The sound of the clock ticking was making it hard for me to concentration. My mind was everywhere else instead of this midterm. It had been two days since I killed Roddy. Just thinking about it made my sick. The fact that I really took someone's life.
If it was up to me I would be in my bed crying myself to sleep. But both Baby and Booby suggested that I should start going back to class because I was already going to be questioned for his where bouts since he was my boyfriend.
Looking down at my test I had yet to answer a single question. It had been a good 40 minutes and all I managed to do was write my first name. Picking the pen up I tried to read question one again but I couldn't.
"Okay that's time." The professor said as I quickly got up grabbing my purse. I had just failed my midterm and that was the least of my worries. Walking out the school baby, I spotted Baby's white Maybach. Quickly walking towards it I got into the car.
"You good? Fuck you walking like that? Mad suspect." He said as I put my seat belt up biting my nails.
"What do you expect?" I blacked while turning to look at him as he just kept quiet and pulled off.
"I killed a man!" I said as Baby stopped driving and pulled over.
"It was either you or him. Self defense. Walking like you hiding from the police or some shit. You don't have to make shit hot." He said as I just sat there quiet with tears in my eyes. Even thought what he was saying was true it didn't make what I was feeling any better.
"Are they going to tell the family it was me?" I asked looking at Baby.
"You asking to much questions. Just know you gon be good." He said before pulling off again as I shook my head.
That night Booby ended up coming over. I begged him not to call the police because I had shot Roddy multiple times. They wasn't going to believe it was self defense. Plus I don't want people to know that I'm a legit murder, so me and Booby literally argued for a good hour. But after I had calmed down he explained to how they have camera in the house that caught everything.
I still had to go to the police station. It was so cold and I was scared out my fucking mind that night. After hours of me sitting in the interrogation room I was finally released.
The police couldn't arrest me because the cameras was all the proof I needed. And Because Booby was that nigga he was able to keep my name far aware from the case. His Lawyer even had the detectives on the case sign some type of NDA. If Roddy family wanted questions on who the shooter was the police wasn't allowed to give them that information. All they could tell them was that he broke into someone's home the person had a registered gun and killed him.
Looking up, I noticed Baby had pulled up to my grandmother's house. Both me and Gia had been staying with my moms mother. This is where my Dad wanted me to go and Gia didn't want to leave me by myself.
"Look at me, I know what you feeling. I've felt that. But you really had no choice Dior. He wasn't letting down. I'm not mad at you and I know your family ain't mad or disappointed. You have mad people who's rooting for you, who care for you. Who want you to be great! You handled your business shawty. You gotta stop crying and be a big girl. The shit happened you gotta move on. The more you sit and think about this shit you gon fall into a depression and trust me you don't want that. If you don't feel comfortable talking to us, talk to a therapist." He said while wiping my face and grabbing it pulling me closer to him as he gave me a quick kiss.
Nodding my head I remembered that I just failed my damn mid term and the tears started again. "What happens now?" He asked as I tried to stop crying. "I just failed my midterm." I said as he started laughing.
"It's not funny." I said as he shook his head. "I ain't never met a motherfucker who cried cause they failed an exam. And you just caught me off guard with that. My fault, it ain't funny. Just email the professor tell 'em you going through some shit. Show a tit." He joked causing me to roll my eyes and hit him in his chest.
"Annoying." I said wiping my tears as both our laughter dyed down. Looking over at Baby I was grateful for him. He was here as soon as I got out the police station and hasn't left my side since.

"Thank you." I said as he look up at me. "You ain't gotta thank me. Told you I got you for life and I meant that. You family, forever gon be family." He said as I nodded my head.
"Come on you got a surprise inside." He said causing me to look at him weirdly. "What you talking about?" I asked as he just smirked and walked towards the house.
"Nah fuck that shit, nigga is cold. Easton carry that damn team." I heard the familiar voice. Walking in the living room my whole family was there.
"Easton!" I shouted running towards him like a little as kid giving him a hug.
"Damn with the fuck am I cold turkey?" I heard my dad say as everyone laughed. I don't think anyone understands how much I missed my brother. He be so busy and we don't ever really have time to talk.
"Came out my pussy and I don't get no damn hug." My mom said as I laughed and went to hug her and my dad.
"Congratulations bozo." I said as he smirked.
"I think it's a boy too." He said as we turned looking at India. Her stomach was really huge. This was exactly what I needed to be surrounded by my family.
"Where Booby? Gotta talk to him and You." My Dad said pointing towards Baby. I didn't know what they had to talk about but I'm sure it had to do with me.
