"Hey, Jude, don't make it bad, Take a sad song and make it better" -First line of "Hey Jude" by the Beatles
"I get by with a little help from my friends" -John Lennon
It was the saddest day of Marcus McClouds' young five year old life, Fox and Krystal were getting a divorce, all they did was fight and Fox was having an apparent affair with another
woman. Marcus always had someone to talk to though, Fox's friend Jay, Marcus would always call him whenever he felt sad and they'd talk. One day Fox and Krystal were arguing and
Marcus was listening. "OH! IT'S ALWAYS ME! I'M THE GUILTY ONE!" yelled Fox at the top of his lungs, "YEAH YOU ARE BECAUSE YOU CHEATED ON ME YOU BASTARD! I DON'T EVEN KNOW
WHY I TRUSTED YOU WHEN I EVEN BORE YOUR CHILD!" Krystal yelled back, and Marcus in the living room began to cry, "YOU KNOW WHAT FOX?! MARCUS DOESN'T EVEN NEED YOU, I
SWEAR JAY IS A BETTER FATHER THAN YOU! SO ARE SLIPPY, FALCO AND THE OTHERS!" exclaimed Krystal, who started to pack things, "WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU GOING?!" yelled Fox, "A
MOTEL!" Krystal angrily replied, "AND I'M TAKING MARCUS WITH ME!" but Marcus didn't hear this part as he was on the phone with Jay and Marcus was sadder than normal.
"And-and-my-m-m-mommy said we're gonna stay in a m-m-motel!" cried Marcus, "Listen Marcus if you want, you can stay with me, Miyu and Riley until things cool down, alright buddy?"
asked Jay, "OK I'll ask my m-mommy!" cried Marcus.
As luck would have it Krystal was walking downstairs and she saw Marcus with the phone in his hand, "Who were you talking to?" asked Krystal, *sniff* *sniff* JAY! I wanna stay with him,
Miyu and Riley until you stop fighting with daddy!" cried Marcus, "Give me the phone" said Krystal, "Jay? Listen, I'll let Marcus stay with you, but I don't want that... hold on" "Marcus honey
cover your ears" said Krystal, "OK Mommy" replied Marcus as he did what he was told. "Now, I don't want that son of a *censored* to see Marcus, it's *censored* bad enough he's made
his *censored* son an emotional wreck! I *censored* swear I hate that *censored* mother *censored*!" yelled Krystal as she motioned to Marcus he could remove his hands from his
after that little scenario Krystal packed Marcus's clothes, and she walked him to Jay and Miyu's place, Fox was watching them from the window, "Oh so he's going to stay with Jay and
Miyu?!.... Well at least my son won't have to hear us fight every waking moment" Fox thought to himself.
As they approached Jay and Miyu's, Krystal got down to her son's eye level; "Now Marcus, you're gonna stay here for a while OK? I want you to be good and do what Jay and Miyu tell you
OK? I love you and don't worry daddy will be out of our lives real soon" said Krystal as she hugged Marcus and walked him to the door. Marcus, suitcase in hand was a little worried
though, he hated to see his parents fight but he was going to be with Jay and Miyu and their son Riley, whom were thick as theives, Krystal knocked on the door and after a few seconds
Jay answered, "Hey Krystal, hey Marcus, Riley is in his room why don't you go upstairs and play video games with him?" asked Jay as Marcus smiled and ran upstairs to see his friend Riley,
"OK Jay here's Marcus' cothes and his blanket, Jay you don't know how grateful I am right now" said Krystal as she began to shed a few tears, "Krystal... it's alright don't worry about it,
he's gonna be safe here and he'll be fed and loved just as much as Riley is" replied Jay, "Oh you're such a sweetheart!" said Krystal as she gave Jay a hug, "Now you have my cellphone
number right?" asked Krystal, "Yeah me and Miyu have it don't worry, you can call us anytime OK?" said Jay. "I just want to go upstairs and say goodbye to Marcus OK?" asked Krystal,
"Sure come on in" replied Jay, Krystal went upstairs and saw Marcus and Riley playing video games, "Marcus come here" said Krystal as she dropped to one knee, "Mommy's going to stay
in a motel and daddy is at the house, OK? I do not want you to talk to daddy, if you see him turn your head OK?" asked Krystal as she kissed Marcus on the cheek, "OK Mommy" replied
Marcus as he hugged her, "Remember Jay, do not let Fox acknowledge Marcus" said Krystal, "Don't worry" replied Jay. Krystal gave Marcus one last hug and kiss as she let him go and
then she left.
