When Janessa and Stephanie got to her room Stephanie instantly went to the closet.

" I love your room " she said as she went in the closet.

" you love my closet- with all my clothes " Janessa said back sitting on the bed.

" see don't you love that we can wear each other's clothes? " Stephanie asked with a smile.

" ooh I'll wear this tomorrow " Stephanie said and Janessa shook her head.

~ Meanwhile Downstairs ~

" I love her already " Sarah said and they agreed.

" What was that about Vanessa? " Katherine asked and they were all also curious.

" nothing, is there something to eat in this place? " Vanessa asked changing the subject.

" Didn't you just eat? " her mom asked and Vanessa rolled her eyes.

" yes there's some breakfast in the kitchen " Katherine said and Vanessa got up.

" thank you " she said and left to the kitchen.

" why do you say stuff like that to her? " Cecilia asked.

" what? " Miriam asked.

" didn't you just eat.. that's what you said and I know she's your daughter and all but you can't just say that " Cecilia said and Miriam started to get irritated.

" exactly she's not your daughter and it's not hurting anyone, mind your business " Miriam said back.

" she could get a eating disorder or something.. " Cecilia said.

" okay- where in my sentence did you get that from? " Miriam asked.

" think about what you said, that's a form of emotional abuse " Cecilia said.

" look mind your damn business and worry about your own daughter " Miriam said making Sarah look at her.

" don't bring me into this because my mom is right and there's nothing for her to worry about " Sarah said seriously.

" clearly there is when you're in a adults conversation " Miriam said making jazmine look at her confused.

" can we not do this today? " jazmine asked.

" you brought me in it " Sarah said.

" Sarah don't feed into it " Cecilia said and before anyone else could speak Vanessa came back in.

" mom they're right- I'm tired of your comments and you may think it's nice but it's not " she said seriously.

" so you're siding with them? " Miriam asked and Vanessa scoffed.

" there's no sides, you have to reword what you're saying " Katherine said.

" did anyone ask you? don't you have a sister to go bond with? " Miriam asked.

" first of all watch it " Jamie said.

" mom you can't get mad " Vanessa said.

" Nobody's mad " Miriam said.

" EVERYBODY STOP! " their grandma yelled.

Arianna went over to her mom getting scared and her mom picked her up.

" you will not say horrible things to my grand daughter, or any of my family for that matter " she said seriously and gave Miriam a glare.

" Watch what you say, and watch how you say it " she added.

" yeah tell her! " Janessa said from the entrance and they all looked at her.

" what? i was nosy and y'all were loud " she said defending herself.

" where's your friend? " jazmine asked.

" roaming my closet " Janessa said casually and went over to Arianna.

" can I pick her up? " Janessa asked and jazmine nodded.

Janessa held her hands out and Arianna instantly went to her.

" I'm stealing her " Janessa said.

" nope " jazmine said with a laugh.

" oh and to think i've grown on you " Janessa said sitting down.

The rest of the men came into view and went to their wives.

" Is everything okay? " their grandfather asked and their grandmother nodded.

" oh my friend is here and i'll introduce you when I get up " Janessa said looking at the rest of them.

" um how did- " Joseph started and got cut off by Janessa.

" she tracked my phone and she was already in the state, also she's spending the night " Janessa said.

" where is she? " he asked.

" roaming my closet " Janessa said again and they looked at her confused.

" you just invited a stranger into my house? " Joseph asked.

" she's harmless and she's not a stranger to me " Janessa said back.

" I don't know her Janessa, why didn't you consult me "

" I'm telling you now! " Janessa said slightly raising her voice.

" Janessa! " he said.

" you let me into your house and i'm a stranger- I'd think it was normal " she said seriously.

" Janessa go get your friend now! " he said and she scoffed before getting up.

" No need- I'm right here " Stephanie said coming into the living room.

" I'm assuming you're her father, those are her brothers and those are her uncles and few cousins " Stephanie said pointing to them and looked at Janessa and she nodded.

Janessa felt nauseous and handed jazmine her baby.

She felt bile rising up and she knew she couldn't make it to her bathroom so she ran to the guest bathroom nearby.

Stephanie looked at her confused and so did the rest of them.

" no I got it " Stephanie said stopping them and went the direction she went in.

Eventually Stephanie did find Janessa and she was in fact throwing up.

" Are you okay? " Stephanie asked holding her hair back.

" Yes, but after this i'm going to spend the rest of my day in bed " Janessa said taking in a deep breath.

A/N: time skip because that's literally what happened..



" тримайся від неї подалі " I said angrily to the person on the phone and hung up. ( stay away from her )

There was a knock on the door and I looked at Janessa before going to open it.

" it's time for dinner " one of the boys from earlier said- I don't know the name.

" right I'll wake her up " I said and he left so I quickly closed the door and went to Janessa.

I shook her awake and not even a second later she jumped up and grabbed my wrist.

" you're too paranoid for me " I said and she let me go.

" I mean you'd be too if you were in my situation " she said and got up.

" Yeah well it's time for dinner " I said and she went to the bathroom.

If only I could tell her the real reason i'm here..

Protection is definitely one of them and I know she can protect herself but she's not the only one paranoid.

She came out of the bathroom and gave me a look before walking to the door.

" you're rude " I said and got up.

< >

When we got to what I'm assuming is the dining room everybody had their own conversation going on.

Me and Janessa sat in the two empty chairs and I looked at all of them one by one.

Now maybe I looked like a creep but who cares.

Everybody began eating and Janessa was about to but I put something in her hand.

She put it in the food and there was a rapid beeping sound that caught everyone's attention.

" just as I suspected " I said and she gave me a nod before pulling the tester out her food.

" so you're trying to poison me now? " she asked pushing the plate away.

" I'll go eat somewhere else " she said standing up and so did I.

" So I'm assuming you expect me to trust you? This doesn't do that- this makes me feel unsafe and I don't like to feel unsafe " she said and walked off.

" I just sat down but can I come? " the girl asked- I do not remember these peoples name.

" of course- let's go " she said and we walked out.

" I'm this close to moving out " she said angrily.

" we can take my car " I said grabbing my keys out my pocket.

" Where are we going to eat at? " I asked and she shrugged her shoulders.

" there's this place that has good ass Mexican food " the girl said.

" Fine by me, what do you think? " Janessa asked looking at me.

" okay " I said and with that we walked out the door.
