"You literally told me you was gone be out the same day. Its been three weeks, Kentrell" I said, over the phone, rolling my eyes.

"Ima Be out soon, Alexis. My court date is Friday. My lawyer gone get me out. Don't worry" he said. I was hella irritated about all of this. Joe drew his gun first. It could've been out of self defense. But they did end up killing him. So this was really a murder charge.

"Remind me again why they ain't lock up Beenie?" I asked. I hadn't talked to Belizean since that night. We had a falling out about the whole thing.

"I lied for him. I pulled the trigger, not him. He didn't deserve to go down like m-" the phone beeped, indicating he had 30 seconds left.

"Ima try to call you tomorrow. I love you" he said.

"I love you too" I said, the call ended.

I fell back on the bed, huffing loudly. I was still in Missouri at Kentrell's house. Three had been coming over occasionally to check on me, making sure I was good but Belizean never came with him. I snapped on her because she started acting stupid. Saying she felt bad that they killed Joe and if she could change things, she wish they would've killed her instead.

After I told her how dumb she sounded, she blocked me. I mean, ion think I was wrong. I was just being honest. It's just some shit you don't say. Why would you even think to say some shit like that?

These past few weeks been hella boring. And I was missing K badly. I just hoped he would get out sooner. Being in this big ass house alone is scary. Sleeping by myself every night is lonely. It's all bad. And to be limited to only hear his voice once a day is even worse.

And for me, I started to get depressed again. I been having deep thoughts about my dad, again. I missed him terribly and I feared for Dee being home by himself after everything that happened. I just didn't want the same thing to happen to him. Just the thought makes me anxious. I try to call him at least twice a day to make sure he's alright. If Kentrell was here, he'd comfort me but since he's not, I gotta comfort myself.

BUT, my birthday is on Saturday and I am finally turning 18. I'll be legal. Idk what I'm doing for it. I don't know anybody out here in Missouri so I'll probably just wait until Kentrell comes home to celebrate.

I walked downstairs to find me some food. His fridge had hella shit to eat inside of it. I LIKE IT HERE 💀. He had some pasta, pizza, spaghetti, ribs, etc. but really I was in the mood for spaghetti right now. I got a bowl and took the pot of spaghetti out and spooned some into the bowl. I put the spoon into the sink and washed it off then I put the pot back in the fridge and placed my bowl in the microwave for 2 minutes.

While I was waiting, I got a text from Beenie. I guess he was checking up per usual.

Beenie 🤣
You good? Need anything?

Me
Yeah. I'm cool.

Beenie 🤣
Ight lmk if you need sum.

Me
🆗

I turned my phone off and put it into my pocket of my jogging pants. I took my spaghetti out of the microwave and put it on the table. I got a fork and put it inside of the bowl. I took my headphones out and plugged it into my phone. I turned on Call on Me. I was feeling hella low right now and I needed to hear his voice.

I sat down and ate as I listened to the song.

"You ever call out of range, ima be there for you. Shawty ion need no ring just to prove my loyalty"
