Kentrell house

1:30am           


                                Aaliyah pov                                   

I woke up to someone or something on my chest but when looked it wasn't a human it was one of my many demons that haunt me at night. I couldn't move I couldn't scream all I could do was sit there scared. I dont know what the demon was singing but it was singing a tune that was starting to get stuck in my head. Eventually it stopped humming and just looked at me. It gave me a devilish smile and whispered in my ear " The more you sleep the more I will haunt you and make you even more miserable" and with that he disappeared. I sat up gasping for air because I could barley breath.  I was wondered to myself if I should tell kentrell and my uncles about this but then again I have really bad trust issues so what if they just use it against me. The reason I feel like they will use it against me is because I opened up to a girl at the foster home about my mom and she threw it in my face how she died and told me that was why it was my fault. That was the first time I opened up to someone and I will never do it again. Snapping out of my thoughts I pulled some pills out my suitcase to keep me awake. I just sat up thinking, by now its about 8:15 am and kentrell came in my room surprised to see me up but you could tell I didn't get any sleep. " Hey Aaliyah what you doing up so early, you look like you didn't get any sleep " he said looking generally concerned . "Im fine"was all I replied. Before he could say another word I walked into my bathroom connected to my room and just started cutting feeling worthless.

After Aaliyah shut the door on me I was lowkey mad asf because how you gone close the door in my face in my own fucking house. I walked downstairs as gang was aid across the couch and floor knocked tf out. I decided to grab me some water and get a paper and pen and write some lyrics. After like 30 minutes I noticed Aaliyah still wasn't downstairs and I was getting hungry but I cant cook. I was ordering me food but no one else. Even though Aaliyah pissed me off earlier thats still considered my child so I guess ill ask her what she want. I knocked on her door no answer. I opened her door she wasn't in there but her bathroom light was on and the door was closed so I knocked on her bathroom door. "Aye Aaliyah you want some from Ihop or something cause im hungry" "Im fine" was all she said but I ordered her some anyway cause I haven't seen her eat since we been at home. I went back downstairs and gang was now up I was kinda mad cause now I gotta order all these niggas food. I was still thinking about wtf is taking Aaliyah so long in the bathroom and wtf is that journal was about. I was knocked out of my thoughts by the doorbell ringing meaning the food was here. Me and gang was talking and laughing while eating. I saw Aaliyah out the corner of my eye looking at us. When she looked at us she put her head down and went back upstairs but me being me I didn't really care ha ass is just for publicity anyway.

When I saw all my uncles and Kentrell laughing I felt so outta place like I was ruining there little happy family just being here. I went back to my room cutting even more and deeper. By now I had cuts all over my legs stomach and arms. I put alcohol on all my cuts which burned but I liked the feeling at the same time.  I put on leggings and a big hoodie that covered all my cuts and hid my face.When I was done I went downstairs all eyes were on me. I hung my head down low before continuing to walk to the kitchen. "WELL GOODMORNING TO YO BALD HEADED ASS TOO" Kd yelled causing me to feel a little better and doing  small wave at all of them which they returned. After about 2 minutes of me eating in silence Kd yelled "I cant be quiet any longer¨ everybody mugged him before bursting out laughing. " Why are you so quiet? " Ben asked me I told him " Being quiet keeps me out the way and drama and just when you think you have me figured out a curve ball comes your way leaving you to have more and more things to try to figure me out." The whole room look at me like I was crazy and I just giggled lowly. " Well anyway y'all tryna go to the mall or sum cause Im bord asf" babyjoe asked making us all nod. On our way out all of them looked at me like I was out of my fucking mind. "Guh its bout 90 damn degrees outside and yo got on that hot ass hoodie" boomer told me. I mean I was hot but I didn't want them to see my cuts so I pretended I was cold and eventually they just left it alone. On the way there I was writing in my journal. Babyjoe was sitting behind me but he probably didn't care about what I was writing.

                                  

                                                               What I wrote in my journal.

Last night the demon that taunts me about my grandmas death came back. Im still running off those pills that keep me away but im honestly exhausted. I sat up thinking about how if me and my grandma didn't get into that argument I wouldn't have left and she wouldn't have had a seizure and I wouldn't have found her lifeless body laying on the grown. It was all my fault because it was from stress and I know I was stressing her out but I never wanted her to die because of me. Its eat me alive everyday how I never got to apologize to her. My mom only took care of me because she had to but my grandma actually loved me and she would be the person I would all if I needed anything. I loved that women with every bone in my body and I really just want to apologize to us. Besides that at Kentrell house today I felt so out f place like I was ruining there family.

Before I could finish we arrived at the mall I flipped my journal to where it was open but upside down so you couldn't see what I was writing. Everyone got out the car except babyjoe which was kind if weird he said he had an important phone call so I just brushed it off and entered the mall.

I stayed in the car because when Aaliyah was writing I read every word she wrote. I told her and gang I had an important phone call but I really stayed to take a picture of what she wrote to show it to kentrell and gang. It made me feel bad cause this lil girl had to see that and yet every time shes around when her hoodies not hiding her face she smiles like everything is okay. Then to make It worse she think she dont belong in the family which kinda makes me feel bad. I eventually I got out the car seeing Younngboy taking pictures with some fans and shit. I seen Aaliyah in a shoe store and tapped her. She turned around and I just hugged her she looked confused but hugged back anyway. " Blood or not you always family remember that" I whispered in her ear. She still looked confused. We broke away from the hug when we hear Ben loud ass coming in yelling "ITS RETARDED" then we continued shopping till we got tired.

We had just came from the mall we was all chillin at my house Aaliyah was doing god knows what in her room while we was sitting around playing 2k and I was sippin lean. Babyjoe and kd was playing when kd lost then babyjoe was like " Youngboy real talk you should try to be closer with that girl, she been through some real shit slime." I looked at him like he was slow. " Ha ass for a publicity stunt." I laughed but the room was silent. They was all staring at something behind me and when I looked Aaliyah was right there. Her face was just emotionless like she didn't even care like thats what she was expecting for me too say. I knew I had fucked up. She didn't even say anything she just went back upstairs. Everybody just looked at me . Babyjoe tossed me his phone and told me and gang to read it. It looked like a writing from her journal.  When I got done reading it I felt bad cause that lil girl already gong through this and then im adding on to her list of things thats breaking her. Aint no telling how much other shit that lil girl got going on but I know I fucked up.



A/N there is a lot of time skips but next she will be just kinda meeting the family and yeah anyways yeah.
