I guess today is good and bad. Good because Ayo gets his first trail today, and bad because I just got fired from my job. Like wth? I was suspended like a month ago. They said some guy with an afro came in and said all this fuckshit about me saying I was unstable and stuff.
Like wtf Teo just made me loose my job.
He's trying to take care of you.
"No he's not shut up." I say to myself.
But every night, it's just been me crying and having headaches and cutting myself. Sometimes I feel like dying but other times I'm really happy. And I can't control it. I feel like running away sometimes. Maybe when Ayo come home he'll fix me.
I hope he can come home today.

I sit in the audience, waiting for Ayo to come out. On the other side I see Teo, smirking at me.
Bitch.
No one knew who reported him to the police but now I feel like it was Teo that did it. It probably was, I don't get it. He's trying to mess up his own brother's life. But he don't know that they blood.
But they act like it, they've known each other since childhood. And he just do Ayo like that?
The judge and the guard come in and we all stand. We do some hand motion shit and whatever and the case begins.
Ayo walks in and he's wearing an orange suit and is chained up. It hurts to see him like this. We locked eyes and he lowers his head in shame and sits next to his lawyer. His lawyer better be good. Payed some good money for him.
"Ayleo Bowles vs. the people." The guard says and hands the the judge the folder.
"Could Ayleo come to the stage please? " The opposing lawyer said.
He started bombarding him with questions and right now he's making him seem guilty but I know he's not. Eventually my name gets said and I have to come up for testimony.
"Ayleo is your husband right?" Ayo's lawyer said. He turns to the jury.
"Yes."
"So if he's your husband, he has your consent to love you in any way he wants right?"
"Yes, Ayo would never hurt me." I say looking straight at him. He stares back at me with a straight face. His dreads really need to be twisted again.
"I have no more questions your honor." He goes back and sits next to Ayo.
"I would like to question her your honor." The opposing lawyer said.
Oh shit. I feel anxiety again.
Shut up, I'm letting you have some freedom today. You're doing fine.
I take a deep breath.
"Ayleo was drunk that night yes?" He said.
"Yes."
"Could you tell me why?"
"Umm we got into an argument and he told me to sleep on the couch." I say and Ayo shakes his head in shame.
I feel like crying, and hurting myself again.
No. Go through this.
"Have you guys fought before?" He asks.
"Yes, a couple times. But he's not abusive. And what couples don't have disagreements?" I said calmly.
He asked me a few more questions and I went back to the audience. I just hope I did enough to prove his innocence. After a few more arguments, we waited for the jury to make a decision. This either makes or breaks Ayo.
Teo went back home but I waited hours. They wouldn't let me talk to Ayo as I waited. I been here since 10 in the morning and it's now 6pm.
I almost fell asleep but the foreman of the jury walked out. I see him and immediately stand up. Ayo looks up too.
Everyone is anxious for the answer.
"We believe the verdict is not guilty. And we believe that the whole thing was a false accusation. The report wasn't even true." The foreman says.
The case ends and the judge says a few more words and he hits his gavel on the block.
I take a breath in relief as I smile to myself. I can finally get my husband back.
But wtf? He spent 6 months in jail and the whole thing was a false accusation. But what can I do about it? I can't even prove that Teo was the one that did it. And you can spend hella time for false accusation.
I don't think I can help either.
"I know." I say to myself.
My mind is bipolar. Like sometimes it wants to bring me hell and other times it's calm and we just have regular conversations.
I meet Ayo at the jail and he comes out with his regular clothes. I run to him and he opens his arms up for me.
It feels good to be with him again. I cry and laugh at the same time.
"Baby ima make you feel good tonight." He says and smirks at me. I kiss him and smirk back.
"Ooouu ya nasty. But I missed you so much daddy Ayo."
"MMmh you gon be screaming that tonight." He lips his lips and I slap him playfully.
It feels good to have him back.
