JAZZ POV

¨Jazz talk to me. What happened to you?¨ I could hear Nana asking me billions of questions as she kept shaking me. My head was buried in my pillows, and I cried nonstop. After a while, Nana started crying. ¨Jazz, please. I'm your best friend, you--¨ Mrs. Sabrina opened the door. ¨Y'all, dinner is read---Jazz, what's wrong baby?¨¨I don't know ma. She was silent the whole ride home, and she's been crying ever since we got here.¨ Just then, Mr. James walked in. ¨Uh Jasmine........Jasmine.......Hello.¨ ¨James, can't you see something's wrong with her?¨ ¨Now look Sabrina, it's two police officers downstairs in MY living room looking for Jasmine Riley. Now Jasmine, you know I love ya to death, but you got 2.2 seconds to get downstairs and figure out whatever it is these officers want.¨ I jumped out of bed and ran downstairs. Mr. James don't play. I carefully approached the two officers standing in the kitchen enjoying their coffee. ¨Yes, officers.¨ The older officer shook my hand. The younger officer looked me up and down and licked his lips. I must look good even when I'm crying, I thought to myself. ¨Hello, Jasmine?¨ The older officer read off a slip of paper. ¨My name is Officer Brian.¨ I nodded at him and looked at he other one ho was still checking me out. ¨And you are...?¨I asked him. ¨I'm sorry I'm Officer Terry.¨ ¨Nice to meet you both. May I ask you why you're here? Most importantly, why you are looking for me?¨¨Oh yes. Miss Jasmine, do you know of a Lamar Wallace?¨ I frowned, knowing where this was going. Lamar was the biggest drug dealer in our school. ¨Y-yes I do, why?¨ ¨He was just arrested in a drug deal¨, Officer Brian read off the same paper,¨and we wanted to ask you a few questions.¨ ¨Um, can I just call you guys. Today's really not a good day. Actually, Lamar is----was my boyfriend. We just broke up today because I found him having----¨ ¨I-it's okay we get it. Take my card.¨Officer Brian pulled out a card from his shirt pocket and handed it to me. Officer Terry patted his pockets and frowned.¨Ah shi--, Officer Brian nudged him in his shoulder and smiled,¨I mean, it seems as if I have misplaced my contact information.¨Officer Terry said in a rehearsed tone. I chuckled. ¨It's fine. Here.¨ I pulled my phone out and handed it to him. He typed his number in and winked. I looked at my phone and noticed he texted himself Hey sweet thang. ¨Have a nice day Miss Jasmine.¨Officer Brian smiled and walked out of the kitchen, then stopped when he realized what Officer Terry as doing. He was putting an imaginary phone up to his ear mouthing call me. ¨Let's go rookie.¨ I chuckled. ¨Bye,I'll be in touch.¨ I waited until they left and turned around making my way to our room and frowned once I saw Mr. James standing on the staircase with my bags.
