Charisma sat on the sofa with a double Hennessey in her hand, she almost downed the whole thing as she turned over the recent events in her head. Keegan was sleeping, which she was thankful for because he needed to rest, she kept checking on him. She didn't want him to wake up. She needed him to regroup and look after himself.
Her doorbell rang, she went to open the door, thinking that it could be Venice, instead, she saw Nash standing in front of her.
She folded her arms and looked at him with her eyebrows raised. "Where the hell have you been... I needed you for business and personal shit too... And you just go MIA ?"

"I'm here now, can we talk?" he said his voice, deep and low

"I'm here now, can we talk?" he said his voice, deep and low..

"Yeah..." she let him inside she could see that he was agitated. " what is it?"

" it was me, Charisma... I was the one who killed Zara..."

Charisma just stood and stared at him, as if he was a stranger, someone she'd never met before standing in her house.

"I'm so sorry... She came over to the house and she was panicky and saying that she needed to be with me, doing that fucking thing where she lures me in, and I can't stop it..." he paused. " I never wanted to kill her that was never my intention. I just wanted her to stop...

Charisma's chin wobbled. "No.... Not you... not you..."

"I'm sorry.... You need to know the truth.." Nash said.

"She, trusted you, she felt safe and protected around you... It doesn't make sense for you to be the one to kill her, and then dump her body... Nash this can't be you...." She said and a tear dropped onto to her cheek.

Nash moved closer to her and she backed away. "Charisma... you don't understand, she reminded me of you.... every time we were together. She allowed me to call her by yo name, to pretend that she was you... I was trying to move on with my life, and needed that fresh start because I know that I'm never gonna have you... But the truth is when she came around that day, I looked at her and all I could think about was you and the fact that I'm never gonna have you again... The more she came towards me and I could feel my mind tripping and the pull towards her, I just needed it to stop it... I needed to stop thinking about you...

"YOU THREW HER AWAY LIKE A FUCKING RAG!.." she screamed at him and she shoved him hard in his chest.

"You need to know that I can't get over you.... I've tried so many times... I don't even wanna be with the mother of my newborn son because it's a lie, it's all a fucking lie... you are the only person I wanna be with. The only person I think about is you constantly in my FUCKING HEAD!..." he said and gritted his teeth. 

".... I think you need to leave Unc...

Nash and Charisma both turned to see Keegan standing at the bottom of the stairs.

"... I have to get back or my sister is gonna trip out..."

Devin rolled a blunt. "I should get back to LA really soon I've got shit to do with my own business....
