Yasmine
These past couple of weeks I have been staying at Rocky's condo. I was ninety percent sure someone is stalking me but I don't know who and that's what bothers me the most. I don't know if it's a man, a woman, or someone I may be very close to. I have a feeling it may be the guy from the meet and greet I got a bad vibe from but I'm not so sure. I talked to the police about it but until I have more evidence there's nothing much they can do. Mya found me a bodyguard last week but I haven't been out much. I was paranoid, my anxiety is at an all time high and I hate it. Today I have a person from a security system company coming out to set up cameras, alarms, and the system.

Whatchu doing mama? Rocky walked into his room sitting next to me.

"Looking through my emails..I'll probably get ready to leave in a little while." I took off my reading glasses looking at him.

How do you feel? He grabbed my hand.

"Do you want the truth or do you want me to tell you what you want to hear? You probably won't like the truth and I don't want you worrying about me."

Of course I want the truth Yasmine, and I don't care what you talkin about I'm always going to worry and care about you. So what's going on?

"I'm scared Rah and my anxiety is really bad. I can't be scared of my own home forever so I need to go home. I think I'll feel a little better after the system is installed."

Mi casa su casa baby..I don't wanna hear that shit and honestly I love you being here I wish you lived with me. Why don't you move in?

"I would love that but I put too much money in that condo and I think everything in my closet won't fit here."

We can keep our condos and go in on a house together?

"Are you joking or are you dead ass?"

I'm serious yo. He laughed.

"I'll think about it but I still love you the same." I wrapped my arms around his neck kissing his cheek.

I love you too Yas, more than I love anything else. I gotta get out of here though so call me when you get home. He kissed me on the lips a few times and got up straightening out his clothes.

"Call me when you get to the studio."

I gotchu and this time I promise I won't forget. He leaned down and pecked my lips once more.

"Don't make a promise you won't keep Rakim." I packed up my stuff and put on my slides.

I promise. He winked. Now give me your stuff.

He grabbed my bags and we walked outside to the cars. I unlocked mine and he opened the passenger door to my car.

I love you and drive safe.

"I love you too and you drive safe too and don't be having that music too loud." I pulled out my phone texting Briana to meet me at my place.

I gotchu love. He winked and jogged to his car.

I backed out the driveway and made my way down the street when I got a call from Rocky.

"Hey baby."

I just wanted to tell you I love you and relax okay? Everything is going to be okay.

"Thank you baby and I love you too."

Alright miss so if you need the police press this red button right here and to arm the system press this green button. Now the rest is all touch screen so you can access the cameras inside and out, access tips for the system, and you can go back and look at recordings for different times and days.

"Okay thank you so much and you said there's also an app right?"

Yes ma'am. He nodded. Any more questions for me?

"No that's all thank you so much." I walked him out.

Have a nice day and here's my card if you have any questions or concerns.

"You too thank you."

I closed the door and sighed deeply.

So how are you feeling now? Bri asked.

"I feel better but still a little on edge. Ever since I ate that chinese my body has felt so bad like I feel tired and sluggish." I flopped down on my couch.

Why don't you do a cleanse? We can do one together.

"Yeah that would be a good idea."

So what-

"Keep that thought I'll be back." I got up going to see who was at my door.

I opened the door and didn't see anyone but there was a white rectangular box on the floor. I picked up the box and brought it inside with me.

What's that? Bri asked.

"I don't know there wasn't anybody out there when I opened the door." I got a knife and cut the tape off the box.

I opened the box and there was a bunch of black roses that looked partially burned.

"What the fuck?!" I slammed the lid back on the box and looked at Bri.

This shit is getting out of hand. She hugged me.

"I don't know who the fuck is bothering me but I'm tired of it." I yelled.

Yas check the cameras. Bri suggested and we walked over to the screen.

I clicked on the outside cameras and took it back about fifteen minutes. I seen a person drop the box off, ring the door bell, and run off down the street to the right. They had on all black and a hood so I couldn't tell who it was.

"Fuck man!"

It's okay Yas, you can go to the police with this maybe they can do something now.

"I can't handle this right now Bri it's too much going on. I'm scared to be in my own house let alone leave my house."

You don't have to feel like that Yas that's why you got a security guard and this system. Obviously who ever it is doesn't want to be caught, but giving this little bit to the police can help.

"Okay." I nodded wiping my tears.

What time is Rocky coming over?

"Not until later on tonight."

Do you want to come over until then?

"No it's okay I'm just going to stay here."

Are you sure you're going to be okay?

"Yeah I'll be fine thanks."

Okay I love you don't hesitate to call me.

"Love you too get home safe." I walked her out.

"Welp it's just me and you Ace." He licked my face.

I armed the system and went upstairs to take a nap.
