“Come on bruh , let’s get up out of here. I ain’t trying to get caught. You know I’m on parole.”
     
                “Get caught by who? It ain’t like she gonna call the damn police. Go get that jewelry box out the bedroom that I saw,” the neighbor said. He licked his lips as he ran his eyes over Meesie’s thin curves. She really wasn’t his type, but the fact that she was standing there holding her own turned him on.
     
                “Please just leave. I don’t want any problems. Please I’m begging you!” Meesie pleaded with them almost coming to tears. She was undoubtedly scared and just wanted them to leave. She now wish that she had went with her first plan which was to try and rob a Walgreens for Jawan’s medicine. The only reason why she didn’t do that was because the pharmacy was all the way at the back of the store and figured by time she got in, got what she needed, and tried to get out, the police would be waiting for her outside. She now regretted that decision.
     
                “Bruh, let’s go! We got what we need, now let’s go!” the second guy said, and hit his partner on the arm.
     
                The neighbor dived for Meesie and began fighting with her over the knife. He wasn’t about to let Meesie’s little ass run him out of there with a kitchen knife when there was more stuff in the house that he wanted to get. The two of them scrambled over the knife for what seemed like an eternity.
     
    “ Aahhh !” Meesie gasped and her eyes shot open in horror. Her mouth dropped and she looked over at the neighbor’s partner who stood by frantically watching. He was kicking himself for even coming up in here knowing that any fuck up could send him back upstate for an automatic ten years.
     
    “ Wha — Wh —“ the second guy brought his hands to his head when his partner fell to the floor. His partner’s face was contorted and tight with pain and the knife was stuck in his chest. He dropped down to the floor next to him to survey the damages. “Oh shit! You stabbed him!”
     
    “I didn’t mean to—he came at me! I didn’t have a choice!” Meesie explained. She slowly tipped her way towards the exit and when she had a clear pathway, she took off running toward the front door.
     
    “Hey, come back here! Help me with him!” the second guy yelled out to Meesie , but it was too late. She had grabbed Jawan’s clothes and medication for the floor where she dropped them and rushed out of the door. Her shoes pounded against the pavement as she ran down the block to where she’d parked Nay-Nay’s car.
     
    “ Meesie !”
     
    Meesie damn near jumped out of her skin as her hands flew up in the air. Her heart was racing so fast and so hard. She eyed Jawan strangely and wondered why the hell he was jumping from behind Nay-Nay’s car.
     
    “ Jawan , what the hell are you doing hiding behind Nay-Nay’s car? How long you been out here?” she asked. She reached down to pick up Jawan’s things that she had once again dropped.
     
    “I just walked up. Hell I been looking for your ass, girl. Why the hell would you leave me at Nay-Nay’s house passed the hell out like that? You know I don’t like that damn girl!” Jawan fussed. It took him a minute to figure out where Meesie would have gone, but he knew his baby girl.
     
    “You might not like her, but if it wasn’t for her then I wouldn’t have been able to get this. Here! Take it now!” Meesie said, and handed Jawan his medication. “I can’t believe you were out here hiding when I was in there fighting for my life. Why didn’t you come in there and check on me?”
     
    “Fighting for your life?” Jawan stopped in the middle of taking his medication and looked Meesie over. For the first time he noticed the blood on her hands and the blood that transferred onto the medicine bottle. He instantly felt sick to his stomach and the bottle dropped to the ground with all the
