Hurt (An August Alsina FanFiction)

Khailah

But there was one new face that caught my eye and she was sitting in the corner by her self watching all of the little kids play. She's probably just shy so I decided to keep her company.

'Hey my name is Mrs. Khai' I said sitting criss-cross apple sauce on the floor in front of her.

'Hi my name is Aleah( a-lay-ah)' she said in a quiet voice smiling showing her little dimples.

'Why are you all by yourself Aleah' I asked looking into her little chocolate eyes that kinda mirrored my eyes.

'Yesterday that girl over there playing with the Barbie doll said I was ugly b/c I have purple marks on my legs." I glanced at her legs and saw she had pink joggers on covering her legs so I coudn't see them now.

'Well I think your beautiful Aleah' I said complementing her still curious of the bruises on her legs. This can probably be child abuse and I would have to report this if it is.

'Thank you pretty lady' she said reaching out to touch the poof on my beanie hat.

'Can I see the marks on your legs Leah?' I asked not wanting to invade her privacy.

'Noo b/c your going to say I'm ugly too.' she said moving her legs away from me.

'I promise I won't' I said sticking out my pinky finger. And she looped hers with mine as I picked her up and took her to the bathroom. I sat her on the counter and pulled up the ankle of her pants. To reveal a small bruise on her thigh and one on the back of her calf.

'Aleah how did you get these marks?' I asked feeling a little bad for her.

'My daddy whopped me b/c I accidentally dropped my juice box down the stairs on his white floor 'she said with her eyes watering up a little.

'Don't cry Aleah' I said getting pissed off b/c I hate when parents whoop they kids for little things. I fixed her pants and picked her up off the counter and took her back into the Tiny Toddlers room where they were lining up to get signed out. I kept Aleah in my arms b/c she looked comfortable.

After awhile everyone got picked up but Aleah so I waited for her parents to come then her mom eventually did.

'Hey sorry I'm late I'm here for Aleah' she said while signing her out.

'Oh OK bye Leah' I said setting her down. Her mother glanced at me for a second then did a double take.

'Khailah?' she questioned looking shocked while lifting up Leah.

'Um yes how do you know my name?' I asked a little confused b/c I didn't have my name tag on. But she did look so familiar.

' Oh um we have to go nice meeting you' she said changing the subject and rushing for the door.

Before she reached the door Leah yelled out to me a 'Goodbye' and then they left.

**At home**

When I got home I saw my dad sitting on the couch watching a Basketball game. I decided to ask where the old pictures are.

'Dad do you remember where you put our old family pictures?' I voiced about to do a little problem solving.

'Um yeah sweetie I think they are in the storage closet' he said suspiciously.

As soon as he said that I went to the storage closet and picked up the big box that said Family Photos on it in sharpie. And brought it to my room.

**After awhile**

I found a little box of my baby pictures in there also. Looking through it I found a couple of pictures with a lady that looked exactly like Leah's mom but a little younger. On the back of one picture it said Crystal and Khailah. It looks like she could be my mom b/c the picture was with her in a hospital bed holding a baby. The baby was me b/c it said that on the back of the picture. I decided to ask my dad so I went downstairs stood in front of the TV and cut it off.

'Khailah what the he(gco)

"Dad who is Crystal? I saw her in pictures with me when I was a baby" I asked looking him in his eyes. He looked so confused and shocked.

"She's your mother" he said looking me into my eyes.
