"If I don't make it back before the sun,

All you have to do is run

Just promise me you'll run"


Li hid out for another two weeks before she decided that she needed to tell Andre the truth about why hasn't been returning his calls or pages. We all knew this was going to be hard for her because he has some type of strong hold on her. But now that she has the baby she can't be in that type of environment anymore. Well scratch that we aren't going to let her be in that type of environment anymore.  Today she's finally going to tell him about the baby and break it off with him. 


Li are sure you don't want me to go with you? I am sure Jay I don't need you or Ti getting into it with him. You can't go by yourself it's too dangerous for you. That nigga is crazy and there is no telling what he will do when he finds out you're pregnant. She thought for a minute Okay fine Jay I'll take Ro with me. Thank you that's all we are asking. I said looking at her and pecking her on the lips. If anything happened to you Li we would go crazy so promise me you will be safe. I will Jay don't worry okay.


Hey Ro let me talk to you real quick Ti said. They walked out the room and upstairs. What's up Ti? Ti looked out the door and then closed it and locked it. She went to the closet pulled out the box at the top of the closet. Ro you ever used a gun before? She said pulling the gun out of the box. Hell no Ti, why the hell do you have a gun? For protection duh, she said chuckling. Seriously tho Ro, if you are gonna go with her I need you to take some back up protection because Andre is crazy and when it comes to Li he's even crazier. Ti you want me to shoot him? No I want you to protect Li, yourself, and that baby she's carrying. Only use it if you see he's getting out of hand. I don't know if I can do this. Ro said shaking her head. Ti sat the gun back in the box and went over to her. Listen Ro, you in this relationship now that means you have a responsibility in this as well. We look out for one another. Just like Jay went with you to break it off with Dallas, you should be able to go with Li and help her as well. I understand, so how do I use it she said looking back at the box. Good girl, just turn off the safety before you shoot. This means you need to be paying close attention to what's going on so you can have enough time to do it. I got it, but what happens if I have to shoot him? Just call me and Jay and we'll take care of the rest. Ti pulled Ro into a hug, * I know she ain't a hugger but for this moment she is* Ro you and Li come back safe okay? I got it Ti, I got her back. Good then she kissed Ro on the neck, handed her the gun so she could tuck it into the back of her jeans, unlocked the door and they exited the bedroom.


I looked at T when they came back in the living room. She winked at me and went over to Li. I knew exactly what she did and honestly I was going to do the same thing if Li would let me go with her. This would be Ro's ultimate test if she could really handle this relationship. Okay we are going Li said heading towards the door with Ro. I mouthed to Ro "take care of her" and she mouthed back "I will" and with that they were gone. Ti and I just looked at each other. I hope she can handle this I said. She can don't worry I gave her the talk. That still doesn't mean I am not going to worry about her. I know come on Jay we can't over stress on this lets go do something she knows to page us if things pop off. Alright Ti lets go.


***3 hours later***


We just got home and Li and Ro still aren't here, it's been like 3 hours since they left to go talk to Andre.  You think something happened? I said looking over at Ti. I don't know check and see if they paged you.  Just as I was doing that the house phone started ringing. I'll get it I said going to get the phone. Hello! Jay I need your help like right now. Ro said out of breath and panicking. What you mean Ro? That bastard was beating on her and I shot him. I need you to come right now. Okay Ro calm down me and Ti will be there in a minute. Where is she? In the car I didn't want to use his house phone so I got her out of there and stopped at the gas station to call you. That's good Ro I said trying to calm her down. You just bring her back to the house right now Ti and I will take care of the rest okay. Yeah Jay, I got it we are on the way. I hung up the phone and turned to see Ti staring at me. They are on their way back, go change we gotta take care of some stuff. She knew what I meant by that and quickly ran up the stairs. I made a call to my brother I knew him and his boys could handle this with us.
