Chapter 5 begins

     Charles went back into his house not sure if Serena and Hays were correct in taking the man from California and he felt very sorry for him. Leah was sitting up in the bed staring at Charles as he quietly walked into the bedroom. He looked at her as he sat on the end of the bed he wanted to cry but he smiled sweetly and spoke to her "Leah, I am sorry we had meet each other again like this, but I missed you so much I worried every day you were gone and I must admit I thought you were gone forever, but now we have you back and I hope you will allow me to help you." Charles said as he reached out to hold her hand.    
         
     Leah sat there as if frozen no emotions on her face, her eyes like two stagnant pools of grey as she looked at Charles as if he were not even there and he heard her whisper "Why do you care. Y'all should've left me for dead."
     "Leah, you are my friend, you and your sister I loved you both as if you were my family and as you well know, I don't have any friends and you are the only family I have left." he said sadly a pain in his heart as he squeezed her hand.
      "What about Xation?" she said his name tasting like bitter ashes in her mouth.
      "What about him?"
      "Your loyalty is to him not me." she said rolling over turning her back to Charles.
      Charles sighed gently rubbing her back not knowing what to say. Then Leah sat up half way coughing loudly. "Leah?" He said holding her hair back as she leaned over the bed and vomited all over the tile floor.
