" His eyes were full of love , they were like a euphoric warmth that helped me sleep at night."

Slowly pulling into the parking lot of mave's apartment, Louie could tell by the dim lights that someone was awake.
After they parked , roscoe searched for his cigarette pack throughout his car , firstly looking in the glove box .
"Did I leave my cigarettes out there ?" He asked

"Mm-mhm" Louie responded with a quick shrug of his shoulders watching his brother search the car.

"Fuck" Roscoe whispered as he rechecked the glove box.

"Mave probably has some you'll be aight till the morning" Louie said as he grabbed his phone and charger and began leaving  out of the car.

"It is the morning" Roscoe sighed as he opened his door also and stepped out

They made their way to the front door then rung the doorbell,
After a minute or so Mave came down in her pretty black satin PJs with her matching bonnet.

"Hi" said Louie , Mave responded with a simple hello before moving swiftly to the side to let the guys in.

They walked up the quick stairs and made a right into the second apartment on the first floor.

"You gotta cigarette?" Roscoe gravelly voice travelled across the dim room
"Yea" she spoke .. as she made her way to grab one from the freezer

Louie sat down and began to get comfortable , plugging in his charger cable and placing his phone on it.

Whilst both boys took their shirts off
They could hear the clicking sound of the stove being turned on and then soon off .

She brought them both lit cigarettes, before going back into the kitchen

"Thirsty?" She called out to them

"Yea" called back Louie as he witnessed his brother get up from his seat and make his way to the back room ~ the only bedroom.

Roscoe slowly pushed open the almost closed door and peeked through the dark room.

He couldn't tell whether that was the big long puffy pillow that Mave has or whether that was the pretty brown skin little that Mave also happens to have.

So he turned on the lights.

He walked over to the puffy part that looked like a body under the covers.

But when he pulled back the covers , he soon realized it was #1 out of 2 cases.

He quickly walked back towards the front , slowly stopping in the kitchen
"Where's Bonnie?" He fretted .

"She's uh- she's- Mave quickly searched for an answer knowing that the one she had was gonna make him angry ; she thought she had till the morning-morning to have an good answer but it's only 2 in the morning and yet she still didn't.

"Mave answer" Louie chimed in, as his head tilted towards the left to see past his brothers shoulder. He also wanted to know

where was Bonnie ?

"I uh / she left." Mave stated blankly.

But she knew that it wasn't going to stop there it was gonna be a where why when what with who and how ?

But in what order did she wonder ? , in which order will she have answers not yet prepared ?

She has no time to think this is now and not later.

"When?" He asked.

The first one , easy answer. She knows when.
Right?

Shit she forgot when.

What time is it? It's 2am. She left about 4 hours ago.

"Around 10 something" she quickly gulped within her answer.

"Why?" He asked

"I- I don't kn-" she began but was briskly interrupted by him.

"What the fuck you mean you don't Mavery?"

"She said she had to do something so I let her-" she tried to explain but it was no use his questions just kept coming ?

This felt like an interrogation.

"You let her ? Let her do what with who?!!" He questioned.

"With NOBODY! She went by herself!!" She argued. Still no luck , his hard knock presence towered over her.

"BY HERSELF WHERE MAVERY??" Roscoe voice echoed throughout the small apartment.

"I don't fucking know ! She didn't tell me she just said it was very important , and 'it' had to be done / by herself." She clapped back in a calmer tone.
"How Mave how could she do something by herself after you just told us she's been going in and out of a space she doesn't even know how to control or know what it is !" He quavered.

"I don't know" she uttered in disappointment.

"Fuck!" He paced in back in forth side to side in a circle.

"4 hours ago .. she's long gone brother" said Louie

A breathy sigh came from Roscoe's lips.

She'll call right? He thought.
