Roc looked at her in shock at first, but then gave her a grin. He knew exactly what she wanted to do, and he was down for it (unfortunately).
Zonnique and Babydoll decided to go to Bahja's grave the next day. Of course they really wanted to move pass her tragic death, but it wouldn't have been right if Zonnique hadn't seen her one last time.
"There it is. You want me to come with you, Nique?"
"This is... this is the cemetary she was buried in?" Zonnique asked, almost breaking down.
"Mhmm, sweety." Babydoll nodded.
Zonnique sighed, trying to overcome her fears of going to her once best friend's resting place. As she stepped out of Babydoll's SUV, she shook her head then quickly jumped back in, bursting into tears. "That was my best friend, Bre! Through any and everything!" she cried as she pointed towards the cemetary.
"I know, Nique. I know."
"I've watched that little girl grow up! She was like my other little sister... I tried my best to keep her from being hurt! Physically and emotionally. And now she's resting in a casket." Zonnique knew she wouldn't be able to ever visit Bahja's grave.
Instead, Babydoll drove her out to Wal Mart to shop around for food ingredients. In times of need like this, she'd cook for her to make her feel better.
As they approached the male cashier, Zonnique lowered her face as always. Sadly, she was still as insecure about her looks like she had been when her hair was in a pixie cut.
"You want some skittles, Nique?" Babydoll asked. Zonnique sighed then nodded her head "yes". She watched as Babydoll tossed the bag of skittles onto the machine, and forgot to hold her face down.
When the male cashier took a look at her, he jumped back, gasping afterwards. "What's wrong with you?" Babydoll asked, slowing up on putting the groceries on the machine.
"It's...nothing." he said as he tried getting Zonnique's wolf-like face out of his mind. With that, Zonnique took a deep breath then snook some cigarettes into her pockets. That way, she could deal with her problem "efficiently" like all of the other people who went through depression.
Two hours later, Babydoll was downstairs making the whole family a pasta dinner in their huge kitchen. The whole family all loved it when she was over, so Zonnique being upstairs didn't upset them as much as it usually would.
Zonnique stepped into her bathroom and locked the door. She slowly took her cigarettes out, and within no time, she lit them up then inhaled it.
Immediately, she started coughing and gagging, falling on the floor eventually. When she finally caught her breath, she stared at the cigarette and wondered if it was worth it.
YES.
She slowly propped the cigarette in between her fingers again and slowly brought it to her lips, shaking. This time, she coughed a little bit, but she had it down pact.
Suddenly she heard footsteps coming from outside of her door. "Nique, it's Bre. I'm done with the food, girl."
"Okay, I'll be down in a little!" she yelled as she blew the smoke away with her hands.
When she saw that wasn't working, she turned the vent on and sprayed as much air freshner in the bathroom as she could. Unfortunately, she caught a horrible headache.
Two minutes later, she was downstairs in different pajamas. She ate and laughed with her family & Bre, then kissed them all goodnight. When her and Breaunna both went back upstairs, Zonnique ran right back into the bathroom. "Nique, you have to use the restroom again? Did my cooking blow you up or something?"
