Her Bad Girl

HBG 13

~Karina

After the kiss with Dawn, I wasn't sure what to do or say. It was what I wanted, but her pushing away and running out like that really had me confused and kind of butt hurt. Maybe its because of this fiancee of hers. Either way the whole thing left me uncomfortable. That was 3 days ago and I would be starting my new job tomorow. This coupled with the text I got from Nika telling me to lay low and not be out in the streets really has me scared.

I don't need Raul coming after me. I'm just beginning to get my life together as best as I can and the last thing I need is for that crazy ads nigga to be trying to kill me.

I shook my head as I sat on the couch. My mother was passed out on the recliner on the other side of the room. She was drunk yet again.

As long as I can remember she had been a party girl and prostitute. When she became considered "too old" to sell pussy anymore, she found my father, a rich white man whom I have yet to meet, and started getting money off him. She became an alcoholic and she varely left the house. She spent a lot of the money on liquor, so there was barely any left to make ends meet. Thats why I was in the streets like I was and thats why I did so much illegal shit. I was trying to get money because there was never any at home.

There was a knock at the door. It was the signature knock so I knew it was Nika. I opened it and pulled her inside quickly.

"What you doing here?" I asked.

"I came by to tell you I'm going to find Raul and if you never see me again, just know I love you like a blood sister." Tears fell down her face as she talked.

Teats built up in my own eyes. I knew there was always a possibility of us dying in the streets, but the though of her dying at this moment really became real for me. I had known her for so long and if something was to happen to her, I would never be the same.

"Don't talk like that. No no no." I shook my head as I cried.

"You'll all be better off. I started this and if I don't kill him or him kill me he's gonna come after y'all. I can't have that. I fight for my gang. I won't let y'all lose." She said sternly as tears continued to fall.

"Well at least stay a little while." I said shifting my weight side to side as not only panic, but pure agony filled me at the thought of her dying.

"I can't I gotta go. But just in case they try to run up on you," she reached in her large bag taking out a gun and handing it to me. "You can't go to jail if it was self defense or if its your moms hand prints. Be careful, stay safe. I love you sis." She jugged me tightly. I broke down.

"No please don't leave me. You're the only one I have left." I gasped starting to hyperventilate.

"Calm down. You're gonna make this harder for me than it has to be." She spoke still crying. "Dammit." She turned toward the wall leaning against it as she cried some more.

She turned around. "Look at me." She grabbed my face. "You gon be alright. You gon make it through this. You the strongest in the group. Who else you know would have took that time for me?" She said looking at me sternly. I couldn't even say anything, I was too upset. "Now, I gotta go, but if I make it through this, I'm going to come bavk for you. Fuck this parole shit. We going straight to Dubai and we gon live the fucking life bitch." She gave me one last hug before leaving the apartment.

I just stood there as memories of her and I's friendship raked across my mind. The thought of never seeing her alive again and having to attend her funeral really hurt me deep down. I went to my room and sat on my bed breaking down yet again.

If Raul kills her and lives, I swear to go I will kill him and everybody in his fucking empire.

Im going to put a pic up of Karina soon. I'm waiting for the right time. 💁
