Kylie Sy'mere

I sat next to Layla smiling as I buckled up. "You seem happier." I said to her. "I realized I don't need a nigga, especially Kentrell. And since I was taking college classes in high school, I only have 1 year of school left to get my degree in fashion." She said. "Really? That's good congratulations." I said giving her a side hug.

"Then, I can start cosmetology school." She added. I nodded. We were on the plane now, headed to Hawaii. I couldn't wait to get there and just have the time of my life, before my life turn to shit.

Don't get me wrong, I am excited about the baby. But, I am scared. I sighed just thinking about everything. "Everything is going to be fine Kylie, stop overthinking it." Layla said. I nodded. "I know." I said. As the plane took off, I decided to take a quick nap.

"Kylie! We here!" I heard Kylan squeal. A quick nap turned into a whole slumber. I stretched wiping my eyes before looking out the window at the beautiful sight.

"Time to have some fun." Layla yelled. I recorded the view on my phone before saving the video and putting my seat belt back on so we could land.

Once we made it off the plane, I looked up seeing the person I never thought I'd have to see again. "Kylie?" He asked smirking. I felt my breathing increase, and my heart started beating rapidly. "What's wrong Kylie?" My dad asked. "That's him." I mumbled feeling like I was about to pass out. I seen my dad facial expression change as he charged at him.

"Come on Kylie." She sat me in a chair and handed me a bottle of water. "It's okay babes, it's okay." She said kissing my cheek. I finally calmed down, my dad came back over to us and sat next to me. "You okay?" I nodded. "You won't have to worry about him no more, I promise you that." He said pulling me into a hug.

We finally decided to leave the airport and head to the hotel. "Kylie and Layla is sharing a room with Kylan." My uncle Dave said. "Everyone else has a room to their selves." He added.

We grabbed our keys to the room and headed up. "I'm about to get my number changed." Layla mentioned. "Why?" I asked. "He keeps blowing up my phone apologizing, and I don't have time for it." She said. I shook my head and set my suit case on the bed. "You know what we doing first?" I asked her. "I think a tour." She said. I nodded and pulled out another set of clothes, since the time zones are different, it was early in the day over here.

"Let me take a shower and freshen up the!" I said grabbing my clothes going into the bathroom. Deciding I wanted to wash my hair, I left out the bathroom and grabbed my shampoo and conditioner. "Make it quick." Layla told me.

I nodded and headed back to the bathroom.
