Tisha left the house around 6pm. My mom
and dad called my phone back to back, but I
ignored. I'm sure all they wanted to do was
complain about the mess I got myself into. I
didn't want to hear it even if it was an
emergency in which I doubted.

After all the ruckus, I finally was able to clear
my head. I relaxed in a nice hot bubble bath
and listened to the sound of Ciara's song And I.
Just the perfect mood I was in. My body was
sore after a long morning of hot sex and
breaking up the fight between Antwan and
David.

I spent a nice 45 minutes of soaking before
stepping out the tub and putting my robe on.
My hair was wrapped in a towel. I looked in the
mirror at my bare face with red eyes from all
the crying.

Suddenly I heard the noise of what seemed
to be the sound of a break in. As far as I knew, I
was home alone. Was it David? I wondered. I
was too afraid to step out of the bathroom. I
didn't want to make a peep. To make matters
worse my cell phone was left on my bed in the
room. I heard foot steps getting closer to the
door. My heart raced frantically. Was David
here to attack me? Who else would be here?

Unexpectedly the door nob was turned
before the door cracked opened. To my
surprise Antwan was standing before me with a
gun in his hand. He was holding the gun to his
side, "Tierra." He said with sweat beads on his
forehead. I was confused by his actions. "Baby,
what are you doing? Why do you have that
gun?" I asked. "I been looking for you bae. I
wasn't sure who was here. I climbed through
the window." He said. I didn't respond as I was
still confused. "T something bad happened and
I gotta get out of town. I was just coming to tell
you bye." He spoke in a panic. "Tell me bye?!
Wait what happened Twan? What do you
mean? I don't understand!" I replied. "Baby I
don't want to lose you, but I gotta go I can't
stay to long. You can stand here and ask me
questions or you can come with me." He
expressed before getting on his knee and
grabbing my hand. "Tierra come with me. It
will be perfect." He stated. "I know you're
supposed to go to college. I hate to stop you,
but I can't be without you." He had a look of
sincerity that gleamed in his eyes. "You come
with me ma, I promise that I will take care of
you! You won't ever have to worry about shit!
Just leave everything here and let's start over! I
got money stashed away. Let's just leave New
York! Let's get our house you been talking
about with the gold picket fence." He stated.

I'm not going to lie I'm not sure that I trusted
this, but it was a heart over head matter and

time was of the essence. "I'd love to leave with
you babe. I thought you'd never ask." I
admitted. He was so excited that he picked me
up off my feet and spun me around with my
legs wrapped around him. "How fast can you
get dressed?" He whispered before kissing my
forehead. "Don't make daddy wait too long."
He said.
