A month has passed as Huey was sitting on the couch, reading his book. Even though he was reading, he couldn't concentrate.

Thank you, Huey. Thank you for being there for me when no one else couldn't.

Huey closed his book and put it on the table. He covered his face while he sighed. Suddenly, someone was ringing the doorbell. "Riley! Get the door!" He heard Granddad said. "I'm washing the dishes!" "Oh, okay...Huey! Get the door!"

Riley snickered, as Huey went towards the front door. He opened the door, shocked to see who was standing in front of him.

"Fae..."

Fae stood before him, staring at him. "Huey," she responded. Gabby came out from behind her. "Gabby," Huey said. She put a peace sign. "Huey." "Gabby?" Riley repeated once he came out of the kitchen. Gabby gasped while she run towards him. "Riley!" she said, hugging him, "How you doin', boy?"

"Boys! What the hell is going on down here?" Granddad asked, as he came downstairs. "Granddad!" Fae and Gabby said, simultaneously, then they ran towards him. Granddad hugged them. "Girls! You're back! I thought I'll never see you again," he said. "I thought you were taken away by that agent. How did you escape?" Huey asked. "That would be thanks to me."

Everyone turned to the front door, seeing an older Native American woman. "Who are you?" Riley retorted. "Oh, my bad. My name is Rachael Smith and I'm Fae and Gabby's grandmother." Huey looked surprised. "Grandmother?" Huey looked at Fae. "You said you didn't know where your grandparents were."

"I didn't. Grandmom found us when they informed that we were taken by the adoption agency," Fae explained. "Once I found out that my daughter got shot by her dog of a boyfriend, I've been searching for Fae and Gabby, but with no luck. I was afraid they were gone for good until years later, they were still here in Maryland, so I took them before they could try to make them orphans," Grandmom explained, "And it's all thanks to you who've been protecting them. I appreciate it, Mr. Freeman."

Granddad smiled at her. "It ain't nothing, cutie pie! And please, call me Robert. But I'm also known to be called Mr. Bitches." Grandmom laughed, as Riley said, "Ew, Granddad. Don't make me throw up!" "So now that you have a guardian, are you finally going to get a house here?" Huey asked Fae. Fae sighed. "Not really. Huey...we're leaving...again."

Huey, Riley, and Granddad looked shocked. "Leaving?!" "Oh, did I forget to mention? I live in Detroit and I'm taking the girls with me," Grandmom said, "until their dead-beat daddy comes out of prison and takes care of them." "So this is the last time we'll see you?" Riley asked. "Or until two years," Fae reminded, "We came to say goodbye before we leave." "Well, we can walk you out," Granddad offered.

Just as all of them went outside, Uncle Ruckus laughed once he saw them. "Judging by the sad, ugly, black faces you're showing, I'd guess these little niggas are leaving again. That just brings a smile on my face," he said. Grandmom raised an eyebrow. "Who this?" "Don't mind him, Grandmom. If ignorance is bliss, he'd be one happy fatso," Fae stated.

"That's right, Indian woman. Take these young primates who ain't got no future and go. Africa, Mexico, wherever they came from. Hell, the jungle, maybe. They're messin' up this peaceful environment that's known as Woodcrest. If they stay long enough, it'll be known as Nigga-crest."

Grandmom glared at him. "Oh, HEEELLL NAW! No, you is not dissin' my granddaughters! Nigga, you dun messed with the wrong one. Hold my earrings!" Grandmom took off her earrings and gave it to Fae. She then went and tackled Uncle Ruckus before he ran away. "Police!" Granddad and Riley instantly laughed. "Camera! I need my camera!" Granddad said, running back inside the house, as Gabby cheered. While that was happening, Huey asked Fae, "How does it feel?" Fae looked at him. "How does what feel?" she questioned.

Granddad came out of the house with a camera, as Huey responded, "How does it feel to finally get someone to take care of you instead of you taking care of someone else?" "Well...it's different. But at least it's over. I'm not a runaway. I'm not an orphan. I'm nobody's adopted daughter. I'm just...me...with my family, sort of. And it's all thanks to you," Fae told him. "I honestly did nothing," Huey admitted. "Yes, you did. Like I said before, you were there for me, so thanks. Thanks for being...my friend. Because of you, I'm finally free...from everything."

Huey was silent for a moment, as he thought about what she said. "See you in two years?" "Maybe," Fae responded, "Take care, Huey." Just as she said that, Grandmom walked towards them and took her earrings. "Well, that's enough excitement for one day. We should get going," she said.

"That was real cool, Grandmom," Gabby said. She turned to Riley. "You gonna miss me?" she asked. Riley crossed his arms. "Niggas don't miss nobody." Gabby just smiled at him, as Riley tried to look away. After some time, he sighed. "But hell, I am gonna miss you, Lil' G," he said, as he hugged her.

"Come back any time," Granddad said. Just as Grandmom was about to walk away, Granddad took her hand. "And I mean any time..." Grandmom smiled at him. "I'll take you up on that offer."

While Grandmom and the girls went inside their car, Uncle Ruckus slowly walked towards Granddad and the boys. Granddad smiled at him. "Hello, Ruckus. How does it feel getting your ass whooped by a woman?!" "Ah, please! I let her. This is what you get for not feeding the animals. That's right. Get on outta here, niggas! Goodbye and good riddance!"

Fae glared at him from the corner of her eye, as Grandmom and Gabby put a middle finger at him. They drove off as Granddad and Riley waved, while Uncle Ruckus limped to his home.

That's when Huey started thinking.

That's the story. Fae and Gabby went to live with their grandmother and in two years, they'll be reunited with their father. I don't know what was it about her that I want to protect so much. All I know is it's over and she's finally out of my life.

Hmmmm...

I could've sworn I would be much happier than this. I wonder if she will actually come back. I wonder if she'll still remember me. But most of all...I wonder why I'm even thinking about all of this.

Yep. It's official...I've gone crazy.

The End
