"This is long overdue." My mom sighed as she sat on the edge of my bed.
"I'm gonna let you outside okay?" She said and I lit up.
"You serious?" I smiled.
"Yes but you have to be careful. You bruise and bleed very easily. I don't want you getting hurt." She said and I nodded.
"I'm not."
"Promise?" She asked.
"I promise." I hugged her.
Alright so this really like my first time outside in a while so I don't know what to wear. My closet isn't really filled with a bunch of outside clothes. Mostly night clothes. I looked through everything and all I found was sweatpants and a white shirt.
"That boy are here." She said and I rushed downstairs.
This is the most energy I had.
"Oh shit. I mean my bad. I just ain't think she was really gone let you out." He said.
"Remember what I told you." She pointed at him and he nodded.
"I ain't think she was gonna let you out so I don't got shit planned but whatever you wanna do we can." He said.
"I would like to know your name first." I smiled.
"Amare." He said.
"Adaliyah." I said and we shook hands.
"Can we go to the park?" I asked.
I really wanted to go to the beach but I felt like that would be too much to ask.
"Whatever you want." He said.
We walked to the park since it wasn't that far.
"Why you don't come outside? I always seen you walk into the house and never come out." He asked.
"I never really feel like it." I lied.
He looked at me like he knew I was lying but decided to leave it alone.
