Kyrie's P.O.V.
"Marshall said hi.."
"Nooooo!" I cried, "get off of me!, I'm gonna kill you!" I screamed at him.
"Shut up, little boy, and just wait until I'm done!" he said touching me. His touch made me want to vomit and run until my lungs gave out.

"But dad!, I don't want to go to piano lessons anymore!" I screamed.
He just glared at me, "That is enough Kai! You're going!" he screamed.
"Dad! he's mean to me, he touched me!" I said crying.
"That's a horrible thing to say about Marshall, he's been my friend for years. Now when you get there you must apologize for what you've said about him!" dad said angrily.
"NO!" I said in protest.
"What's the matter Kyrie?" Mom asked, entering the room. "I can hear you guys yelling from down the hall."
"He's making up lies about Marshall so he wouldn't have to go to piano lessons." Dad said accusingly. I started to cry harder.
"Why would you do that Kyrie? I've told you over and over that lying is never the answer. Now you're going!" she said pulling my arm, not even listening to my side of the story.
She dragged me outside towards the car. "NOOOO, PLEASE! PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME GOO!" I hollered so loud it seemed as if the entire neighbourhood could have heard me.

"Kai!, Kai!" I felt someone shaking me. I pitched up scaring the person next to me. It was Layah.
"Shit. I'm sorry for scaring you." I said, trying to calm down.
"You were having a bad dream, you were screaming Kai...I didn't know what to do!" she said frantically.
I let out a heavy sigh and wrapped her in my arms. It went silent and a little awkward. I knew she wanted to know what my nightmare was about.
"It was just a bad dream, don't worry about it." I lied, trying to push the situation to the back of my mind.
Layah broke free from my arms and sat up to look me in my eyes. "Are you..sure?" she asked, I can see that she really wanted to press the situation but didn't. I'm glad she didn't. She opened her mouth to say something and her words were cut off by the sharp shrill of my phone.
"Damn. It's early. Who the hell is this calling my phone?" I said as I picked up. "Hello?" I said. A wave of seriousness and confusion instantly washed over my face.
"What?....slow down Trey, where are you?" I asked.
""Okay, we will be right there." I said. I looked at Layah and gave her a sad look.
"What? What happened Kai?" Layah asked started to get worried. She shot up in the bed.
"Kayla...collapsed this morning. Trey took her to the hospital." I said weakly.
"What?! We have to go now.!" she said as she scrambled to put on her clothes. I tried to help calm her nerves by putting back on my clothes and helping her pick up her things.
"Let's go ma." I said holding her hand as we exited the room and walked down the large staircase.

Trey's P.O.V.
My mind is all over the place. Why did I push her? Oh my God, what if I hurt her real bad? I won't forgive myself. I truly do love her. I realized this when she wasn't waking up when I shook her continuously. I thought I lost her forever, just like I did my brother. I have to make things right...I need to make things right.
