Part One - Tyla's Story.








Chapter 1 ..Pussy hungry..
His hands moved slowly towards my trousers. "Stop it please! You know I’m only 14" I screamed. "Shut up or I’ll kill you" he spat, I couldn't believe what was happening to me and who was doing it. He got me on the floor and I squealed in pain as he entered me. He laughed in enjoyment of seeing me in pain, it seemed to last forever then he got up and had the cheek to say "Thanks for the nice time yeah, later!" as he walked out of the alleyway and across the road to the number 78 bus stop. I just laid there scared, shocked, and alone. I finally got the courage to get up and ring someone anyone, I looked through my phone book and rang my older brother, Tysharn, to come and get me. The last words I can remember him saying to me was "You need me sis, then call me init" so that's what I decided to do. I pressed the dial button as the rest of my body shook in shock. "What’s up now, you ran outta money and you want some New Look jeans or something?" he said cheekily, but I didn’t need this I just burst out in tears down the phone then he realised that I wasn't in New Look and I didn't want any new jeans. "Tyla what's happened man tell me…if someone’s hurt you their dead." he continued. I couldn't bring myself to tell him what had happened or who did it because he wouldn't believe me anybody would. I told him where I was and he said "Be there in 10, I’m in JD so I’m near there" and put the phone down. I just tried making myself look like nothing had happened and that I was fine, but it was useless I had mascara runny eyes, my hair looked like it did when I just woke up even after I’d tried brushing it. Just as I’d buttoned up my coat and got my handbag my brother came running round the corner and down the alleyway. As soon as my head hit his chest and he put his protective arms around me I burst into tears again, and this time it was because I knew I was safe, I was with my older brother. "What’s happened Ty?" he asked me "I-I g-got raped" I stuttered. "WHATTTT?! WHO DID THIS, I SWEAR NOBODY HURTS MY BABY SISTER AND GETS AWAY WITH IT" he shouted. I could tell by his facial expression he was overly angry. "It w-was k-k-Kyle, your best friend k-Kyle" I said still stuttering. "NAHHHHH! I BEEN WATCHING HIM WATCHING YOU STILL! MY MANS DEAD TONIGHT!" he shouted punching the wall. We started walking to the bus stop to go home, it was hard to keep up with my brother because he was angry so he was pacing towards the bus stop. As we were on the bus my brother saw Kyle.
Chapter 2 ..Don't fuck with my sister..
We got off the bus and Tysharn ran up to him and pulled a knife out of his pocket and stabbed Kyle right in his side "You and me was like family, you was my main man and you go and do them things to my baby sister. Nahh things don't run like that" he shouted kicking Kyle as hard as he could. "You tell anyone about me getting you, I’ll make sure you get shot, pussyhole." He said as he turned to take my hand and walk me home. As soon as I got home my mum was in the kitchen making mine and Tysharn’s dinner and washing the dishes from the morning’s breakfast. "Alright sweetheart? How was school?" she asked me. I lied and told her everything was okay, she then caught sight of Tysharn and said "Tysharn! Your tutors been on the phone to me again today, why did she smell marijuana on you?" she asked furiously. "Mum, mum, mum I done told that woman that it's for a science project. 'The effects of weed on a 16 year olds body' no need to worry mum." he said with a big smile and kissed her. She just tutted and served our dinner, that’s why I love my older brother he can talk his way out of most things. I remembered about today’s events so I watched Simpsons with my older brother and then took an early night. I just lay in my bedroom staring at the ceiling thinking about what had happened. I can hear running footsteps on the stairs and my mum comes crashing through the door "Why didn't you tell me sweetheart?" she said tears in her eyes. I realised then that my brother had told her what had happened to me "I'm sorry mum, I just didn't want to hurt you" I said starting to cry "It's okay Tyla, its okay" she said hugging me. She agreed to let me stay off school until I felt that I could go back. Two months passed of work being sent home from school for me and I doing it in my room and I decided that I didn't want to hide anymore from anyone I decided that on Monday I would go back to school. Monday came and I woke up and had a sudden urge to be sick I ran as fast as I could to the bathroom. My mum woke up looking half asleep, hair a mess, and came into the bathroom yawning.
Chapter 3 ..Baby boom..
"TylaTyla, I’ll support you" she said with her warm smile. My brother arose from his sleep and walked past the bathroom then walked back spotted the test and me and mum both crying in each others arms, "NAHHH! Please tell me it's not what I think it is" he said rage in his eyes staring at my stomach. "Tysharn you’re going to be an uncle. Please calm down sweetheart your sister, she doesn't need this" Mum said calmly. Tysharn looked at me the rage melting away and tears coming to his eyes "Everything’s going to be alright sis" he said reaching me for a hug. I went into my room and lay on my bed, but then I thought. There's still one more person I need to tell, Kyle. The last I’d heard of Kyle was that he'd come out of hospital and moved away for a bit. I got my laptop and signed in on MSN and looked for him. When he attacked me my brother told me to change my number and delete him from my contact list, but I never got round to it. I sent him an offline message telling him to ring me ASAP. I went to sleep and I had a nightmare about that night, I woke up sweating like I’d just run 2 miles.
Chapter 4 ..Talking to the enemy..
Still I rise, still I fight, still I might crack a smile, keep my eyes on the prize, see my haters tell ‘em hi, one day you’ll remember this, one day I’ll remember this, nothing I ever do is for you my phone was ringing I looked at it, and it said withheld I answered it all the same "Hello" I said "YO WHAT DID GYAL WANT?" Kyle shouted down the phone "I-i-i" I started to stutter "SPIT IT OUT MAN, MAN HAVE GOT PLACES TO BE YANOE!" he continued "I'm pregnant with your baby" I said starting to cry "NAHHH MANN WHY LIE TYLA?" he shouted down the phone "DON'T YOU DARE CALL ME A LIAR YOUR THE ONE THAT CAUSED THIS NOT ME!" I shouted getting angry. Tysharn came in my room looking worried "Give me the phone Ty" he whispered to me so Kyle wouldn't hear "YO DONT YOU COME GIVING MY SISTER GRIEF INIT, YOU’RE THE BIGGEST PUSSYHOLE!" Tysharn shouted down the phone. "You best watch your back init, your sisters going to pay for shanking me!" Kyle said and locked off the phone. I started to cry like I’d never cried before, Tysharn tried to hug me but I pushed him away he gave me a hurt look and walked towards the door. "I'll protect you sis I’m sorry" he said and walked out the room. I collapsed on my floor in tears, this was all I needed to be pregnant and someone wanting revenge on me. I thought about what I was going to do about this situation, about Kyle, about Tysharn and most importantly the baby I was going to be holding in a matter of 7 months. I decided to go on MSN and see what it was saying. My best friend Jamilah was on. I needed someone to talk to so I opened up a conversation with her but she beat me to it "WHERE YOU BEEN KO-D?!" she asked me "B come round mine please I need to talk to you urgently" I replied "Alright, you want any McDonalds bringing? Cause my dukes will drop me off init" she asked me "Alright then bring me my usual yeah" I said "Alright b, see you later yeah kool 1 xx" she said and logged off. I laid on my bed for about 10 minutes then went out into the hallway and checked myself over in the mirror, I looked like a jezzi no make up on my face my curly brown hair up in a ponytail but I didn't care I had bigger things to worry about.
Chapter 5 ..My Ko-D Jamilah..
Just as I’d finished getting myself to look presentable, well decent, there was the famous Jamilah knock at my door, she knocks 5 times then a pause then another knock then another pause then a final knock, PLEASE DON'T ASK! It's a best friend thing. I opened the door and Jamilah stood there ,with the food in one hand and the drinks and mcflurrys in a drinks holder in the other hand, wearing her black mac coat, white skinny jeans, black dolly shoes and a white top. She had her usually curly brown hair straight for once and a white alice band securing it into place. She looked flyyyyy. "WOII YOU LOOK ILL!" she said looking alarmed "Mmmmm" I grumbled and stepped backwards so she could come in. "Hello Mrs Reynolds" Jamilah shouted to my mum (she can put on the biggest "I’m innocent" act to parents which is a good thing cause of the things we get up to) "Jamilah call me Charlotte, how many times do I have to tell you" my mum said calling out from the kitchen as she was washing the dishes. "You girls be good now, and I’m going out in 10 minutes to your Auntie Sarah’s Tyla, so be responsible please darling and your brother should be back soon anyway" Mum carried on "Okay mum" I said walking up the stairs Jamilah following me. We went into my room and decided to watch a DVD we put Kidulthood on. We both ate our food and cried at the end as usual "Imagine getting beat up by a man when you’re pregnant, that's some messed up shit man" Jamilah said. I started to cry silently but it wasn't long before she realized I was crying.

Chapter 6 ..Emotional..
"Awwwwww baby girl, Tyla what’s up b? You aren’t yourself talk to me man we're best friends" Jamilah said hugging me. I told her the whole story and she sat there biting her lip and didn't say anything she looked really really angry. "NAHH WHAT THE FUCK WHATS MY MAN TRYING THOUGH ON A REAL!" She flipped out. I just sat there and cried she clocked onto me crying and calmed down. "Baby girl it's going to be okay yeah" she said hugging me. The mood had dropped so Jamilah took it onto herself to bring it up again and put on her best "Nigerian in Lidl looking for ready made jellof" and I laughed so much I thought the baby was going to come out of me right about now. "I thought you'd put on weight but I put that down to stress yanoe b" Jamilah said looking at my stomach "We'll do this together yeah you've been my best ko-d since we was little bit" she continued "I was going to ask you to be godmother anyway you eed" I replied. I lifted up my top and went to look in the mirror, I turned sideways and realized what she was talking about. "I best not become a fat hoe yanoe or I’ll cry, not really I’m joking" I said jokingly "Well you'd better cut down on them cream cakes you fat bitch!" Jamilah replied. Just then I started to feel dizzy and my stomach was hurting REALLY badly "Please no lord don't take away the one thing I’ve got going for me please" I thought clenching my stomach. "You okay b?" Jamilah asked looking alarmed. THUD.
Chapter 7 ..Gotta take it easy..
Next thing I can remember was waking up in hospital. I moved my head to the right and seen Jamilah in the same clothes I seen her in when we was at mine. "Jam..." I started "TYLA! DON'T DO THAT AGAIN YOU HEARD!" she said running out into the hospital hallway looking for someone "TYSHARN! TYSHARN!" She shouted, lord have mercy she was loud. I placed my hand on my stomach and to my relief I was still the same size as I was last time, meaning the lord had let me keep my baby. I praised him. "YO SIS!" a familiar voice said "Tyy, what happened" I replied to my brother "Never mind that just worry about yourself and getting yourself home, Mums on her way here she left Aunties like 2 hours ago but she's up in traffic" he said "Alright, can I have a drink though my throat feels all mashed" I said to my brother. He walked to my bed kissed me on my forehead and then walked out into the hallway to find a vending machine. Jamilah just looked at me and I looked at her for about 10 minutes. "So are you going to tell me why you haven't been eating B?" Jamilah asked me. "I have though" I tried to lie "Well I had the food earlier remember" I continued "No you didn't you left most of it I had to nyam it remember" Jamilah said looking upset. Jamilah told me that I had collapsed on to my bed clutching my stomach like something was wrong with my baby, then I started to shake. Jamilah said she rang Ty and he came through the door within seconds. She then rang an ambulance whilst I just lay there lifeless for about 5 seconds then started to breathe heavily. I had a panic attack. "Oh" I managed "Tyy...you’re not just eating for your sake you’re eating for your little boys or girls please just eat something" Jamilah said starting to cry. This was weird because my ko-d never cried even when she got her hand trapped in the science block doors on purpose by some bitch in our year she got the same hand and bombed the girl with it. I will never forget that day. I opened my arms for a hug. She came to my bed and hugged me and we both cried like bitches. She told me she's stand by me forever. My Mum came to pick us all up and take us home. Jamilah stayed round ours cause Mum agreed that I needed someone to confide in.
Chapter 8 ..Home sweet home..
I got home and went straight in the shower. I don't like the smell of hospitals they smell like old people. I put on my baggy Nike black and white tracksuit bottoms that fit snug over my bump. I then put on my white vest top, white trainers and black jacket. Me and Jamilah rolled to Jamilah's to get her bag for the weekend. We said hello to her dukes and she told us we shouldn't be out this late alone because it wasn't safe. Especially in my condition, I guessed my mum had told Jamilah's mum about what happened. She then hugged me and kissed Jamilah goodbye. Just as we were walking to the 56 bus stop I saw a familiar face. Kyle. He clocked me and came running at me with something shimmering in the street lights. A knife. I grabbed Jamilah and ran back down the road. Luckily I seen my brother’s man and shouted them "OI! JASONNNN!" I shouted as loud as I could "What's up Tyla" Jason said running over to me and Jamilah "K....Ky...Kyle...he's in...in...the...the...ends" I said struggling to breathe. Just then I seen his figure running round the block and Jamilah grabbed me and told me the man would take care of this we ran into an alleyway. We heard Kyle's voice shouting calling me every name under the sun and the sound of him begging them to llow it "NAH, YOUR CHASING OUR GENERALS LITTLE SISTER! LLOW IT? NEVER BIN BLUD!" Jason shouted. Just then I heard Kyle's voice getting closer and closer to where me and Jamilah were. "YO! PUSSYHOLE!" I heard a familiar voice shout. Tysharn came running round the same block and had a knife in his hand. "DONT FUCK WITH MY SISTER!" he shouted running towards Kyle. Kyle came running round the alleyway right at me "TYLA, TYLA, TYLA!" Tysharn shouted looking for me. I saw the blade coming straight for my stomach. "Nah mans not getting my ko-d or her baby" Jamilah said jumping in front of me. Blood started to spread all over her white top. She'd been stabbed in the stomach. "NO! SOMEONE PLEASEEE HELP HERRR" I started to shout frantically. Just then I saw my brother running around the corner towards Kyle rage in his eyes "YO! PUSSYYYYY!" he shouted to Kyle. Tysharn ran up to Kyle and swung for him. The knife he stabbed Jamilah with was long gone, no evidence then. Tysharn shanked him in his chest. Then got his man to and go dump him somewhere. I took my carefully rested Jamilah’s head on my bump. She gave me a faint smile and slipped out of consciousness. "WHERE THE FUCK IS THIS AMBULANCE?!" I shouted to Tysharn "I called them time ago sis, please just calm down" Tysharn said.

Chapter 9 ..Missing you..
Last night is still a blur to me. I sat in the hospital chair where I slept. I wanted to stay with Jamilah. She had tubes in her, so many tubes in her. Some of them were connected to make sure she was breathing okay, some of them were giving her back the blood she'd lost. I just stared at her hoping she'd wake up. 2 months passed and she was in the same state. Everyday I’d go and see how she was, put make up on her, sort her hair out for her, she would really have a hissy fit if she woke up looking a mess. Everyday I thought that was the day that she'd wake up. Doctors had said that if she didn't wake up tonight then they'd have to switch her machines off. I had to get out of the hospital cause it was all getting to much for me. I went back home and walked past Tysharn’s room. Tysharn was in his room on his Xbox. "You kool sis?" he asked me "Yeah I’m nice are you?" I replied "Yeah I’m nice I’m nice" he said with his eyes fixed on COD. Then I felt something really strange. The baby moved. I walked into my brother’s room and got his hand. "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING MAN, THIS ISN'T SAVED" he shouted. I got the Xbox keypad and hit save, then paused it. "Gimme your hand" I said gently. Tysharn gave me his hand and I placed it on my stomach. "That's your little nephew kicking you" I said smiling at him. "When did you realize you were having a boy sis?" Tysharn asked "I had an appointment today" I replied. I remembered that Jamilah had once said that movements can take a person out of a coma, she's a proper science geek. I got my stuff together and got the next bus to the hospital. I went into her room. The bed was empty. I started to panic where'd she gone? Had she died? I started to cry hysterically.

Chapter 10 ..All is well..
"Why you crying b?" someone behind me asked. I recognised the voice. I turned round. "JAMILAH! Baby girl you scared me thought you'd gone to meet the big man" I said hugging my ko-d. "I woke up an hour ago, that sleep was NICE!" Jamilah said. She jumped up on her bed "Who the hell spread my bed up man, CHA!" she said typical Jamilah "and did you do my hair all nice and my make up b?" she asked me "Yeah I did from me and your little godson wanted to say thank you for saving his life, I owe you one Jamilah" I said hugging Jamilah again. "WHATT! When did you get so big ayyy? How long have I been asleep for? How you know your having a little boy your only 2 months gone ain’t you" she said looking confused, "B you've been in a coma for 2 months I’m four months pregnant now. " I told Jamilah "Oh. OHH! I'VE MISSED SO MUCH DUBPLATE DRAMA OH MY DAYS!" she started off on one. "I taped it for you twirp" I said with a smile across my face. She showed me the scar Kyle had given her. The what ifs started running through my head what if Jamilah didn’t do what she did because she was panicking? What if my brother’s man wasn’t there and didn’t even give us some time to get away? What if I’d lost my little boy? I started to cry. I tried to stop myself but I couldn’t stop myself Jamilah clocked on. “What’s up b?” Jamilah asked me sat on her bed opening her arms for a hug, I cried like I’d never cried before. I never normally cry but I needed to let it all out. I was scared.

Chapter 11 ..Skeletons in my closet..
3 months had passed ever since Jamilah came out of hospital and I’d been away since then, Tysharn told me not to tell anyone where I was because I didn’t know who I could trust and who Kyle could bully it out of. Not even Jamilah could I tell which hurt me because if it wasn’t for her then I wouldn’t still have my son would I? I ring her from time to time but it wasn’t the same as having her there to talk to me and cheer me up in person. I had my laptop but where I was, I couldn’t get internet so the only way I could get hold of her was by her phone which was rare cause she’s always on it. I can imagine how much radiation is up in her head top! But the time away gave me time to think about what I was going to do about things but my biggest worry was Kyle. And once again the what ifs started running through my head…what if he tried killing both of us? What if when he was born and I took him on a walk what if he tried to harm him? What if he somehow killed me? Cause he couldn’t bring himself to hurt his own son? What if I never had the opportunity to see him take his first steps or say his first words or even the littlest things like his first smile or meet his first girlfriend? I began to cry again, I decided to ring my mum because I needed her to come and comfort me. “Mum?” I said starting to cry “Tyla! I’ve been so worried about you darling but I didn’t want to come and see you in case you didn’t want anybody knowing you was there” she replied sounding worried “Mum, please can you come and see me I need a hug” I started getting hysterical “Okay sweetheart I’ll be there in half hour yeah? I love you sweetheart” She said “Okay Mum I love you too” I said then put the phone down.
30 MINUTES LATER.
Knock knock knock. I went to the upstairs window to check who was at the door then I seen mum looking up at the window smiling at me. I went to the door and collapsed in mum’s arms crying. We sat on the sofa talking about what had been going off back at home. Mum told me how Tysharn’s not himself anymore and always stays in his room and smokes weed all day, at least before he’d come out for food but he don’t even do that no more. I went in the kitchen to make me and Mum some tea cause I know how she loved my cups of tea “Ty…” Mum started “Yeah Mum?” I replied “D-d-do you wanna come home? I don’t really wanna leave you here all on your own!” She said looking at me scared “I’ve been wanting to come home for a while but I couldn’t bring myself to ask you, I’ll go get my stuff” I said rushing out of the room. We got in the car and left but as we were driving back I could sense something wasn’t right, something was wrong with Tysharn.
..Tysharn’s chapter..
I waited for man to arrive. No way was he gonna get my baby sister and her baby. I rang Jason’s phone. “OI BRO! Get here now” I told him. He got here within minutes. I told him the story about how we had an argument over MSN and how he was gonna try how Tyla. “Look after man’s Mum and Sister and her baby yeah” I told him. “I ain’t leaving you” he replied. “JUST LEAVE MAN! WHAT ABOUT JAMILAH? YOUR MUM? YOUR DAD? JUST LEAVE!” I told him. He hugged me and told me to hold it down and went the back way back to the main road. I sat on my bed and waited for something to happen. Kyle burst through the door, I ran down the stairs. “ARE YOU DUMB THOUGH REALLY?!” I said to him I ran up to him and punched him. “NAH! BUT YOUR NOT GONNA KNOW THE DIFFERENCE!” he said. “WHERE’S YOUR SKET OF A SISTER?!” Kyle said to me. I swung for him again “WHO THE FUCK YOU CALLIN A SKET?!” I fucked him over. He lay there and so I decided to ring Jason “A man’s cool init” I told him. I felt a sharp pain in my back. I’d been stabbed. “WHO’S THE BIG MAN NOW?!” Kyle said pulling the knife out and placing it another place. Jason came running into the kitchen and hit Kyle three times over and rang the man them to come for him. I watched as Jason rang an ambulance. “Oi keep talking to me Tysharn keep talking to me” he told me. Mum walked though the door and stood dead in her tracks. Tyla followed Mum inside and screamed. “Jason calm her down, please take care of them if anything happens to me, and promise me you will” I told Jason. “Promise” Jason said comforting Tyla. “I love you Tyla, keep strong okay. You’ll be okay sis promise and I will too” I said kissing my baby sisters cheek as she wept, her arms around me. My eyes felt heavy. I took one last look at my baby sister, my best friend and my Mum and my eyes closed for the final time.
Chapter 14 ..I’ll die for you cause I ride for you..
“He died from stab wounds” the doctor told Mum at the hospital. “Can I see him?” Mum asked. The doctor nodded. Mum walked into the room where my brother lay dead. She broke down in tears. “My baby” was all she kept repeating. Things just weren’t the same without Tysharn at home. I wanted my brother back. My brothers man was all at his funeral with matching t-shirts with a picture of Tysharn with his date of birth and the day he died with ‘Rest in Paradise’ on the back. They’ve all been round since he died making sure me and mum was alright because words out that Kyle’s out on bail. I’m to scared to go out in case he attacks me or something, I haven’t been to school since it’s all gone off, tried but Kyle knows where I go to school so he could easily get me on my way home or something. I went in Tysharn’s room yesterday for the first time since he’d been murdered. Everything looked just as it was before he’d died, clothes everywhere, pieces and rizzla on his window ledge, his Xbox was still on pause and his food packets all around his room I looked at his bed and on his bedside table with his laptop still logged in to msn messenger but he was appearing offline. I went in his wardrobe and put on one of his hoodies just so I could feel close to him again. I began to cry softly so Mum wouldn’t hear me. Mums not been the same either since he’d died, when she thinks I’m asleep I can hear her crying in her bedroom. Last week I went to investigate what was happening and I crept along my landing and sat at the top of my stairs. Mum had a glass of red wine in one hand and a picture of me and Tysharn in the other it was the last picture we ever took together when things was normal when Tysharn turned 16 and he had massive house party and someone took a really nice picture of him hugging me so we got it developed for Mum and gave it to her on mother’s day. Mum was on the phone to my Aunty Charlotte crying so much. I decided to leave Aunty Charlotte to deal with my Mum because Mum always puts on an act whenever I speak to her she pretends she’s fine and I know inside she’s breaking down I can see it in her eyes. I sat in Tysharn’s room and decided to turn off his laptop before it overheats and sets the house on fire. I went to turn his laptop off but then I seen one of his conversations flashing orange curious, I clicked on it. I dropped the laptop on the floor I couldn’t believe what I was reading. Kyle threatened to kill me, he knew where I was but Tysharn tricked him into thinking I was back at home and he wasn’t at home.
Tysharn says:
WHAT THE FUCK YOU ONABOUT ABOUT YOUR GONNA STAB UP MY SISTER YOUR ON SOME FUCKERIES!
Kyle says:
WATCH! She’ll pay for trying to get me sent down init! I’ll kill her and her baby! Watch me and her tonight
Tysharn says:
Touch her and I’ll kill you init fam!
Kyle says:
I’ll be in pen for it so you won’t be able to get me until I come out! I heard she’s back at yours anyway and I know you aren’t at your yard so I’ll go your yard now yeah! R.I.P Tyla.
Kyle is now offline
I started to cry hysterically. Tysharn died because of me, I couldn’t believe it. I gave up on everything. Maybe if I never went town after school that day then nobody would have raped me then all this shit wouldn’t have kicked off. I felt so much to blame for everything. I started to cry even more. Just then the door knocked. I went to the door and I couldn’t believe who I saw standing there was I dreaming or was this just a terrible nightmare? The person had blood on their hands and a knife in their left hand. They said two words that I’d never thought I’d hear anybody say “Kyle’s dead” the person had a balaclava on their face but I could still tell who it was from the voice. Even though I hadn’t seen them since I was 7.
Chapter 15 ..Blood on your hands..
“Dad…what have you done?” I said looking at his hands scared “Tyla! Come from the door please me and your dad, we need to talk” Mum said rushing me off upstairs “NO! HE’S JUST KILLED MY BABY’S FATHER AND YOU EXPECT ME TO JUST GO UPSTAIRS?” I shouted starting to get vex “BUT HE KILLED YOUR BROTHER! YOU KNOW THE ONE WHO DIED FOR YOU? THE ONE WHO DIED BECAUSE HE WAS TRYING TO PROTECT YOU! IF IT WASN’T FOR YOU HE STILL WOULD HAVE BEEN HERE!” she shouted back. That comment hurt me. I ran up the stairs and into my bedroom slamming my bedroom door shut. I collapsed on my bed in tears. Still I rise, still I fight, still I might crack a smile, keep my eyes on the prize, see my haters tell ‘em hi, one day you’ll remember this, one day I’ll remember this, nothing I ever do is for you I looked at the screen and was happy this person was phoning. “TYLAAA!” Jamilah squealed down the phone but she could hear me crying “Wassup b?” she carried on “Kyle’s dead” I broke down crying and I told her the whole story “OH MY DAYS! I’ll be round in 20 minutes my dukes will drop me off at yours yeah” Jamilah said locking off the phone.
HALF AN HOUR LATER.



I went to the door and opened it, Jamilah stood there looking fresh in her hoodrats uniform she gave me a hug and we went into my room. I told her about what my mum said to me and Jamilah told me it wasn’t true. Just then my dad knocked on my door “I’ll be downstairs if you need me Ty yeah” Jamilah said letting my dad in then leaving. “Your Mum told me what he’d done Ty, you’re my little girl I can’t let him rape you then kill your brother, please forgive me” I sat on my bed not even looking at him I couldn’t bring myself to do it. I started to cry and he tried hugging me “GET AWAY FROM ME!” I said pushing him over and running out of my room and down the stairs but I misjudged the 5th step from the bottom and fell all the way to the bottom. Mum came running out of the kitchen “TYLA! Please god no don’t take away both of my children in the matter of months” she started to cry. All I could hear was people screaming and shouting. I opened my eyes just a little and I could see Tysharn in the doorway telling me to keep calm. I woke up; Jamilah was asleep on the chair with her head on my bed. I felt strange then I realized I was no longer 8 months pregnant. Jamilah woke up and spotted I was awake and smiled at me “WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SMILING ABOUT I’VE LOST MY FUCKING BABY AND YOUR FUCKING SMILINGG AT ME LIKE NOTHINGS WRONG?!” I shouted at her I tried to move but I had tubes in me so I couldn’t move. “Ty what you talking about you haven’t lost him. He’s just in another room cause he was born early” Jamilah said hugging me. I started to cry even more than I was but not because I was scared this time but because my little boy was safe
     Chapter 17 ..I can’t believe it..
     My Mum came in the room followed by a nurse pushing an incubator. As soon as I set eyes on him I fell in love with him. “I thought I was going to lose you. Ty…this is your son, he’s not quiet strong enough but he’ll be allowed home in a few weeks” Mum said. Jamilah was smiling at me I couldn’t believe he’d survived all that turmoil I knew he was a fighter and I knew from that moment on he’d become my number one priority in life. Just then it hit me I knew what I was gonna call him. After Jamilah had gone home for a change of clothes and a bath it was just me, my mum and my baby. “I’m so proud of you Tyla” Mum said looking on as my baby slept sweetly “Mum…I think I know what I’m going to call him, he’s a fighter right? And It only seems right to call him Junior” I said. Mum looked gone out “AFTER HIS FATHER?!” Mum said looking hurt “No, after my brother because, if it wasn’t for Tysharn then Junior wouldn’t be here would he?” I said to Mum watching her facial expressions “OH TYLA! HE WOULD BE SO PROUD OF YOU!” She said hugging me starting to cry. I was allowed home from hospital two days later but they told me I had to take it easy however Junior had to stay in because he wasn’t strong enough to come home with me.  Me and Jamilah normally stayed there all day and night just watching him praying he would get better. Just then the nurse came in and told me someone was at the reception wanting to see me. Names ran through my head and I couldn’t think of who it would be but then I couldn’t believe my eyes.
    Chapter 18 ..Will you be my b-a-b-y?..
    The person came up to me with a bunch of flowers and a teddy nearly bigger than me for Junior, I walked a little closer and gave him a kiss on the cheek. He hugged me and I led him to the room where Junior and Jamilah were. “JASON! I thought you were in Jamaica with Dad?” Jamilah asked her older brother “Nahh, come back when I heard what had gone off, but your annoying so I stayed at a goons yard init” Jason joked Jamilah looked like she was going to bang a man and she just kissed her teeth she left the room to go and get some food from a vending machine two floors below. Jason sat in his sisters chair and looked at Junior “You know I’ve liked you for a while yanoe” he said out of the blue “Really? Me too but you was my brothers man so it would of caused complications” I replied looking him in his eyes. He sat there for a moment, got up after a while and kissed me like nobody had kissed me before, we was kissing for a while we was so much into it that we never seen Jamilah standing there “OOOO LA LAA!” she said walking back into the room handing me a packet of sensations and a mars bar. “So, what’s his name b?” Jason asked me “Junior and no not after his dad” I replied “After who then” he said looking puzzled “His uncle his names Tysharn Rae’Quarn Johnson” I said starting to cry, he came and hugged me. A few hours passed and Jason asked me to walk him back to the main reception before he got lost I agreed and left Jamilah with Junior. “Like I said I liked you from day and Tysharn asked me to look after you and your mum if anything ever happened to him so that’s what I intend to do init” Jason said leaning in for a kiss “You want to get with someone who’s just had a baby that isn’t yours?” I said looking puzzled “Yeah I love him already like he was my own and I like his mother a lot” he said kissing me again and it sealed the deal me and Jason was official. I walked back up to the room and I walked in the room where Junior and Jamilah were but Jamilah was asleep and Junior’s incubator had gone from where it was. I woke Jamilah up with a kick.
    Chapter 19 ..Take me away..
    “Where’s Junior?!” I shouted at a half awake Jamilah “Right here Ty” a familiar voice said from behind me. I turned round to see Mum and Dad with Junior in Mum’s arms his big green eyes looking up at me. She handed him over to me and I fell in love once more he was perfect. He was now healthy enough to come home with me, if he shown no complications tonight then I could take him home first thing. I watched my baby fall asleep in my arms after his first proper feed. I lay him back in his cot and hugged Mum “Ty…I hope you don’t mind and tell me if you do but your Dad he wants to come back and live with us, he wants to protect you, his grandson and me” she said nervously. I looked at Dad he seemed a changed man and I decided to give him another chance. “Yeah, okay” I said to Mum smiling I was always a Daddy’s girl and leapt in his arms for a hug “I’m sorry Tyla but he couldn’t get away with it” he said into my hair “I know Dad I know” I replied. I decided to spend the night alone with my boy that night. Jamilah decided to go home for a nights sleep because tomorrow she’d be round mine most of the day. I woke up the following morning at about 7am because Mum was coming to collect me and Junior at half 8. I wrapped Junior up tight because it was getting cold outside. I put him in his blue baby grow and matching all in one suit I topped it all off with a white hat. Mum came and brought us home.
    Chapter 20 ..Settled down..
     I walked into the house to find loads of people waiting to see us. My grandma and Granddad was there so was my Aunty Charlotte and My Dad but no sign of Jason or Jamilah. “Tyla why don’t you go upstairs and get changed sweetheart? I’ll take Junior for you” Mum said. I greeted everyone then went upstairs to my room to find two special people sat on my bed. Jason and Jamilah were both smiling at me. Jason had assembled all the flat-packed things in my room. I never got round to doing them because I couldn’t find the time he’d even brought me some additional stuff. I ran up to him and kissed him. I then realized that my room had been moved around and that was all Jamilah’s doing it looked a lot better now and I hugged Jamilah for all her hard work “Wait here a second” I told them both vanishing out of the room. I came back with Junior in my arms and handed him to Jamilah and for the first time ever she started to cry “Hello Junior, I’m your godmother and I promise to always protect you no matter what and your mummy too” she said to her godson and passed him back to me then she walked out of the room to go sort herself out. “Tysharn this is your daddy” I said passing him to Jason he looked startled “Well that’s if he promises to stick around and look after us both and never hurt me and especially you, never forget your birthday or mine and always treat us like royalty” I said to Jason. He sat there for a minute or two looking at Tysharn then he finally spoke “Well let me tell you one thing son, I won’t hurt your mummy because me, your daddy, loves her to much and you, son” he said smiling. We both went downstairs him holding Junior and I took my Mum into the kitchen. “Mum me and Jason’s going to raise Junior together okay?” I said “Okay Tyla as long as he doesn’t hurt you that’s fine with me and if he sticks around then that’d be even better!” Mum said hugging me. I walked back in and most of the people had gone only me, Mum, Dad, Jamilah and Jason remained. My Dad and Jason were talking about something and Jamilah was playing with her godson. Jason got up and led me upstairs. I looked back and my Dad winked at me. We both sat on my bed and I was worried about what was going to come out of his mouth. He then got up off my bed paced abit then got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. And I said yes.
