As Yonna wakes up, she doesn't feel Adonis on the other side of bed. She gets up and checks on her phone and he leaves her a text "Hey baby I know you needed some rest.. I'm off to training at the gym with Unc I'll see you later tonight..love you"
Yonna finishes getting up and dressed heading off to work. She calls a Lyft to take her to work. She heads straight in her office closing the door. Dayna walks in "Hey Yonna I heard about yesterday in court I'm sorry"
"Don't be sorry for me..it's better than going to jail he's trying to ruin me Dayna"
"I know after the regional manager heard about this, he didn't want to fire you; I was ready to convince him that you are the best here at Essence and I would try to keep you here"
"I appreciate it Dayna"
"You are not in this alone"
"I know Donnie told me the same thing last night"
"Terrence is a asshole.. he's like a child if he don't get his way it's ridiculous.."
"It's not ridiculous.. he's a psycho!"
"So if you don't wanna be here today you don't have to be"
"I need to keep busy besides Donnie isn't home he's in training most of the day til tonight..I didn't wanna be alone in the house"
"So on a happier subject have you planned your wedding yet since I'm the last one to hear about it you know Jaz can't keep a secret by the way congratulations"
"Thanks..not yet I don't even have a set date and plus me and Donnie and I are gonna announce it soon..just telling who is close to us and on top of that dealing with Terrence's shit now"
"Well I'm getting an invite right?"
"Of course you are"
"I can't wait.. Well I'm gonna go and approve some articles I'll talk to you later"
"Okay see ya girl"Yonna is working on her designs when she gets a beep from her desk phone "Ms. Woods you have a phone call" "Yonna Woods.. hello?.. hello?"
Silence filled the phone and she hangs up. "Wrong number I guess" as she continues her work. Two hours later, her desk phone rings again "Yonna Wo.."
"Hello Yonna"
"Who's this?" Yonna couldn't recognize the voice and it sounded distorted and the call is hangs up "Who the hell was that?"Yonna finishes up her workday and clocks out at 7pm and calls for a Lyft to take her back to her old apartment to finish packing up the rest of her things to take to Adonis's house. She unlocks the door and gathers the rest of her small boxes and places them against the wall next to the door. She double checks her kitchen,living room and bathroom to make sure she didn't miss anything. She heads to her bedroom and opens the door to see something that made her scream.
Bianca was laying in the middle of the bedroom floor holding on to life as she was stabbed multiple times as blood covered the hardwood floor. Yonna goes to her "Bianca hold on I'm gonna call 911"
Bianca said in a low voice holding Yonna's arm
"Yonna..he did this to me"
"Who?"
"Terrence"
"Shit! hold on I'm calling 911 okay if I can find my phone!"
"No I'm dying Yonna.. he's setting you up for murdering me"
"Why would he try to kill you?"
"I don't know he snapped..he grabbed a knife and started chasing me then he got a hold of me and started stabbing me as many times as he could and brought me here to frame you"
"That sick fuck.. damn where's my phone?!"Bianca's breathing starts slowing down and Yonna couldn't find her phone. "Looking for this?"
Yonna stood against the wall and
Terrence had Yonna's phone walking towards her holding it with her and Adonis picture on her lock screen "Aww how cute.. you and Donnie.. see we could've have been a great couple Yonna but you know I can make you disappear."as he snaps his fingers
"Terrence please..Bianca needs a hospital please help her she's your wife"
"I don't give a shit about her..I married her to get over you but it didn't work so that's why she's laying there dying"He turns to Bianca and looks down on her and bends down "Pathetic you thought I loved you.. nope you're dismissed"
He pulls her up by her hair and takes the knife slicing the middle of her throat and Yonna couldn't move it's like she froze and tried to scream but she couldn't. Bianca chokes on her blood falling to the floor and dies quickly shortly after.
