"Everybody you fight,
is not your enemy,
And everybody that helps you,
is not your friend."
Khristian DeJesus
I closed my locker and headed down to detention. I didn't fight anyone this time, I just exchanged a few choice words with my teacher Mr.Trenchbolt. He's always looking at me like I'm some kind of prey or something. It disgust me and he needs to be in jail with his pedophile ass.
I wasn't talking to Jayonna because of what happened last night. I'm so mad at her for screaming, I pulled her ass back for a reason and she just had to go be nosy. Now they seen our faces, we could be killed at any given moment. Yeah Tyrek used to baby sit me but he probably doesn't even remember. I haven't seen him or his father after my fathers death.
It took me a while but last night I finally figured out who those men were. Ace, Ghost, and Spazz the Kings of New Orleans. They run everything in this city. I hear people talking about The Big 3 all the time, people act like there god or something. I'm not afraid of them or anybody, I'm not afraid of nobody but god himself. Dying for me would just be my one way ticket to my father.
I walked into detention and sat in my usual seat in the back of the room by the window. I looked around and it's just the same people whose always in here, nobody knew. The only person we're missing is Jayonna and to my surprise she didn't get in any trouble today.
30 minutes into detention and Mr.Hastings the teacher whose supposed to be watching us, had stepped out to make a quick call. Some people started talking to one another and some pulled out there phones.
I turned to the window and tapped it 3 times. Jayonna popped up with a smile and I flashed her a fake one, she knows I'm upset with her ass and she's been apologizing all day but I been ignoring her. I opened the window and she helped me from the outside.
Once the window was open to where I could fit out of it, she stepped back and I hopped out the window. I quickly closed it back with her help and then we walked out from the side of the school building.
This isn't knew for us, which ever one of us was in detention the other would help escape, unless were both in detention. Detention is always held on the first floor in that same classroom ever since our freshman year.
We walked home in silence it was comfortable for me but I know its killing her. I stopped being mad at her about 5 minutes ago, I could never stay made at her. Plus I was being childish, other girls would have probably screamed too.
"Bitch you still mad? You to small to be holding grudges." She said and I scrunched up my face and looked at her rude ass.
See I wasn't mad anymore but she just called me small so no.
"Bitch what does size has to do with me being mad at you? I can hold a grudge if I want. Stupid hoe and I wasn't even mad anymore." I said and playfully rolled my eyes.
She playfully pushed me and then she started talking about how school went. She mostly talked about how some of the boys tried to get her number and she happily told they ass no.
"That girl Henny so damn messy, she was all in my face telling me what everybody be saying about us like sis, if they can't say it to our face...." She trailed off.
"Then we don't give a fuck." We said together and did our little handshake.
We started laughing and doing the Kodak Black dance moving our arms from side to side. I slowly stopped dancing when I seen an all black fancy car parked in front of our foster home.
I stopped and grabbed Jayonna's arm stopping her. Tyrek and one of the boys from last night with the gun tattoo on his face was coming out of our house with Mrs.Care behind them.
"Oh shit." Jayonna said and oh shit is right.
"Oh hey girls." Mrs.Care called to us and both Tyrek and the other boy looked at us.
Jayonna and I both turned around and jetted back the way we came. We ran around the corner and ran onto the side of one of the houses. We approached a really tall gate but we didn't hesitate to take our book bags off and through them over the gate, then we climbed it the gate as fast as we could. I jumped down to the other side and Jayonna climbed down it. As soon as her feet landed on the ground, we picked up our book bags ready to run again but the car that was in front of our foster home pulled up blocking our exit.
I turned around ready to jump back over the fence but another black car identical to the one that was in front of our house was right there.
I looked at Jayonna and she was starting to cry.
"Hey we split up okay, run for as long as you can, as fast as you can. Meet up at our spot, on the east." I told her just as the passenger door opened to the car that blocked our exit we first had.
"Bet bitch run." She said and hauled ass to the right running behind the houses.
I turned to the left and hauled ass running behind houses just like Jayonna but in a different direction. I took my book bag off while I was running and dropped that bitch. I glanced behind me and seen the boy with the gun tattooed on his face running after me. That motherfucka fast but he ain't faster than me.
I cleared a whole fence and then cleared another after that. I ran from behind the houses out into the open and then across the street onto the side of another house but I knew who lived here. I also knew about there pit bull Rosco that like to bite. Rosco and I were cool because I would buy slim jims and feed them to him.
I ran into the back yard and saw Rosco jump up but he didnt attack me. He just turned his head to the side.
"Get em boy!" I yelled and ran pass Rosco and hopped over another fence, into the back yard of the house behinds Roscos owner house.
Rosco started barking and growling rapidly and I heard the man yelling for Rosco to sit and other shit. I turned around and saw the man slowly backing up going the way we came. The anger was evident all in his face and I smiled. He looked at me and I winked at him before turning and running away.

I've been sitting here waiting for Onna for I don't know how long. All I know is that it was daylight when I got here and now it's dark out. I was sitting underneath the slide where nobody could see me. Jayonna would know where to find me though.
The entire time I've been sitting here, nothing but the worst has been running through my head. I've also been sitting here in pure pain, I twisted my ankle running and it hurts like a bitch. I cried when it first happened but I stopped crying after that. It still hurts and I'm honestly grateful that it does because the pain is keeping me from thinking the worst about Jayonna.
She's my bestfriend, my sister, my other half she's all I have. She's the only person that I ever let in and we promised to always be there for each other. We promised to always ride for each other because dying wasn't an option when it came to us. We swore that we was unbeatable and untouchable even the devil himself couldn't touch it.
I lost myself when my dad died and somehow Jayonna manage to bring part of me back. She managed to break down my walls and I broke down hers, we were both broken and damaged but together we seen nothing but perfection within each other. We understood each other in ways no one else can.
"Khristian." I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard Jayonna call my name.
I climbed from behind the slide and slowly stood up being careful not to put to much pressure on my ankle. I looked up and froze when I seen Jayonna standing there with Tyrek and the other boy beside her.
Thoughts on what might happen next?🤨
How y'all feel about Jayonna?😬
Sorry for any mistakes.
