On My Own A Diggy Simmons Love Story Book 3

Chapter 49: Trippy

Diggy P.O.V

I exited out of the gate and walked at a medium speed. Once I was there she opened the door and lead me to her bedroom. I stood up as she sat down. I wasn’t even trying to get to comfortable. I just wanted it all to end.

Iris: So….

Diggy: Listen I’m sorry for hurting your feelings

Iris: It’s alright I’m sorry for everything I’ve done too.

Diggy: *smirks* not going to lie you hit hard to be a girl

Iris: Just a lot of anger *hears noise* Diggy my mom’s home get in the closet! I’m not suppose to have company

Diggy: *runs to closet and hides*

Man you got to be serious. I should have just come in the morning if I got to do all this. Her mom knows me pretty well though I don’t see why I can’t just leave. I see the lights go off in Iris bedroom. This can’t be happening to me.  I sit in the closet before calling out Iris name

Diggy: Iris!

Iris: Shhh!!!! *bedroom door opens and mom comes in*

Mom: I think I drink too much *slurred words*

I watched through the slightly cracked door as Iris sat up and Shannon passes out on her bed. That was my first time ever seeing her that way. I sat crouched on the ground close to Iris’s shoes and I felt uncomfortable. I stayed quiet as I heard sniffles coming from the bed. I watched as Iris silently cried while stroking her mom’s hair. I guess I know who the parent is. But Shannon was always a good mom to Iris so I wondered what happened.

Diggy: *whispers* Iris you okay?

Iris: Yeah just hold on a sec….

I waited for her to straighten herself up. She shifted up in the bed and then there was another disturbance at the door. It was a man. He opened the door and came in. It was dark in the room so I couldn’t see his face fully but I knew he was drunk too. The only light in the room was the light from outside the window.

Iris: What do you want? *rudely*

Man: Where’s your mom? *drunk*

Iris: She went to bed for the night. Can you leave too? I’ll call you a taxi.

Man: No I want to see her.

Iris: look right there *points* now go

Man: *takes off his shoes* I guess we’re going to sleep in here,

Iris: Get out!!!

Man: Listen little girl…I’m going to marry your mom *words slurred*

Iris: No your not …now leave otherwise I will call the cops

Man: Since you are my daughter now *walks over to bed* you have to do what I say

Iris: *reaches for cell phone but he pulls her hand*

Man: Let’s slow dance

Iris: No…What is wrong with you? Put on your shoes and get out.

Man: Are you talking back to me?

Iris: Will you just leave? *annoyed*

Man: No

I needed to do something before he attacks her or rape her. I stood up and opened the door.

Diggy: You need to leave…Now!

Man: *startled* you must be her son or someone; had too many bad experiences so I will just go *takes shoes and leaves*

Iris: I’m sorry that you had to hide in the closet.

Diggy: It’s alright. I’m going to go check and see if he left yet.

I ran rapidly downstairs and looked around. There was no trace of him so I came back up.

Diggy: Alright he is gone

Iris: Thank you, you can leave if you want

Diggy: Alright bye *walks out of bedroom*

As I walked down the hall of Iris house; I realized I couldn’t leave her alone. I turned around and walked back to her bedroom. She looked up as I came in.

Diggy: I’m going to stay. You shouldn’t be here by yourself

Iris: Are you sure?

Diggy: Yeah *takes off sweater and shoes*

Iris: Where are you going to sleep?

Diggy: I’ll sleep at the foot of the bed. *drags mom to head of the bed and removes heels then tucks her in*

Iris: You won’t feel like a puppy? *laughs*

Diggy: I’ll sleep vertically. *removes end of cover and gets in as Iris throws a few pillows*

I don’t know what Elana will think about this.
