Angel In Disguise

Chapter 15 (Storm)

It had been a week since Chris threatened me and my face had healed. School was officially out for the summer and while most kids were excited, I wasn't. My summer was going to be filled with a bunch of bullshit. I had no friends. I thought April was a true friend but she wasn't. Her and Meeka had become besties. I still thought about Myshon damn near everyday but I couldn't get in touch with him because I had no phone. We Talked to eachother during the last week of school but now that school was out we couldn't. It was almost 8 o'clock and I hadn't ate anything. I headed downstairs to see what I could eat. I searched the cabinets high and low and couldn't find anything. I kept looking and found a can of Viennas, that would have to do. I opened up the little Can and poured the juice out. I didn't even warm them up I just ate them the way they were. After I was finished I threw the Can in the trash and went upstairs to my bedroom. Once I got inside I grabbed my MP3 player and my headphones. I decided to go to the park and just listen to music. My mama nor Chris was at home. As I was walking out of the door I started my playlist. The park was only like 5 minutes away so it didn't take me long to get there. The sun had started to set and it was getting dark. I sat down on the swing and swung back and forth. As I swung back and forth my favorite song came on.
🎶Someone point me in the right direction
Tell me where's the nearest piece of mind I'm going crazy
Knight in shining armor in the distance
He sees the angel threatening my life
Why won't he save me?🎶
I sung along with Neyo as he sung Silenty Screaming. This song described my pain. My favorite part came on and I sung my heart out. I could actually sing, many people didn't know it though.
🎶Even though I'm totally surrounded
I feel like I'm in here by myself
How about you do it cuz you love me
Not cuz you want something in return
Is that so crazy...... oh crazy
In the middle of a sea of helpless
But see I never learned how to swim
Somebody save me..... save me
All I want is somebody to give a damn
Notice that I'm struggling and lend a hand
They say everybody needs someone to understand
Well dammit, that includes me too
All I want is someone to be there for me
Somebody that genuinely cares
But I'm just dreaming
It's like I'm silently screaming🎶
After I finished the song I had tears streaming down my face. That song spoke volumes for me. I just wish I had somebody who cared, sombody who understood. I heard clapping and that's when I noticed someone had been standing there listening the whole time. I could tell it a dude I just couldn't see his face and that scared me. This mystery person walked towards me and that's when I noticed it was Myshon. My fear Subsided and was placed with a Nervous Like Joy. I was happy it was him but I was also nervous to be around him. He did something to me that I couldn't explain. "Damn Ma you sound good asf I didn't know you could sing" Myshon said as he came and sat on the swing next to me. He looked good even though he just had on some sweats, a plain t shirt, and slides. "Thanks no one knows" I said looking down, while tucking my hair behind my ear. "Stop looking down when you talk, you have no reason to be shy around me" Myshon said flashing me that pretty ass smile of his, which caused me to smile. "You should do that more often" Myshon said. "Do what" I asked confused because I hadn't done anything. "Smile, you pretty asf Storm" Myshon said staring into my eyes. "Thanks" I said looking down but quickly picking it back up remembering what he had said. When i looked back up Myshon was still looking at me. His green eyes twinkled in the moonlight. "What you doing out here Ma" Myshon asked Lightly swinging back and forth. " I always come out here to listen to music and clear my mind" I said glancing at him. Myshon nodded in agreement and said "yeah I do too well not the listening to music part but I do come out to clear my mind". I could tell something was wrong by the tone of his voice. Even though I needed help myself I felt the need to ask him what was wrong in hopes that I could fix it. "What's wrong" I asked him. "My parents been on my mind heavy these past few weeks, and  it's driving me crazy" Myshon said, running his hands down his face. "What happened to your parents, if you don't mind me asking" I said. He rarely spoke about his parents so I was curious.
"They died In a house fire when I was 13" Myshon said. I felt bad that I had asked. "I apologize for asking, I'm sorry for your lost" I said. I could only imagine how he felt losing both of his parents. I wish I knew where my father was. I wonder did he think about me. I wonder if he was anything like my mama. She never talked about him. After he left I used to ask about him all the time but that would cause for me to get a beating. So after awhile I just stopped asking about him. "Nah you good, I still think about them it's just hard you know. I live with my grandma and lord knows I love my nana she just too holy" Myshon said with a light chuckle. "I get it" I said with a smile. Myshon got up and came behind me and started pushing me on the swing. "Enough about me. Wassup with you? How you been doing? I been Tryna get in touch with you but it's kinda been hard being as tho you have no phone" he said still pushing me. I held on to the sides of the swing as I went back and forth. "I been ok, I been working on getting a phone but you know how that goes" I said. It was kind of embarrassing being almost 16 years old and not having a phone. I was going to try to get a summer job. "Here take this" Myshon said handing me a Gold iPhone 6s Plus. I was shocked but also happy. "Oh no I can't take your phone" I said shaking my head. "Storm if you don't get this damn phone, you said you been Tryna get one so here you go, I can get another one" he said shoving it into my hands. I sighed and took the phone. "Thank you Myshon" I said standing up and hugging him. He hugged me back tightly. He smelled so good that I didn't want to let go, I didn't let go. Me being wrapped up in his arms gave me a feeling I hadn't had before, comfort. Once we ended our hug we walked hand and hand over to the slide. We played and laughed for hours. I felt so good being with him. "Did you ever tell yo mama about what happened" Myshon asked as we sat on the Merry-go-round. "Yeah I did but she didn't believe me" I said with a sigh. When I was younger I used write letters to Santa. But I didn't ask for toys like other little kids. I asked for my mama to love me. That's all I wanted, but I never got what I asked for. "That's fucked up man but don't worry about it I got you" Myshon said Sliding closer to me putting his arm around me. "Do you really" I asked looking at him. I really wanted to know. No I really NEEDED to know. "Listen ma, when you with me you ain't gotta worry about anything. I got you, trust me." He said. I heard the sincerity behind his words so I knew he meant it. "It's 4 o'clock in the morning you better head on home Ma" Myshon said. I hadn't realized we had been out here this long. "You right I didn't even know it was this late" I said standing up. "Come on I'll drop you off at home" Myshon said. I wanted to tell him I could walk. But I was sleepy so I didn't even protest. We walked to his car, which was parked across from the park. Myshon opened my door and I slid in. He walked around to his door and I reached over to unlock his door. He got in and started up the car. "Where you live at Babygirl" Myshon asked. "Them TownHouse apartments up the street on the right" I said. I didn't want to go home. But I couldn't tell him that. We pulled up to the Apartments, and I told him to park at the second building. "Imma text you ma be Safe" Myshon said. It's something about that word safe. How could I be safe when I lived in the house with 2 monsters. "I'll try thanks for the ride and for the phone you didn't have to do that" I said opening up the door. "Stop thanking me I told you I got you now give me a kiss" Myshon said biting on his lip sexily. I leaned over and pecked his lips I tried to hurry up and pull away but Myshon grabbed my face deepening the kiss. Like the time we kissed at the hospital the kiss was filled with so much passion. Myshon pulled away and kissed me on my forehead. "Go in the house ma its getting real late" he said. I got out of the car and headed towards my house. I wanted to turn around but I decided against it. Once I made it in the house everything was exactly the way I left it. My mama car wasn't parked out front and I didnt hear anything in the house so I assumed she wasn't here. I went up to my bedroom and stripped out of my street clothes. I threw on some pajamas and hopped in bed closing my eyes. I didn't know what tomorrow may bring. I could only pray that I would be able to handle it.
