SATURDAY JULY 10TH
BIRMINGHAM, AL
KE'ARI POV:

Day 22 of slowing dying. The voice in my head getting more and more tiring as time go on. It tell me kill myself so it can go away everyday.

I can't say I haven't been trying. I had been cutting up myself left and right until Jeshawn hid the knives. It didn't hurt really. It was a good feeling lowkey.

Ion even know if I wanna die frl. I just want this voice to leave me the fuck alone. I ain't been happy in a while.

Youn deserve to be happy.

Damn Key can a bitch think in peace?

Since the voice was here so much, gave it a name. It's the least I could do.

Nope, die bitch.

Don't you see I been fucking trying?

Not hard enough.

Key leave me fuck alone.

Whatever

"Malia," Jeshawn said. "Huh." "I was asking are you hungry?" "No." "That's a lie you ain't ate in days."

Well he wasn't lying. I hadn't ate in about 3 days. I didn't have an appetite. I was tired all the time. Only thing I really been doing was bathing and brushing my teeth.

Been making money too. I need some weed. Ion like smoking when Jeshawn here. He clean, ion wanna be the reason he start back. Wonder is Tyrell selling edibles.

"You gotta eat some baby." "I know," I mumbled. I say that everytime he tell me eat. I really don't be having no appetite. "Eat for me?"

I sighed. Jeshawn has a real soft spot in my heart along with Cam. Cash and Demon had one too, but it wasn't like Jeshawn and Cam.

"I'll try." He smiled. I liked his smile. "Whatchu want? I'll order whatever." "I want some shrimp fried rice." "Aight bet."

I called Tyrell. "Wassup," he said once answering. "You got any edis?" "I got some brownies, chips, and some gummies." "Bring the brownies, how many you got." "Got 12, how may you need?"

All 12 junkie.

"Just 10." "Aight you at home?" "Yea." "On the way." I hung up the phone and Jeshawn looked at me.

"Dont eat all 10 today." "I won't."

I said all 12.
