Crystal at home watching TV. Her phone rings seeing its Risha. "Hey peach," Crystal said

"Thought you was coming back over?" Risha asked

"Ughh, I was, but I stayed for 3 days already. Ain't won't be a burden."

"Burden, my ass . You couldve of stay as long as you want. I just want you to feel safe. So are you good? Need me to come over?"

"I'm good, and you can come over if you want," Crystal said

"Alright, I'll be by in a minute. Do you need anything?" Risha asked

"No. See you in a minute, " Crystal said, hanging. She looks back at the TV when she hears some glass break in the kitchen. She jumps scared. She gets up slowly, putting on her house shoes. She walks towards the kitchen, which is pitch dark. Devon comes out the dark, pointing his gun at Crytal. "Devon," she said with her hands out. She shakes her head, and he lets off three shots. Crystal falls. Devon looks at her, then fled, not even bothering to help.

Still barely breathing. Crystal crawls pushing her body with her hand. Her phone was sitting on her end table. She couldn't get to the phone in time as she fell out.

Risha pulls up 30 minutes later getting out. She walks up, knocking on Crytal door. She stood there for a little minute than got her phone out, calling her. She hears her phone ringing inside. "Crystal, open the door," Risha said, trying to open it. Risha remembers Crytal had a spare key under her rock by the door. She lifts the rock up, seeing the key. She unlocks the door, coming in, shutting it behind her. "CRYSTAL," Risha yells just to hear the TV. She walks into the living room, staring dead at Crytal body with blood all over her.

"Crystal CRYSTAL" Risha drops everything running towards her. She pulls her hair back, still seeing if she is breathing. She was but barely. Risha gets up, slipping but catching herself. She grabs her phone, calling 911..

"911, what's your emergency?" The operator said

"My friend Been shot. PLEASE SEND HELP. HURRY PLEASE HURRY, " Risha said with tears storming down her face. She gave them the address. "Crystal baby. Stay with me. Look at me." Risha said, seeing Crystal look at her. "I'm here. I'm here. " she said, kissing her forehead and rubbing her face.

They rushed Crytal to the hospital with Risha by her side. At the hospital, they rushed Crystal to the back, holding Risha back. Risha was in shock, not knowing what happened. She called the only person she knew. Jamie.

Jamie showed up 30 minutes later rushing in with some of the girls at the club

Jamie showed up 30 minutes later rushing in with some of the girls at the club. Jamie hugged her tight and never let go.

"If only I was there a couple minutes earlier, Ma," Risha said, looking at her.

"It's okay, baby. It's okay, " Jamie said."I know she's gone, be okay. " she said

4 hours later.

The doctor came out walking up to Crystal mom.

"Is she okay?" Her mother asked.

"We manage to get all three bullets out. She will make it." He said

"OH, thank god," Her mother said, hugging her boyfriend.

"She getting placed in a room. I'll let you come back to see her. She is still still sleeping. So it may take some hours for her to wake up, " He said, walking away. Risha walks up to Crytal mom. "Thank you for being there in time to save my daughter. I couldn't thank you enough. "

"You don't have to thank me. I'm was happy she called me my instant, which led me to her, " Risha said. 

"GO home and clean yourself up, okay? I'll give you the room number soon as they give it to me. " her mother said

"Okay," Risha said, walking out with Jamie and the rest of the girls.
