said to him as we got out the car there wasn’t very many people around so I walked up to him and put my arm around him and walked him into the alley behind where he stayed “So u think you bouta cum up in ma crib and rob a nigga blood?” I questioned him and of course his response was “naw nigga I don’t know wut u talkin bout” “don’t lie ta me nigga I caught yo ass on tape where my shit at?” “I aint got it bro u need ta chill the fuck out” “I need ta what? You got me fucked up nigga” from behind me Derrick took the first shot BANG and hit him in the leg “now nigga u ready ta talk” “I’m, I’m sorry I just needed some money for my fam bro please don’t kill me I’ll get yo shit back” “it’s too late now nigga” I said as I pulled the trigger on my .45 BANG I hit him right in the chest he immediately fell to the ground and was dead. We took off running and we peeled out of the neighborhood before we headed back to my house we stopped by the park got out and went up to the lake and threw the guns in there after that we went into the bathroom changed our clothes and set them on fire in a fire pit they had at the park. There was nothing that could be traced back to us not to mention cops around here sucked if they saw a black man dead especially in that neighborhood they just kinda left it at that they never really looked into any gang related shootings out here. After we left the park I dropped Derrick back off at home then headed home myself. The whole way back I felt so nervous not because I jus killed someone that wasn’t shit to me it was because I was going to propose to my girl I hoped she would say yes I’m not much of a romantic so I figured I would jus ask her in the privacy of our home instead of doing the whole romantic dinner and stuff. After I got home me and liyah had sex for a while I must say it was the best sex we ever had. After we finished I looked at her and told her I loved her then scooted off the bed grabbed her hand and asked her to my surprise she was really excited about which made me feel good inside.

***Aaliyah’s POV***
The next morning came and I popped up outta bed and ran to the spare room to see if mya was still sleeping but she wasn’t even in there so next I ran downstairs and there she was eating a big bowl of cereal. “Guess wut sis guess wut” I said feeling like I had 5 energy drinks “wut sis wuts goin on” “I stuck my hand out so she could see the ring “he proposed to me last night” she sat down her cereal and grabbed my hand to look at the ring closer “congratulations sis he finally did it and this ring is gorgeous” “I know I can’t wait to tell mom and dad.” Ever since I told them we were moving in together they seemed to come around and now they actually like Darrel. “I bet they will be so happy for you.” While Mya finshed her cereal I called my parents and told them and they were actually very happy for me which kinda took me by surprise.
A couple days later we decided to throw a party to celebrate our engagement. All kinds of people ended up showing up there were at least 50+ people in our house. We danced, drank, and smoked having a blast. “Liyah I gotta make a run to drop some stuff off then I gotta go get some more beer I won’t be gone to long though” “ok b be careful and hurry back.” Of course derrick went with him he’s usually always around him he’s like his little side kick. I didn’t really feel all that comfortable with them leaving me there cause most of the people there where his boys from the block I had a couple of friends there but most of them were too busy trying to get at the dudes there so while he was gone I went up into my room to freshen up a little bit cuz it was hot as hell downstairs from all the body heat and I also just wanted to clear my head a little bit all of a sudden I hear knock, knock, knock so I go over and open the door. A guy wearing a blue bandana around his face came busting through the door almost knocking me off my feet “um excuse you who do you think you are bustin up in here like that?” I said very rudely “I’m your worst nightmare bitch” his deep voice spat out as he shut the door and locked it behind him “ what the fuck do u want from me” he punched me in the face then slammed me down on the bed I was trying to kick him off of me and hit him so I could at least get to my cell phone but the more I tried to get free the tighter his grip got he then started ripping off my clothes starting with my shirt I began to scream “HELP, HELP ME, HELP” he then smashed his hand down over my mouth and then he wrapped my shirt around my face so I couldn’t see anything he noticed the handcuffs sitting next to my bed that me and Darrel use when we have sex and slapped them on me cuffing me to the bed once he did that he grabbed one of Darrel’s red rags and wrapped it as tight as he could around my mouth. After ripping my bra, skirt, and panties off he roughly entered me and raped me with long hard strokes it hurt so bad he was going way too deep inside me to where I could feel it in my stomach and I knew he wasn’t wearing a condom because I could feel the bare skin inside me. The whole time he was raping me all I could do was cry and wish it was over. About 15 mins went by but seemed like hours he finally pulled himself out of me and said “tell yo nigga he dun fucked wit da wrong set” and took off out of the room. I tried so hard to wiggle and squirm my way out of the cuffs but it just wasn’t working I hoped that someone would find me soon as I laid there butt naked bleeding out of my vagina.
Darrel returned home after getting the beers and making his run he asked one of his boys Mike “ay bro u seen Liyah” “naw bro last time I seen her was before u left” Darrel put the beer in the fridge and proceeded upstairs to our bedroom. As soon as he hit the corner to enter the bedroom his heart just stopped “OH MY GOD LIYAH” he screamed as he rushed to my side “wut happened baby who did this to you oh my god” he started as he took the handcuffs, shirt, and bandana off of me. When he pulled the shirt off my face he seen a big ass bruise on my face from where the guy had punched me “BABY YOUR FACE” he stated as he brushed his fingers very gently across the bruise and I kinda flinched because it hurt really bad. “I’m so glad to see you don’t ever leave me again” I said sobbing “who did this to you and how come nobody did anything?” “I don’t know baby nobody knew and it was sum guy with a blue rag on his face he said ta tell you, you fucked with the wrong set” I explained to him as I cried even more. He grabbed my robe and wrapped it around me and held me repeating “every things ok now I’ve got u” for a couple of minutes then he asked me if I needed to go to the hospital and I declined I didn’t want anybody to know what had happened to me that night I really didn’t even want my sister to know. Darrel helped me into the bathroom so I could clean myself off and then rest but knowing I just got raped without protection it was really hard for me to rest. After he made sure I was ok he proceeded downstairs god only knows what was running through his head and what was about to happen next. “WHO THE FUCK WAS IN MY ROOM I WANNA KNOW NOW” he screamed very hostile. Derrick came up to him and asked him what happened “sum nigga raped my gurl and I’ll be damned if they get away wit it she said it was sum nigga wearing a blue rag on his face sayin I fucked wit the wrong set, dat dumbass nigga must not know what set he fucked wit it’s on now fuck that” “damn nigga she ok? We gon get dem niggas tonight” he said having his boys back. “EVERYONE GET OUT NOW RIGHT FUCKING NOW” he howled at the crowd. After everyone left him and Derrick went in the basement to check the cameras, he seen a tall skinny light skinned dude sneak into the back door and sneak upstairs he watched up until the point he started taking my clothes off. He had a tear fall down his face before he jumped out his seat “I know that nigga and he just fucked up big time” he went to a safe he had down there and pulled out a couple guns for him and Derrick “you ready bro?” “always” Derrick responded the two of them locked and loaded headed out to seek revenge after taking Aaliyah to the CVS so she could get one of them day after pills just in case then over to Amaya’s house where he knew she would be safe.


***Darrel’s POV***
When I got home from making a deal and going to the liquor store I went in and put the beer away and made rounds around the party to say wuts up and find Aaliyah to let her know I was back but I couldn’t see here anywhere downstairs so I asked Mike if he knew where she was “Naw last I seen her was before u lef” so I went upstairs to see if I could find her up there I walked down the hallway completely unprepared for what I was about to see. Once I hit the corner of the door my heart suddenly dropped I ran into the room to see Aaliyah cuffed to the bed butt naked and bleeding i started to uncuff her take the bandana and shirt off her face and noticed a big bruise on her face “liyah your face” I said as I gently brushed my fingers across it, she slightly jumped from the pain. I wrapped her robe around her body and held her telling her everything was gonna be okay because I was there now. After a couple minutes she told me somebody with a blue bandana over his face told her to tell me I fucked with the wrong set. After she told me that I helped her into the bathtub so she could wash herself off and rest. I ran down the stairs screaming “WHO THE FUCK WAS IN MY ROOM I WANNA KNOW NOW,” Derrick came up to me asking wut
