Late into the night

Mar and I were asleep in our bed, when there was loud knocking at the front door. we slowly came out of our dream mode.

I jumped up outta my sleep as i heard the knocking loud and clear. Mar woke up as she felt me jump up. she heard the loud knocking

"the hell?" she groan, i rubbed my eyes and turned, looked at the clock saw it was two in the fucking morning.

i got out the bed, reach between the mattress and grabbed my .45. Mar got out the bed, grabbed her bat. we walked out of our bedroom. Benji opened his door, poked his head out saw me holding my gun

"what's going on?" he ask, as he rubbed his eyes.

"go check on Prince, and stay with him." Mar said.

he went to his room, as we made our way to the front door. got there

"who is it?" i loudly said

"Samantha." a woman ans

Mar and i looked at each other with a look. it was our neighbor who lives four houses down from us. i turned the porch light, i put my gun behind my back in my bball shorts. unlocked and opened the door. Our eyes widen as we saw Samantha was all beaten up.

she looked at us, with tears coming down her face.

"I'm sorry, i had no where else to go." she cried softly.

"shh, come in its too cold to be out here this late." Mar said as she held her arm pulling her inside.

i looked around outside and closed and locked the door. walked to the living room. Mar had Samantha sit down on the couch. i sat on the coffee table in front of them.

i stared at her face, her eye was real bruised up and puffy. busted lip and everything.

"we should get you to the hospital." i said

she began to freak out a bit, we calmed her down. gotten her to take deep breaths. Benji came stood in the hallway

"is she okay?" he asked. we looked at him

"it's okay, baby go back to sleep." Mar said

"I'm not sleepy...i can help." Benji said i looked at Samantha and than Benji

"get my kit, and the knife...be careful with it." i said, he nod his head and went to go do what i said.

i looked at Mar, she nod her head got up and went to get a towel. Benji came with my kit and the knife, he gave it to me. i took it, told him to get the needle and thread ready for me. as i sterilize the knife.

Mar came and sat down, had spread the towel on her lap and had Samantha lay her head down on it.

"what you gonna do?" she ask

"gotta release the pressure off yo eye, before you go blind in it." i ans

i got on my knee in front of her, Mar had her hold her hand. i looked at Samantha

"i need you to be real still okay, it's gonna hurt but not for long." i said, she nod her head.

i placed the tip to the side of her eye, put pressure and cut down.

"ahhh." Samantha loudly groan.
Mar sooth her letting her know it's okay.

i place my knife on the table, grabbed the towel and pressed on the bruise. watery blood and white ooze came spilling out. i wiped it off with the towel.
the swollen went down her eye wasn't puffy anymore.
