Chapter 31Ashanti
Someone was banging on my front door "Who the hell is it! " "It's NJPD open up please". What the fuck is going on?
Now what the fuck was going on NJPD was at my damn door I looked at Marquez he gave me a reassuring look and I opened the door.. "Yes can I help you?" They come in without saying a word and hand me their search and arrest warrants then they begin searching my house I look down at the paper and read the arrest warrants there's an arrest warrant for Marquez, my brothers, and their friend tears began to fall Latrice wrapped her arms around me I had to hug my fiancée. "I love you Shanti everything will be okay I promise." I put my arms around him held him tight and cried.I was confused. What was happening? "Excuse me officer may I know what's going on please?" the cop gave me a dirty look and ignored me. "Ma'am my name is Detective Morgan Jones, do u know a Kennon Wallace?" "yes, he's my ex boyfriend" "Well did u know he was found beaten to death?" I was shocked... I knew they beat him up, but not so gruesomely. "No I didn't know" "Okay, ma'am do you know where Marquez was last night around 12am" "He was with me" "What were you two doing. And where were you two" "We were here... Having sex"... That caught his smug ass off guard. Detective Jones cleared his throat and looked around. "Do you know Rico Perez he was involved in the murder of Mr. Wallace.." I looked at my twin he shook his head at me to let me know it was okay to answer I looked at detective Jones. "yes he's my twin brother but how was he involved?" Detective Jones looked through his paperwork while I sat down I started to feel very sick but I didn't wanna leave my baby's side finally detective Jones answered my question. "His fingerprints were found on and in the victims car." I took a deep breathe as my mama sat beside me and looked at detective Jones the officers with detective Jones took out their handcuffs. "I'm sorry about this Ms. Perez but we have to arrest Marquez and Rico." I look and started to cry I couldn't believe this why now why when were celebrating? "But I told you Marquez was here with me we were having sex." I grabbed Marquez's hand and held it tight but the officers pulled us apart they grabbed Rico and pulled him away from Trice then handcuffed Marquez and Rico Trice and I cried. "No you can't do this please no."
I was dizzy, I had to think.What had happen up to the point before the accident and the issue at the club. I did see Kennon before that "Wait! I have something to say. I was with Kennon the other day, he had to put his car in the shop and I picked him up. After that he went back to get his car and I got in with him. Rico and I are identical twins. Its hard to believe but its true. Marquez was at his club up until the car accident and Rico was with our parents.You can't arrest them! You have no evidence against them" I closed my eyes and said a silent prayer. The cops looked stupid, but they uncuffed the boys."We will be back Ms. Perez mark my words."
The detective's words stung. I knew that Marquez was with me all that night, and I knew for a fact that Rico was with latrice. But then again, Marquez and Rico were sneaky, I loved them both but the truth was the truth. I was going to get to the bottom of this before detective Morgan did. "Okay, y'all start explaining. I could go to jail behind this" Marquez looked at me funny, I could have slapped him but he was holding my arms. "Baby don't worry about it. That bitch ass cop ain't about shit. He's dirty, we'll deal with it later on." I didn't like being out of the loop, I gave Latrice a look and she gave me a nod. All, I wanted was the truth. But, I trusted the boys, I really did. So, I was going to listen to them and not worry about. I was however, about to get some answers from Rico, and start my own investigation. The last thing I needed was for my man to be behind bar's and not be there for our family. I wanted my brother to be with me as well, I guess you can say I was being selfish but, I didn't care. Kennon was murdered , that didn't sit well with me. I guess after all this time I still had a soft spot in my heart for him, or maybe it was the fact that I had his child. Great, here I go over thinking again. I needed to relax, but I couldn't the more and more I thought about it, the more I began to wonder how it happened, where it happened, and who really did it. Kennon had a lot of people that didn't like him but, not to the point of them taking his life. I stood there in daze, thinking about this situation that just took place, I was kind of upset. There always seems to be road blocks in the way of my happiness, I can't keep letting this shit happen to me I had to get the truth.
I needed to get to the bottom of this before my head exploded so someone needs to start talking right now cause I just saved their asses so I deserve some motherfucking answers, Rico could tell by the look on my face that I was pissed and that I wanted answers he looked at Marquez and he sighed. "Look twin..." "Don't give me that look twin bullshit right now just spit it out! What the fuck happened?!" Rico sat down by me and tried to put his arm around me but I pushed him away from me and glared at him. "Shanti it had to be done we couldn't let him hurt you or Tae." I looked at Rico then at Marquez with so much confusion on my face that I thought my face would stay that way. "What are you talking about you couldn't let him hurt me or Tae what's going on?" Marquez sat on the other side of me and grabbed my hand. "Kennon said that he would hurt you and Tae if you didn't get back with him so I couldn't let that happen so I had to hurt him before he hurt you both."
