Hey Guys I'm so sorry I'm updating a lot of my stories so the next chapter for this story should be out next week. Once again I'm sorry to have kept you guys waiting so long.
I only own Kiran
Chapter 2
I wore a black dress and straighten my wild curls I put on little make up. I'm really not sure if I can handle this but I know I have to be there for Ms. Evelyn. I'm not sure how I feel about seeing Bobby again. But I know I just want to get it all over with.
I got to the church and sat next to Jerry and his family. I don't know if Bobby, Jack and Angel are coming since I haven't seen them and I didn't ask. When the service is over I walk with Taylor, Camille and the girls in the front. I didn't notice them until we they got to the grave site but I sat with Taylor in the middle. When they went up in front while the casket was being lowered I stayed in my seat. I don't think they want me up there. Ms. Evelyn was like a mom to me and helped me out of a terrible situation but that was the boy's time to say goodbye. Taylor and I walk to our cars before anyone notices us.
"Do you want me to come with you when you go over to Jerry's" she asks me and I shakes my head.
"No but thank you for coming here and being with me" Taylor gives me a small smile.
"No problem Kiran, I'll see you later" we hug each other before getting in our cars and leaving. I pull up at Jerry's house not long after and I notice Jack out front.
"Hey Jackie" I says walking up behind him and he turns around and hugs me.
"Hey Kiran, still short I see and what happened to your brown hair?" he asks as he pulls away looking at my dirty blonde hair. I shrug and give him a smile.
"Change Jackie, that's what happens when you decide to be a huge rock star and not come home" He smiles back at me and hugs me again.
"Man I missed you Kiki" he says referring to the nickname the boys gave me long ago.
"I missed you too Jackie" we pull away and he gets out a cigarettes. "Are you ok Jack?"
"Yeah, you want one?" he asks holding the box out to me and I stare it for a while and shake my head.
"No I quit" It was hard not to reach and get one but I know I didn't need it. He shrugs and lights one and I was lost in thought about the last time I hung out with Jackie. It was right before he left.
Flashback
I was sitting on the front steps of the Mercer house smoking a cigarette.
"Hey" I turn and see Jack.
"Hey" I say back as he sits next to me.
"What are you doing I thought you were trying to quit smoking?" he asks as he takes the cigarette from my hands and takes a drag. I exhale.
"I am it's just I'm stressed so I really need it"
"Why what's got you stressed?" he asks handing it back to me.
"Everything, school, my mom and her boyfriend, your brother"
'He'll come back Kiran" I sigh and inhale the smoke.
"Yeah it's been a year Jack no phone call I doubt he's coming back" he doesn't say anything and I look over at him.
"So when are you leaving?" I ask
"In a few minutes" he says and I nod.
"Oh" I put my cigarette down and stand up and pull him into a hug. "Well I'm going to miss you"
"I'll miss you too Kiran, you going to be okay here?" I pull away from him as his ride pulls up.
"I'll be fine Jackie now go be a rock star" I say as I push him a little. He smiles and I smile back as he walks down the porch and to the car. I stood on the porch and watched as another special person in my life leaves me behind.
End of Flashback
"It's good to see you again Jackie" I say.
"Have you seen him yet" Jack asks and I shake my head.
"No I haven't" He nods and you know those moments when you talk about someone they show up that's exactly what happened when Bobby walked over to us. It was different to see him after all these years and for him to be so close there was so many things I wanted to say to him but I didn't.
"Hey" he says as he pulls Jack into a hug and he hugs him back. "You alright you know I love you" and Jackie nods and he turns to me
"Hey Kiran" I look at him for a while taking in everything that I can remember and everything that has changed.
"Hey Bobby" he looks me over as well.
"Are you ok?" I nod not trusting my voice at all. He nods back look between me and Jack.
"Come on let's go see Jerry" he turns and walks up Jerry's driveway and Jack and I follow. I just have to make it through this day my inner thoughts say and a long day it shall be.
"Hey Kiran" I'm brought back to reality when I feel Jerry hug me. I smile and hug him back.
"Hey Jer" He turns and looks at Bobby.
"Do you remember when I built that treehouse and you the shit down?" he asks and Bobby sighs with a smile. "Boy I wanted to kick your ass"
"Don't worry your house is brick I aint gonna burn it down" Bobby assures him as he walks to the door.
"Well now yeah, oh yeah and no smoking in my house man so you're going to have to put that out" he says to Jackie. I smile and walk past him inside. I talk with a few people I know and they tell me there sorry about Ms. Evelyn. I was at the back door watching Bobby and Jackie interact with Jerry's daughters Daniela and Amelia. I smile at the thought of Bobby being a dad and I shake my head at the same thought thinking that it could've been us. I look over and notice Lt Green and a man with him I don't recognize. They talk with Jack and Bobby for a awhile before they walk to the door. Jack and Bobby walk by me and I turn and look at Green.
"Hey Kiran, How you holding up?" he asks me as he pulls me into a hug.
"Hey Terrance, I'm hanging in there I guess" I say with a shrug and I look at the stranger behind him.
"Kiran, this is Detective James Fowler" I nod at him as he looks me over.
"I hope you guys catch this son of a bitch" I say to them and Green nods.
"We will Kiran don't worry" I nod I knew I could trust Terrance because I knew him grew up in the neighborhood with him. But I wasn't so sure about his partner or anyone in Detroit PD for that matter. I walk away and find a seat on the couch and waited until everyone left and I went with the boys to Evelyn's house. I parked behind Jerry and Bobby right behind me. We got out a walk up to the house.
"So shit, Bobby what have you been up too?" Jackie asks
"Oh I don't know Jack I'm a fucking college professor what do you think I've been doing" He repiles and I smile at their back and forth.
"I doubt that" Jackie says
"Same old Bobby" Jerry says and we walk up the steps to the porch.
"Ya'll aint right leaving me out in the cold like this" I hear from the dark corner and Jerry turns on the lights and I see Angel sitting in the corner. The guys hug him as they get on him about missing Ms. Evelyn's funeral.
"Kiki, how long has it been?" he asks picking me up into a hug and I smile and hug him tight.
"Too long punk, you look good" I say and he smiles and let's go.
"So do you" he says and I smile and turn away as Jerry opens the door we all get quiet. Angel heads straight to the kitchen and I walk into the living room with Jerry and sit on the couch taking in all in I hear Bobby and Jack go upstairs. It was so weird being in the house and she wasn't there. A few stray tears fall down my face and after sitting downstairs for a while I decide to go check on Jack. I stood at the door by his room he had his guitar.
"Can I come in?" I ask and he nods and I make my way inside and sit on his bed at the end by his feet. I push my back to the wall as my feet hung a little off the side. I was listening to Jack play a few notes and I look up and see Bobby walk in the room he sits on the floor right in front of my feet.
"You've been crying in here you little fairy?" he teases Jack.
"Leave it alone man" he says as he stops playing and starts to roll a cigarette.
"How's the hospital thing going Kiran?" he asks me which I was a little surprised at.
"Good"
"Too weird in mom's room?" Jack asks and Bobby groans and leans his head back on me.
"Oh man too weird, It's crazy everything exactly the same she hasn't changed nothing in this house" Jerry appears at the door and smiles at us.
"Look at ya'll" he says.
"What?" Bobby asks
"Nothing I'm just happy to see you, Happy to see my brothers that's all"
"I'm happy to see you too Jerry"
"I guess I can stop by the store and get a turkey or something so we can have a thanksgiving dinner" I say and Jerry nods.
"Yeah we could at least act like were a real family, Mom would like that" he says we all take in what he says and we see Angel coming out of his room.
"Where do you think you're going?" Jeremiah asks him.
"It's a little heavy in there I'm just go outside and get me a little air" Angel says and Bobby cracks up laughing.
"You're full of shit man, you can smell that ass from down the street huh" Bobby says and we all start smiling.
"What are you talking about?" Angel asks
"What you mean what, Come on you know exactly what we're talking about with la vida loca"
"Aint nobody going to go get no la vida loca nothing" he denies
"She got a boyfriend" I say with a smirk.
"She got a boyfriend, she got hard dick in her right now she's screaming somebody else's name and the last thing she's thinking about is your black ass, leave it alone man" Bobby says and Jack and I bust out laughing.
"I can't even believe ya'll coming at me with this craziness I'm standing here tell ya'll im not going to see that girl and I'm not" he says and walks down the stairs and out the door. We all finishing laughing and shaking our heads at Angel's antics. I look at the time on my watch and it was get pretty late.
"Well I better get going, I'll be over here early tomorrow with the turkey and stuff and Jack your going to help me cook" I say and he smiles and nods I lean over and give him a quick kiss on the cheek. I get off the bed and slide past Bobby. I hug and kiss Jerry on the cheek and before I can make it out the door I hear.
"I'll walk you down Kiran" I look over at Bobby and he starts to stand up.
"It's ok Bobby you don't have too" I say but he was already waiting for me to start walking. I inhale and I wave goodbye to Jack and Jerry and walk down the stairs with Bobby behind me. I was a little nervous we've barley talked all day, I could only imagine what was about to happen now. We get outside and get to my car and I turn to him.
"Thanks for walking me to my car" I say and he nods and as I turn away I feel him grab my hand and turn me back to him.
"Kiran I'm sor-" he starts but I cut him off.
"No Bobby don't you don't have to say that I'm over it" he shakes his head.
"Kiran-"
"I'll see you tomorrow Bobby" I say as I turn a get in my car I drive away with tears in my eyes and I shake my head and blink them back. I've done enough cry for one day and I'm over it get it together your Kiran Sophia you're not going back down this road not with him.
"I'm over it….I'm over it, it's done…" who are you trying to convince him or yourself my inner thoughts say to me but I wasn't sure….
