Chapter 5

Akira recently broke up with this jerk when he hit her, and now he was trying to violate her! “You thought you could stalk me, wait till Akira was alone and then attack her!” I yelled while he was getting up holding his head. He ran into me tackling me to the ground and knocking the wind out of me. I knew my ribs were going to bruise and it hurt to breathe. I kneed him in the groin and he rolled off of me onto the ground. I got up and backed toward Akira thinking of how I was going to get her out of here. He charged at me again hitting me in the side and pushing me into the hallway slamming my head into the wall. I yelped a little and jumped up as fast as I could to prepare for his next attack getting a little dizzy. I touched the back of my head and felt the bleeding on my hand, but I didn't feel like I was bleeding. This time I pounced at him and grabbed the back of his hair bringing his face to me, I grabbed the vacuum hose near by and hit him over the head as hard as I could. He turned and flipped me kicking my feet out from under me and grabbing my neck. He was trying to choke me so I twisted as hard as I could and jabbed him with my elbow accidentally hitting him in the neck. He fell limp and was knocked out but still breathing. I wasn't sure how much time I had so I ran to Akira.

I untied her and helped her with the gag. She was crying and telling me she was so scared because she was all alone this time. I told her to hush and everything would be fine now. I took the ropes he had tied her up with and used them on him. He woke up when I was finishing off his hands but hadn't done his feet yet. He struggled against the knots and then rose to his feet with his hands still bound. I grabbed Akira and ran outside as fast as we could. We made it to the front yard when I knew he was right behind Akira who was behind me. I flung her forward in front of me forcing me back and bumping right into Allen. He couldn't grab me at least because he had no use of his hands. He tried ramming me but I dodged. I shouted to Akira to get someone. She looked around unsure who to get, or who could help. I looked over at her and asked what she was waiting for but when I looked away he rammed me into the ground and I yelled. Someone seemed to run out of one of the houses down the street to see who it was. I used my weight to flip him off of me and kicked him back. He hit the tree in her front yard.

He got up again and this time his hands were free, somehow he got out of the knots. He ran toward me laughing and I braced myself preparing to try and hit that spot that knocked him out earlier. I couldn't believe it when I saw Allen be rammed himself by another guy. Allen got back up but this time took off down the street. Someone put there hand out to help me stay balance. I grabbed and they pulled me against there side supporting my weight leading me into their house. I didn't bother to look up to see who it was just asked about Akira. He said that she was fine. Shocked that I recognized his voice I looked up to see who it was.

Kadeem was looking down at me with concern. I was pretty sure it was him even though my vision was getting blurry. He led me to the kitchen, and gave me some bandages. After he tended to my wounds he asked if I wanted to explain what just happened. I told him it was nothing and it actually comes as no shock to us. He looked down at me a little surprised and asked if I meant that I got into a fight with some maniac all the time. I giggled a little but it hurt so I stopped. I decided to explain it to him for helping me. Then he offered to let me stay with him tonight but I declined and refused a ride getting on my moped and heading home after checking in on Akira.

I finally got home and was exhausted. My head hurt and had bled through the bandages. I looked for more in the kitchen but couldn't find anything. I decided to get out some old cloth I using in my sewing projects and I created a bandage from that. Tomorrow I would go and pick some up from the nearest thrift store. I called Akira and checked up on her. She said she was fine and she'll be at my house at noon tomorrow. We hung up and I went upstairs to go to bed. But before I made it there I passed out in the hall to my room.

When I woke up I was in my own bed. I couldn't remember getting home last night or how I ended up in my bed. My mom came in and told me she found some guy looking over me. She also said he told her he found me in the hallway and moved me to my bed elevated me and tended to my wounds. I couldn't think of who it might have been. I tried to get up but my head hurt to much. I tried to tell my mom to pick up bandages for me but she ran out saying she was late to work and had to leave. “Later sweetie, feel better!” she called and slammed the door. I winced at the loud noise. Hmm..I groaned to myself rolling over. I'll pick them up myself.

I got out of bed unsteadily and headed out of the house grabbing my moped keys. I got on my bike and started it up not enjoying the noise it made. I felt a little unbalanced and dizzy but I ignored it. I was reeving it up about to leave when I heard Kadeem shout behind me. “WAIT!” he called to me.

I looked back at him confused and shut the engine off. “Where do you think your going?” he asked a little angry. “To pick some stuff up.” I replied.

“No I have all the stuff you will need,” he said holding up a bag filled with all kinds of medical stuff. He made me get off the bike even though I insisted I could care for myself. He resorted to force helping me off the bike and laying me on the couch. I couldn't resist because I didn't have the strength to deal with an unnecessary struggle.

He stayed caring for me like I was his child for over an hour. Then he sat in the chair across from me and I begged him to leave telling him I really appreciated him doing this but Akira would be here and I can handle myself. He was very demanding in caring for me and refused to leave. I left it at that but I didn't like him treating me like I was helpless. He thinks he can protect me from everything now and won't let me do anything. I hoped he would leave when Akira showed up. He was nice but I didn't like being controlled.

He waited and ended up falling asleep. I went to the closet and got out a light blanket and threw it over him. Akira showed up when I was cleaning the blood of the hallway floor. I told her to be quiet so she wouldn't wake Kadeem. She looked over at me funny and then smiled really big. I told her its not like that and he was just caring for me for some reason. Then I remembered that his name meant servant and told Akira. We started laughing and cracked up so loud my head spun a little and we accidentally woke Kadeem. He woke up slowly looking around then glanced at the couch. When he saw I wasn't there he jumped up. Akira and I were in the kitchen at that point and he entered looking aggravated. “Hey Kadeem.” Akira greeted him.

“Hi..” he said hesitantly. “Mika what are you doing up.

“I'm feeling fine Kadeem don't worry so much.”

“Um okay well maybe I should stay here tonight on the couch to make sure you don't pass out in your hallway again.” I started to tell him that was unnecessary but then I wondered how he knew about that. He told me he was the one who checked on my last night. I stood there a little confused then nodded and turned back to getting some food from the fridge. “Want anything Kadeem?” I asked.

He refused and then tried to take over saying he can get the food. I told him I was fine in a very stern voice and he dropped it.

Kadeem and Akira went to wait in the living room. They talked while I made food. I was glad for the break from Kadeem's constant trying to take over everything. “So Kadeem...” Akira asked.

“Yeah” he said absent minded.

“Do you like Mika?” she blurted out.

“Yeah.”

“Well being there to help and protect her is one thing but breaking her or trying to take over everything will NEVER work with her” she advised him.

“You think so?”

“I know so!” she snapped.

“Hmm, well maybe its just she hasn't met someone strong enough to bend her spirit for them.” he replied thinking.

“Your messed up you know that. And if you think your strong enough to 'bend' her to your will think again.”

“I have, and her strength and the challenge of breaking her is what is so appealing.”

“Ugh, your sick! You can't bread Mika, GOT THAT!”

“Yeah sure okay, I've got to go now.”

“Bye.” Akira told him kind of glad he left.
