I sat on this dark sofa staring at my feet. The feeling of knowing my brother was killed and alone hurts my insides. Sitting across me was this little girl with curly hair. She held on to a bear that had Dario's voice in it. She'll press it over and over "I love you Kallie Bear."
"I love you too Dario." She said pressing it one last time. She got up and ran to her mom crying. I looked at the bear with so much sorrow in my eyes.
"Arianna." I looked back it was Steve. I was lost for words I just started crying. He ran to sit on the sofa and hug me.
"Th-hey took my brother." I stuttered crying on his shoulder. He rubbed my back said it's gonna be ok, but it's not.
"You're very strong Ari WE will get threw it." I wiped my face and shook my head.
"I'm not , you will but I'm not."
"Seeing you hurt also affects me." I looked at him and tears kept falling.
"I haven't seen Fizz and it's bothering me." I did not see Fizz at the funeral nor the repast. "I hope he's around."
"You want to go look for him?" I shook my head.
"I'll wait for Fizz to be ready. Let's just go home I can't do this anymore." I got up to leave but something was telling me go upstairs."Wait wait.." I️ let go of Steve and went upstairs. I followed the noise of movement down the hall. As I️ got closer I heard voices.
"Pack your shit before they come." I️t was Fizz voice.
"Fizz?" I tapped on the door quietly. Behind the door a lot of movement was happening when I️ said his name.
"Ari that's you?"
"Yes." I said lowly. "Steve is here too." I️ looked at Steve and gave him a soft smile.
"Ari you can come in but Steve can't." I looked at Steve and shrugged. I opened the door slowly and went in.
"Hi." I looked at Fizz his eyes was red and his room smelt like weed. "You've been smoking." He nodded and looked down.
"I'm stressed." He started moving around packing things.
"You're still going to school?"
"Nah." I bit my lip and watch him move around.
"Where are you going?"
"Leaving."
"Leaving?"
"I gotta get out of town." I looked at his suitcases he had Dario's clothes packed also.
"Why didn't you call me?" I looked at him as the tears came back. "I deserved to know from my family not the news." His eyes began to water.
"Not right now Ari."
"Don't leave please." He just stared at me and stop packing. "You're my only brother left." Fizz walked up to me and hugged me tight.
"I have to Ari I can't stay here."
"Yes you can! Dario would want us to finish school not run away." I let go of his hug and held his hands.
"I'm sorry but I do." He let go and packed again.
"Why?!" My voice was loud now.
"We'll talk later I promise." He kissed my forehead and open his door.
"You're leaving me after I lost my brother! I understand you guys was closer but I loved him to Fizz. I wanted a relationship with him so badly. He's the greatest gift my dad ever gave me. I just don't get I️t."
"Not for you to get Ari. We live in a different world than you. We rely on the streets to get where we want to get you had mommy and daddy to get you where you want to be." Fizz was upset now I never saw this side of him.
"I was here to help my fucking brother I was getting him out the streets."
"How that turned out then? You can't stop the hustle obviously. I tried too but Dario so HARD HEADED." He yelled and looked at his closet. "You need to leave." I looked back at him confused. I watched the closet again and stormed out his room.
"Fuck you Fizz!" Steve appeared telling me it's gonna be okay. I pulled away from him and stormed downstairs to my car.
Fizz POV
I️ stared at the ground heartbroken. Ari didn't deserve that at all I'm all she got at this moment and I'm leaving her.
"You didn't have to be a asshole to her." I looked at my closet door revealing the walking dead.
"She's broken . We broke her."
