Imani, Ebony, & Michaela sat in court listening to the judges verdict. They sat behind Michelle, who extended her trip just to be their attorney.
The three bitches who pressed charges sat on the opposite side. They were bruised up and sore and it had already been 2 weeks.
"You all will be charged with trespassing and assault, but because it was self defense, you all will be in prison for 2 more weeks," the judge said, looking at he girls over his glasses. They all sighed in relief.
"OPEN THAT CELL LET MY GIRLS OUTTA JAIL," Naomi yelled, causing the court to laugh.
"LOOK AT MY FUCKING NOSE," the darkskin one yelled at the judge, reacting to the crowd laughing.
"You will be removed if you can't keep your composure Ms.Knowles," the judge said. She sat down while groaning.
Imani looked at her and stuck out her tongue, causing her friends to laugh. She rolled her eyes in response.
"But as for you three, your being sued for defamation of character and being charged for assault and battery," they widened their eyes.
"It was Zariah's idea," the tall one said, pointing at the lightskin.
"Bitch shut up or you next," she said, putting her finger in the girls face. The girl got up, punching her in the face, before they were pulled apart.
"ORDER IN THE COURT." the judge yelled, banging the gavel.
"You were going to prison for a year, but that little altercation added up to five years. Case closed," the judge banged the gavel.
The girls screamed, causing commotion within the court. They tried to attack the judge as he walked off the podium. The police caught them before they could attack.
They escorted them to the back. They let the other girls linger around so that they could talk to their families.
"Thank you ma," all three girls said simultaneously, grabbing Michelle into a group hug.
"Y'all welcome, y'all like my kids now. But I will be gone by the time y'all get out. I'll be back tho," she said to them, hugging them back.
"Imma miss youuuu," Nassir whined, coming up behind her. Causing them to laugh.
"Boy I will be back," she said, giving him a hug.
"Ughh, why can't you to get out todayy?" Naomi whined, falling on Imani. They started laughing.
"I said the same thing," Imani said, hugging Naomi. She felt something wet on her back. She looked up, seeing Naomi silently crying.
"Baby, it's okay. I'll be home soon," Imani said, wiping her tears. She pecked her lips, while Adonis came walking up behind them, shaking his head.
"Naomi, you said you wasn't gone cry," Adonis said, holding his laugh. Imani smacked his arm, making him fix his face.
"I don't give a fuck what I said," she said, holding Imani tighter.
"Girl come on, keep your composure," her mom walked up, smacking her butt. She pulled her away, walking her out of the court room.
"Imaniiii," Adonis whined, pulling her to him. He hugged her while rubbing her butt.
"Yes Adonis?" She said, hugging his neck.
"Why you had the break her nose? Now I gotta be away from you for two more weeks," he playfully sighed, causing her to laugh. He kissed her all over her face, causing her to giggle.
Nassir walked passed them with his hands on his hips, shaking his head. He walked up to Michaela picking her up & spinning her.
"If I run now, we'll make it to Mexico by 10:00," he whispered in her ear, making her laugh.
"I'd rather do the time baby," Michaela laughed out, making him throw his head back & groan.
"Ughhh, you hate me that bad?" he asked, putting her down. He held on to her waist tho.
"You know I love you," she said, fixing the collar of his shirt.
"See, look at me. I been lost without you girl," he said, pulling her into a hug, laying his head on her shoulder. She looked behind him, seeing Ebony looking at Idris with anger in her eyes.
"So you mean to tell me, Zariah aborted your baby and then faked the pregnancy?" Ebony asked, looking up at him. He nodded, his eyes started to water.
"Aww baby," she said, pulling him to lay on her chest. He held on to her waist, silently crying.
"I was so excited to have my lil girl mann," he cried into her chest. She rubbed his face, wiping his tears away.
"I know baby, I know," she said, he sat up looking in her eyes.
"I love you," he said.
"I love you too," she smiled at him.
"Times up," a officer said. The girls walked to the front of the court room, waving at their men as they were escorted to the back.

"I wanna go slap her ass so bad," Ebony said to her friends, as they sat at a table in the corner during lunch.
"Let's go," Michaela said, pushing her tray away from her. She was about to stand up.
"No. We cannot get no more time," Imani said, eyeing Zariah from across the cafeteria.
"Girl I'm not. I'm not fighting no bitch that jump every-time I look her way," Ebony said, cracking herself up. Her friends started laughing too.
They immediately stopped when Kimberly & Teyana came and stood at their table, looking scared and shit.
"What?" Imani asked, looking up at them.
"We just came to apologize to Ebony," Teyana said, hanging her head low.
"How y'all jumping people and then coming to apologize?" Michaela asked, getting upset.
"Zariah asked us to, she was our friend at one point," Kimberly said.
"What's going on over here?" Zariah asked, coming up behind the girls.
"None of your damn business," Ebony said, standing up. Zariah backed up, nodding her head.
"I was talking to them," Zariah said, looking spooked. Ebony laughed in response, nodding her head.
"But like I said, what are y'all doing over here?" She asked them again, they just looked at her then walked away.
"I KNOW Y'ALL CAN FUCKING TALK," She yelled, running behind them.
"Bitch, if you don't get out my face," Kimberly said, walking up in her face. Imani, Michaela, and Ebony laughed, watching from a distance.
"WHAT'S GOING ON OVER HERE?" a police officer yelled, walking towards the yelling. But before he could make it, a fight broke out.
Sirens started going off, and everybody started running back to their cells. "Lockdown in motion," they heard over the intercom.
"Ain't this some shit," Imani huffed, while they sat watching the commotion. Her friends started laughing, causing her to laugh too.
