Odell and Kenya have been best friends throughout college. As graduation approaches and both their lives are set to change, they evaluate whether they should be more than friends.
I turned around in my sleep, hoping to awake to my baby's face. I opened my eyes, no one was there. Just a pillow and messy covers.
I sat up, calling out to bathroom.
"O."
I didn't get an answer. My heart started beating fast. Hoping he didn't leave. We seemed to have gotten over it last night.
I hopped out the bed and went into the bathroom. He wasn't there.
My only sigh of relief was that his luggage was still there and His phone on the night stand by the bed.
Maybe he's down stairs. I went downstairs. The kitchen was empty. Dining room. Living room. I looked out back by the pool, nothing.
I raced back up to Brandon's room and opened the door.
"Bitch." He said annoyed. He had things strategically placed on the bed and was using his selfie stick to take a picture.

"You're interrupting me stunting on these hoes. The door was closed for a reason. Not for your ass to bust through it. What do you want?" He said annoyed I messed up his photo.
"I can't find O."
"What do you mean you can't find O? Isn't he in your room?"
"No. That's what I'm saying. I looked everywhere." I sat on his bed.
"Don't mess up my shit for my royal shoot."
"I don't care about your shoot." I threw a magazine he had on the bed off. "I care about where my baby is."
"Is his luggage still in there?"
"Yes."
"His phone?"
"Yes."
"Then only one thing happened." Brandon said.
"What?"
"Billy with the blue eyes kidnapped And killed him."
I stale faced him.
"That is so sad. O was such a good man. First we got to worry about the pigs killing us for selling CDs and pulling out IDs. Now we got to worry about Billy with the blue eyes taking us out of our beds at night. It's Jim Crow all over."
"Can you not joke about those things please." I looked at him.
"Kenya calm down. I was just trying to lighten the mood. We got to do something, watching these tragic videos all day."
"I know." I sighed. "It makes me not want to go back to the states. Just stay here. Me, you and O. So I can protect him and myself. And you."
"Girl me too. That's why I'm trying to devise a plan to make Dr. Thompson fall in love with me, so we can have a Tyrone with the brown eyes to go with her Billy with the blue ones."
