So many things had came & went summer was over , Halloween , Thanksgiving. Now Christmas was around the corner and nobody was really in the Christmas spirit. Everybody was on edge just as they thought the storm was over it had just began. That day when Dess got that call everybody's world was in shambles. Alisha didn't make it , she was shot 3 times. Once in her arm and twice in her back. The last bullet that she was shot with hit a main artery and they couldn't stop the bleeding. Dominique well he was shot in his back as well along with both his legs. He have to learn how to walk all over again. He is in intensive physical therapy. He didn't take Alisha passing away well at all. He took it the hardest , she was the only thing he had left. She was a mother figure to him and for somebody to take her out his life had him furious.
He was mute , wouldn't talk to nobody. Somebody had to be with him 24/7. Jayda offered but Mama Harris , Dell , Taj & Lailoni didn't think that would be a good idea. Especially with her being only 17 at the moment plus her going back to school.
So he is living with Mama Harris until he is back on his feet.
"Baby , where you at ?" Mama Harris yelled as she walked through the door
"Mama only place I can be" he said kind of irritated
He was used to moving the way he wanted to move so being in the position was starting to irk him.
"Don't get snappy with me little boy. Now why haven't you been talking to Jay?"
"I don't wanna talk to her"
"Well if you don't mind me asking why don't you ? I thought you liked her"
"I thought I did but every time she around I get distracted this is all her fault. She can't be around me if she going to distract me" he said shaking his head
Mama Harris couldn't believe what she was hearing. These young kids didn't know how to go about things.
"So let me get this straight , you've been avoiding her because you feel like it's her fault ?"
He shook his head "yeah"
"Did she pick up the gun and shoot you & Alisha ?"
"No but-"
"It's no but's only person at fault here is the person that shot y'all. She actually likes you a lot. All she wants is for you to be better and your sitting here blaming her for something she had no part of. I think you need to call her and apologize about how you've been treating her"
"I don't think she wanted to talk me , I said some hurtful stuff the last time we spoke"
"What did you say boy?"
Flashback
It was the day after Alisha funeral and this was the first time he had cried. He didn't cry at her funeral or at the hospital but once he got by hisself he couldn't take it nomore.
Knock knock
"Hey can I come in ?" Jayda asking peeking her head in
He just looked at her and went back to playing with his fingers. He was over everybody coming in his face acting like they cared about him and Alisha. He had seen so many of his fake ass family he just wanted to be alone. The last person he wanted to see was Jayda with it being her fault and all.
"So your still not talking?" He just stared at her
He damn near loved her , but every time she comes around his mind gets foggy. That day everything happened he was in the middle of texting Jayda. Usually before he get out his car wherever he is he watch his surroundings, he look up and down the street just to see if anybody is lurking. Today was different, he had just got done at the shop and he told Alisha he would take her home. So that's what he did , but when they got to her house they both just got out the car and once they got by the steps of her house they heard car tires screeching and bullets start to fly. He tried to pull Alisha down but he wasn't fast enough. So in his mind it was all of Jayda's fault.
