A Chapter by Itzel

I prepared the spare room in case Maya wanted to stay. As soon as I finished I crept to Brianna's room only to find her slumped over her desk softly snoring. Her books laid across her desk. I tried to pick the 15 year old up but failed as she was taller then me and a little heavier then I expected. Ty chuckled leaning against the door, you know Cindy, Maya isn't going to believe you're my step mom for long.
She will if you don't tell her anything, now help me I hissed at him. Yeah alright, Ty got close to her before picking her up, she's gained weight he whispered to me when he put her in the bed. Draping a blanket over her, I looked at her smiling "I know she's gotten taller too". Shes changed a lot hasnt she ty said smiling. Yeah you all have, she was small and frail, you were scared of everything, kayle wouldnt talk and daylen i sighed hes so big now. I remember when i bought diapers the first time he was so fussy, remember? Yeah, he was a handful ty said. I looked at him what do you mean was. He still is. I smiled. Now go sleep and tell your girlfriend that if she wants to stay the spare room is ready.
I went to the spare room finding Maya already there "there's some pajamas in the wardrobe",I turned to walk out, Cindy wait um thank you for letting me stay and not asking why,
What are parents for if not to help their kids and their kids friends. Good night Maya and with that I closed the door.
As i walk downstairs I hear someone there, pulled a knife from my boot and take the safety off my gun while I slowly approached the door.

I walked across the floor to the door,as a sliver of light cascaded from the room, I slowly pushed the door open, it had barely opened an inch when a loud creak echoed through the hall, the dark figure froze, before turning. I instantly relaxed lowering the gun, what are you doing here, I thought you were in bed. Ty looked at me sheeply, I was gonna watch tv,
"God teenagers it's always tv, food, or phones with you guys" i replied in an exasperated tone. Ty scoffed yeah, what about you, you're a teenager don't you feel the tv calling your name.
"Nope never" i replied smiling, Ty shook his head "abnormal teen, who doesnt like tv".
Hey I'm completely normal. I say crossing my arms
You still haven't put the knife away, and it's a little unnerving when you're wielding it.
"Aw, calm down, it's not like I don't know how to use it, and if you're gonna watch tv at least turn the volume down and close the door, im going to rest now."
Ty groaned before sighing, "yes mom"

Oh God that sounds so wrong, please don't say that again it's just plain weird." I said wrinkling my nose
Ty laughed ha ha yeah it is.
"Night" I say giving a two finger wave, before turning towards the door when Ty whispers, how am I going to tell Maya about you, sinking into the couch, leaving a heavy sigh in the air. I put my hand on his shoulder,you don't tell her, trust me it won't end well. I kiss the top of his head and ruffle his hair, before returning to my room.
I opened my window to get the duffle bag, sliding open the zipper I take out a rifle and a hand gun, pulling out the magazine I return them to their place in the closet. I see my all black suit checking it for any tears once I'm satisfied there are none I throw it with my laundry. I remove my wig from the bag, a short Brown Bob, the only things left in the bag now are what I took from the warehouse, a couple of figit spinners, three laptops, 2000 dollars, more ammo for my guns, and a sawed off shotgun. Sigh I'll need to hit something else by the end of the month, I collapse onto my bed, ugh I sit up taking my shirt off tossing it into a bin doing the same with my pants missing the bin, leaving my underclothes on. I pull a hoodie over my head, picking up my pants I throw them in the hamper and turn off the lights letting sleep take me.
