Courtney's point of view
It was exactly only a 1 hour and 30 minutes ago I was happy and had friends who enjoyed me, right now I was having a meltdown inside a dark room. What just happened kept replaying in my head, like a annoying catchy song.
I was enjoying my walk to the Princepal's office to see how a victum was doing. Her name was Maria and was a rape victum by her uncle who molested her for 10 years. She and her little sister finally told he police a few months back but then suddenly refused to coroperate. But when my brother came in the girl started singing like a bird when she heard about my case. I never really told her the story but she enjoys talking to me about boys and school.
When I went into the Office I saw my brother Jordan tapping his foot impatiently. Before I could make a sound he scooped me up and ran out the he threw me in the passenger seat, and ran to the driver side turning on the siren, speeding down the road.
"J-T what the hell!" I said half frightened.
"Maria is thinking of commiting suicide on herself and her sister. She only wants to talk to you and you only. I need youto be strong and brave O-k. You have to get her to give up the gun to you." He said uneasily.
"Oh no, It's okay Jordan I'll be okay." I said sadly.
"I don't want to put you in this situation but I don't want 2 people to die on my conscience." Jordan steered quickly.
"It'll be okay, I watch almost all seasons of Law & Order. Noone will die" I said giving him a comforting smile.
"I know, but I care to much for you" He gave me a quick glance.
"I know, but sometimes you gotta let the bird fly out the super high-tech home" I said and we both giggled. We ended up in front of a row house with a red bricks, a nice lawn guarded by a grey gate. The house was gaurded with 3 police cars and 10 cops. When I got out the car I saw bright light flashes at the corner of my eye's. I turned to see a crowd of news crew from channel 6,9, and 23.
"Here is the girl the victum is asking to see. Can this girl save our Victum or end up getting killed in the process." A news anchor women said. I felt a tinge of nervousness creep up on me but I remembered I had to be strong. J-T led me over to his partner Detective Carmen. She was about J-t's age with honey brown hair and fair skin. She smiled at me.
"Hey Courtney, nice to see you again. Right now we need you very badly, Can you do that?" she crouch down on her knee and grabbed my elbows.
"Yes, J-t told me about it and I'm ready." I nodded.
"Okay, Here's a walkie talkie, and a vest you need to wear" She slipped me in a bullet proof vest and handed me a walkie talkie. She explained the if Maria gives me the gun tell her on the walkie talkie before I did anything else. If the phone rang I had to answer it, and if things go wrong wave my hand out the window or tell her over the talkie. I nodded and took a deep breath before I walked on the porch and knocked on the door.
'It's Courtney or Dani as you you can call me" I said
"Are you alone?" The voice asked.
"Yes, can I come in, please?"I said uneasily.
"Come in and lock the door behind you" I opened the door and locked it behind me like I was told. I directly went into the living room to see Maria sitting on a couch holding a gun to her little sister's head who sat next to her. Maria's hair was pulled into a ponytail she wore a small grey sweater and black yoga pants and her intense look gazed upon me. The little girl had her hair in a messy bun and wore a small uggs, black tights, and a plain red shirt. She looked absolutely terrifed. I sat across from them on a plush brown couch.
"So I said, wanna watch T.V, listen to some music" I said calmly leanning back on the couch
"No"Maria snarled at me."I want to hear your tragic story, people say they feel sorry for you and I want to know why." She pressed the gun closer to her sister, Icould see beads of sweat dropping from the little girls face.
"Oh you want a story, well let the story time begin" I said nervously
"I was so much happier when I was little. But just like that everything changed for the worst. My mother was a slut, I mean she loved us alot, but she was a stripper. When she met my dad, they instantly feel in love. That's when J-Twas born, he was very similar to my father with the same dark brown eyes and same built. My older sister Winter was born from another man at a strip club who wanted nothing to do with her. But my father didn't care, he loved her has the same Brown eyes as J-T and my father but shared most of my mother's womanly features. Then I was born, the first with the same voliet eyes as my mother. Then my little sister was born with the same eyes but darker and her fater was an asian man. My mother soon quit her job to take care of us. My father loved all of us we use to eat at resturants, laugh, lick ice-cream, and have family game night. But things got strange with my dad he got tired, he worked long hours on his job as a health insurance worker. Then when I turned 9 I asked him if he wanted to play ball, He yelled "No, I'm working". I never heard my fater yell not even when J-t broke my fathers keyboard. I left and returned a hour later asking the same question, he slapped me. When I feel to the floor a new sense of fear washed over me. When he realized what he did he cuddled me and cried. I never thought a man could cry or cry as much as he did. He sat there cuddling me for 2 hours,He took me to bed and after that things seemed strange btween us. He would laugh and joke with me but there was a new look on his eye's and they were sadness. My father decided he wanted to go into war, so He signed up for the military. When he returned he was a new hero in our eyes. I was 10 when he hit me when I accidentally hit my sister with a bat. He told me to be careful. My father's eyes went back to sadness when he hit my cheek."What have I done?" he would cry and stroke my hair. He got up and walked out the door and he never returned. I would sit and wait every night waiting for him. I couldn't even look at my brother for a month because I would breakdown crying. My mother wouldn't even look at me for a month. She told me "Learn to take a punch, you little brat" She hit me and slapped me so hard, but the pain she gave me never hurt as bad when my father left "I sniffed"Then my best friend raped me, you already heard the always said sorry and wrote me letter but I wasn't the same. Thats when me and my siblings moved to Flordia so Winter could finish getting her doctors degree and keep me safe. Then we came her met some new friends tying to get my life together. I always asked "Why?" but I never got an answer. I realized my father left to protect me form himself. And my mother beat me because she believed it was my fault he left. I was raped because I was defenseless. I lost all innocence in 2 years, 2 fucking years."
I felt hot tears fall fast from my face. I tugged my sleeves over my hand and tried to wipe them, but I gave up trying to stop and wipe them so I let them fall hard. Maria was crying, I could hear it in her voice when she said "Didn't you want to kill your self?" she said so weakly.
"Yes, but then I though about how it would make my surroundings. T-J would probably cry, Winter would get depressed, and Crystal would probably kill herself. I didn't want that to happen so I came here to get consuling. Philly did me wrong, Flordia shifted me, and Woodcrest changed me." slowly my tears stoped.
"I don't want my mother to get depressed or my grandmama to feel bad for us. Here" she handed me the gun and hugged me and we cried loudly the little girl clung to my leg.
"Let's leave" I gave my walkie talkie and handed it to shoke and reluctantly took it
" I'm ready to come out" she grabbed me and her sister by the arm. Things were all blurry from my tears, she slowly opened the door. I could see flashes in the corner of my eyes but I didn't care. Police came in and put Maria and her sister in a police car. She gave me one last glance before the heading of. I bursted into more tears. Both my brother and Detective Carmen congragulated me and tried comforting me, but I just couldn't stop crying. I told them I wanted to go home and be left alone instead I was taken here, a police unit investigation room. When J-t poked his head in I through my chair because I was so fustrated with myself.
'Why can't I be normal' I thought about Huey's words.
'Yeah, but not everyones perfect' I began to calm down.
Huey's P.O.V
I felt so bad, this situation was even worse than Uncle Ruckus's sad story. But no one deserves to have such a bad life like this.
"Damn, now I just feel bad for the nigga's" Riley lowered the phone and sat back.
"Killing herself, wow I never woulda thought." Cindy said softly.
"I never knew a parent had much control over them or a best friend could do that" Jazmine said sadly, and looked up at me but I was a still as a statue. 3 minutes of silence later Crystal comes in, her head was bowed down so you couldn't see he eyes. The were shadowed off by her bangs.
"Oh my god, Crystal we didn't know. I'm so sorry" Cesar said.
"Could you believe she was depressed for 8 months. She wouldn't eat, sleep, let alone talk. You know how that made us all feel."Crystal mumbled and looked up softly. Her eyes were puffy and red, she grabbed her phone and bag, and headed out the door. I heard Jazmine sniffle alot then clasp her arms around my neck. Riley got up and got his bag. He and Cindy run off to catch up with her. Cesar just sighed and looked down. I never seen anyone so down. The bell rang and we each sadly grabbed our bookbags. On the desk was he rnotebook, I took it with me and looked at every page. Feeling a deep connection with every picture she drew.
At the End of the Day
We all grouped together to walk home except for Cindy, she got a ride from her mother. We all hopped on the bus and sat quietly, the a phone sang 'Diamonds' by Rihanna.
"Hello? Dani?" Crystal said with a hopeful smile."What do you mean, I'm never going anywhere with J-t again"she said.
"Speaker!" Crystal put her phone on speaker. Static came from the phone.
'Need you to do me a favor?" Courtney's voice said uneasy
"I n-need you t-to tell m-m-me where D-daddy's box is?" she stammered.
"No, I know what your gonna do, your gonna sit there and cry about it, thats why we hid it.' Crystal said with anger in her tone.
"Chrissy, Please?" She said weakly.
"No, I'm going over there and I'm bringing some people" Crystal said sternly.
"Who?" Courtney said.
"Suprise" Crystal hang up. " You guys wanna come to our house, We gotta lot to do" Crystal looked around at us.
"Yes I wanna hug her so bad" Jazmine said sweetly.
"I wanna see her" Cesar said. I forgot to tell you that Cesar only takes the bus to from school, in the morning he gets a ride for early purposes.
"Yeah, O-k" Riley said. Everyone stared at me.
"Yeah, I'll go" I soften my expression into a sensitive stare. 3 stops later we arrived at a house so much similar to ors but had 3 floors and light blue paint covered the house. All 5 of us hopped off the bus and followed Crystal to the door. She turned the knob and jerked the door open.
"Courtney?" Crystal yelled. No response. We turned down a large doorway into what I believed was the Living room. 3 red plush couches stood around a plasma screen T.V. I saw a gray cloth stand out from it. I walked closer and aroud the couch. There Courtney was in a large Eagles jacket that looked 2 sizes to big. She still had on jeans but she took off her blue Timbs revealing pink socks. She was laying down and breathing softly, I guess she was resting. Her hair was pulled into a ponytail and her face shined so bright with the light from outside shining on it. Before anyone knew Crystal kicked Courtney off the couch.
"ouch" a muffle came fromthe carpet.
'You got that from Dad's box didn't you" Crystal said accusingly.
"No, I took it out the box when we moved" she muffled.
"Oh alright" Crystal said softly."Aren't you gonna get up?" I asked
"Froyo, is that you?" She rolled over and looked directly at me.
"Froyo?" Cesar said.
"Yeah suits a nigga well" She slowly got up and looked around.
"You brought the whole gang, Chrissy we might as well have a party with all the people you bring home" She walked past us. But then Jazmine gave her a bear hug, this suprise Courtney because they both fell on their rear ends.
"What in the name of Criminals-" Then Crystal jumped on them. Riley Jumped, then Cesar. Everyone was laughing and smiling.
"Get off me, you guys are heavy" Courtney laughed and managed to squeeze out the pile. She had to have been the base because everyone fell into seperate piles.
"Weirdo's" she muttered and left out the doorway.
"Come, ...hahahaha... Let us love you" Everyone bursted out laughing at Cesar said. I gave a slight smirk of satisfaction. I walked over them and followed her remembering her note book.
"Hey Froyo" she said staring at me from a island of counters.
"Whyare you calling me frozen yougurt?" I rasied my eyebrow.
" Because you friend Cesar told me that you were a vegetarian, and you have and afro. Froyo just somehow popped into my mind. Guess I was hungry, then It just stuck" She shrugged and went into the cabinets. I rolled my eyes.
" You left your notebook in Mr. Rosa's class." I placed it on the counter.
"I did, didn't I" She jumped trying to reach for something, but missed. I sighed and walked up next to her. I was about an inch or so taller than than her. I tried jumping but I missed.
"Get on you knee's" She said.
"What/" I felt uncomfortable with what she said.
"No pervert,let me get on you back" she laughed.
"Wasn't thinking like that, jeez." I did as I was told and she got on my back. I wrapped my arm around her thighs and lifted my feet. She was a little heavier than Jazmine but still light on her case.
"Move foreward some" she commanded. I moved closer. I heard the ruffling and rattling of boxes.
"Damn nigga, dis' ain't Rugrats. Since when do we get on peoples back to reach food. Oh no, Unless... you letting her hit. Awe man,... Chrissy, Cesar, Jazmine. Courtney ridin' on Huey back. I think he wanna bag" Riley laughed and took a picture. All 3 came in and bursted out laughing. Courtney jumped off my back and sucked her teeth.
"You guys are so inappropite" she crossed he arms and walk out the door. I glared at them all, nodding my head in disapproval. Then left back into the Living room and sat next to Courtney.
"Want some?" she wagged a Hersehy Bar in my face. I reluctantly took it.
"I wanna ask you a question." She said looking at me innocently.
"Let me ask one first?" I said " You had been through so much yet you are always smiling, Why?" I asked.
"Because, I like to be Optomistic like Jazmine. I try and focus on the good because It doesn't feel good to be mad or sad all the time' She opened her bar, tearing it slowly.
"Okay my question!" she said brightly. I opened my bar with a few simple tears.
"Did you expression just freeze like that or were you just born mad all the time?' She laughed alot but never took her eyes off me.
"Naturally, I guess. And I don't hate everything." I crumpled up my wrapper.
"I know, just making fun" She turned around and yelled." You niggas done laughing."
" Yeah, but it sure was hilarious." Cesar yelled back. We both sighed with a grunt.
