The Thick Girl:Happily Ever After? Book 4

Chapter 22

Emily

It's been 3 months and me and and Jamal are kind of a thing. We're not official but we're something. We haven't had sex, I am very tempted to though. He's not pushing it either. He never tried anything more than a peck on the lips. He might be the one it's too early to tell though.

While I was in my office the bell went off saying somebody opened the door. I got up then walked to the stairs. I heard crying. It sounds like Jayden and somebody else. "Jayden?", I called at the top of the stairs. He walked to the stairs covered in eggs, beat up and bleeding with Jamar behind him looking the same way. "What happened?", I asked walking down the stairs.

"They jumped us and egged us.", Jamar said crying. I took them to the bathroom and cleaned them up as they told me what happened. "We was walking down the street holding hands then a car pulled up beside us.".

"They started throwin' eggs at us and callin' us fags and stuff.", Jayden said.

"When we talked back they got out the car and chased us.", Jamar said.

"When they caught us they pulled us into an alley and started beating us, they broke our phones too.", Jayden said.

"It was like 6 of them.", Jamar said. I shook my head. Why are people so fucked up? Kids can't walk down the street minding their own business without ignorant motherfuckers doing some ignorant shit.

...

I just dropped Jamar off at home now I'm on my way back to the house. Jayden said that he wanted to stay back. Something don't feel right. I tried calling Jayden but he wouldn't answer the phone. When I made it home I went straight to Jayden's room. I knocked on the door. "Go away!", he cried. I tried opening the door but it was locked.

"Jayden unlock the door.". He didn't say anything. "Jayden? Jayden unlock the door.". I busted the door open and saw him swallow a hand full of pills. I ran to him and shoved my fingers down his throat. He bit down on my fingers hard then threw up. "Jayden what the fuck are you doing?", I asked shaking my hand.

"What did you do!?", he yelled getting on the ground. He started quickly picking the pills out of his throw up so I picked him up and opened his hand making them fall back on the floor. He kept kicking trying to get out of my grip. I left the room still holding him. "GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME!", he yelled crying.

"Jayden calm down!"

"NO LET ME THE FUCK GO! I HATE YOU!", he cried. I took him the closest room which was Nathan's old room it's Jayden's chill room now. I closed the door and locked it then I let him go. "I'm tired of people making fun of me and talking about me and beating me up! I'm tired dad! I just wanna die!". He tried getting past me but I wouldn't let him. Eventually he got tired and gave up. When he did he sat down. I talked to him and calmed him down. I didn't know what to do so I took him to the hospital. While they were talking to him I called Emily. She didn't pick up so I kept calling her. She picked up after the fifth time. She was laughing.

Emily:Hello?
Me:Come to the hospital.
Emily:Why? What's wrong?
Me:Jayden tried to kill his self.
Emily:What?
Me:He tried to kill his self.
Emily:What hospital are you at?
Me:The one by the house.
Emily:I'm on my way.

"Can you take me to the hospital?", I asked standing up quickly and grabbing my purse.

"What's wrong?", Jamal asked standing up and going into in pocket.

"My son tried to kill himself.". He threw a 50 on the table then we left.
