No Place Like Us (ON HOLD)

Today was the day Sae got discharged. Messiah was there for her everyday making sure she eats little by little, take her pain medication n prenatal pills. Wilson didn't come to see her not once. He hadn't even called. Messiah convinced her to move out. He said he would protect her with his life n he meant tht shit. She was scared but she was going to do it. But first she was going to tell him she was pregnant n see his reaction. A million thoughts ran through her head. Will he be excited? Will he wanna keep it? Would he make her abort it? Would he deny the child? But one question played constantly. Would her love her again? She felt stupid jus thinking it but she couldn't help it. She felt as though she wasn't enough.

Jus thinking of his reaction made her all kinds of stressed. She was shedding hair by the day. This is the type of stress her doctors wanted her to avoid.

They were now on the way back to her apartment. She kept fiddling wit her fingers n she would barely talk. Messiah noticed n grabbed her hand wit his free one still keeping his eye on the road. She instantly relaxed but her heart still pumped through her chest. She didn't know how she didn't notice her pregnancy. After finding out she looked at her stomach in the mirror to see tht it was in fact protruding jus a little. She felt so stupid. How could she not notice.

They got to the apartment and she didn't see his car anywhere in the parking lot. Good. She thought. "U want me to come wit u?" She turned to him wit fear in her eyes. She wanted to say yes but wat if Wilson came in while she was packing her stuff? N seen Messiah. He would kill her. But he would still prolly kill her anyway without messiah being in the room. "Yes please" she said jus above a whisper. She had barely been talking but whenever she did it came out as a whisper. They walked up to the apartment she went to the hall way closet tht contained her suitcases.  Messiah took the suitcases from her n followed her to the room.

She was almost done packing wen she realized she was forgetting something. She peeked outside her spay to make sure Wilson wasn't coming n went to her neighbor a couple doors down. She knocked on the door n an older woman opened it wit a smile. "Hey baby, I haven't seen you come by in a minute. Come in come in" the older lady rushed out. Sae was like a daughter to her. "Thank you Ms. Eda but I can't stay long. I just came for my things before I go" "oh suga u leaving tht man? Finally thank you Jesus. U kno I was tired of that man hittin on u, I outta give him a nice beating" Ms. Eda rambled as she went to her room. Ms. Eda knew everything tht went on but Sayorah would ask— no beg her not to say anything. Sayorah stood behind her as she opened the wall in her closet. Sayorah had been putting money to the side for some time now, about 5 years. She knew she couldn't trust Wilson so she didn't wanna chance leaving it in her apartment nor in the person directly across from them apartment. N she trusted Ms. Eda, Wilson didn't kno about her which was even better. "Whoo Chile here it is" Ms. eda said standing back up rubbing her hands down her sides, she was getting old and her hips n knees weren't too gud. Sayorah had a little over a million saved. She barely spent money, she saved almost everything she had leaving enough for food and gas. She put all the money in the duffel bag tht was in the wall with the money, and she gave $100,000 to Ms. Eda for her hip replacement and for whatever else she needed. Ms. Eda tried to deny the money but Sae was in a rush n convinced Ms. Eda too kept it. More like thanked Ms. Eda n walked out leaving the money in the older lady hands. It was a mean thing to say but she knew Ms. eda wouldn't run fast enough to catch her.

She got back in her apartment and was putting the duffel bag in one of her big suitcases jus to not take any chances. Messiah was zipping up the rest of her stuff and w.e they were forgetting he would buy for her. As messiah took two bags down to the car Sayorah stayed and got some stuff from their bathroom as quickly as she could n put it in her purse. She was walking out the bathroom wen she almost ran into Wilson. She stared at him as he stared intensely at her. "Where u goin?" He asked walking towards her. She took a couple steps back "I ASKED U A QUESTION" he yelled making her jump n continue to back up. "I- I'm pregnant" she said first hoping tht would convince him not to hit her wen he didn't say nothing she continued "and I'm leaving" Wilson laughed in her face n took a couple steps back. He rubbed his beard "u leaving me" he said chuckling still. Sayorah tried getting closer to the living room, all she did was nod in response "U LEAVING ME?" He ran towards her n she ran backwards hoping she didn't fall. He grabbed a vase n threw past her head. "U NOT GOIN NOWHERE U HEAR ME?" She didn't answer he got closer n started to choke her "DO U HEAR ME" she flinched closing her eyes not wanting to cry in front of him. He wasn't worth it. "AYE" Wilson snapped his head to the side to see Messiah standing in the doorway "LET HER GO NIGGA" he said pulling out a gun from his waistband. "This is who u leaving me for?" He looked at her n squeezed harder then laughed. He was taking too long to let her go so Messiah ran towards him pulling him off her n throwing him to the ground. "U like hitting on females let's see how u do wit a real nigga....GET TF UP BITCH" Messiah yelled, he was angry. It scared Sayorah n made her wet at the same damn time. Her hormones was already going crazy. All of a sudden Wilson was up and tackling messiah. Messiah punched his back n knees him in the stomach before throwing Wilson off him n punching him in the face before he could even react. This made Wilson angry he was getting his ass handed to him. He deserved it tho. He lunged at messiah again but messiah was too fast n laying blows before he could even blink. Wilson was landing a little hits here n there but not as deadly as messiahs hits. "SIAH!!" Sayorah yelled she wanted it to be over n she didn't want him to get in trouble. She jus wanted to go. By now they were on the floor tussling. "SIAH!!" She yelled crying. Messiah landed one gud blow n stood up n started kicking Wilson in the guts. "MESSIAH" he finally stopped n looked at her. He seen her crying n went to hug her immediately. He was so angry he couldn't even think. He hated Wilson wit every fiber of his being. "I jus wanna go" she whispered "ok let's go. I'm sorry" he said looking at her. He quickly grabbed the rest of her bags. They were almost at the door wen they heard groaning. "th-this ain't over Sayorah" he said tauntingly. Messiah pulled out his gun to make n Wilson froze he smiled menacingly even tho he really wanted to shit his pants. They ran out the building n to the car. He quickly put her stuff in the car n wen he knew she was safely in he sped off to his home.
It was quiet for a while until he spoke "I'm sorry I had to see tht" he said gripping the wheel looking at the blood on his knuckles. Sayorah grabbed his hand n looked at him "thank you" she said before letting go n looking away.
