Pieces of Me Pua Ramona (read me a book txt) 📖

out there.I grab my wallet and an extra jacket just in case I find her. I make sure everything’s locked up. Reese shows up fifteen minutes later.

“Have you heard from her?” He asks.

“Not since she left. I sent her a text and she hasn’t responded back.” I update him.

“Do you still have the spare key on your truck keys?” Reese asks.

“Yeah” I say knowing she can get back into the house if she comes back before we do.

“It’s getting pretty bad out man we’ve got to go now” Reese says. We both walk to his car and get in. “Where are we going to look first?”

I have no fucking idea so I say, “Let’s head to Michael’s first. Emma’s there so she might’ve gone there.” Reese doesn’t ask any questions, just starts the car and begins to drive. I send Sina another text and I get nothing from her. I’m getting ready to lose my shit. My phone starts ringing and it’s Mama. I haven’t spoken to her for a couple of days. I know she’s upset so I figured I’d give her some space. But seeing that it was her calling calms my nerves a little. “Hey Mama” I answer.

“Hey baby. Are you busy?” she asks. I wanted to talk to her but I can’t right now because I have to find Sina.

“Mama, I can’t talk right now.”

“Is everything okay?” she asks.

I take a deep breath and say, “No Mama, I’m out looking for Sina.”

Mama sighs and asks “What did you do now Son?” I hate that she automatically assumes that I did something, but she has every reason to assume that.

“I didn’t do anything Mama, something’s wrong and she’s not telling me anything.”

“Maybe she’s missing her brother and the baby,” she says. I thought the same thing, but I know that isn’t it.

“No Mama. She would’ve said something if that was it. She said something that had nothing to do with Micah or our son, but i have no idea what she meant.” I can hear Mama sniffle.

“Is there anything you want me to do?” She asks.

My heart aches. “Can you let me know if for some reason she stops over there?” I say.

“I will. Does Rita know anything?”

“No Mama. They have enough to worry about. Reese is with me right now so we should be able to find her” I tell her.

“Okay sweetie. Keep me updated please” she says with a sigh.

“Love you Mama.”

“I love you too Elijah.”

I check my phone again after I end the call and she still hasn’t text or called me back. My heart feels heavy and I know something is definitely fucking off. “Reese, I need to find her.”

“I know man. We’ll find her” he says. I have so many thoughts going on in my head and all I can do is sit there and pray that she’s okay, because if anything happens to her I don’t think I’ll be able to breathe or live a life without her.

We pull into Michael’s driveway and I feel sick to my stomach. She isn’t here. We get out of the car and walk to the front door and knock a couple of times. Michael answers the door and says, “Hey man, you here to pick Emma up?”

“Can I talk to you really quick?”I say, shaking my head to answer his question.

“I’ll go sit with Emma'' Reese says and he walks inside as Michael steps out onto the porch.

“ Is everything okay?” Michael asks.

“Have you heard from Sina?” I say with panic all over my face.

He looks at me with worry in his eyes and says “No, I haven’t heard from her. Why? Is she okay?”

I put both hands in my pockets and say “She wasn’t okay when she left the house.”

He looks at me and asks “Did you guys have a fight?”

I swear, if I get asked that again I’m going to blow the fuck up.

“No. She broke down today and I don’t know what triggered it. I thought it would’ve been because of her brother and the baby, but that’s not it.”

“Maybe she needed to be alone?” he says.

I shake my head and say “No, not Sina. You and I both know that she’s an open book. I know something was bothering her. She always makes sure that she deals with anything before it gets out of hand.”

He nods his head. “Yeah, you’re right. Have you tried her parents house?'' he asks.

“No, she wouldn’t want Rita to worry about her. Do you think you can keep Emma tonight? I don’t want her to be home when her mother shows up. She’s seen enough of the heartache, and seeing Sina how she is might not be good for her'' I say.

“That’s fine with me. Could you let me know when you guys find her?” he asks.

“I will man.” I promise him.

Before he walks back inside he says, “Thank you for being there for Sina. We all know she could use a little bit of saving. Even when she doesn’t think she needs it, I know she could use some of it right now. She may think she’s okay, but I know she’s not. Find her Eli.”

I feel my eyes burning and I can’t let him know that I’m hurting. My head and heart are a fucking mess, I don’t know what to think and it makes it even worse because I haven’t heard from Sina. Reese and I walk back to the car and he stops me before we get in.

“We’ll find her man, maybe she just needed to get out for a little while on her own.” He puts his hand on my shoulder and says “Keep your head straight, man.”

We get in the car and my phone starts ringing. “Is it her?” he asks.

I press ignore and say “It’s just Becca.”

She calls me four more times and Reese says “Maybe you should answer it.”

“I don’t have the time to deal with her right now Reese.” I say.

Becca rings my phone again and
