A Girl Like Me

Another Death

Amber's Pov.

I heard about Romney's death the next morning. It was all over the news. I felt so sorry for his family and especially Aaliyah. Her heart is really broken. I just have to be there to comfort my friend.

Malcolm's Pov.

My brother was dead and I was determined to find out who did it. Romney was shot while he was on clock. I was suppose to go with him but he said he got it. I feel so stupid. I should've been there. I kept thinking who could've did this to him. Who would want him dead? Tony. I said to myself. He's been making threats at me and Romney since the gang fight. if he killed my brother I swear I'm going to jail for murder.

Amber came to visit me later but I didn't really feel like talking.

"Just go home Amber." I said.

"No I want to be here for you baby." she said.

"GO HOME AMBER." I yelled.

She started to cry. "it's okay baby, everything will be okay." she said pulling me into her arms. We cried together.

That night I got my pistol and I went straight for Tony.

I went into Tony Trap House looking for answers.

"Where's Tony?" I said to the little boys sitting on the couch. I looked closely at the boys and I spotted Aaron, Amber's little brother.

"What you doing her Aaron. Your going to get yourself in trouble." I lectured.

He laughed. "No, you don't tell me what to do. Your not my big brother Tony is."

I wanted to slap the shit out of him.

Seconds later Tony walked in.

"You looking for me?" He said with a smirk on his face.

"Did you kill Romney?" I asked getting straight to the point.

"Mane." he laughed. "Poor Romney, You know I thought he was you."

Once he said that I straight tackled his ass. I was trying to beat the life out of him. Tony some how got his self up. I pulled out my gun.

"Make another step and I blow your brains out!" I threatened.

"Yeah right baby boy. If you do that you going to jail son." Tony laughed hysterically out of breath.

"Fuck jail, fuck you, fuck everybody. You took away the best part of me and now I'm going to take away your life." I shot but somehow I missed. Tony grabbed the gun and shot me in my arm.

"Shit." I said holding my arm.

Tony laughed. "You ready to die too?"

Then next thing i know little Aaron, who had been watching the whole fight got up and tackled Tony.

Tony managed to get Aaron and held him at gun point.

"You tryna save him huh?" Tony said to Aaron.

"Don't hurt him man." I pleaded.

Tony Laughed. "if you move Ima shot the boy and you."

I nodded. "okay."

"Now if you want to leave alive you would walk away." Tony warned.

I nodded.

I walked passed Tony Towards the exit. Just when I was about to leave I saw a beer bottle on the floor. I turned around and busted Tony in the head back of the head with a beer bottle.

I took my gun and shot Tony 5 Times.

Moments later the police came and I was arrested for murder.

Amber Pov.

"Amber ! Amber !" My little brother Aaron screamed over the phone.

"What?!" I yelled. "Where are you? Mom and Stephen are going to kill you boy." I said sarcastically.

"They arrested Malcolm!" he yelled.

"What? Where are you? I'm on my way." I yelled.

I arrived at the crime scene. People where gathered around to see.

I found my brother.

"Where's Malcolm?" I asked.

"He's in the police car. He shot Tony. It wasn't his fought he was protecting me." Aaron cried.
