My Brother's BestFriend

CHAPTER 22

She sat there thinking for a minute. She remembered the nickname R-T from her childhood. She just couldn't remember who was the one to call her that.

"Do you still want to press charges Ms. White?"Detective Robinson asked.

Royalty was still sitting there thinking of that nickname. She was lost in her own mind.

"Ms. White?" Robinson called out tapping her on the shoulder.

She finally snapped out of her thoughts.

"Oh oh I'm sorry. What did you say?"she asked nervously.

"I asked did you still want to press charges ma'am?"he repeated.

"Ca-Can I think this over detective?"she asked.

"Sure. Just call me when you are ready",Detective Robinson stated.

"Thank you so much",she said getting up to leave out of the building.

She was thinking of that the whole ride home. Her memory was so bad. She had a terrible childhood. She tried her best not to think of nothing from that horrible place. Especially not the nicknames she was given.

It was a quiet ride home for her. She didn't even bother to touch her AUX cord or phone. She knew Briana called her several times but she couldn't talk at this moment. When she finally got to the hospital, she dragged her self to the front door, to the elevator, and to room 342.

Kobe knew something was wrong with her the moment she walked through the door. She came in and went straight to the couch bed. He had raised his bed up so he could eat and watch tv. When she sat down, he turned the the TV off. She knew he was watching her so she looked up.

"What?"Royalty asked.

"I'm saying though like wassup with you?",he asked.

She rolled her eyes and told him what happened from this morning to when she got to the building.

"So you believe the nigga that did a hit and run on me is somewhat related to you?"he asked.

"He could be or he could be a family friend I don't know ",she stated.

"Damn that's crazy man",he responded.

"I know right. I wanted to see who it was but I didn't think I could. They are going to keep him until tomorrow afternoon. So I'll try again in the morning",she explained.

"Okay well they gave me some more of that medicine that makes me go to sleep. So I don't think I'm going to be up for long",Kobe stated sadly.

"It's okay baby. I'll wait until you get up. I don't feel like going anywhere else."

They talked for a while but it wasn't long until Kobe fell asleep.

Briana and King:

For the past day, Briana and King grew closer. They had the house to themselves. King put someone else in charge at his factory and Royalty gave everybody in her business a break so neither of them had work to attend.

Their nights were longer and days were shorter. They stayed up talking about everything. She even brought up how she would feel if she was in Royalty's shoes with the Jessica situation.

King was in bed watching the "Riverdale" netflix original. Briana was downstairs cooking lunch for them both. She cooked some bolgna sandwiches with lettuce, tomatoes, etc. and fries.

She brought the plates up to their room and couldnt believe what King was watching. She didn't think a hood nigga like him would watch something like that.

"Nigga you watching Riverdale?"

"What the fuck that's suppose to mean?"

"Damn chill out. I'm just saying you don't seem like the type of nigga to watch something like that"

He laughed.

"You won't be the first to say that"

"Maybe cause it's true"

"Fuck all the small talk I'm hungry. Can I please get my plate?"

"Since you said please, here"

She gave him his food and then climbed into bed and got comfortable. They both ate their food and watched Riverdale. After they got done eating, they talked some more. They had endless conversations and they came up with new topics every 5 minutes.

But the question finally came out: Are you a virgin? She didn't feel any type of way about the question. I mean he was a boy of course, it was gone come out sooner or later.

"Well when I was about 12 years old, I was raped by my cousin. He was a little older then me. Maybe 14 or 15. He use to always play with me in a sexual way and he stared at me at times. But not me as in my face,me as in my body. I wasn't a built female. I was straight up and down. I never understood why and he never told me why",she explained starting to tear up.

"Damn baby I hate to hear that shit. I swear that just made me want to kill that nigga. That's some sick ass shit man. But don't cry. You with me now you better be lucky if I let a nigga look at you"

She felt so loved. The vibrant of his voice as she was laying on his chest made her feel some type of way.
