I quickly jump out my sleep from a nightmare i had, where Malik was getting hurt and i was just standing there letting him.

I was breathing heavy and sweating. Something just doesn't feel right and i pick my phone up calling Malik's lawyer.

After about 5 rings, he answers.

"uh hello?" I hear his groggy voice.

"hey sorry if it's early, this is Diamond. Malik's girlfriend. Have you seen him recently? he hasn't called since yesterday im worried." I say.

He sighs. "um Diamond, he was put into Solitary confinement"

"what??!" I say before he could finish.

"he spit on a CO .." He says.

My eyes goes wide. "why?? there must've been a reason" i say.

"him and a guard was going back and forth and then the guard took him out. then, next thing i know his status was in confinement" he says.

"im going up to the jail and im getting him out of there!" i say angrily.

"um Mrs.Diamond..i don't think that's a good idea" He says.

"and why the fuck not??" I say.

"it could make things worst for Malik, and we don't need him angry once he find out your locked up too" Malik lawyer says.

"i know they are hurting him! i know how the system works especially when theres a cop involved!" i say angrily.

"i understand but Malik would not like you getting involved in this..ill handle it" He says.

"do it asap..thank you" I say before hanging up.

I sigh and throw my phone down. i feel stuck and suffocated, i feel like there's nothing i can do to help Malik.

I walk to my bathroom and wash my face and brush my teeth since im up now. After, I go into the kitchen and make me 2 pp&j sandwiches on toasted bread.

I feel so lonely sitting down eating just thinking about how Malik may feel. For almost a year it's been me and him, now it seem like these past couple months we haven't had more than 3 weeks together.

my life is shit but i have to wake up everyday and post when i don't want to or have the energy to.

I jump out my thoughts when my phons starts ringing, i look at contact name that read Jennifer. I roll my eyes and groan; turning the ringer off.

"leave me the fuck alone" I say.

I get up from my couch and walk to my mini bar table and grab the casa. I pour me a shot, taking it then doing that 5 more time in a row.

Lets just say in 20 minutes i was fucked up.

omniscient POV

Diamond is tumbling over everywhere as she puts her clothes on, to go drive to the jail Malik is at and confront them about the foul play that's been happening.

Obviously it's not a good idea but she not in her right state of mind, all she is worried about is Malik.

Diamond grabs her keys and head downstairs; out of her apartment. On her way there once of the desk employee that knows her says hey.

she trips over a little bit almost stepping on her own feet and smiles at the worker.

"Heyy pete" She slurs.

he chuckles and scrunches his eyebrows as he walk from around the desk then to her.

"you drunk? at 8 in the morning?" He laughs.
