Twin Secrets

Concerned Of The Life

                
~SCENE CONTINUED~

"Go ahead, then. I got people over badder than you."
Unknown: "I see you got company"
"Damn"

Bobby: "Aaliyah, tell me what's going on!"
"Come outside then, I'll introduce you to my people!"
Unknown: "You mean that pop star mess you and your friend got going on?"
"Oh I understand, your jealous"

Unknown: "Not just you and your friend. All of them gangsta, the sweet heart, the rebel,  they're the biggest hypocrites of all"
"Yeah, we may agree on that, but at least they strapped"

I turned around slowly and the killer started swinging at me and Bobby with the knife. Bobby took my hand and we ran as fast as we could.

We ran and ran until we looked back he was gone. Me and Bobby hugged each other

"I can't believe that just happened"
Bobby: "Yeah me either, we gotta go right now before he finds us again"
We ran all the way to my house and put the house on lock down.

We ran up to my room and locked the door and windows. I turned on the tv and laid down then Bobby laid down also and he laid his head on my stomach which was so cute to me.

I started playing with his hair as we watched the movie "Pretty Woman"

Bobby: "Aaliyah, I'm really happy to have you"
"Same here, but as much as I'd love to sit here and mourn the dearly departed but"

I sat up and held Bobby's head gently then laid his head back on my lap causing him to look up at me
Bobby: "But?"

"Can we please get back to the issue at hand here? We almost got killed"

Bobby: "I think we should call the cops"
"No, in horror movies, the cops are totally useless. They don't believe the victims until it's too late"

Bobby: "It works that way in real life too"
"That's exactly what I'm saying, listen we're black, that means something, we the ability to think before doing it without knowing"
Bobby: "Thats true"

I laid back down in exhaustion and sighed
"I just don't know anymore"

Bobby sat up and looked into my eyes
Bobby: "Babygirl listen to me, we are gonna be okay, I'll do anything in my power to keep you safe and alive"

I sat up and gave him the biggest hug ever
"Thank you Bobby, your the best"

Bobby: "Alright young cow, I gotta go"
"Okay, just be safe out there"
Bobby: "I will. Love"
"Love"

We gave each other hugs and out the door he went.
I turned on the radio and Bobby's song was playing. I started my head to the beat, the song is hot.

                       ~15 MINUTES LATER~

Footsteps can be heard from downstairs.
I locked myself in the closet with a knife I got from under the bed, my mom put it there in case anything happened.

The footsteps kept getting closer and closer until my door open.

Mom: "Aaliyah?"
I jumped out of the closet and hugged my mom

"I'm so glad it was you, I thought you were the Ghostface"
Mom: "It's just me baby, it's okay"
"Have you heard from Day-Day?"

Mom: "No, I thought he was at work?"
"Nah, I called the store and the worker said he left two hours from then because that's when his shift started"

Mom: "Oh god, my baby"
She started pacing back and forth with her hand on her forehead in stress

"Mom please sit down and take a minute to think about it, please"
She sat down and buried her head in her hands. I sat down next to her and started rubbing her back for comfort

"It's okay mom, he's probably just hanging out with his friends, somewhere"
Mom: "God I hope so"

She stood up and gave me a kiss on the forehead
Mom: ""Goodnight Babygirl, I love you"
"I love you too"

My mom calls me Babygirl when she gets emotional and concerned.

I changed into my pajamas, turned off the tv and called it a night.
