Asia POV

My vision was "fuzzy". I could feel the cold blood running down my head. I picked my arm up, my groaning muffled by the wet grass that my face was lying on. I tried getting up using my arms but they were messed up and too weak from me using them to protect my head and stomach. I rolled over picking myself up using my whole body. I could feel an intense pain shock throughout my body. I ignored it because I didn't want my 'mom' to come out the house and make things worse. I slowly walked towards my bedroom window trying to resist the pain. Thank god I decided to pack some things before this all went down. I picked up my backpack failing to swing it over my shoulders.

"Ugh." I got both of my arms in the straps of my bag and started slowly walking off the front yard grass. I hope nothing is broken, but I don't think if I had a broken bone I would be able to walk right now I just gotta pray I'm alright. I walk through the neighborhood hiding behind the trees. It's not safe being out here while the sky is pitch black. And I don't got time to be held at gun or knife point again.

I keep walking trying to keep myself together. My physical and mental state was messed up right now I just need to find somewhere to stay for the night, I'm not gon go like this. I see the little plaza that I used to walk to with my friends ever since I was a youngn. I walk to the back of the stores and fall onto the ground next to the Waste Management dumpster. I didn't care that I was next to the dumpster, right now all I can feel is pain. Why couldn't I have been more careful. I've been playing it safe all this time and I ruined it now. Where am I going to go?

Once I gained some energy I went to the hose and started washing the blood off my hands. I poured water on my hands and tried to get the blood off my hair. I hope I didn't get my head injured too bad. Why do I feel like this. I'm basically homeless now and I'm severely injured but my mind isn't comprehending what's going on. All I can feel is pain. I sat back down next to the dumpster after trying my best to wash off all the blood. I used my clothes to dry myself off because it was getting cold. I hugged my bag trying to keep me warm. I was so hungry, tired, weak, and injured. I wanted to go to sleep but I couldn't trust that I'd be safe here unconscious. I barely stayed up until I saw the sun rising. You can hear all the cars' tired as they was driving past the stores. I was sore all over my body. I got up and walked to the metro bus stop. I probably look like another one of them crackheads but at this point I really didn't care. The bus arrived to my stop and people started getting off. It was full of people so I got in through the back door.

I pulled the wire when I was at the stop that was near my uncle's house. I don't know if he would take me in but he's my only option at this point. I got to his house and pulled the horseshoe that was on his door. "Asia? What are you doing here?" My uncle asked with a confused look on his face as he opened the door. I gave him a hug. I wanted to tell him what happened but when all the events ran through my mind my head started aching and my eyes were tearing. All I could do was cry. I felt so helpless. "Come on inside I'll get you some water." He signaled me to come inside. I nodded and sat my ass down on his couch. He came back with a water bottle and I drank the whole bottle in seconds. "So what happened Asia?" He asked as he looked kind of worried.

I turned to him and started telling him what happened. Ugh I can feel myself tearing up again. He told me everything was going to be alright and that I can stay with him. That made me feel a little better after everything. I thanked him as he showed me the extra room in the house. I went to take a shower since I still had dried up blood on me.

I wore the clothes that I packed. I looked at my head in the mirror. It looked better now to be honest. It probably looked worse before because of all the blood from before. I went to the living room and my uncle gave me an ice pack to put on my head. He also gave me clothes that he bought while I was taking a shower. I was so thankful my uncle was fine with everything. I didn't think I would feel this safe this soon.

Two Weeks Later
"Asia!! I got some leftovers come here!" I heard my uncle yell from the front door. I run out my room and sat on the dark blue couch. He laid out the food on the coffee table and we started eating.

Few hours later

I started to feel "weird", I could feel like a shift in my consciousness I can't really explain it. I think it was something in the food. My vision was starting to blur and get darker. I jumped backwards onto my bed and had my hands over my head. Everything went black but I was still aware of what was going on around me. I heard my uncle walk into my room. "She should be good now." I heard my uncle say something unclear to me, it seemed like he was talking to himself.
