I opened the door to be met with tear-stained cheeks and puffy eyes.

"She- She's gone," Kayleigh tells me referring to her grandmother. I pulled her in for a hug knowing she needs me. She cries in my chest letting everything out. All her pain from losing someone so close to her. I rub her back trying to comfort her and lean my head on hers.

"Let's go upstairs," I whisper wanting to get her out of the doorway. I lead her upstairs and away from all the noise from downstairs. We sit on a random bed since my bed is the top bunk. I wrap my arms around her once more as she leans her head on my shoulder. "I'm so sorry, Kayleigh," I say to her. I softly start to hum her favorite song that Medda performs, "High Times, Hard Times". The humming soon turns into me singing. I could hear her cries turn into laughs.

"Dere's dat beautiful smile I've been missin'," I wipe away one of her tears with my thumb, my words making her smile even brighter. I cup her face with my hands and bring her lips to my own. We both pull away as she leans her head on my shoulder once more before falling into a much needed sleep.
