Shattered

On the right path

*erykah pov

I woke up the next morning with my alarm clock ringing in my ear. I looked down at my naked body to see the dried blood on my sheets and on my skin as well. I groaned with every single inch of pain that ranned through my body especially my legs. It was severely hard to even get up fully out the bed to turn the alarm clock on but i managed to do it. I stripped the bed entirley and folded the sheets up. I then stripped out of the dirty clothes on my body and placed it along with the sheets. I walked over to my dresser to pull out some clothes and turned on the shower. My body continued to ache until i let the hot water relax my body i looked down on the tile floor to see nothing but dark reddish water. i took a deep breath hoping Patrick didn't damage something serious. I stayed in the shower for about almost 40 minutes and finally the bleeding stopped. The pain was still there but it wasn't so hetic 45 minutes ago. It was fine enough to get me through what i needed to do. Patrick had no idea i recorded him and when i skip school and head straight off to the police station it's over for patrick.

once i was fully ready to go i grabbed the camcorder, put my hoodie over my head and some sun shades on and headed out to my truck. It didn't take me long to arrive to the police station but once i did i knew it was no turning back. i walked into the building, and headed to the main office. "Can i speak to detective Riles?"i asked the lady behind the glass door. i could tell she was wondering why my face seemed so swollen but i wasn't worried about that. "He's not in right now, i think he comes in at 10:00 but your more than welcome to wait a while if you like?" she asked. i nodded slowly and walked over to the bench and took my seat. My phone vibrated and showing it was Reagan, i answered it. "hello?" i cleared my throat. " OH MY GOD WELL IF IT ISN'T MRS. MIA QUEEN, ERYKAH WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN BOO, YOU KNOW IVE BEEN MISSING YOU TO PIECES!!!!!" she yelled. "i missed you too but why are you yelling?" i asked. " oh im sorry, i'm just so excited that you picked up my phone calls, i also heard about greg, how are you hanging?" she asked.

i didn't know what to say. Nothing but thoughts of Patrick ranned through my head. "Im... actually im not really doing well at all" i shrugged. "Well where are you?!? do you need me to come to your house for any type of support. I can take you to school, or pick you up-"

"No Reagan don't even worry about it, im going to make it, I'm not comming to school so can you atleast pick up my school work for me so i won't fall behind?" i asked her

"ill do it for you Erykah, don't you worry yourself over none of that me and chyna will make sure your school work is on point. You just rest your soul and take a couple of more days to get yourself together" she said. "Thanks and tell everyone that i'm hanging in there and ill be comming back as soon as i can" i told her." oh it's no rush boo, you take your time erykah we love you so much call us if you need anything" she replied

"i will, ill talk to you when i can" i told her. "okay bye love" and with that she hanged up.

I took a deep sigh and rested my head against the cold glass window behind me and felt myself dosing off. The feeling of being rocked back and forth vigorously startled me out of my slumber. i woke up to a blurry vision of detective riley. "Erykah i thought you were dead for a minute?" he said. "no..no.. i just was in a deep sleep, i didn't really get that much sleep tonight" i said rubbing my eyes. "well what are you doing here?" he asked i took a deep breath. "I know who killed My boyfriend Greg" i answered. His eyebrows lifted up in shock. "Oh do you? well let's go somewhere more private so you can tell me." he lead me all the way down the hall into a different room from last time. The room was much more bigger and by the looks of it, it seemed more as an office. I walked in and took my seat right in front of the detective as he sat down. "so who is it?" he asked.

"Patrick Peterson." i answered as i placed down my camcorder.
