"Where are we going ?" Saevionne asked he was 10 and was waiting for Zi'aire to come and get him like he's been doing for the past two years .

"We're moving to New Orleans ." His foster mother told him . It took a while but she finally got him out the house . It was just him and her . She adopted him because her first child died of lung cancer . Her husband left once the baby died cause he felt as if it was her fault when in reality she couldn't control what happened to the baby .

The car ride was the longest . Saevionne didn't know how far he was from home but he'd do anything to get back .

"Saevionne , I know you've been waiting for that girl but if she hasn't come now she's never going to . Now help me take some of these boxes inside ." His foster mother told him . He shook his head . He didn't want to believe her and he was pretty sure he'd never believe her .

He helped her get the light boxes in and some man helped her with the rest of the furniture . She made him go outside for the rest of the day to make friends . He wasn't good at meeting new people . He wished Zi'aire was with him right now . If she was what would she do ? She still wouldn't be able to help him get friends . She'd tell him to introduce himself .

He saw a bunch of older boys walking towards him and became frightened .

"What's ya' name , boy ?" The first one said . He had a thick New Orleans accent . When Saevionne didn't answer the other spoke .

"Did you not hear 'em . What is ya' name , bwoy ? Don't make mi ask ya' again. " The other said in his Jamaican accent .

"Saevionne ." He said hiding his nervousness . He was surprised at how good he was at doing it .

"How old are ya' ?"

"10 ." An older man came from behind them .

"What y'all doing ta' dis boy ? Leave 'fore I empty'a clip ." He said in an accent like the first boy . The boys left and the man looked down at 10 year old Saevionne .

"Ya' need anything , come ta' me . I'm Wild but call me Nick ." Saevionne nodded .

"Lemme walk ya' home ." Saevionne showed the man the way and he went in as the man watched him .

Saevionne was about to take Nick up on that offer . He needed help getting over his addiction and getting back to Atlanta so he could find Zi'aire . He was walking down the road on the way to Nick's main trap when a car pulled up in front of him .

"Sae , get in ." Nick yelled out the window and he did as told .

"Why ya' look like ya' been sniffin' coke ?" Nick questioned his continuos shaking and scratching . Saevionne gave him a look that told him everything .

"You been buyin' my shit ?" Nick was heated . He wanted way better for Saevionne . He wanted Saevionne to do all the shit he's never gotten the chance to do and then some .

"It started off as a l-little bit of coke but It's been goin' on fa' a mont' and I wanted help gettin' ova, it ." Saevionne spoke in his New Orleans accent he developed over time . Nick nodded . He was going to get him over it even if he didn't want the help .

"Fa' starters , you stayin' at mine Fa' the next couple of mont's . Then , ya' gone start goin' back ta' school . Don't no female like a stupid nigga . My wife gone get you patched up aight ?" Nick said and Saevionne nodded .
