Beep!Beep!Beep!

My alarm clock ringed as I sat up in the bed as it read 8:30a.m in the morning. I hit the dismiss button as I slipped on my bedroom slippers and got ready for work.

I am a fashion designer and a hell of a good one. I slipped on a pair of high waisted denim shorts,a hot pink and lime green spaggetty strap crop top,hot pink wedges and gold hoops. I headed to the restroom and did my hygiene and curled my hair.I finished up my last curl as it dropped perfectly against my Carmel skin and grabbed my purse and rushed down stairs.

"Good morning have a good day at work." Jason said as he kissed me on my lips.

'Okay, see you later,love you . "I said as I grabbed a apple and rushed out the door and into my car.

When I got to work I headed to my work space and sketched out a design as,i wrote down the type of material I'll be using.

"What up boo."my best friend Angel said as she ran up to me and gave me a hug.

"Nothing much just trying to get this design together.How bout you?"I ask as she sat down next to me.

"Well I'm having a party in a couple days and was wondering if you'll come."she said.

"Who the party for?"I asked as She looked at me like I was crazy.

"My brithday."she said as she rolled her eyes.

"Oh yeah, I knew that."I lied.

"Yeah what ever Pleasure."Angel said as she laughed.

Me and Angel been friends since I was in Foster care. After I left Justice,She was mainly the only person I trusted and Im glad to call her my friend because she helped me throughout some hard times.

"Yeah I guess,I hope I don't have to stay at work any longer then I have to today because I got other stuff to do."I said as I added color to my design.

"Okay,i love you but i have to get back to my station before i get in trouble." Angel said as she hurried away with her ponytail swinging from left to right .

After work I headed home and cooked some dinner. I put the plates out on the table nicely and putted food in the plate as I waited for Jason to get home.

1 HOUR LATER........

Jason still haven't got home so I wrapped up his plate and headed upstairs.

Jason had been coming home late lately and I'm sick and tried of it. He says he work overtime but that's nearly every got damn day.I went up to our bedroom and laid down as I called him.It went straight to voicemail. The clock read 9:41p.m as I doze off to sleep.

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

Me and Justice screamed as we ran into his room and locked the door.

"Come on we have to go."Justice said as we climbed out the window.

"What about our parents?"I asked hoping that the bad guys miss them.

Justice didn't respond . We both ran throughout the back yard and into the front where police stood with there guns out.

A small,darkskinned police officer jogged her way towards me and Justice as I stood close to him.

"Are you kids okay."the lady said as bent down on her knees and grabbed me and Justice hand."I'm Ms.Howard what is your names?"she asked.

"Pleasure."

"Justice"we said as she stood up.

"Well Pleasure and Justice I'm going to need you two to come with me." She said as she took both Justice and my hand into hers.

"I want my mom."I said as she continue to walk away from the house.I snatched back my hand and ran towards the house as the Ms.Howard struggled to catch up with me.

"Pleasure please come back here."she said as she ran behind me as Justice stood watching.

I ran inside the house as I seen my parents lifeless bodies covers in blood.I felt sick to my stomach .my mom was laid out on the floor with her eyes open.Her green eyes glisten in the sun .I dropped to my knees and screamed.

"Mom!dad!"I cried as I ran over to my mom and shook her trying to wake her."please come back!"I cried .I was pull away from my mom and outside.

I kicked and screamed.

"Mom!I...I....want m-my mom!"I screamed as Ms.Howard held me in her arms as I cried.

Haaaaaa!I screamed as I woke up. I was sweating hard as tears fell down my cheeks.I breathed in and out as I got up out the bed.I looked at the clock and it read 3:56a.m in morning.I was upset.

Where in the hell is he? I asked myself .I quickly walked down stairs ,but no one was home. I hate it here.

I made me a cup of coffee while calling Jason cell phone.Voicemail.

I sat down on the kitchen counter and drunk my coffee . Hearing someone at the door, I looked at the clock 4:05a.m.

Oh he'll nall.

He open the door trying to creeped upstairs.

I hate when his ass think he slick with his dum ass. Since when have I been stupid doo,his ass got me Fuck up.

I walked behind him. Jason still creeping up the stair like the jack add he is .Entering the room I watched how he scanned the room. I shook my head standing at the door.

"So you had fun?"I asked scaring the hell out of him.

"Ummm Hey baby I was just....."

"Sneaking in the house at 4 in the damn morning,that's what the hell you were doing."I said as I slammed my hand onto my hip.

"Bae I don't even want to agrue right now.I'm tried and I just want to go to sleep."he said siting on the edge of the bed . He started to remove his clothes, starting with his shirt.

"Well maybe if you do what the hell you have to do we won't have to argue.Let me ask you this,you get off of work at 8:00p.m honey why in the hell you walking in the house at 4 in morning?"I said fed up with this conversation.

"Ummm...my car broke down and..."

"You know what I don't want to even hear that bull shit.Just get yo ass outta my room and on the couch with yo lying ass.Anybody that got some damn sense will know you lying. "I said. Throwing him so sheets from the clothes door, I waited for him to walk out the room.

"You see this is why we can never...."

I cut him off .

"Blah blah blah."I said as I slammed the door in his face.I am not bout to sit up and hear this bull shit.
