The ride back to the house was silent. Both of us had a lot on our minds. Jason was probably thinking that he solved a problem, but I was thinking about how I could get out of Jason’s custody to go get Shy.

Oh my God! I spoke in my mind. Oh my God! What kinda animal is this? Lord! I shook my head back and forth and stared out the window, feeling like my heart was going to burst. I continued to pray. This is horrible; what am I gonna do, God? Huh? Please help, Lord! Please don’t let that boy die. Please save him, Jesus! Tears fell down my face as I watched Jason speed up the freeway.

“Reese!” Jason smacked my leg, startling me. “Everything is gonna be all right. Look, I’m sorry for hitting you like I do but you be on some stupid stuff. Just stop getting in my way. I don’t like to hit you. It always messes yo’ face up for a minute! I don’t wanna look at that, so stay out the way. Okay, baby?”

My flesh was clenching from the very touch of this monster. I never even responded.

“Aey, you hear me?” He waved his hand up and down in front of my face. I saw him but I wanted to kill him. I hated him. The Bible taught to hate evil and so I did.

“I didn’t want it go down like that. I didn’t. I cared fo’ Shy, but, baby, when it came between me and him, I had to pick me.” He kept driving. “Tell you what; tomorrow we’ll go get you that ring you wanted. Huh? That sound good?”

I never moved, never responded, so while I looked the opposite way he startled me by smacking my thigh again. I jumped and looked down at my leg. It was red and hurting. I busted out in tears. Jason never acknowledged my response; he just continued to talk.

“It better, for five Gs!” He laughed. “I’ll get it wit’ the stack I got out of Shy’s pocket. He ain’t gonna need it!” He began to chuckle. “Okay, bad joke.” He continued to laugh. “But fo’ real, it’a be a miracle if somebody find him,” he whispered.

I shook my head. Jesus, please get me out of this! I screamed within. Please!

We pulled up to the house and went inside.

“Go ta sleep, babe, you’ll feel better in the morning,” Jason said while grabbing a soda out the fridge and turning on the game. He was acting as if nothing had happened.

What a cold-blooded murderer, I thought.

I acted like I didn’t hear him and went straight in the bathroom and locked the door. I ran some bath water and noticed that my hands were still trembling. I couldn’t stop thinking about Shy. I had to do something. I grabbed my cell out of my purse and dialed 911, then hung up.

I sat on the toilet with the same familiar tears that constantly fell, and covered my mouth with my hands.
