"Tell yo' bitches, stop playing on my phone." Was the first words Miami Paterson spoke to Darion. He was surprised to say the least and couldn't help the husky chuckle that left his lips afterwards. Miami wasnt a shy girl AT ALL. She simply just chose when she wanted to talk. She had been a mute victim, since the tragic death of her father Marlen Paterson; A retired business man from the Bronx. Marlen was her best friend and more. His death did something to Miami which put an invisible shell around her. She was a hard one to crack, and you'd be surprised if she even uttered a simple 'hey' to you.  The only smile you'd see on her face was the cause of 3 year old Malachi Paterson; an autistic child Maimi adopted. He was her pride and joy. Will she give Darion a chance? Will he crack her shell or just give up all together.
"Fuck it, its obvious you don't wanna be saved." Miami shrugged, unbothered.
"Niggas come and go." She was numb to everything.
