Recap:

"Hey papa" I greeted trying not to sound annoyed.

"Hey baby, we found the shooter."

What in the actual fuck did my father just say? It sounded like he said they found the shooter.

"Baby, are you still there?" I was out of my element and had zoned out.

"Yeah, sorry, I'm on my way to the station bye," I didn't give him time to respond. I was out of the hospital and in my car in a flash.

While driving to the police station, my mind couldn't stop racing. Who was this guy who was trying to ruin my life? What did he want from me? Was he working alone or with someone? Was he even a he?

My attention shifted from my thoughts and to the song that started blaring in my car. Poison by Beyonce was just that song that hit me right in the feels.

You're bad for me
I clearly get it
I don't see how something good could come from loving you

I started singing along to the song

The death of me
Must be your mission
'Cause with every hug and kiss,
You're snatching every bit of strength

That I'm gon' need to fight off the inevitable
And it's a heart-breaking situation
I'm up in but I can't control

[Chorus:]
You're just like poison
Slowly moving through my system breaking all of my defenses with time

You're just like poison
And I just don't get it
How could something so deadly feel so right?

I'm not sure of what to do
It's a catch twenty-two
'Cause the cure is found in you,
I don't want it but I do

By now I was crying the Mississippi river! I missed Sade, my love

You're  just like poison
My affliction, I'm addicted, I can't lie
Kiss me one more time before I die

[Verse 2:]
You ain't right, take me high
Then that high, it subsides
And my body flat lines

Then you come to revive
Wait, wait, wait, I'm alive
But how long will it last?
Will it all come crashing down?

How many doses am I needin' now?
What's the prognosis, will you be around?
Or am I just another victim of an assassin that broke my heart down?

[Chorus:]
Baby, you're just like poison
Slowly moving through my system breaking all of my defenses with time

You're just like poison
And I just don't get it
How could something so deadly feel so right?

I'm not sure of what to do
It's a catch twenty-two
'Cause the cure is found in you,
I don't want it but I do

You're just like poison
My affliction, I'm addicted, I can't lie
Kiss me one more time before I die

[Verse 3:]
It's just not my body (oh),
It's my mind you don't know how many times I told myself this can't do (can't do)
And that I don't need you
(No, I don't need you, no)

It's so unfair
That I find myself right back in your care
And what's good is that when you're not always there (there, there)
You're no good for my health, my health

You're just like poison
Whoa, whoa, whoa

You're just like poison
Whoa, whoa, whoa

[Chorus:]
You're just like poison
Slowly moving through my system breaking all of my defenses with time

You're just like poison
And I just don't get it
How could something so deadly feel so right?

I'm not sure of what to do
It's a catch twenty-two
'Cause the cure is found in you,
I don't want it but I do

You're just like poison
My affliction, I'm addicted, I can't lie
Baby, kiss me one more time

You're just like poison
Slowly moving through my system breaking all of my defenses with time

You're just like poison
And I just don't get it
How could something so deadly feel so right?

I'm not sure of what to do
It's a catch twenty-two
'Cause the cure is found in you,
I don't wanna do

You're just like poison
I'm addicted, I can't lie
Kiss me one more time before I die

By the time the song had ended, I was already at the station. I quickly fixed myself and composed myself. I think I was ready to face whatever I had to.

Before entering, I called the hospital to find out if Sadé was awake because aye you never know. I missed her so much that it began to ache. I can't wait for the time I get to hear her sweet voice.

Where were we? Oh, so I sauntered into the station. My attitude clearly showed that I did not wish to be here. I've had bad memories at the police station and all of them were caused by Chris' actions.

"Hi papa," I said giving my dad a hug. It was comforting and soothing. My dad made me feel safe.

"Hello baby, you ready?" I gave him a slight nod. He walked me to one of the interrogation rooms and made us stand outside the door. 

"You ready?" he said.

I swallowed a huge lump of air then gave him a slightly hesitant nod. He slowly opened the door for me and I was greeted by a very unsuspecting face.

"Aubrey?!!"
