Niyesha's P.O.V

I was on my bed and I just finished writing. The only thing that keeps me at peace. It was 5:30, and my Dad still wasn't home.

Niyesha: I hope...he promised he wouldn't do this again...Gosh Mom! (Starts to scream at the ceiling, no one in particular) Why did you leave?! You still give me no reason for your disappearance. And look...I hope you've seen what you caused. I hate you. I hate you!

Ugh. What was I was saying? I don't hate my mother. I can't bring myself to hate her. The last time I have seen her was when I was seven years old. March 21st, 2006. A teardrop escaped my eye. I quickly wiped it. I won't show any pain. I can't show it. But teardrop after teardrop escaped my eyes. I started to remember that day, like it was just yesterday.

Flashback↓:

Niyesha: Mommy! Mommy, look! My teacher gave me 100 on my writing! Aren't you proud?

Layli (Mom): Of course I am baby. You're a very talented girl, Niyesha.

Niyesha: Why you so sad? Are you okay Mommy? You don't look happy.

Mom: Baby girl don't worry. Mommy's just fine. But I do have to talk to you.

Niyesha: (sits on Layli's lap) What's wrong? Did I do something bad? Are daddy and you fighting again?

Layli: (Sighs and starts to tear up) Yes Nini. Daddy and I are fighting. But I promise we're gonna stop. After today, no more fighting.

Niyesha: (smiles very hard and hugs Layli) You're the best Mommy I can ever have!

(Layli starts to cry. Niyesha tries to comfort her, and Layli hugs her.)

Layli: Now Niyesha, I have to go. But promise me you won't ever let your talents waste. You're a talented little girl. You will always be my baby. I'll always love you. No matter what I'll always love you. Don't you ever forget that.

(Layli goes upstairs, and returns with a bag, and a locket in her hand.)

Layli: Baby girl, I want you to keep this locket. I've had it ever since you were born. When the time is right, open it. Your heart will tell you when. (Starts to cry again.) Mommy has to go now. Be good for me and for your daddy. Te amo Niyesha. Nunca aolvidarme. (Translation→I love you Niyesha. Never forget me.)

Back to the Present...

I started to cry all over again. I didn't understand why they were always fighting. I didn't understand why Daddy screamed so hard and broke everything in sight. I thought it was my fault. But I was doing good in school, how can I be the problem? Then she just left. Leaving me with a confused mind, a locket I still can't open, and an angry father.

Niyesha: (Whispers) I'll never forget you Mommy. I promise to keep on singing, dancing, and acting. I love you.

(Her phone starts to ring.)

"Let's get out there and shine, Like we're suppose to do, The way we moving, We belong in the light..."

Niyesha: I wish I can get to the bright side. If only I can find it.
