CHRIS POV
I've been friends with Sabti for three months now and whilst I don't usually deal with females unless it's a one night stand, but I can't seem to shake her off my mind and we haven't even had sex! We call each other, grab a bite to eat and everything. The more time we spend, the more I fall in love in with her. My friends tell me to stay away from her because she's married, but I don't give a damn because she's been keeping me happy when others can't.
I was driving to see my Mom when I saw a couple arguing up the road ahead. It looked like, nah, it WAS her, it was Sabti! And she was arguing with none other than DeVante.

Sabti: I don't want to talk about this anymore! Leave me alone!

DeVante: Nah, we gon' talk about this!

She turned her back and he grabbed her, violently shaking her. She wiggled, squirmed and groaned from how tight his grip was on her.

Sabti: Get off me!

DeVante: Who was in this house?

Sabti: Ugh! Get off me!

He shook her one more time and the next thing I know, he backhanded her so hard she fell to the ground. Ah hell naw!

I got out the car and ran up to DeVante, shoving him and ready to throw down.

Me: THE FUCK YOU THINKING!? PUTTING HANDS ON A FEMALE, ESPECIALLY YOUR WIFE!?

DeVante: SHE'S LYING TO ME!!!

Me: YOU CAN'T HANDLE IT NO BETTER THAN THAT!?

I punched him in the face and helped Sabti up. Her nose was bleeding profusely and she was clearly dazed so I pulled her into my car and drove her to the nearest hospital.

AN HOUR LATER...
I stayed all night in the hospital until I could see Sabti's beautiful brown eyes. I was nodding off until I heard a woman's faint voice. I opened my eyes and Sabti was glancing at me.

Me: Hello there, baby.

Sabti: Where am I?

Me: Silverwood Community Hospital. I drove you to the hospital because I caught DeVante beating on you.

Sabti: What? Where did you come from when---

Me: I was driving to see my Mama when I saw you and your husband fighting in the middle of the road. The next thing I know, he hit you knocking you out.

Sabti: ....And he isn't here to help me?

Me: Nope!

From there, she burst into tears.....covering her face and sobbing uncontrollably. I went over to comfort her and before you know it, I was being confronted by two police officers who ushered me to come out of the room and into the hallway.

Officer #1: Are you Christopher Brown?

Me: Yes.

Officer #2: Put your hands behind your back.

Me: Why?

Officer #1: Christopher Brown, you are under arrest for assault, criminal trespassing, and disturbing the peace.

Me: Nah, you making a mistake! I didn't do none of that!!!

Officer #2: You can plead this out in court.

I don't know what's going on with these charges being brought upon me, but what I do know is that I didn't do it. A lot of people say it, but it's the truth in my case! I just really want to be with Sabti and make sure she's okay.
