"you're gonna die, and im gonna die, oh my God. what the fuck— why would you send that to her?"
"she shouldn't have been texting ya phone."
"so because of that, you sent her a video we made six whole years ago. why do you even still have it?"
"i missed the view. after we broke up, i always had something to remember you by."
"you really and truly don't get it."
"don't get what?"
"that woman is bat shit crazy. you just put your life and mine in jeopardy! jamie, i can't be around you anymore."
"she's crazy, but im even crazier. im not scared of some woman."
"yeah, she's some woman, alright. some woman who wouldn't think twice about sticking a knife in yo eyeball."
"i always wanted to know how it felt to have a knife go through it."
my phone rung. i went to grab it, but he got to it first.
"what the fuck do you want bitch?" he answered.
"jamie, give me my phone." i snatched it from him, putting it to my ear, "hello..."
"you serious?"
"taraji..."
"you at his house?"
"no, im at home." i lied.
"2437 palmyra road. thats the address you at or am i tripping?"
"how did you– taraji, where are you right now?"
my heartbeat increased hearing her say his address. she would probably blow up his house while im in it. her crazy has no limits.
"dont worry about where i am. worry about where you and yo boy toy finna be."
"w-what does that mean?"
"you know what it means. don't be dense fantasia."
"taraji, don't do nothing stupid."
"why not?"
"because you don't know the truth yet."
"do i really need the truth when you just lied about being at home? i told you not to play with me so many times, and you continue to do the opposite. now it's my turn to play. say yo goodbyes."
the second she hung up the phone, his alarm system went off, but was quickly shut off somehow.
"what the fuck is going on?"
the lights flickered but they didn't turn off.
"i umm.. i think we sh..." i trailed off, noticing there was a red laser on jamies head, "JAMIE, GET DOWN!" i yelled. a bullet went flying through the window, and it missed him.
he got up, shielding me, and we ran towards the back door where there was a circle of fire sitting, so we couldn't escape.
"MY GRASS!"
"boy, you worried about grass while there's a fire surrounding us? are you insane?!"
"shit. you right, my bad. what we gon do?"
"this is your house. are there not other ways to escape?"
"this is a four story mansion. we can't jump out the window."
this is someone you can't do crimes with because you'd get caught.
"oh wait the garage. we can burst through the gate with my car and escape that way."
"jamie, i swear if this doesn't work, im gonna kill you myself."
after we got in the garage, he turned the key and drove through the garage, then he headed for the gate in which it was slowly opening, but he had no time to wait and ran through it. good thing we made it out.
my phone rang again. i froze for a minute before i answered it.
"h-"
"that car has no breaks. did you think i would allow you two to get away so easily?"
"what? hey, stop the car."
"why?"
"STOP THE CAR."
"aight just rela– its not stopping. tasia, the fucking breaks are broken."
"oh my fuck. taraji, i really hate you, i swear."
"maybe in another lifetime, you'll realize im not the one to be played with. oh, and if you wanna live, just put your seat belt on. im pretty sure your boyfriend is too dumb to wear one, so he gon just fly through the window. his body will hit a tree or something, but goodnight."
"tasia, i love you." jamie confessed before the car swirled.
the car went into the woods. we hit a huge tree. my head hit the dashboard, and everything went black afterward.
