*2 weeks later*

AK's POV

Bird: Have you caught up with ol girl Alexus?

AK: Nah.. Why what's up?

Bird: Leah told me what happened to her and I wanted to know how she was doing.

AK: Wait... How Leah know bout it? *silence* Sayyyy...

Bird: Man I don't know... She just told me like a week ago..

I hung up and called Leah.

Leah: What's up baby daddy?

AK: How you know about what happened to Alexus?

Leah: What you talking about?

AK: You told Bird about Alexus... Nigga don't play dumb right now cuss that ain't gone do nothing but piss me off.

Leah: Hold up nigga... Why the fuck would I be taking notes on yo bitch? Miss me wit that bullshit... I really don't give a fuck what happened to her. How bout this... You won't see Lil Ant until you get yo head out her ass...

This bitch on some other shit!!! I got up off the couch and grabbed my car keys.

"Fuck she thinking about.. Bitch must don't.." "You shouldn't talk to yourself." somebody said interrupting my thoughts. I looked behind me and it was Alexus. She had on blue shorts, a Gamma Jordan Shirt, and some Jordan Gamma 12s. "People gone think you crazy..." she said smiling. I must've ran to her and picked her up. "Not too hard AK..." I loosened up a little bit but kept her close. When I finally let her go I said, "Girl I been worried bout you... The boys losing they mind. Leah talking about taking Lil Ant until I get my head out yo ass. Whatever the hell that's suppose to mean... How you feel?" She looked sexy as hell. Her skin was glowing. Brown skin is just..... LAWD. And that ass was about to bust them shorts. "I feel fine.. Where was you going?" she said looking at my keys. "To Leah house... Bird told me that she told bout you getting hurt and I..." "Wait who is Bird and what he look like?" She said changing her face. "Leah brother.... We call him Bird because when he was little he was scared of birds and when got older he got a bird tattooed on his neck." Alexus just started crying and balled up. "Hey... Alexus.. What is it? Talk to me girl..." I said trynna get her to speak. Tatyana came running to Alexus. "WHAT DID YOU SAY!?!?" she screamed at me. "I was telling her about this dude I know name bird and she did this..." She got Alexus to stand up and walked her to the car.

When Alexus got into the car and calmed down Tatyana walked over to me. "Look... She got raped by a dude with a bird tattoo on his neck. He was white and tall. I need you to find him AK.." she said looking around. "He's my homeboy... Well he's Leah's brother... I'm gone kill him." I said looking around. "No..." Alexus said standing behind us. "I want him to rot in jail... A rapist in jail is nothing but somebody's new bitch..... Let the police catch him." She said walking off. "You sure?" I said watching her. "Yes.."

Alexus' POV

*the next day*

BITCH YOU GUESSED IT! "Tatyana!!!!! Can you get my phone please?" Tatyana ran down the hall to get my phone as I sat on the couch eating a bowl of cereal with Monta. Saturdays were the days that we bonded. "Nanna you see that bird.. He run real fast!" Monta said. I giggled and Tatyana walked in. "It's Detective Jones..." she said sit next to me and handing me the phone.

*conversation*

Alexus: Hello?

Detective Jones: Ms. Peters?

Alexus: Yes...

Detective Jones: How you doing Ms. Peters? I'm Detective Jones and I was calling to tell you that we have found your rapist but we need you to come identify him out of a line up.

Alexus: When?

Detective Jones: Now if you can...

Alexus: I'll be there in about twenty minutes.

Detective Jones: Okay

"Y'all go get dressed..." I said standing up. "Where we going?" Tatyana asked. "To identify..."
