Chapter 1: the plan

*Kyleigh

“Excuse me young lady that man over their wishes to see you” this lady said to me I was in a air port using the money I saved from my little job at basking robins

I looked up at the small lady not knowing rather I should go or not

“He asked if I could ask you to come over there” she smiled I nodded my head up and down and slowly made my way over to him behind her

“Here she is sir” she smiled he nodded to her thanking her

“Hello” he smiled at me I felt creep out I didn’t say anything

He just looked at me “Is your name Kyleigh” he asked

I looked at him shocked how he knew my name

“Yes” I said lowly  

“I’m your father” he said

I backed up slowly walking back to my seat there’s no way he’s my father I don’t even know my dad plus this dude was famous he… he… he was Nas. He got up and follows me to my seat

“You can’t be my father” I looked right ahead not looking at him

“I am your mother name is Kim Graham” he said sitting down next to me

“So you know her name I’m not surprised” I stated

“I am you were 13lb brown hair and green eyes and you have a birth mark on your arm” he pointed to my left arm

“Why are you coming now” I asked

“What do you mean” he asked with confusing written all over his face 

“Where have you been, you left us, me” I slightly yelled

“I didn’t leave you, your mother ran off with you” he said whipping his hands over his face

“Right that’s what they all say” I looked at him not buying it

“I’m telling the truth I looked for y'all I even came to your grandmother’s house before she passed, and asked for you but they said you weren’t there”

I nodded my head thinking about my grandmother I just wanted to cry she was a great woman.

“Now it’s my turn to ask questions” he looked at me I just looked at him so he can continue

“Where is your mother” he sat back

“Outta her mind” I said lowly but it was too late he heard me

“What was that?”

“She’s strung out on drug” I looked at him with cold eyes

“What no Kim” he shook his head

“Ha like you even care you left her” I yelled

“I did not leave her” he said tightly

I rolled my eyes “Okay what you want from me”

“I saw you and you looked familiar, like me so I had to ask you your name but once I saw your face I knew it was you” he smiled

“Yea okay”

“Where are you headed” he asked with his eyebrow cocked

“Iono” I said lowly looking out the window

“What you mean iono do your mother know you’re out here by yourself” he asked concerned

“She could care less about my safely, let along where I am” I said not looking at him

“Well I’m not letting you walk the streets to get pimped out” he said looking at me

“Thanks for your concern, but I can’t” I shook my head no

“I am your father, and I missed what 16 years of your life now” he asked with a eyebrow raised

I laughed lightly “I’m 17” I told him

“Same thing” he laughed

“Yea this should be fun” I said looking at my phone

Not one person called and I have been gone for a whole day, which goes to show you that no one cares for me

“I’m going to talk to your mother” he said sternly

“Ha talk there’s no talking to that woman you can sit around and ‘talk’ but I won’t” I yelled at him

He just studied me for a minute “its okay I won’t hurt you” he patted my shoulder

“How can you say that you don’t even know me” I asked with tears in my eyes

“But I do know you, I know you’re my daughter” he lifted my chin up with his finger

That just made me cry even harder how am I gonna get through this?

--

I opened my eyes to see the plan had stopped I looked around to see what happened hours ago was a dream. Please tell me that Nas isn’t my father and that was my mind playing tricks on me.

I nodded looking around not seeing his yea it must have been a dream as soon as I got computable he walked over to me

“Babygirl you ready to go” I opened my eyes looking at him Sooo this wasn’t a dream GREAT just my luck 

“You ready” he repeated laughing

“Yea” I mumbled

“You have bags” he asked

“No” I said stretching

“Why” he asked

“I told you she told me to leave so I ran” I said waiting for them to move

“We gotta get you some clothes” he said doing something on his phone

We finally got off the plan walking over to a limo along side with this dude standing by it.

“Hey boss” he smiled taking Nas bag

“How are you” he replied they guys attention went to me

“And who is this a fan” he smiled

“No I’m Nas daughter” I said with my arms crossed over my chest

“Daughter” the guy repeated in confusion

“Yea you remember Kim” he asked

“Yea” he said eyeing me

“Well. Umm yea this is Kyleigh” he said rubbing the back of his neck

“Well then Wassup Lil Nas” he laughed

I rolled my eyes not even caring for his comment I just wanted to know what I’m gonna do and where I’m gonna go

I watched them talk for a while I thought of a plan of where I’m gonna go.

“Well it was fin talking to you but I really can’t waist any more of your time so I think I’ll just go” I waved at them beginning to walk away

“I can’t let you do that” Nas said

I turned back around raising my eyebrows “And why can’t you”

“Because I’m your fa...”

“Save it you only knew me for about 45 minutes” I yelled at him

“I don’t care I’m NOT leaving you so young lady get in the car now” he yelled back

“No” I said simply

“No” he repeated in an asking manor

“I’m not getting in the car”

“Kyleigh Jones get in the car NOW and that’s an order” he said fatherly

I looked at him with angry he returned it but stood his ground after a few moments of having a stare down I caved in and got in the car. The dude patted Nas back “Good standing your ground” he mumbled

I sighed crossing my legs shaking my legs I am livid

“Where are we” I asked looking out the window as we left the airport

“New York City” he smiled looking up from his phone

He laughed again must have been of my face

“You’ve never been” he asked

I shook my head no and looked out the window again

“When we get home we need to take” he looked at me

“Fine” I mumbled

45 minutes later              

We pulled up in front of this beautiful house with an amazing pool

“Welcome home” he smiled big getting out the car

The dude opened the car door for me “Thanks” I said lowly

He pulled the door opened letting the cold air hit my skin making me shiver

“Welcome home honey” this pretty woman walked up to Nas and kissed him I rolled my eyes making the big dude laughed which caused them to break the kiss.

Nas looked at me and then back the lady with this grin on his face

“Who’s this pretty little lady a fan?”

Omg if someone asks me that one more time imma go ape crap bro.

“No I’m Nasir daughter” I looked at him

‘You have kids” she asked

He rubbed the back of his neck “Umm yea” he said lowly

She just looked at him with narrow eyes “I can’t deal with this right now” she turned to walk away

“Don’t worry about her” the dude shook his head

I looked at the door and then back at Nas while he had his arms crossed looking at the floor my vision went back to the door, and next thing I knew I was spiriting to it running like the wind.

“Hey come back” the dude yelled

My hair flew behind me as I ran I didn’t know the area at all, but I ran any way bumping into this group of people

“Excuse me” I said backing up

He just looked at me I know I looked a mess my eyes red and puffing from all the crying I’ve been doing And my hair I know my hair was a mess,

“Are you okay” he asked

“I nodded my head yes quickly “Come back” I heard a voice yelled from behind me

I looked back to see Nasir and that dude

I tried to run again but they corned me so I couldn’t move

“Why’d you take off like that’ Nasir asked out of breath

“I don’t wanna trouble you I just rather go home back to Maim” I whipped the sweat off of my brow
“Kyleigh” he said

“What” I rolled my eyes

I looked at the group of people at how their face went soft. I don’t want anyone to feel sorry for me I just wanted to go HOME. I know it wasn’t much there, but it was home a place I felt safe and at peace.

“Come on home babygirl” he said pulling my arm

Why was he being so nice to me, someone he doesn’t even know?

I pulled my arm back backing up looking at the people staring at me I felt naked like a motherless child mainly because I was.

“Come on home” he repeated

“Please go home” the dude I bumped into said looking at me with pleading eyes

I looked at him he doesn’t even know me so why is he giving me advice I don’t need I just needed to go home and I guess leaving was a BIG mistake.

Nasir held his hand out for me to take I looked down at his hand and back at his face it had scared written all  over it I then looked back at the guy he had a mixture of scared and confusion written all over his face. With sadness

I took Nas hand and he pulled me into a tight hug holding my head sniffing was he crying?

“Don’t scare me like that” he said into my hair

“Don’t pull stuff like that again Kyleigh Jones” he pointed his finger at me

“Or I’ll whoop yo tail” he laughed causing me to laugh we both know that wasn’t going to happen

“Now let’s go home” he hugged my shoulder

I turned to that guy and his friends with sorry eyes, before heading back to Nasir’s house   

“Oh my gods are you okay” the lady ran from the door

I just looked at her stupidly “Yea” I mumbled

“I didn’t mean to sound rude I just had a lot on my mind and I had no right to take it out on you poor baby” she smiled

She was doing it what everyone do feeling bad for me and I don’t need it

“Don’t feel back for me” I smiled a little trying to make it less awkward

“I’m sorry” she patted my shoulder

“Let me show you to your room” Nasir said walking up the stairs

We finally reach a door at the far left of the stair case he pushed opened a door reveling a huge room with a big bed   

“I’ll get you some furniture to make it more home like” he smiled

“Um know that’s not necessary this is enough I’ll be gone within a few weeks” I said sitting on the bed

“To go where” he asked

“Iono maybe a hotel or something” I looked down

“Yea right like I’ll let you wonder around New York with no money nor a place to stay” he laughed

My face just grew madder

“Let’s go get you some clothes” he smiled

“I’m okay thank you”

“Dang you really are my daughter you won’t let anyone help you” he laughed

I looked at him I DID look like him that was clear but I wonder how much I really am like him

“You ready” he asked

I nodded my head up and down getting up we walked down stairs where that odd nice woman stood pacing

“I’m about to take Kyleigh to the mall for clothes” he said

She laughed “Yea right like you know anything about teenage girl clothes” she wrapped her arms around his waist looking up at him

“I’ll just let her pick besides I’ll give me a chance to connect with babygirl” he looked down at her kissing her

I finally move off the last step walking to the door “Well dinner will be ready when you guys get home okay” she said

“Ard be back in a few” he kissed her again

“Bye Kyleigh” she smiled at me

“Bye... um” I looked at her so she can state her name 

“Oh Eva” she smiled taking my hand into hers

“Bye Eva” I smiled a little not to be rude

“Hey look at that” Nassir pointed at us then I dropped my hand

“It was good while it lasted” he laughed hugging her trying to catch up with me

I walked over to a car looking at is

“Get in” he order unlocking the door

I got in carefully closing the door behind me I looked over at him he had this big grin on his face

We pulled up within seconds to this mall

I hopped out following behind his screaming fans waving papers and phones

He smiled at them shaking some of their hands and then stopping “Where you wanna go first Leigh” he turned to me

“Um iono” I shrugged

We looked around and finally we went in to A.E, FE21, AIRO, FTL, and Pink and I must say I now had a new wore drove, and it was nice of Nasir to do this for me.

We stopped at the food court to grab something to eat  

 “So you go to school” he asked

“Yup, but only like 2 classes left” I sipped on my drink

“Gotta a boyfriend” he asked straight to the point

I almost chocked on my food me have a boyfriend HA, yea right

“Nope” I shook my head

He looked at me to see if I was telling the truth, which I learned he does a lot

“Yea whatever” he mumbled

“So what about you is um Eva your wife” I bite into my hamburger

“Naw” he laughed

I looked at him like how he looks at me to figure out if I’m telling the truth

“You don’t have to lie to me Nas” I continued to look at him

“I’m not and Nas” he asked with a eyebrow raised

“Yea Nas I don’t know what to call you” I informed him

“Right” he took some fries and stuffed them in his mouth

“Soo what am I suppose to do now” I asked trying to think of something

“Well here’s the plan you will stay with me, I’ll take care of you give you money, food, clothes, and transportation and all you have to do is get good grades I know your smart what you’re in the 11^th grade” he sipped his drink

“I’m in the 12^Th” I answered

He looked at me shocked “Okay that girl book smart” he laughed making me laugh

“…. Back to you we’ll get you a car today” he looked at a watch

“Fine but nothing high end” I said getting up throwing my trash away

---

“Look around pick a car” the sales guy held his arms wide

Nas looked at me “Pick one” he smiled

“Iono anything about cars” I looked back at him

“Well we’ll get you swagged out like your old man” he laughed   

I was sitting in the lobby watching him sign the papers he said he had a perfect car for me so I don’t know what it looks like or to expect

“You ready” he stood up knocking me out my ocean of thoughts

“Yea” I stood up walking outside coming in contact with this beast car

“Nasir I said nothing high end’ I looked at him

“It’s not” he laughed

“Yes it is it’s a freaking Ferrari” I yelled

He and the sales guy laughed “I thought you didn’t know anything about cars”

I kissed my lips “Don’t stress Leigh just think of it as a late sweet 16 present”

“Fine” he handed me the keys

I hopped in the car riding down to the house behind his car, pulling into the drive way

“Hey Honey” Eva spared her arms wide so Nas could hug her   

“Hey baby you see Kyleigh new car” he asked she nodded her head smiling at me

“You hungry baby” he asked

“Um Naa not really, but thank you” I gave her a weak smile

“Well I’ll get Meek to take your bags up to your room” Nas said popping the trunk

“Oh speaking of room… there’s a surprise up there for you hope you enjoy it” Eva smiled

“Thank you” I returned the smile

---

I helped meek get some bags out the car even though he kept saying he had it I knew he didn’t plus I didn’t want him to run up and down the stair because of me.

I walked up the steps following behind him walking into this cute room along with the bathroom,

“Eva” I yelled down the steps

“Yes honey” she yelled back

“Thank you”

“No problem honeys enjoy it” I could tell she was smiling

I walked fully into the room seeing ever detail she put into the whole thing it makes me feel…. Special my mom use to do things like this for me before she started, and now-a-days you would have thought I was the parent.

“Everything good” meek asked me

“Yup thanks” I smiled at him

“No problem that what I’m here for”

I looked at him weird “No you’re here to protect Nasir not carry my bags” I smiled

“But whatever NASIR has planned for me to do then I do it and if that’s helping his baby girl with her bags then that’s what I’m going to do” he smiled

“Well thanks again” I said placing some bags on the bed

“It’s my job” he said before leaving

I started to unpack my thing because I can’t stand clutter, even though we stayed in a crappy apartment I always made sure that it was clean, my mother would never really be there to witness it tho.

“Knock-knock” Nas said walking into the room

I laughed to myself “Can I come in” he asked

“Yea it’s your house” I laughed

He kissed his lips “Man I came in here to tell you that Eva was going to take you to school tomorrow”

I shook my head no “No I want you to take me”

He looked at me as his lips turned into a smile “Really’ he asked
“Yea I want you to take me” I said sitting on the bed pulling my knees to my chest biting down on my inner check

“Okay” he smiled kissing my forehead

“…. Good night babygirl” he smiled again before closing the door

So this was the plan: To get away from my old life that my mother had planned for me, and to see my father that no one had mentioned that he was Nas to me, finish my last year of high school getting my life together on my own,. I sighed heavily thinking if this plan was going to work, but no one knows unless you try it I guess
