CHAPTER ONE :
TIFFANY'S POINT OF VIEW
PRAY FOR X AND HIS FAMILY AS THEY HAVE LOST A LEGEND 🤧 01/23/98 - 06/18/18
"why can't you leave him? what's so special about him? how can you love him after all the pain he put you through. where is my strength?"
these questions fill up my mind but sadly I have no answers to them. I fill up my mug with coffee and head to the living room to see Isiah on the couch staring at the blank tv screen as if a tv show was on. He starts laughing and rocking back and forth while pointing at the screen "whoo I love this show!" he blurts out.
"Isiah what are doing?" I ask him while setting my cup of coffee on the floor next to the couch. He shakes as I sit next to him. "I'm watching tv tiff look it's my favorite show spongebob"
"Isiah you hate spongebob and there's nothing on what are you talking about I don't see anything on the tv"
He turns to me and his eyes are super red it almost looks bloody. I already knew he was high from the beginning but this looks unhealthy. "God what did you do to yourself" I can barely look into his eyes.
"What do you mean I'm fine I didn't do anything to myself I was just sitting here enjoying my favorite show spongebob and then you show up and ruin everything like always".
Our eyes lock. I stare at him for the longest time even though my mind keeps urging me to look away. "I ruin everything. Lately it's been you ruining everything. I Always come home to find you knocked out or acting like a crazy bitch. What if one day I come back home and your dead. Talking bout I ruin everything. Come on now-" before I can finish the rest of my sentence I feel his cold strong hand slap me across the face. Instead of feeling pain I'm in shock he's never done something like this before.
I stare at him blankly. Words unable to form in my mouth. My brain rocking back and forth. I don't notice the blood rushing out of my nose and dropping onto the couch. I don't notice the tears falling down my face. I don't notice the smirk on his face until the whole situation comes back to me and the shock disappears from my body.
"Finally that got you quiet". he gets up and drags himself to the bedroom. "Can't believe I'm with a bitch who acts as if she's my parent what the fuck is this. LET ME LIVE MY LIFE"
he slams the door behind him. I sit on the couch phone in hand, nose still bleeding and face wet from all the tears. I unlock my phone and go to my camera looking at myself in the screen terrified.
The mark from where he slapped me stays, imprinted on my skin and the blood staining my lips and the couch which is now covered in blood droplets. I run to the bathroom and wipe the blood and tears from my face and then splash cold water all over my face.
As I'm walking out I hear Isiah crying out in the closed off bedroom. "MOMMY HELP ME. HELP ME MOMMY. IVE BEEN A REAL BAD BOY I NEED YOUR HELP MOM PLEASE. HELP ME MOM".
I can't tell if he's on the phone with her or is just yelling out to the ceiling. I don't bother to find out I just walk past the door and out the house to get some fresh air. I can still faintly hear his screams and cries from the driveway of our house but I just block them out and sit on the steps looking out at the dark empty streets.
I pick up my phone once again and instead of going on my camera I go to my calls and click on the name that reads "JAHSEH"it rings a couple times until he picks up. "hello?" his voice sounds groggy and exhausted. "yo jah?" My voice is louder and more enthusiastic compared to his. "Yeah what's good baby girl?"
"I can't stay with Isiah he's high again but it's really bad. He hit me jah. Like real hard. I don't know what to do"
"He hit you? What the hell. You know what that nigga on?"
"No but all I know is that I can't be here with him. What if he does something worse than what he just did. And I know it's late at night and you probably don't want somebody up in your house but it will just be for tonight I promise you".
"Nah nah it's okay I don't mind it. Come on over. I don't want him being abusive towards you. Your safe here with me".
"Thanks. Alright I guess I'll be there soon then"
"Alright see you later mama"
"Bye" and then the phone disconnects.
