa what the fuck do you want?'

'What makes you think I want something?'

'Because I just know you, what is it man?'

'I just needed a bit of money to buy suttin' that's all.'
