[Normani - 12:43 a.m.]
Depends, who is this?

[Camila - 12:43 a.m.]
lauren's friend camila

[Normani  - 12:43 a.m.]
Oh hey, what's up?

[Normani - 12:43 a.m.]
Wait how'd you get my number?

[Normani - 12:44 a.m.]
Is Lauren okay?

[Normani - 12:44 a.m.]
Did she tell you anything?

[Normani - 12:44 a.m.]
Because she's been keeping something from me for months now and I'm so scared.

[Normani - 12:45 a.m.]
She wanted me to call Dinah and tell her to call you and tell you she needs you because it's an emergency so that you would cancel on her.

[Normani - 12:45 a.m.]
But I refused because I knew something was up.

[Camila - 12:46 a.m.]
okay take a breath please

[Normani - 12:46 a.m.]
What did you find out?

[Camila - 12:47 a.m.]
do you know anyone by the name of Luis Santos?

[Normani - 12:48 a.m.]
Lauren and I went to high school with him. He was kind of like obsessed with her. Why?

[Normani - 12:48 a.m.]
Oh shit.

[Normani - 12:49 a.m.]
Please don't tell me what I think you're gonna tell me.

[Camila - 12:50 a.m.]
okay i don't know much but when i got here there was a black BMW in the driveway and i was like that isnt lauren's she has motor cycle

[Camila - 12:50 a.m.]
so i attempted to brush it off and walked to her door and knocked. she didnt answer so i knocked again and called her name

[Camila - 12:51 a.m.]
still no response so i tried to open the door and it was unlocked. of course i went in and set all the shit i brought on the table

[Camila - 12:51 a.m.]
still no sign of lauren so i started calling her name. and then i heard a scream from upstairs and her saying get off of me asshole

[Camila - 12:52 a.m.]
so of course i ran upstairs and i found lauren's room and i opened the door and this luis kid was on top of her

[Camila - 12:52 a.m.]
lauren was in her bra and underwear and she was crying

[Camila - 12:52 a.m.]
obviously the first thing i did is rip luis off of her and throw him on the ground

[Camila - 12:53 a.m.]
and then i hit him a little bit and threatened him and kicked him out

[Camila - 12:53 a.m.]
he shouldn't bother her again

[Normani - 12:55 a.m.]
Holy shit.

[Normani - 12:55 a.m.]
How long has this been going on?

[Normani - 12:55 a.m.]
Is she okay?

[Normani - 12:55 a.m.]
We've gotta report him to the police.

[Camila - 12:56 a.m.]
she's sleeping in my arms right now. as i said i don't know much, she didn't tell me anything. i just held her and she cried her eyes out. i told her i wouldn't push her to tell me anything and that she can tell me whenever she's ready

[Camila - 12:56 a.m.]
i told her we need to tell the police but she refused. she said i better not say a word

[Camila - 12:57 a.m.]
obviously im not gonna listen. even though i threatened him and he probably isnt gonna bother her anymore, we still need to file a report

[Normani - 12:58 a.m.]
Yes we do. And we will. We'll figure it out tomorrow.

[Camila - 12:58 a.m.]
okay

[Normani - 12:59 a.m.]
Camila?

[Camila - 12:59 a.m.]
yes

[Normani - 12:59 a.m.]
Thank you for taking care of her. Text me in the morning and let me know how she is

[Camila - 1:00 a.m.]
of course anything for lauren and i will don't worry go sleep

[Normani - 1:00 a.m.]
Okay goodnight

[Camila - 1:01 a.m.]
