Roommates

16

Jayla banged on the front door of the trap. The door flung open and there were at least 12 guns pointed at her.

She pushed past all of them and ran into Kidds office. Nobody stopped her because they knew exactly who she was.

She bust into Kidds office to see him sitting behind his desk, working. He looked up at her and rushed over to her.

She hugged him tight and cried in his chest. He hugged her tight and rubbed her back. "Baby what happen?" he asked, pulling away and looking at her. Her nose was bleeding along with her lip and had blood stains on her shorts.

"Khalil r***d me" she cried. Kidd became numb all over. "He hit me then dragged me upstairs and r***d me" she dropped to her knees. Kidd picked her up and laid her on the couch in is office. He covered her up.

"I'll be right back baby." he said before kissing her forehead. She pulled at his shirt and looked at him with pleading eyes.

"No, please don't leave" she begged.

"I'll have D stay with you but I have to go get this nigga iight? I swear I'll be back in no more than an hour ok?" she nodded. Kidd kissed her lips and walked out his office.

"Aye man, that b***h nigga Khalil r***d my girl. We about to roll out to my crib and finish this nigga iight? I want the twins to come with me" he said loading his gun.

The twins nodded and Kidd called over D, one of the 3 guys he trusted. "Jayla in the office sleep. She got a blanket over her and still shaken up so keep an eye on her"

"I got you" D said. He walked into the office and prayed over Jayla while she slept. Jayla and D have met and he saw her as a little sister. It's hard not to, she was just so innocent and looked like she needed to be protected.

Kidd and the twins, Cj and Kk, pulled up to Kidds house. They walked in and up to Jayla room, where Khalil was still asleep.

Kidd chuckled and shook his head. He walked over to Khalil and hit him with the bud of his gun. Khalil jumped up, 3 guns in his face. "Wake yo b***h ass up" Kidd said.

"Nigga wassup?" Khalil said holding his jaw. Kidd ignored him. The twins dragged Khalil into the car and tied his arms behind his back.

They carried Khalil into the trap. Bringing Khalil into the torture room, Jayla walked out Kidds office and locked eyes with Khalil. He smirked and puckered his lips at her, before being dragged into the room.

Jayla fisted the blanket she had over her and quickly turned around, walking back into the office. Kidd followed.

Jayla sat on the couch, criss cross. Her eyes were closed and her breathing became heavy. She fisted the blanket, clutching it then releasing and clutching again. She did that over and over until her breathing became normal.

The whole time, Kidd rubbed her back to calm her. He pulled her into his lap, her back on his chest and hugged her tight.

"Everything is ok baby" he said softly. She turned around so she was straddling him.

Jayla hugged him tighter and breathed in his scent. She felt so safe in his arms, like nothing could hurt her.

"I love you ma"

"I love you too" she said softly. Soon she fell asleep in his arms. He laid her on the couch and wrapped the blanket on her. He walked out the office and locked the door.

He walked into the torture room "Wassup my nigga" Khalil said smiling.

"Khalil, you good? You just r***d my girl, now you smiling in my face and s**t?"

Khalil shrugged "Life goes on" he replied. "Besides, she knew she loved every second of it"

Kidd didn't take his pills so he couldn't control what we did next. He blacked out and the last thing he saw before leaving the room was Khalil's head on one side of the room and his arms and legs in the other.

He walked into his office, and showered. He dressed in basketball shorts and a wife beater.

He walked into the office to see Jayla awake and staring at a wall. A plain white wall. "Baby" he called softly. She didn't answer. He couldn't help but think she was going through depression again.

He walked closer to her "Jay" again, ignored. He touched her shoulder and she jumped. "Baby you ok? What's wrong?"

She looked scared but when she looked up at him, it went away. "Hold me please" she said softly. After handing her a shirt, he sat on the couch and pulled her back into his lap.

He held her tight and rocked back and forth. "I'm so sorry I wasn't there to protect you Jay. It seems like I either hurt you myself or never there to protect you when another niggas hurt you" Kidd buried his face in Jayla's neck and squeezed her a little tighter.

"Stop Ky, don't blame yourself." she said softly. "Just promise from now on you'll be there for me like I'm there for you"

Kidd looked at her "I promise, I got you ma" he pecked her lips.

"And I got you baby" she said pecking his lips. They smiled at each other, then the office door opened. D walked in.

"Wassup B" Kidd said dapping up D.

"Wassup, hey Jay. How you feelin?" he asked. She got off Kidd's lap and shrugged.

"I've been better" she replied.

"Keep yo head up baby girl and any nigga that think they can f**k wit you, call me. I'll handle them real quick, forreal" he said getting hype.

"D" Jayla called.

"Cause ion like when b***h niggas think they can f**k with fam"

"D"

"Fuckin p***y niggas hittin fem-"

"D!!" he stopped talking and looked at Jayla.

"Huh?"

"I'll call you" she said laughing. D nodded and chuckled.

"Oh and Kidd, the mess cleaned up in the T" D said referring to the body and blood in the torture room.

Kidd nodded before getting up and walking to his desk to finish what he started.

D and Jayla started talking snd laughing. "Then the hoe had the nerve to say can I put my finger in your ass?" Jayla bust out laughing. "I wanted to chop her in the throat" he said shaking his head.

After the laughing stopped Jayla spoke "Why you refer to girls as hoes?"

"I refer to hoes as hoes. If I'm with a women, I refer to her as a women" he answered. Jayla nodded.

"But why not refer to hoes as females? Hoes is a degrading word"

"Well Jayla to answer your question, to me a female or women is someone who carries themselves as such. If hoes stop being hoes then I'll stop using the word" D chuckled along with Jayla.

"Iight I'm done baby" Kidd said as he cleared his desk off. Jayla got off the couch and hugged D. Kidd dapped D."Slide through later, Jayla making spaghetti"

"No I'm not" Kidd looked at her and she smiled. "Guess I am"

"Iight I'll check with La on that" he said referring to his wife.

Kidd pulled into the driveway and walked inside, with Jayla stopped in the doorway. "What? " Kidd asked.

"I can't" she whispered. She couldn't go into her room, where Khalil r***d her. She couldn't lay in the same bed. Kidd understood what she meant.

He walked over to the couch, Jayla stood by the door. Everything was good until she stepped foot back into the house. "Baby tell me what you want"

She wanted to say get a new house but that would have been to much. Kidd stood up and walked in front of her. "Jay you gotta talk to me. Whatever you want, tell me ma. I can't read your mind"

"Can we get a new place?" she asked.

"As in move out of this house and into another? " he asked back. She nodded. "Iight, find a place in the area." he said simply.

"Really baby?" she asked surprised and excited. He nodded and smiled at her. "Ok so what I look for?"

"Uhh, just make sure the place has more than 4 bedrooms and more than 3 baths. A office for me and a driveway and garage" Jayla nodded and kissed his lips.

She grabbed her laptop and walked into the garage. She started looking for houses then she found one. It had every Kidd wanted, plus a indoor pool, stainless steel appliances, and every room was huge. The house was spacious.

She walked through the house looking for Kidd. "In here" he yelled from his office.

She walked in and put the laptop in front of him. He pulled her into his lap, and wrapped his arms around her. "I like it. We'll go look at it tomorrow. Iight?" Jayla smiled and nodded.
