Nanny Dearest

Chapter Forty Eight Family Past Issues

((^Peep the picture. It should be easier to tell who POV is without me writing it now hope this helps ))

Moved the laundry from the washing machine to the dryer. I peep my head out the small Laundry room looking in at my bathroom to still see Halston knock out. It's actually morning now like a quarter to eight. I step out closing the door walking to the bathroom. I try calling Marya but she didn't pick up, I even went out the way to try and call Ruslan office but no one answered either so I figured I'll just drive to the damn house later on.

I walk over to Halston as he slept still shaking a little but his his breathing his normal now. I tap his shoulder to wake him but of course he's not gonna wake up to that. Turning the shower on could do the trick but I'll give him a break.

"Halston." I called his nap patting his face nonstop until he wake up. Once I saw his eyes moving and then open looking at me. Before he yawn stretching but hit his foot against the wall. I held in a laugh because he is a little tall so I don't know how sleeping in a tub was comfortable then again it's better than the side walk.

"Mm I up." He announced before fixing his eyes on me. 

"What did you take?" I asked him and he looked at me confused at first until realization seem to hit his expression and he sat up fast but quickly held his head clenching his teeth.

"Shi- where's my phone." He asked looking around, I watch his behavior as he had a little stress on his face. I rolled my eyes because the phone should probably be the last thing he's worried about.

"Don't know, you didn't have it with you when you was pass out on the side." I said with a straight face and he tried to get up fast as the blanket and towel fell. I forgot he was ass naked underneath, I ain't gonna hold I did looked him up and down. I haven't really paid attention but he is really fully tatted well expect down there. I tilt my head and look up at him leaning against the wall with his eyes closed. I back up some putting my hands in my pocket. I wasn't wearing nothing special just some blue high waisted jeans and a white top.

"Fuckin- ite." He said before opening his eye looking at me tilting his head. "What did you asked me?" He questioned back tracking on what I said not to long ago. 

"I asked you what did you take." I repeated myself and he raised an eyebrow he open his mouth but shut it rubbing his head. "Also do you want to sit or actually lay down bruh your shaking and ion want you to pass out again." I commented and he nod his head getting out the tub I moved over letting him walk pass and I followed making sure he won't fall. Halston made his way to my room and plop on my bed. I went in my closet looking for something he did left behind from his last visit. I came out with some black sweat pants throwing it his way. He look at it for a minute before putting attempting to put them on. I watch him struggle for a minute but he successfully put them on.

"Mixture." He said and I lean on my desk putting one hand on my head.

"Huh?" 

"You ask me what did i take? I took a mixture, first it was the usual which is just heroin but there's was a lot of drugs and new products so we mixed some." He said and my eyes widened. 

"Halston you can fucking die. Fuck did you mix with it crack?" I asked I change my tone a little but wasn't yelling.

"..Crack honestly that's kind of weak for me. I had Benzo I think and a few others." He admitted and my mind started to go five miles trying to find a way to respond to the. 

"Fuck is Benzo?" I asked and I cross my arms moving from my desk.

"Short for Benzodiazepine its anti-anxiety medications its had like Xanax, Valium and this K word I cant pronounced right. Now that I think about it combining it with barbiturates, opioids, and alcohol. Could lead to high risk of an overdose… I combined heroin to see what high I get and the way I can't remember shit I must of black out." He said and I stare at this nigga in disbelief, first of all woah he said a lot of big ass words I wasn't familiar with and two why ain't he some sort of doctor or scientist what the fuck he could be doing way better if he knows his shit like that. 

"Halston I really don't think that's okay are you sober enough though?" I check my watch looking at the time. Nine fifteen. "I asked because later on we have to go see Ruslan he wanted us to do something for him." I lied through my teeth and watch the man look at me studying my face. I stare back at him with no expressions and he look away staring at the wall.

"Yeah I have a killer headache and feel fucking tired but I'm good." He said and I walk over sitting next to him on the bed.

"How are you going to explain the shaking when we get there." I ask because I genuinely want to know. Halston shrug his shoulders. 

"Probably say I didn't eat today. What time are we suppose to be there?" He asked and I didn't know because I lied.

"He said on our own time its nine something now you wanna leave ten thirty?" I asked and he was in thought but nod his head agreeing as he lay down on the bed grabbing the tv remote turning it on. "I be back, going to make breakfast. " I said getting up leaving the bedroom making my way downstairs the faint nose from my bedroom tv was heard but seems like her turn it up more but I don't really mind that. I took my phone out calling my sister's why I take some ingredients out so I can make French toast and have bacon or sausages with it. The phone rang twice and heard the other line.

"Lyanna you okay?" Marya voice was in a worrisome tone I smile a little because she acts like I'm a baby stressing over me twenty four seven.

"Yeah sorry for hanging up last time we talk I got irritated. " I said being honest and we share a laugh.

"Child I didn't care, I wanted to ask you a question since last night I try calling but you didn't pick up." She said and I hummed. 

"Occupied with the insurance job my fault sis, but if your question has anything to deal with Halston tell Ruslan I found him and we're coming over around ten or ten thirty. " I said and she let out a sigh.

"Whew what a relief and I'll let him know, I'm sorry that I told him by the way but I thought if my sister was going through that I would want someone to tell me." She said and I smile nodding my head.

"It's alright I had a gut feeling anyway plus your boyfriend scares me so I rather have you drop a bomb instead of me." I said and we shared a laugh again. I almost forgot I didn't have a cup of coffee today so I stop what I was doing and open my cabinet getting my coffee mug.

"Yes but this is serious and it looks like it Ruslan is really effected I try talking he said he's not in the mood to, just let him know if we found Halston. Like his mood is a mix between anger and depression. " She whispered a little and I giggle at that.

"Shit anger and depression is me at all times." I light hearted joke.

"Aye." Marya tone sound like a parent and I held in a laugh shaking my head. Oh I've dealing with depression since I was like in high school I made a suicide attempt if it wasn't for my sister finding me I would be dead.

"It was a joke I promise anyway maybe he just need space or try asking his sister Av..Avonna?" I question trying to remember that girl name.

"It's Avery and I did she said when he get's like that Franciszka the only one who can like calm him down." She said and I raise and eyebrow while getting the filter inside the coffee pot and the grind up coffee beans in the filter. 

"Who the hell is that?" I asked because no one had ever mentioned her.

"Ruslan a widower babygirl his wife passed." She shared the information and I paused looking out the window watching cars go by.

"He was married? Oh wow yeah that make sense." I said and resume to make me my coffee. 

"Mhm, I did asked Avery what did Franciszka do but she said she had no idea. I am giving space but that seems like it's not working." I can hear her getting sad a little.

"Awe give it time I'm pretty sure he'll communicate." I said looking at the coffee being poured.

"I'll figured something out, other than that I see you when you get here." She finished as I place my mug in front of me waiting.

"Alright sis I see you, love ya." I said and she said it back before we hung up.
