Alya POV

      I woke up to my phone ringing. I look around to see I'm in bed so I assumed that Chris put me here. I look over to see him in a peaceful sleep. I look at my phone and Jas was calling. I picked up my phone and walked to the restroom as I feel pain all over my body and locked the door answering the call

         Phone Conversation

             "Hello" I said in a whisper.

"Heyyyy Bestie" Jas yelled in the phone making me jump

            "Why you so loud" I asked still whispering

"Girl why you whispering" she asked

              "Ummm... Chris sleep" I said but honestly I was scared no one has ever pulled a gun out on me. I wanted to tell her I wanted to cry but I chose her over me any day

"Oh you must've laid it down" she laughed out

              "Anyways how was your anniversary " I said

"Girl why am I in Jamaica. Trey said we staying down here for about a week. Even tho two day is for business but I ain't complaining" she laughed

           "Awww that's amazing girl. I can just imagine what he taking you for your birthday" I said laughing

"Right he said we going to Hawaii next month I'm so excited girl. Look at us we both in happy relationship and stuff" she said and I could hear her smiling.

              "Yea but Enjoy your trip girl and tell Trey I said hey I'm finna make some breakfast" I said

"Alright bye girl enjoy your man" she said hanging up

                    End

As I turn my phone off I silently cry. I cry because I feel like a was scammed. I don't sign up for this. Everytime I see happiness it's snatched. I looked in the mirror at the red mark on my left cheek and my black eye. I pull up my shirt to see a purple bruise on my rib lightly touching it make me cry a little harder and slide to the floor. As I cry I hear the knob wiggle making me get off the floor and wash my face and brush my teeth.

  "Lya baby you in there" Chris said outside the door making my heart speed up. I stayed silent for a while making him bang on the door. "Yea Yea I'm in here" I said opening the door.

   "I'm going to work I'll be back don't think about leaving or you know what I'll do" he said kissing my cheek and going to the bathroom closing the door. I slowly walk to the bed trying to stop the pain I was feeling.

   After about 30 minutes Chris finally left making me let out a shaky breath. I sit back and think about how Trey could protect Jas if I decided to left. That would bring them in the situation and I hate dragging people down with me. I can handled this I can just stay quiet.

   I open my MacBook to see if I had any assignments to due which I didn't. I go to my bag and grab my make up bag going to the bathroom. As I look in the mirror I start think of my mother. I dig to the bottom of the bag and pulled out powder foundation that I have used in years.

  I slowly applied it as I hear my phone ring. I walk to the room and see that Tyler was FaceTiming me. "Shoot" I said walking back to the bathroom facing my phone up and answering.

   "Hello" I said as I finish covering up my bruises. "Girl I FaceTimed you to see your face not no random ass ceiling" he laughed I finished the makeup and picked up the phone.

  "How you know I wanted you to see me" I laughed going to lay down trying to stop the urge to cry from the pain. "Girl whatever you know wanted to see me Bestie" he said as I laid down.

   "I know you didn't put on makeup to lay down" he stated looking at me. "I did so shut up" I said "you rarely even wear makeup so where you going" he asked "no where I just wanted to play around with it" I said

   After about 2 hours we got off the phone and I was back in silent and loneliness. After watching a couple of movies I looked and seen it was 7 already and I was hungry so I had a quick meal for me. I haven't had a appetite all day but now I'm starving. After I eat I take a shower and get ready for bed. I miss my dad, if he was here I would've never  experienced half the things I have. He was my protector my everything. I remember everything from his helping ride a bike to him beating up the boy's dad who was bullying me and Jas.

  I was snapping out of my thoughts when I heard the door open I looked up and it was Chris looking at me like I ran over his puppy making me nervous. "I come in my house to no food. Why you here if you not gone cook you useless" he said pushing me.

   I tried but my Temper is not allowing me to just sit back and be a punching bag. Once again we fighting. Where are his neighbors I know they hear us. "Bruh move forreal" I said punching him in dead in his nose making his nose bleed. He get up and go to the restroom as I try to go to sleep. How am I supposed to live like this.
