Did the crime. Do the time. || 26.

Tampa Florida.
Next day. | 8:23 am.

I woke up to alot of yelling and I was mad cause I hate when I get woken up out my sleep.

I snatched the covers off me but put them back on Londyn. I walked out my room and Shawn was arguing with somebody at the door.

"She didn't kill nobody! Fuck you mean let you in! Ian letting you in shit!" Shawn snapped.

Kill? The fuck. I was finna walk over to the door but I got snatched into the closet in the living room.

"What the fuck!" I yelled.

"Shh!" My dad did the shh face.

"The police here tryna take you in for killing me, thing is-"

"You not fucking dead. SO. Ian going no where." I responded trying to open the closet door.

"Butttttt. If you dont go in, I could go in for over 20 years just by faking my death." He said.

"Okay? I got a lil sister to take care of. Youn needa be on the streets anyway." I whispered back.

"Look. I promise you. You going to be out of jail before next week. Trust me." He responded.

I stared at him and push him off me then walked to the door.

"Look. There she is." The officer pointed to me forcing his way through the door.

"Ia be out soon." I said to Shawn as I rolled my eyes.

"Where the hell Cortasia nem a-"

"Anything you say or do could be used against you in the court of law. You have the right to an attorney, If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you." The officer said as he put me in handcuffs and we walked out the door. He put me in the back of the police car and got in the car and started talking on his walkie-talkie.

2 hours later | At the police station.

"Can you stop calling me by my last night? Call me Le'neya. Please and thank you." I said to the lady that was asking me questions.

"Okay. Sorry bout that ma'am." She replied.

"What were you doing around 4:30 pm on Tuesday in September 2020." She asked.

"On September 28th around 4:30ish in Detroit I was coming home from school and saw my little sister on the couch." I said being honest.

"Who was near? Who was in the house?" She asked as she wrote stuff down on a piece of paper.

"My momma was in the house. Her boyfriend and my little sister." I responded.

"Her boyfriend? Such as your Father right?" She asked.

"Look. Ian go sit up here and lie to you, so boom. It was a normal day at school but shit was already funny from the night before cause I saw my ex on that a side of town he not suppose to be cause people want his head. That same day, my momma and my daddy was arguing in the kitchen after i got out of school because we NEEDED to move because of my mother."

"Anywho, on September 28th. I walk through the door and saw my little sister on the couch, I asked her where my dad was and she didnt say. A few moments later I heard a man talking that didnt sound like my dad. The man and my mom was walking down the stairs. My mom called me out my name and alot of angry built up inside of me. I rushed towards her and my dad came bursting through the door. Him and the man started fighting, he touched the floor. That was my Q to do something."

"I went in the kitchen, grabbed a gun and shot. When I shot the gun my body jumped my eyes closed cause it was my first time. I was shaking when I saw who I shot and it started and ended from there." I explained the full story to her.

"Thank you so much for that Le'neya. Where was your little sister that you mentioned in the story?" She asked.

"On the couch. Crying and screaming." I said blunty.

"Hello?" I spoke.

"Wassgood. Everybody go make sure you straight while you doing that we-"

"Its coo. Lemme speak to my D." I said not trying to say D so we wont get caught up.

"Hey baby." He spoke.

"Who you think told?" I asked.

"This call maybe monitored and recorded." The voice over interrupted him.

"Heyy Londynnnn! Ima see you soon. K? Be good for them and listen to everything they tell you." I added on.

"Otay. wove you." She replied.
