Chapter 7 Natasha
"That is all Miss Drayton, you are free to go. Here is my card, please reach out to me if you remember anything else. We will be in touch." Says detective Hall. I am staring blankly at the card. I cannot believe this is happening. Tears are still running down my face as I try to accept the fact that Jamal is dead. I have been at this police station for 6 hours and I keep telling them the same thing. Brian shot Jamal. There was no warning. There was no threat. He just walked in and shot him in the back. They kept asking me the same questions over and over like I am lying or something. I know what happened, I was there. I saw it all. Why won't they believe me? I had never seen Brian like that. He had a look on his face of pure evil. He killed Jamal for no reason and that is what I have been telling these dumb ass detectives for the last 6 hours. I pick up my purse and head towards the door. "Tasha!" I hear someone call my name. It's Nate. He walks up to me and hugs me. "Are you ok?" he asks. "No I am not. I keep telling these pigs that Brian killed Jamal in cold blood but for some reason they do not believe what I am saying" I say with an attitude. "Tasha it is just hard to believe Brian would do something like that. Are you sure? "I jerk my arm from Nate. "Yes I am sure! Oh but let me guess. Ain't no way this upstanding, honest white guy would just shoot this nigger huh?" I say smugly to Nate. "I am not saying that. I am just wanting to make sure you are not misinterpreting anything. That's all. "What the fuck ever. Look I am going home." With that, I turn and storm out of the police station.
