Finding Love In A Hopeless Place

Black Lives Matter

Agenta POV

My alarm went off letting me know it was time for me to get up and ready for work. I am more then happy that today is my last day of work, yesterday was crazy and malaysia ass was late to pick me up so i was at the office extra late. I wasn't really mad cause i was able to get a lot of work done but still she shouldn't have been late.

Once i was done my bathroom routine and lotioned up i went to wake laysia up.

"Hey babes get up"

"Mhm noo"

"How am i going to get to work if you don't get up?"

"Just take one of my cars please i'm tired"

"Okay sleep tight i'm about to leave soon"

"Okay text me to let me know you made it to work safe"

"Mhm". i got up and started getting dressed. Today was casual friday at the job so i wore some jeans, a white button up and black blazer. I slide on some black louboutins. I grabbed my bag and walked to the case in the kitchen where she kept her car keys. I decided not to be too flashy and grabbed her keys to her black escalade. I walked to her garage and hopped in the truck. Once i got situated i pulled off to go to dunkin donuts for my coffee and a bagel. The whole way to the office the only thing that was on all the stations was talk about the cop who got killed last night. I knew that was going to be a whole mess especially since they didn't find the person who did it.

"Good morning Mrs.Harrison, how are you?" one of the associates here asked. "Good morning i'm fine and yourself?" "great" i nodded and continued walking to my office. I honestly didn't like a lot of people here so i stayed to myself unless it was rick, robin or mina. I was cool with a few other people but they were simply my workers and nothing more.

"Love i'm sorry i'm late i called the office but no one answered. Derrick was late to get the kids this morning" mina rushed out as she walked into my office. She was only 20 minutes late so it wasn't a big deal.

"Dont worry about it" she smiled and walked out. A few minutes later there was a knock on my door. "Come in" in walked mina.
"Hey love, you have a couple out there that want to talk to you about some legal issues. They don't want anyone at intake to take them they said they only way to talk to you"

"When is my first appointment?" she looked at her tablet for a moment.

"Well Mr.jefferson cancelled so you don't have a meeting until after lunch and thats with devonta freeman" i nodded.

"Okay bring them in please" she nodded and walked out. Moments later they came in.

"Good morning ms. harrison thank you for seeing us i'm niya love and this is melvin love" i nodded

"No problem, now how can i help you? This isn't protocol so i need you to get straight to the point as to why you only wanted to talk to me and also why you didn't let intake talk to you" the lady sat down and then the man followed.
"Okay my son was killed by a cop two months ago, it was a pretty big deal on the news and everywhere else. He was innocent just coming from school. The cop planted a gun on him and trashed his body camera and since there was no evidence that my son was innocent the cop was put on paid leave until this past monday where they said the kill was justified and a clean kill-" the women who was talking started breaking down crying. The man i'm assuming to be her husband was already in tears and shaking. "Okay, so you'll want to bring charges against the city? Police department ? or what?" she shook her head no.

"I killed the police officer last night" she looked into my eyes and i could see all the pain and hurt.

I dialed mina desk number and when she answered told her to bring me the intake forms that had to be filled out.

"Ms.harrison money isn't a problem whatever you asking for i will make sure you get it" her husband spoke for the first time. I shook my head and waved him off.

"Did you know anything about this?" he shook his head no. i nodded as mina knocked and came in. she passed me the papers and turned to leave. "Bring your laptop and come in here. I need a witness to this statement and i'm going to need your assistance with a few things." she nodded grabbed her laptop and came back.

"Mrs.love i'm going to need you to fill out these papers first once they are all done and signed we have attorney and client privileges. I cant speak on anything you told me or will tell me. You will also fill out these two papers, one is so that my assistant cant speak on anything that is said here and the other is that your husband can't testify or speak on anything also" she nodded and started reading and filling out papers.

"Okay my assistant is going to go make three copies of each paper and then when she come back you will tell me the whole story of what happened and then we will go to the jailhouse and turn yourself in. i will have a lawyer from here sit with you in the cell or where ever they want to hold you because they will try to terrorize you if not. I will schedule an arraignment for 2:30 pm this evening. I have to go high up to get that so it may be somewhere around that time. They most likely won't give you bail but i will get you sent to a private mental health center so that you be safe. Then we will go from there" she nodded and tears ran down her face. Mina left to do what i asked and when she came back we started.

 "Everything will be recorded but for my use only and mina will be typing everything for the records" she nodded.

"So from the began to end i need to know what happened" she nodded and closed her eyes.

"Monday when it was all said and done when they said the shooting was justified i was heartbroken, mad, sad everything but being a christian women i wanted to forgive him i wanted to let it go. I thought to myself maybe god was just ready for my baby ya know-" i nodded for her to continue. "I called and talked to the lawyer we had and asked him to set up a meeting so i could meet the cop who did it. Like i said i was ready to forgive and put it in gods hands-" she took a deep breath. "Wednesday i got a call from the lawyer, he told me the captain said we could come down to the station and hold this small meeting but there couldn't be any lawyers or anything involved-"

"Its okay baby keep going" she nodded

"-when we got there we were treated like straight animals, they didn't let us sit down they had a bunch of smart remarks and just made fun of the situation you know-" i nodded

"-so the officer who did it, officer arnold casner finally came in the room almost an hour late. He looked at us and smiled. His exact words were, "you'll look pissed, that negro thug of yours deserved to get killed one less nigga for us to take down"-" she broke down crying. After her crying got under control she started again "i was so hurt ms. harrison, i couldn't believe what he had said to me. I couldn't believe it. I walked out there a different person. I knew i never would be the same. But not once in my mind or in my heart did i feel like i wanted that man killed i wanted him to suffer by the system. I told my lawyer what happened that evening and he said there was basically nothing he could do. Thursday evening the officer's interview on what happened came on, he lied on my son's name so much i just couldn't take it. I grabbed my shotgun from my closet and went to the news station he was at. When he came out the building he was alone on his phone smiling and happy. I hopped out the car and walked up to him. He looked me in my eyes and smiled and at that very moment i pulled the trigger shooting him twice and killing him. I hopped back into my car and went home. This morning i told melvin here what happened and he said we should come to you" i nodded.

"Well let's get down to the jail house and get this shit show started".
