[Aubrey]
All night I was tossing and turning. I just couldn’t sleep all I was thinking about was the event that just occurred. In reality I’m scared to death. I already know what Debo is capable of doing. I decided to get up and get a glass of water. I was the only one in the house and it was pitch black. I didn’t know where the light switch was so I felt my way downstairs to the kitchen. I opened the fridge and was startled when I saw Quincy sitting at the island. He looked tired and stressed I could tell he was worried about the situation. I grabbed a bottle of water out of the fridge and sat next to him. He didn’t look or say anything to me he just sat there with the same expression on his face. I touched his shoulder and he flinched before turning to look at me. He let out a deep sigh and rubbed his forehead in frustration.
“I thought you were at the hospital”
He looked and me before speaking “the bullet went straight through and I released myself”
“Quincy I’m sorry” I softly spoke to him
“Aubrey I already told you its ok”
“I know it’s just that-“
“Look we’ll talk about this tomorrow” he said before leaving and heading up stairs.
I drank the water and headed back up stairs. I took three deep breaths and let sleep take over my body. I woke up and saw a McDonald’s bag beside my bed on the night stand. I opened it and felt the warm air come out of it. it must have not been sitting there for too long. I ate the food and took a shower. When I got out I realized I didn’t have any clothes. Searching the drawers I found a big button down shirt and tied it into a dress. Making my way down stairs I could hear Quincy and his friends discussing what happened. I peeped around the corner and Quincy motioned for me to sit down. As soon as I sat down all eyes were on me.
“So Aubrey how do you know Debo?” Cedes asked
I started playing with my nails before replying “he’s one of my clients” I could see Tank shaking his head out the corner of my eye. “I swear I wouldn’t have done it if I knew it was you”
“Never trust a hoe bruh” tank said
“Tank chill with that-“Quincy began to say before I interrupted him
“I may not be a high class bitch but I’m not about to sit here and let you make a fool out of me and if you didn’t notice I have way more information about this nigga than all of ya’ll. I could’ve let him kill your sorry ass last night. Just like me you don’t have a job were both doing illegal shits so don’t think you’re any better than me. Quincy I’m sorry but I can’t deal with this bullshit anymore.” I left them all there speechless.
I began to walk down the street deep in my thought. I’m tired of being judged by what I do but it’s the only way I can help pay these bills. I wish Debo would just hurry up and kill me now. I was so deep in my thoughts that I didn’t even notice Quincy pulling up beside me. He rolled down the windows and told me to get in the car so I did. He apologized for his friends and drove back to his house. When I got there tank looked me up and down before apologizing. I accepted his apology and sat back down on the couch getting ready to tell them the rest of the information.

It’s been a whole day and Aubrey still isn’t home. Although I know the “job” she does she never stays out this late. I’ve been praying to god that she’s alright and hopefully didn't get caught up with one of her customers. Last night some guy came looking for her. I sure hope she isn’t dating him because he was pretty cute. He was tall, almond skin tone, and long dreads braided back. Last night I was worrying about Aubrey when I heard someone knocking on the door. I rushed to open it thinking that it was her when it was really the guy. He looked at me and licked his lips before asking if Aubrey was here. I told him that I haven’t seen her and tried to close the door. He put his foot in the door and asked for my number. I blushed then gave it to him. After he left I called the police station and they told me they couldn’t file a missing person report until the person was missing for 48 hours. I hope Aubrey is okay wherever she is and comes home. I was pacing around the room thinking of where she could be until my phone vibrated. I looked down to see a number I didn’t recognize.
Unknown number: wasgood ma?
Toya: sorry but who is this?
Unknown number: the guy from last night.
Toya: Ohh okay I never got your name tho
Unknown number: My bad its Debo… have you seen Aubrey yet?
Toya: sorry I haven’t is there something wrong? I’ve been worrying about her.
Debo: oh nah I’m just an old friend that’s in town and I wanted to see her. You busy tonight?
Toya: no I’m not
Debo: okay be ready by eight.
I blushed a little reading that text. I don’t know if it was how demanding he was but I liked it. I went upstairs to start getting ready for whatever he had planned. I settled with a knee high pink bodycon dress with a jean jacket and low heels. I sat on the couch waiting for him to arrive. He knocked on the door and I took my time getting it. When I opened the door his mouth dropped. He led me to his car and we made our way to an Italian restaurant. He is a complete gentleman he opened the door for me and pulled out my chair. I think I like him but we’ll just have to wait and see.
“So how long have you known Aubrey?” Debo asked
“a few years now” I didn’t want to go into detail on how we met so I kept it short. “What about you?”
“Well we were childhood friends but my parents moved to Colorado for a job when I was younger and I just got back into town”
“Oh well that’s sweet that you’re trying to reconnect with”
He slightly laughed “yeah you just don’t know”
The rest of the night went pretty well and I will definitely be seeing him again. Aubrey has her man and it’s time to get mine I don’t think I will tell her about him until I really know where he and I are going.
