" Ma'am, I Need to know what happened" Angel was scared and shaking.
"My Boyfriend... H-he Was... was coming over and soebody tried to run in my house and rob us. And they beat him with a bat."
"Okay ma'am we will be right back."

"You okay baby? i am sooo sorry..." Deyvone just woke from a 2 day coma.
"You Didn't do anything baby, i forgive you."
"What about Cece? Do you forgive her?"
"Look, i know that's yo bestie and all, but i'm getting her ass! She gone PAY!"
"SHE WAS ONLY PROTECTING ME!"
"Well, i hope you know how to protect her ass!" They sat in silence for about 20 minutes.
"Well i have to go now!"
"Where you fenna go?"
"To the library, ill be back tomorrow." she gave him a kiss and left.
Domo was waiting for her outside.
"Man ma, where you been? I haven't seen you since that day. I was starting to think you didn't wanna fuck with me nomore."
"You wouldn't believe all the shit that happened." She started telling Domo all that happened. She was crying hysterically.
"I Can tell you haven't spoken to nobody about this. Baby don't cry everything will be okay Trust me!"
"But that's not all. He said he was gone make Cece pay. He was gone hurt her, And i know he WILL Do It. He is fucking crazy."
"Where she at?" Angel never even thought to talk to her bestfriend or find out where she was at.
"OH MY GOD, i'm fenna call her!"
She dialed Cece's Number and had a horrific feeling in the pic of her stomach.
"Hey girllll.!" Angel's heart felt SO much lighter!
"Ce, where you at?"
"Walking to the corner store."
"On 5th?" She was in tears.
"Yeah girllll... Fenna go get me some munchies! Hahaaa... Whats Wro..."
"GO HOME! Run home NOW Ce. Ill be there in 10 Minutes. Just..."
POP POP POP.
The sound was so loud Domo heard it through the phone.
"CECE!!!" Angel Yelled. "GO DOMO GO!"
Domo pulled off quick as hell. They made it to 5th street in about 16 minutes due to Traffic. But to their surprise, the Police and Ambulance was already there.
"No No NO!!!!"
Angel ran out the car before it even came to a complete stop. In her head all she could think about was praying to GOD that her bestfriend isn't dead. She saw the lifeless body on the floor and began screaming.
A girl.
She noticed that the girl did Not have the butterfly tattoo on her ankle. It was not Cece. She looked over and saw her Bestfriend sitting by the ambulance crying. She ran over to her as fast as she could and as soon as Cece looked up and saw her she got up fast as well. They collided so hard they almost knocked each other over. They began crying on one another. When they stopped Angel noticed the stitches on her face.
"The bullet slightly grazed my face." Cece explained through tears.
"Oh My goddd..!!" They started crying again. Angel felt so guilty. Her bestfriend almost died today and it was all because she couldn't take her ass whooping that night. That's all she could think about.
"Who was that other girl?" Angel watched as they body bagged her.
"i Don't know, She caught one straight through the head. They said she was 24.... And girl, the worst thing is..." Cece couldn't control her crying. "She was with her babies. Walking them in a stroller."
"Oh My Fucking God!" That made Angel cry even more. "Ce, i am sooo sorry this is all my fault."
"Angel what are you talking about?"
"It was Deyvone. I Know it. It had to be him."
"Well what Bitches do he got shooting at me?"
"Oh... i don't know." Angel was now confused because Deyvone's only sister lived all the way in California. And they never saw him really interact with any other females. Domo walked up to them.
" 'A' Look at this girl walking up to us..."
"You okay Ma?" Domo asked Angel.
"Yeah. This is Cece." Angel replied. They both had stopped crying.
"Hey honey, i'm glad you okay." Cece just stared at her.
"Y'all know each other?"
"Yeah, Ce..." Angel Didn't want to tell Cece who Domo was because she KNEW Cece was going to force it. "This is Domo. Why you staring Ce?"
"She is fine as fuck. Just like you said girl."
Angel's cheeks turned rosy red.
"Oh my god, i can't believe you said that."
"Thanks Hun." Domo laughed.
"I'm ready to go." Cece said.
"Can you leave yet?" Domo asked.
"Nah, i gotta give a report about what happened.
"Okay."
"You need me to stay with you?" Angel asked.
"Yeah ma, We can stay so i can take her were she needs to go. Plus i wanna smoke this blunt with yall cause i know yall stressing."
"Okay"
"You can come with me Ma'am. This shouldn't take long."
Cece walked away with the police.
