Arianna

*4 weeks later*

Damon and my mom helped me pack everything into the car. I was so excited and so sad at the same time.

"Well this is it." Damon said.

"You're coming with me for a week Damon."

"I know but still." He said.

As we continued packing everyone began to show up.

"Arianna." I heard Kyla say as she got out the car.

"Oh Kyla." I said walking over to her, beginning to cry.

"I'm gonna miss you so much." She said hugging me.

"I'm gonna miss you more, I promise I will FaceTime you everyday until I come back."

"Okay.." She said looking down.

I sighed and looked behind her at Braylon.

"Imma miss you man." He said.

"Imma miss you too Bray, promise me you won't get into any trouble while I'm gone." I said smiling.

"I promise bro." He said laughing.

After a while Marcus and Stephanie showed up together with Armani also.

I couldn't help but see how hurt Mani was.

I walked over to her and she immediately turned away from me.

"Mani." I said bending down and tapping her shoulder.

She didn't turn around.

"Baby please look at me." I said.

She turned around and I could see the tears rolling down her face.

"Don't cry-

"You promised you wouldn't leave me!" She yelled, crying harder.

I picked her up and just held her.

I couldn't help but tear up.

"Baby i promise I'm not leaving you. I will forever be right here." I said pointing to her heart.

"I love you so much and I want you to never forget that. There's not gonna be one day where I won't think about my little one. I promise when I get back down here it's just me and you okay?" I said wiping her tears.

"I love you mommy." She said wrapping her arms around my neck.

"I love you too honey."

I put her down and looked at Marcus.

He put his head down and had his hands in his pockets.

"You okay Marcus?" I asked.

"I hate seeing Armani so sad." He said.

"Just let me take her with me please-

"No Arianna, she has to learn to miss you first. If you take her to Boston with you she's not gonna wanna leave and it'll make the goodbye harder."

"It's not a goodbye, it's a see you later." I mumbled.

"Look, I promise she'll be okay." Marcus said.

"Well who's gonna spoil her now?" I asked.

"I gotchu girl." Stephanie said smiling.

I have her a hug and laughed.
