"MALACHI IS BACK!?" Tally and Celina both scream at me in the middle of the mall. Everyone is too busy to notice, but I covered their mouths quickly.
"Can y'all shut up? Damn, loud ass mouths..." I sighed. "But yes. He's back."
"Do you think he's enrolled in NYU?" Tally asked.
"He could be. But I don't want to think about that. If my dad finds out he'll kill me." I mumbled. They both nodded.
"Oh yeah...Adam is pissed about something, I came back to him staring at the wall with a bruised hand. I wanted to say something but I didn't want to be punched.." I added.
"Sis he ain't gon fight you! I'll kick his ass!" Celina said, we all laughed and continued to walk around.
Celina and Tally wandered into Victoria Secret so I decided to wander into a new store that looked like my fashion. The clothes looked really nice, it had that weird model-like feel to it.
"Hello welcome to Vision!! Wait are you one of the models??" Someone said, I looked up to a giant ass poster of me.
...with Malachi.
"Uh..y-yeah that's me.." I said, trying not to scream bloody murder and run out of the store.
"Well it's so nice to meet you! I'm such a big fan, you take beautiful pictures! I really love this other picture you modeled!" The lady said.

I looked good!
"Thank you!" I said with a fake grin, I turned to leave, and I saw someone looking at me. I furrowed my eyebrows a bit and looked back at them.
The person got up and started walking towards me. He got closer and smiled at me a bit. My eyebrows furrowed a bit further.
"...Hi." I said.
"Ah er...umm Hello." He said. "My name is Adrian."
"Hi I'm Era..." I said, in a confused tone.
"I work at NYU, I'm the new Criminal Justice Professor." He said, he stuck his hand out. "Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you but it would be rude of me to say your first name..." I stated back. He nodded slowly.
"Ah umm...I'm Mr. Calloway." He said, rubbing his index finger and thumb on his beard.
"Dad."
A boy started walking up to him, his demeanor was kind of low. It looked like he didn't want to be at the mall.
"Give me a second Darin, I'm talking to a student." He snapped quickly.
"Dad let's go NOW!" He snapped back. Mr. Calloway snapped his head back at him and narrowed his eyes.
He turned back to me. "Nice to meet you Era, I have to go now. See you later."
I nodded as he followed the child into the crowd of people. I was left there with a puzzled look on my face.
Why did he make an effort to meet me?
I shook it off and went to find my friends.
"Lord if I'm dragged into drama again...."
🌻
I gave it all, and you gave me shit, love.
Figures.
I laid on my side with my pillow in my arms, trying to breathe through the tears that ran down my face. I was torn, sad, and full of misery.
How could he come back?
How could he break my heart by his sole purpose of being here?
Why does he want to torture my soul all over again?
Questions.
No answers.
Just a broken heart and a cold soul.
I get a knock on my door. I wipe my tears quickly and get up. I go to the mirror and check my face. My eyes are still red and puffy, but I'll still answer the door.
"Hey it's Reggie, someone's here for you Ezra-"
"It's just Adam, who is it?"
"See for yourself."
I opened the door to someone I couldn't recognize. I raised my eyebrows a bit.
"Hi...My name is Malachi, can I talk to you for a second??" The guy said.
"Sure..."
He walked in, very surprised of his surroundings, looking at everything with Ezra's name on it.
"What do you want?" I said. I was not in the mood for a long conversation, I want to cry in peace.
"Well I'm an...old friend of Ezra's. I just want you to tell him that I'm looking for him and want to take him out again." He said.
I turned to him slightly. "...ok."
He smiled really big. "Thanks man!" He walked back out with Reggie. Reggie closed the door without making eye contact.
