Lani
I can say I've gotten far without my parents but this is too much. My mother was already dead by the time the ambulance arrived. My dad overdosed on drugs and the ambulance couldn't do much.
They said my dad's been using all types of drugs for a month. All I can say is that's the most selfish thing someone could do.
I miss my mom even if she did treat me poorly. You only get one mom, not two or three but one.
"It's official, my life is pointless." I chuckled softly laying my head on Ki's shoulder.
"Lani, don't say that." Ki picked me up bridal style as I wrapped my arms around her neck.
"Thank you for being with me through all this."I sniffled as she sat me down on my bed.
"Don't sweat it." Ki kissed my forehead before going into my closet taking my suitcase.
"You don't have to pack my stuff, I can do it myself." I wiped my face with my sleeves standing up but she sat me back down.
"Lani, it's okay, I don't want you crying all night by staying in here, looking at everything that reminds you of your parents." She trailed off and folded my clothes putting them in my suitcase.
"What about you? You have to pack your stuff too." My eyes were red and I just wanted to run off.
"I got someone taking care of that." Ki pushed my hair back as I looked up at her.
I folded some clothes while sitting down. Ki wiped the tears that were falling down my face, I'm trying so hard not to cry but I feel like I'm gonna explode.
"Lani, it's gonna be okay." Ki cooed giving me a hug as I clenched onto her shirt getting tears on it.
"I just want my mom." I sobbed even louder taking in deep breaths. "I know baby, I know." She held me so close I didn't want her to let go but she had to
"Please don't leave me." I coughed wiping my face for the hundredth time.
Crying... all I know is to cry and cry. Tuh I'm such a big baby.
We stared at each other and I wanted to feel something, I wanted to convince myself that I like Ki. It's impossible for me to do that because I don't feel anything, and also cause I don't want Lexi having my sloppy seconds.
"Lani, you know I can't get with you." Ki sighed as I nodded my head, she read me like an open book.
"We're friends and that's it." I was done crying for now but I don't want much from Ki.
She reminds me of Alex and I hate it. Alex probably doesn't want to talk to me since I pushed her away. Now all I want is for her to love me.
"You're gonna make yourself cry." She said nonchalantly folding my clothes. "That's what I do best," I mumbled drying my cheeks with my sleeve.
We've been folding clothes and taking anything from the house that I want, like anything my mom gave me.
"We're almost done," Ki mumbled folding the last of my clothes and put them in my bag.
I don't know what to do with myself at this point, I have nothing left. Alex and I broke up, both my parents passed away, not one but both. I don't see the purpose of life anymore.

Afternoon
"Word from Ashton is Lani coming back home." Niah patted my back as I shrugged. "Good for her," I said washing my plate in the sink.
