^^^^^ 'What A Wonderful Day' recap
"Rakim, who are you with?" Myra asked me, sounding worried.
"I'm with Dianna and a couple of friends, why?"
"Just a few weeks ago, we found a car with blood splatter in it..."
"You found Travis?" I asked.
That would have been impossible though. I was just playing along.
"Rakim, the blood was identified as your mother's and the splatter pattern was consistent with that of a gunshot wound. When was the last time you talked to her?"
"The day before I moved out. She was high."
"I'm going to need you to come in for a couple more questions in the morning, Rakim" Myra said.
It was 1:34am.
It was the morning.
"No" I shook my head.
"Rakim-"
"You'll see me when I stop by to pick Raven up. Today's my son's birthday, and whenever I wake up, thatand only that will be my focus for today. Have a good night, Myra"
The call ended and my phone slipped from my grasp.
"Rakim?" Miles asked, looking in the rearview mirror. "Are you good, bro?"
I clenched my fist and allowed my eyes to close. My mind went blank.
My mother and I didn't exactly get along, but that was not the basis for execution.
"I'ma just drop you by Khassidy's place, Rakim. You can cool out for the night. We don't need you." Miles said.
"If you drop me by there, I'm going out by my fucking. self." I spat.
"I think you should just wait before you get caught up on Rocky's birthday. You planned that big ass party, and you wouldn't want to miss it, would you?"
"Miles, don't try to talk to me" I picked up my phone and called Khass.
"Hey, Rocky. I just texted you" She responded.
"I just - I need you to get my guns from downstairs and I need you to get my chloroform, and a bat, and some pepper spray" I said and ran my hand up my face.
Miles got off at the exit to Khassidy's.
"Rakim, what happened? Are you okay?" She asked.
"I'ma tell you when I get back" I said. "I'ma be there in five" I hung up.
"Do you have another shirt?" I asked Miles.
He sighed, but nodded his head.
As soon as we pulled up to Khassidy's, she opened the door for me.
