RULES AND ROSES II

VIII

I wasn't going to update until I got 10 comments 🙄 but I don't want the people who actually did comment wait. So thank you to the people that always support me! It never goes unnoticed!

It's been two days since Elias was taken. I couldn't eat or sleep. I was like a walking zombie. I sat by my phone all day waiting to hear something. Don and Kev were doing everything they could to find this girl but it was like she disappeared with my son.

"Come on baby. Eat a little something" Omari says trying to feed some soup. I shook my head and continued to stare at my phone. "Please" he says.
"I don't want to eat. Damn" I yell and walk away. I lay on the bed and silently cry. Omari knocks on the door and peeks his head in. He gets in the bed and embraces me and just holds me. We don't talk. He holds me and kisses my head. He always knew how to comfort me. I stopped crying but I still felt empty.

I hated the person I was becoming. I had no emotions. I couldn't be a good mother to Kairi in this state so she's staying with Ari and Ms. Lisa.

Don's POV
"So her last few places she's been was her apartment, the shop, and Nicki's crib. We checked all them places and the bitch ain't there. What do we do now" I ask. Kev shakes his head. "I don't know. I'm going to keep asking around to see if anybody knows anything" he says.

"Please find my son Kev" I say looking into his eyes. It's been the worst two days of my life. My newborn son was taken and I don't know if I'll ever see him again. It took everything in me not to breakdown. I had to be strong for my son. I had to find him.

"Don" Kev yells. I look in his direction. "Somebody said they saw that bitch with a baby at this corner store not to far from here" he says looking at his phone. "Let's go" I say grabbing my keys and we run to the car. I sped off and raced to the location. We ran in the store looking down every aisle. Nothing.

We went up to people and showed them the baby's picture and her picture. Still nothing. "Shit" I yelled. We walked back to the car when I hear a baby cry. My heads whips to the direction I hear it in and start walking towards it. I walked around the building and saw a woman putting something in her car.

"Hey" I yelled. She looked and she looked frightened. She quickly shut the door and got into her car. I ran up to the car and looked inside. "ELIAS" I yelled. I tried to open the door but it was locked. She sped off and I took off after the car. She drove fast and I ran out of breath. I tried to catch my breath for a minute and then I ran to my car. I hopped in and sped off after her.

While I whipped around corners and blew red lights, I realized I lost her. "Fuck. Fuck. Fuck" I yell and hit my steering wheel. I drove over to Nicki's spot.

"What do you mean you saw him" she says yelling. "I saw her and Elias. He's ok" I say. "Where are they" she says. "I lost her when I was trying to chase after her" I say as my head dropped. Tears rolled down my face. I fell Nicki walk over to me and hug me. We held each other as we cried. "I'm sorry" I said. "Shhh.. I know you tried" she says rubbing my back. She lets go and wipes my tears. "We will find him okay" she says. I nod but I wasn't feeling confident.

Bzz. Bzz. I open my messages.
