40. The End (Part Two)

LeeLee's P.O.V.

I was blindfolded. I knew because I felt something over my eyes.

After the lights went out, I felt someone grab me from behind. I tried to kick them, but then they picked me up bridal style, holding my legs together. Then I knocked out.

I woke up without the blindfold on my eyes. Then I saw where I was.

In a warehouse.

I was tied up in a chair, boxes surrounding me. I felt like I was in one of those movies that the mobster kidnaps a person and interrogates them for hours.

There were windows but you can barely see anything. I saw shadows, but they looked like trees. Not people.

That's when all the lights turned on one by one.

I was at the end of the warehouse I'm guessing, since there were no doors around me. I saw one all the way at the other end.

I heard a door squeak open, and then shut close.

???: Hey there Leandra.

Michael.

LeeLee: So you stoop this low huh? Kidnapping. You're an idiot.

I saw him walking towards me. He was wearing a tuxedo.

Michael: I was kinda sad you didn't invite me to Niyesha's sweet 16.

LeeLee: She doesn't like you and you know that.

Michael: But you do.

LeeLee: I already said what I had ti say. I can tolerate you. I can work with you. But anything beyond that...there's nothing between us.

He got close to me. We were face to face. His breath smelled like liquor.

LeeLee: So you became a drunk I see.

Michael: Why do you care?

LeeLee: Because my momma taught me to never hold a grudge against someone...Why are you hurting so much?

He stood quiet. He got away from me, and sat down in front of me. He was clenching his fists, looking towards the ground. He finally looked up, a tear escaping his eye.

Michael: You gave me something to live for. When we were together, I felt as if no one can ruin my mood. I made the bet with Brandon and Tre...I was stupid. I was stupid and scared. They threatened to kill me. Said they could get someone to go after my mother and father. I agreed to do it. I'm sorry for all the hurt I put you through. After the party, I couldn't sleep. Couldn't think. I stood a whole month in the house before my mother told me to get out and do something. I was stuck...I still am...I did all this to get closer to you. Yeah it was a stupid thing to do. But it's the only way. Tasha pulled me in, and Tre was gonna kill me if I backed out. I'm sorry.

Silence. I took it all in. I realized I didn't see this from his point of view. His mind is completely fucked up.

LeeLee: You didn't have to do this Michael. Coming to me was all you needed to do. You can stop all this. Just take me out.

He wiped a tear away, and got up. He untied me and hugged me. I wasn't expecting to but I hugged him back. He needed help. He needed someone to be with him. I saw he didn't have real friends. Just people who used him. I felt bad.

Niyesha's P.O.V.

I already knew what was gonna happen. No need to re-explain. The warehouse. Being tied up.
