It was now Monday and around 9am. Something had happened to Lola yesterday and now she was in bed with me, still asleep.

(Flashback: Yesterday evening )

It was almost midnight and I was just driving around Los Angeles since I was bored and shit. As I was driving around, I saw Ka'Lani walking by herself.

I noticed it was her because of the tattoo she has on the back of her right calf. So, I stopped right next to her and she instantly pulled out her guy, pointing it at me.

"Woaaa it's me. Ian tryna kidnap you." I said. I noticed how her eyes were red and puffy, like she's been crying.

"Lola U good?" I got outta the car.

She didn't say anything. She just put her gun back inside her hoodie pocket and stepped back. She seemed dizzy and almost fell back I caught her just in time.

"C'mon girl" I helped get inside the passenger seat and closed the door for her. I walked to the driver's seat and got in.

I saw how she winced in pain every time she made a movement.

"Lola"

"Huh huh? Oh sorry I just uhm...spaced out." She quickly snapped outta her gaze.

"You good, you seem hurt?" I asked and I drove off.

"I'm fine, just hurt myself a bit, that's all." She said. I could could tell something happened to her. I wasn't gon pressure rise her doe.

"Why you all by yoself? It's almost midnight. Shouldn't you be at yo aunt's place or sum shit?" I looked at her.

"I don't wanna be there." She put her hood of her hoodie over her head and looked outta the window. I could tell she didn't wanna speak so I wasn't gon force her.

"Can you just drop me off at Oni-"

"Nah you staying the night at my crib." I said as I focused on the road.

"B-but-" I cut her off.

"You staying over at my place." I said one last time before the car went silent.

We soon arrived at my house and I parked it in the garage. We both got out and headed to my door. I opened it for her and saw my Pitbull and Rottweiler standing by the door.

"Do they bite?" Lani asked.

"Yes and no." I said as we both got inside the house. My dogs started growling but Lani looked unfazed.

She walked to them and they started barking. She bent down and patted their heads. They stopped barking and sniffed her. My Rottweiler jumped on her and started licking her face.

"Oh my gosh!" She laughed.

"Melly get off her."  I said and Melly got off her. "How you make them stop barking?"
