Why was Shawn texting me? We never talk anymore, so why did we need to talk now? Did he know about Jamal? Even if he did, why did he care, we don't date anymore. I texted back five minutes later because I was curious about why we needed to talk.

From: Blessing
To: Jamal
Subject: what do u want I'm busy

I don't know why I was being rude. I guess because I was already running late to meet Jamal. I think I was about five or ten minutes from where me and Jamal were supposed to be meeting at.

From: Shawn
To: Blessing
Subject: I just really need to talk you

From: Shawn
To: Blessing
Subject: I'm calling you

My phone started to ring as I pulled up at the restaurant and parked the car, and pressed decline to Shawn's call.

From: Blessing
To: Jamal
Subject: hey sorry I'm late but I'm here now

From: Jamal
To: Blessing
Subject: aye its alright I'm gonna be a little late too. I'll be there in a while

From: Blessing
To: Jamal
Subject: OK see u wen u get here

I really didn't care if he was running late, I just wonder what was taking him so long. I mean, he lives closer than I do anyway.
I'm getting really fed up with Shawn calling me over and over again.

Ring!
Ring!
Ring!
Ring!
Ring!

I was tired of him calling so I picked up the phone and all I hear is panting and someone yelling at him. The words sounded muffled so I couldn't make out anything they were saying. "Hello? Shawn you there?" I asked with a wave of concern hit me. Yeah we haven't talked in a couple of months, but I still cared. "Aye Yea uhh....where are you right now?" He said trying to regain his breath. Why was he breathing so hard? Why was he running anyway? "I'm at that new restaurant in Tallahassee. Why?" I said still listening to Shawn out of breath. "Umm....can you come to the Family Dollar and get me please"? I started up the car and backed out the parking lot. I really need to know why was he running and why did he choose to go to Family Dollar. All of this is weird.

I pulled up at the store and Shawn jumped in immediately when he realized it was me. "OK so why were you running and why did you choose this place?" I said pulling pit the parking lot. "Do you know a dude named Jamal Wilson?"

Oh god.

"Yea. Why?" I responded dryly. "Well...he's a drug lord and he's chasing me." Shawn responded not looking directly at me. "How do you know him anyway"?

Here it goes.

"I'm supposed to be on a date with him at the new restaurant. That's why I was there." I answered driving off from the store. "Hold on....when did you start doing drugs? You buy drugs!?!" I asked with concern. So...was he doing drugs when me and him were dating? "No. I got them for my cousin. She's an addict." Ohh OK that kinda explains it. Sorta. "Couldn't she get them herself?" I asked. Oh my god. Please don't let it be Lisa. "Which girl cousin are you talking about?" Not Lisa please let it be another one of his girl cousins. Lisa is too sweet for drugs. "Do you remember Lisa?" Shawn asked now looking at me with his very pretty hazel-brown eyes that made my face feel hot. "Ohh my god. She didn't seem like an addict when we were dating." I said. "She started when we broke up. She wasn't always an addict. Her boyfriend killed himself because of personal problems." Shawn said then looked away from me. Does he mean that cute little boy ,Travis, Lisa was dating? He was so sweet and seemed fine. "He seemed fine. Why didn't he talk to anyone?" I asked feeling my eyes water up a little. Travis was my little buddy. "He just....I don't know I think it was something about having pride or something." Shawn said rubbing his hands. "I should talk to Lisa." I said honestly. "No!" Shawn said quickly turning his head to face me."Why can't I talk to her? " I asked very concerned and now very worried. "You can't talk to her. She won't even talk to her sisters neither. No one can talk to her. " he continued, "When I tried to talk to her while she was in the kitchen getting some water, she grabbed a kitchen knife and threatened to slice my throat if I ever tried to talk to her again." After that we sat in silence for awhile.

"Where is your car?" I broke the silence that had been going on for atleast 20 minutes. "At the shop." He told me looking out the window. I parked at Walmart and got out of my rose red Lamborghini. These cars are like really nice. I don't know what year the car is, I just got it because its so cute. "What are we doing here?" Shawn asked. "I gotta buy some groceries for my roommates." I said smiling. "You gonna get out the car or what?" Shawn shot his head at me and nodded. He got out and we walked inside to see Jamal and I assume his sister.

From: Blessing

Jamal turned around then finally saw me and Shawn. I put my phone up and saw Jamal walking over to me. "What's up? Who's your friend?"
