FOR ALL THE WRONG REA$ON$___RUSH HOUR

RUSH HOUR


“Damn,” I thought aloud as I was driving up 695 making my way to my grandma’s house to pack my shit. Who the fuck could be after me? Or want me so bad to kidnap me or ‘Tika for that matter? Thinking about it was starting to puzzle me because I’d been with and fucked over so many people that there’s no telling who it was!
“OH SHIT!” I yelled as a black Denali with tinted windows slammed in to the back of my Audi. I was tempted to pull over and give them a piece of my mind until they pulled on the side of me and a gun appeared in the window. Slamming on brakes I put my car in reverse right on 695 only to be greeted by another black Denali with tinted windows behind me. I put the car back into drive only this time the Denali’s had switched positions one was in front of me and the other on the side. What the hell was I going to do?
Shit! Shit! Shit! Here I was stuck on 695 in the middle of rush hour trapped between two trucks full of niggas with guns and the idiot behind me was so busy tailing me trying to record the whole thing that he was preventing me from braking and getting away. Where the hell was the police when you needed them? Had I been speeding down this bitch they would’ve been coming out of corners and cuts tryna get to my black ass! But when I needed them they were nowhere to be found! Fuck how was I gonna get myself out of this? My train of thought was interrupted when the driver of one of the Denali’s rammed the truck into the side of my car causing my car to jerk towards the shoulder of the highway. There was no means of escape while one Denali was ramming me the other one was stopping me from speeding off. And backing up was not an option unless I backed into the stupid fuck behind me who really deserved it right now. Before I knew it that damn Denali hit my poor Audi two more times and last I remember was I flipped over and was in a ditch.
“Yo pull this bitch over so I can shoot her ass for assurance!
“Naw dog did you see how many times she flipped. That bitch done for plus I hear sirens!”

FOUR HOURS LATER
“Where am I?” I asked half knowing due to her uniform but still check for reassurance.
“You’re at University of Maryland Hospital. Apparently you were involved in a very bad car accident. You’re lucky to have survived. Your car flipped at least five times before landing.
“Oh,” I starred at the nurse as I remember everything that had happened to me earlier that day. Then it hit me, “where are my belongings? I need to call my sister!”
“Over there,” she pointed as she retrieved my belongings and handed me my cell phone.
“Thanks now can I have some privacy?” don’t get me wrong I was grateful for her help but she seemed like a nosey bitch.
“Of course, but the doctor and some cops will be in a little to ask you some questions.”
“Ok,” I half smiled because little did she know I was not sticking around that long. With all this shit that happened today I was saying fuck everything and leaving B-more ASAP! Soon as she shut the door I didn’t hesitate to call ‘Tika.
“Yo!” I yelled as soon as she answered the phone not letting her get a word in. “I’m at University Hospital come and get me NOW, and bring all your shit we headed to D.C a little earlier than expected. I’ll tell you everything when you get here!” I don’t even know if she said ok or if that was her who answered her phone because I hung up before any words were said from her line. I was on a mission I gathered all my shit got dressed and snuck out while my nurse was going to get me some ice. About 30 minutes later ‘Tika was there and we were headed to D.C as I told her the entire story from the day.
“Do you think it was them same dudes that had me?” She seemed scared when she asked.
“I don’t know and I don’t care all I know is after you finish up your classes this semester we are speeding up our plans and going to Atlanta like we planned to do anyway. I’m so over this shit.”
“I’m game with that. I need a fresh start anyway!” Little did Candy know that fresh start did not include her. Once in Atlanta she was on her own. I refused to have her drag me through this BS again or have my child involved in any of her little tricks and schemes, especially in a state where we didn’t know anyone.
