Too Good To Be True

Chapter 7

   Jasmine lost her house keys so she kept trying to call the house but there's was no answer. We stop by ihop to eat breakfast. Jasmine tried to call again but there was still no answer.

  "Mom still not answering the phone she probably laid up or high somewhere. Jasmine said disgusted.

  "Well lets just go there and see."

I was riding looking at the window something just didn't seem right. We pulled up to moms apartment complex and all walked up there together.

When we open the door there was blood everywhere. We screamed "MOM!" I could see her fingers on the floor leading to her bedroom. We opened her bedroom door and the scene was so terrifying we all run out and called the police.

It seemed so unreal. The yellow tape everything seemed like a movie. I was so hurt I couldn't even cry. I sat on the curve holding Jasmine in my arms rocking back and forth. The detective came up to talk to us.

   "I know You girls are hurt I know this is such a tough time for both of You but we need your help. If You want this person off the street we need You to tell us who would do this to your mother."

  "We don't know all we know is she was on drugs and owed someone some money. We don't know his name or how he looks we just know she owed him and he told her he was gonna hurt her if she didn't pay him back we don't know anything else." I said.

"Ok do you girls any family members that you could stay with?"

"Jasmine gonna come stay with me I have my own place."

"Ok well here's my number if Yu hear anything on the streets or any other helpful information please give me a call." The detective said handed me his card and walking away.

  Why was so much happening to me,to us? "Jas get up baby we gotta go."
I was so weak my knees buckled when I stood up. I helped her up and we both held on tight to each other. Quiet but minds speaking loud as ever.
