Diamond's POV
I haven't been able to sleep knowing that my first everything is gone. Joymya has been keeping me up and going, though. I do everything for her and the little one inside me.
I'm currently in the kitchen making pancake, eggs, bacon, and more food. Joymya comes into the kitchen. "Good morning, Mommy."
"Hey shorty." I watch as she look at the empty chair beside her with tears in her eyes. I hug her quickly as she cries.
I cry as well. We eat and prepare to do some work. She gets her tablet and charger. Jessica comes over.
"I left you some breakfast in the kitchen." I say as she speaks to us.
Jessica's POV
I look at Diamond and Joymya as I eat. She's one strong woman. I'm sad too. " Diamond, you ready to get this work done?"
"Yeah." She replies weakly. Joymya smiles at me. As I sit at the table, I get the paperwork and laptop out.
"I'm done Mommy! I need a nap!" Joymya hugs Diamond's legs and kisses her stomach.
"Okay kiddo." We watch as Joymya goes up stairs.
"How are you?" I ask.
"I'm okay."
"Okay. Let me ask you this again. How are you?"
"I'm okay, Jessica."
"Uh huh. This is the latest on the business and new comers." Diamond and I work together.
"I can't believe I just let that bitch into our lives. It was unexpected. She's tried to take Joymya away, ruin my marriage, and she's been trying to take Jamal away, by having him sleep with her. Jessica, grab my other purse out the closet."
I smile at her "what about Joy."
"You'll be here." With that said she leaves the house.
......
Diamond's POV"Okay little one. Stay alive." I get out the car at the tramps house.
I knock on the door and wait.
"Look who decided to join the dead party." Ophelia says.
"Bitch touch me if you bad and see what happens." She backs up.
"Your husband's dead, so what the fuck are you doing here?"
"I'm here to give your evil ass a warning.
Jamal's POV
I hear Diamond's voice. I don't know if it's real or my imagination.....
Diamond's POV
"Ophelia.... Ophelia... How mother fucking stupid could you really be?"I ask.
She steps a bit too close for my liking, so I cock my gun. "One more step closer and I'm beating your ass for Jamal, Joymya, and I."
She's glued to her spot, looking at the gun. "You aren't gonna do shit."
"Take one step and find out." She doesn't move. "I made the mistake of letting you in my family's life."
"Jamal is dead. Get over yourself. He never loved you."
Her foot moved forward, so I slapped her hard with the gun. "Want to take another step?"
"No, but do you want to see where you'll be when you die?"
I swallow really hard, but I know I'll have a chance to see Chocolate Bear. "Yeah."
"She trips me. Thankfully, I fall on my back. Due to the pregnancy, I'm slow at getting up. Ophelia then drags me into a chamber. She pushes a button and I hear a string being pulled.
It's Jamal. Hanging from the ceiling.
"He's dead. See it. Believe it." I cry silently. The rope has blood running down it. No Jamal.
I get a chance to put her on the floor and I take it. I kick her legs, causing her to fall.
She reaches for me, but I'm quick to scoot away and slowly get up. "Hold on little one. That's your dad."
I feel a little kick. "Bitch you and that baby about to die."
"I have tried to be nice to your stupid ass, you need another shot? In your face this time?"
The punches me, so I kick her. I continue to kick her and then get up. I walk over to Jamal and kiss his bloody clothes and look up into his face. Nothing.
Leaving, I kick Ophelia in the crotch and shoot her in the foot.
"Come any closer to me or my family and I'll be glad to see you suffer."As I get in the car, I cry. I just let it out. Jamal's really dead. As I pull up to the house, I hurry and clean my face.
Jessica opens the door with Joymya in her arms. "Aww, no."
I hug Jessica and cry all over again. Joymya hugs me as well.
"Come on bestie. I'll make you some tea."
"Joy. Can you go upstairs?"
Jessica's POV
When Joymya leaves, Diamond screams and cries as I hold her. "Don't worry."
Jamal is here with you and Joy."
"I have to explain another death to her. I don't think her little heart can take it."
A knock sounds at the door. Jessica answers it for me. I hear a gun shot and slowly rush to see what happened. Jessica turns to me and walks away from the door.
Ophelia is on the ground and blood is coming from her body. Looking at Jessica, she shrugs and sits in the couch.
She calls 911. When they arrive, I go upstairs to Joymya's room. I cuddle next to her and fall asleep.
....
Dream..."Baby, you gotta stay strong for me and my little ones. Tell them about all the good times we've had. The bad, too. Keep them safe and keep ya head up, Thickums.... Thickums.... Thickums....
I wake up startled, and look beside me. The space beside me is still empty. "I'll do it for you, Jamal. I love you."
I realize that I'm sweating, so I get up and get some water. Jessica's on the couch asleep. I wonder when the police left.
Turning on the TV, I watch Trolls: World Tour. I feel my body warm up, so I smile and think of Jamal.
"Mr. Dinkles!" I love Mr. Dinkles.
.....
