I call the alpha daddy

I sat on the floor looking at the yellow paper, I'm getting evicted i have 3 days to leave. But where to go i got no body I've been alone since i was 15.

This crappie studio apartment was the only place i called mine.

I looked around at my puke green second maybe 3rd hand me down couch, it's also my bed , the boxes in the middle to replace a table.

My kitchen was practically bare the fridge stoped working one week after i moved in , i didn't buy much food anyway so i never cared and neither did my landlord, i had a box of lucky charms and some poptart in the cabinets. My clothes were scattered around the place dirty on the floor , clean on my one and only chair.

I felt a headache start building behind my eyes , i was gonna cry. But crying is a privilege , poor people can't afford it.

I got up went over my sink and washed my face with cold water (the only water available around here) , looking at myself i hardly recognized my own reflection ,my once vibrant blue eyes are now dull and sad ,I'm sporting some black bags under them, my cheeks are so hollow , my lips are chapped and grey looking. In conclusion i don't look like death, i am death.

Shaking my head i get out of the door and go hunting my landlord to beg him to keep my home.

I found Mr. Thompson wondering in the building probably looking for some puppies to kick (ohh wait he's kicking me out). I plastered my best fake smile i could master and said cheerfully

"Good morning Mr. Thompson"

His eyes did a quick run up and down my body , a lazy smile showed on his lips while he replied "Morning Miss nala" .

His breath made me sick , he smelled of Tobacco and cheap alcohol.

"What can i do for you today "

Swallowing the pit forming in my throat i gave him my best puppy eyes

"Uhh ...i...i wanted to talk to u about my evacuation, i don't have anywhere else to go can't you please please let me stay?" i said it rapidly, there i said it.

The ugly man in front of me laughed, a deep belly laugh , it sounded evil to be real "Oww little girl you are cute but it's not up to me the whole building is sold and gonna be demolished, some rich guys bought the whole area , they plan on cleaning it from the crime and gangs and build some middle calss homes"

I felt my world shatter with every word he saidm, this time i couldn't stop the tears that got up in my eyes.

"You know if you need somewhere to stay I'll be more then happy to let you stay with me , for a price of course" and he got the audacity to wink at me. I shook my head quickly said a thank you to the evil man and ran to my apartment.

I closed the door and went on the search for leo my teddy bear , it was an old brown stuffed teddy i had it since my childhood and my only solence for now. I found him under the dirty pile of clothes and hugged him close to my heart and started crying.
