Chapter 9
Angela’s POV
It was finally Friday, Derrick had picked us up. I had been surprised when I saw a booster seat in his truck.
‘It’s good right?! Is it the right one?’ he asked me.
‘How would I know?’ I answered back
‘Oh, right. Well the girl from the store said it should be good, and safe.’ He said.
‘Okay, let me figure it out. It might take a few minutes.’ I said to him.
Once Amanda was safely in the booster seat, I sat in the back beside her and Derrick driving we were good to go.
After about 20 minutes, Derrick, Amanda and I were in front of Derrick’s new apartment. Amanda was behind me, she was always so scared but with the way Jesse had treated her I couldn’t blame her.
The front door opened and Derrick stepped away letting Amanda and I pass. I walked to the doorway with Amanda almost being my shadow.
I could see a little of the kitchen and living room. The living room looked big. I stepped into his apartment and started to look around. It was nice, I knew he had cleaned or this Carly chick had trained him since I always had to clean up after him which drove me nuts
‘Amanda, look around. It’s nice and big.’ I said, trying to turn my head as much as I could to see her, she was pressed against the back of my legs
I moved out of the way to let Derrick in, he smiled and then closed the door.
‘You girls thirsty or hungry?’ he asked us.
I looked at Amanda who she shook her head no, ‘We’re good, thanks.’ I said.
‘Do you want me to show you both around or…check it out on your own?’ he asked.
‘I don’t think we’ll get lost but do you mind if…on our own?’ I asked him, feeling bad. Here we were, staying with him and…
‘Of course not. Check it out. I’ll be in the kitchen fixing some food since I am hungry and I’ll probably still be there when you come back. If not, kitchen table.’ He said to me.
I nodded and brought my arm behind me and Amanda took my hand. I went into the hall and started to look.
I found his room, it was simple, very him. The walls were white his bed was black, and had very little bedroom furniture.
He hadn’t closed his door so I knew it was ok for me to look. I let Amanda look, both staying in the door way.
