A'mari pov

I'm in my 3rd class. My last class is in 30 minutes. It's math. I'm very good at it

Mr fisher. A'mari go to the counselor office.

I put my pencil down and got up going to the counselor office. I sat in the chair looking at my lap

Ms Stanford. Is everything ok at home?

I nodded lying because I'm not ok mentally. And "home" isn't home to me.

Ms Stanford. All your teacher have been telling me that you look sad and emotionally drained.

I looked up

Ms Stanford. Are you being bullied?

I shook my head no

Ms standford. What's wrong?

I shook my head looking down at my hands

Ms standford. Ok you can go back to class.

I got up going to class

Montana pov

The school just called me about A'mari. They said it looks like she depressed or falling into depression. So I called trell and asked him about it

Trell. Yea?

Me. A'mari school called me

Trell. What they say?

Me. The Guidance counselor said it looks like she falling into depression

He didn't say anything

Me. Did you say something to her?

Trell. Say I haven't said shit to her since I told you what I did

Me. That's probably what's wrong with her

Trell. She always look emotional drained

Me. Mmhm

I hung up I don't know what to do so Imma leave that alone

After school hours

A'mari pov

I got in kentrell car. He looked mad. I ain't do nothing so he not mad at me. He drove to the House. I went straight to my room and started on my homework. I laid my head down finishing up on my work. My door opened. I looked seeing Montana. I looked back down at my homework.

Montana. What's wrong?

I looked at at him before looking back at my homework. He gotta be joking. Am I suppose to walk around with a smile on my face and be happy after I watched them kill my dad. I think not. And then I'm basically locked up. I can't leave this room without permission, I can't see my family unless he takes me to see them.

Montana. You not gone tell me what's wrong with you?

I shrugged I saw his arm move from the corner of my eye. I flinched

Montana. Alright

He got up leaving. I put my homework back in My book bag. My granny called me so I answered

Granny. What you want for your birthday

Me. I don't know

Granny. You still wanna apple watch?

I nodded

Auntie. You want a MacBook?

Me. Yes

They nodded. My birthday is the day after tomorrow

Auntie. You ok?

I nodded

Me. I love you to

She hung up. I put my face in a pillow and cryed myself to sleep.
