The Grass Man (Donald Glover Story)

Chapter 45

Chapter 45

I woke up to the home phone ringing. I sat up and looked over at Chance who was knocked out on the floor. I rushed out of the bed to grab the phone.

"Hello?"

There was a silence.

"We are so sorry. We tried everything we can. The medicine was too strong and caused heart failure-."

I dropped the phone and fell to my knees. I cuffed my face letting out a long deep cry. I began to pound my fist into the floor.

"Why?" I cried between every punch.

The front door was kicked in and a badge was shown.

"LAPD! Your under arrest for murder of Joseph Smith."

I was pressed against the floor as guns were pointed at my temple.

"I'm sorry!"

~Chance's View

I woke up to hear screaming and cry by the sound of Donald.

I rubbed my face sitting up and touched the bed looking up.

He wasn't there.

"Donald!" I yelled getting up.

I ran outside the room to where he laid on the floor crying with his hands behind his back.

"This nigga." I mumbled.

"Chance help!"

Donald stood up with his hands behind his back walking out the door.

I quickly grabbed him closing the door.

"Donald." I said waving my hand in his face.

He store at me without a blink.

SMACK!

I flung my hand across his face making him snap back.

"Wake up nigga!" I yelled.

I slapped him again.

"Stop."

I swung my hand again and he caught my wrist.

"I said stop!" Donald yelled.

"What's wrong with you?"

He shook his head.

"Come with me I need to talk to you." I sighed.

I walked him outside and we got in my car.

"What?" Donald said pressing his head into his hands.

"I lied. I just wanted you in my car." I said making a creep face.

"I need a drink, something."

"You don't need to drink when your like this."

"Chance...you don't fucking understand! Im fucking loosing it!"

He grabbed my collar pulling me towards him as he jacked me up.

"Get the fuck out my face like you bout to kiss me. Miss me with that gay shit and that army strong ass breath nigga. Smelling like you sucked the stains out debo straw."

He let go of me and started to laugh. Then his laughing calmed down.

"All I wanted was a perfect life for her you know." He said looking down.

"You did. You gave her a home and someone to care of her. You gave her all you could give her." I said patting his back.

"I don't deserve her."

"Yes you do."

"I dont!" He slammed his fist on the dashboard. "I don't Chance..."

I watched as his fist began to shake and his tears fall.

"Don't you see I'm a monster? Don't you?" He laughed.

"No one sees you as a monster. Maybe a pussy ass nigga when I'm whooping yo ass in Madden but not a monster."

"I just need time alone. Go home."

He got out of my car as I watched him stroll back into his house closing the door.

"Aye man my keys inside!"

~Donald's View

I closed the door after returning his keys to him.

I made why way to the kitchen finding me a bottle of Goose. I popped it open and began to chug it down.

"Fuck Donald!" I yelled gripping the bottle harder.

I made my way upstairs and grabbed a box from in my closet. I sat down on my balcony staring at the view of the ocean. Putting the bottle down I sat the box on my lap and opened it pulling out video camera.

"Donald! What is that?" Julie pointed at the camera.

"Memories."

"Am I a memory?" She asked.

"Everything you do is a memory that will never leave me."

"Okay. I dance for you and camera now."

I watched as she broke out into a little cute dance. The clip ended after it and I played a few more. A few more turned into all of them. The clip cut to Ana lying on the bed in lingerie.

"Happy Anniversary baby. You know I will always love you no matter what."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah daddy. Lemme show you."

I turned the camera off and placed it to the side. Seeing Ana sent anger through my veins. I wouldn't...Julie wouldn't be in this position if not for her.

I removed the cloth that was under the camera in the box. I felt around in the box then lifted up a small pistol.

"Someone gave you all my love baby.. All my love. All my love." 

I sang putting it to my head slowly.

"All my love, all my love..." I sang.

"Im sorry Julie." I said after cocking the gun.

I pulled the trigger.
