Bad News

Chapter 19

Tess and Bless heard about what had happened to Ebony and Omar from the streets and not to mention it was all over the news. The cops were calling it the Canarsie bloodbath. "Baby, we have to handle this shit," Tess said. "First, a bomb in your car and now someone put a hit on Ebony and Omar," Tess stated.

"Yeah, you're right, but how do you know it was a hit," Bless responded.

"Baby, they left the money in the house it was at the front door and cops found it. I have to call Vanessa and tell her about Ebony," Tess said.

"Yo, you know she's going to go crazy."

"I know, but I have to be the one she hears it from." Tess went into the bedroom of their long beach house leaving Bless to his thoughts while he watched the news on TV.

In the bedroom, Tess cried hysterically over her childhood friend. Ebony, Iris and Vanessa had been friends for five years now and been in the game together that long. They were all her girls and now Ebony was gone.

With tears in her eyes, she picked up the phone next to the bed and dialed Vanessa's number, "Yo Tess, what's good girl," Vanessa said knowing it was her. "I haven't heard from you since yesterday when Bless called you to get some of that good stuff, HA! HA! HA!" Vanessa busted out laughing from her own joke. Even when she noticed Tess wasn't laughing with her nor had she said a word, Vanessa thought it was about business. It was the one time Tess put their friendship to the side and got serious. "Yo, I'm about done with that work and Iris is still M.I.A., but she'll show up. She always does," Vanessa said.

"Yo, Vanessa this ain't about business," Tess replied. "Vanessa, you know I love you."

"I love you too, Tess." Vanessa could hear the tears in her voice and knew something was wrong.

"Yo, Tess what's wrong?" She knew Tess wasn't the type to just cry over shit out of all the years she knew her. Tess was one of the strongest women she knew. "Tess you're okay? What is it?"

"Vanessa someone killed Ebony and Omar tonight."

"Nooo," Vanessa yelled and started to cry into the phone. "Who…. who killed my sister? Who? Who Tess?"

"I don't know yet but mark my words we're going to find out." Tess said. Vanessa was crying non- stop over her sister. "Listen Vanessa, I'll be waiting for you when you get here. I love you."

Vanessa didn't hear her, her mind was lost on her sister's death, with that Vanessa hung up the phone and cried the night away. Tess sat on her bed with tears in her eyes and grabbed her pink pearl handle 3.80 from up under her pillow. "I promise Ebony. I promise I'll kill whoever did this to you. I promise," Tess said as she looked up to the ceiling with tears rolling down her face. She tightened her grip on her gun.
