"Shiii he crazy crazy", Angelica says laying on my bed as I wipe the blood off my face.
"Hell yeah. It's making me rethink this whole damn assignment."
"You didn't think it was goin be easy....did you?"
"No I didn't, but it's the simple fact that he killed somebody in front of me. It's not the first time that I've seen somebody die but that shit gave me real life PTSD. Images from the past keep flashing and I j-
"Breathe....in and out. Just breathe."
I do as told and breathe in and out.
"That's it. Just keep breathing."
My phone begins to ring and Angelica picks it up.
"It says unknown."
"Don't answer it. I know it's him."
She nods and declines the call.
"You can't keep ignoring him forever."
"Yes I can."
"I don't see what the big deal is. You took the deal to get this nigga. Yes I know that what he did activated your PTSD, but you're just as dangerous as he is. You gotta get up and finish what you started. What can I tell you is, take a few days off, get yourself together, and then go after this man."
I nod my head. "You're right."
"Ion want you thinking that I'm forging you to do this because im not. You're the strongest female I know, besides myself and you're more than capable of handing yourself. Don't let this crazy man drive you away. Just play it safe and get back in the game."
I sigh. "Alright."

𝗞𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗘"You could've killed a kid dawg", my homie, Mud says to me as we drive around.
"But I didn't."
"But you could've."
"Whatever."
"My nigga, have you been taking your meds?"
"I stopped taking those bitches a long time ago."
"You so stupid. The pills the only thing that helps you."
"Those pills fuck with my hormones, so I'm cool. I got other helpful methods."
"Codeine and Adderall ain't helpful methods."
"I stopped taking Codeine first off and yes adderall is helpful."
"You goin fuck around and kill yoself."
"You not my dad Mud, so mind your business."
"I'm tryna help yo stupid ass out, but ight."
I roll my eyes and look out the window as we pass through many neighborhoods.
Feel like I'm forever trapped here. If not physically, then mentally.
"What you goin do about that one girl?"
"Who?"
"You know that one girl."
"Olivia?"
"That's her name? Mhmm."
"Yeah."
"So what you goin do about her?"
