Recap
"Yeah I was told you girls were coming. Come on follow me. There's clothes in the back and just hide in the attic that's there to. To ahead and get cleaned up I got you guys," she said leading us to the room. She closed the door and there was a tiny little window on the door letting us see out. My heart skipped a beat when Charles walked through those doors.

"Did you see a few girls come in here," he asked sliding a role of hundreds to her with a smirk.

"Nahhh, plus I just in I ain't seen nobody but you. Not to mention its almost one and we close at one. Soon as you leave I gotta lock up and clean up," she replied looking lost.

"O okay well if you do you know my number. I wouldn't want this place to accidentally blow up on purpose."

"I swear no one came in today but you Bruh," she said in a serious tone.

"Okay thanks and keep the cash. It may be bigger than yo pay check."

"Thanks," she replied dryly.

He walked out the store and I let out a breath of relief. She put the close sign up and counted the money Charles gave her

"We're good," I smiled.

"And we are free," added Jakarie.

"Not for long, if he's still alive," said Honest wiping the sweat from
her forehead.

"She's right," added Bubbles.

"What the fuck. The the hell you want us to do all this in a day. We risked our lives running and we lost Clover. We got free and he lost mainly all his girls," said Jakarie.

"I know but still we're not fully free if he's still alive. What if he tries looking for us. Then what," said Honest.

"I don't know but we need to get cleaned up and call the cops."
The cashier from earlier came in with a smile on her face.

"Hey," she greeted.

"Hi, thanks so much for helping," I said while staring at her.

"You good, Davontae told me you would be coming. But hey the cops are on their way I already called."

"Thanks so much."

"Well Imma give you girls this cash that jack as left me. Its $5,000 and its five of you so you both get $1,000 I guess," she said while taking out one thousand each and handing it to us.

"So what now," I asked staring off into space.

"I don't know but you girls can chill in here. I can keep you company but I want you guys to tell me what happen."

She got us some chips and soda and we sat in a circle.

"Where were you guys," she asked.

"In hell burning slowly," Jennifer replied sipping on her pineapple Fanta and stuffing a salt and vinegar chip in her mouth.

"It's a long story that none of us wanna talk about," I replied correctly.

"Its fine I'm glad you guys are okay and I'm not easily bribe. Even if he was I'm not putting anyone's life in danger for nothing and I mean that."

"Thanks again but what month is this," asked Bubbles.

I was curious to. We lost track of the month and always knew the time because of the watches. Its been two years and my ass is just all over the place right now. I really wanted to know what my beautiful five year old is up to now. And was her bond with Tamia close as ever even though she's a baby.

"Its December 3rd 2017," she replied looking at us weird.

"Damn time flew by," laughed Jakarie.

I looker over at Jennifer who had a straight fave staring off into space and it wasn't like her. She would only stare off into space if she was high or if she was upset.

"You ite Jenny," I asked coming closer to sit by her.

"Yeah I'm fine I just need to handle some stuff back home."

"Like what?"

"A promise I made to Carmona."

"About her kids."

"Yeah I'm gonna get a job and take care of her kids."

To be honest I trust Jennifer with kids because she practically raised Guney since birth and its crazy. She would have them twins just like her. Crazy and smart.

"I'm always here to help you," I replied smiling.

"Thanks."

"No problem. We been through to much to quit on each other."

She gave me a head nod and we all were interrupted by police sirens in the distance. Seconds later we saw the red and blue lights flashing.

"That's them," said the cashier.

We all stood up and followed her out the room and the bright flashing lights shined through the glass of the store. The girl opened the door and we all went out to be surrounded by cops. It was about 15 cars or here.

"Ladies are you all okay," he asked us.

We all nodded in agreement we were okay and we were all escorted to a car. Jennifer, Jakarie, and I sat in the back of one police car as we hugged each other knowing that we made it out alive. I didn't have no words for the horrifying experience that we went through. The ride back to Oakland was quiet and for once in a while I felt comfortable taking a nap knowing nothing was going to happen to me. And I was happy to get back home to my daughters. But instead of living in Oakland I want better for me and my kids. I want to live in a safer neighborhood knowing I won't get shot going to check my mail. And if Charles do come looking for me then he gone regret it and I out that on my kids if k see him I will kill him. He tool two years of my life and those two years I was away from my children was the most painful experience I've had yet.
