the entire day of Jan 17, 2017 will change my life FOREVER.

On this day it was a regular day nothing out of the ordinary. I went to the grocery store grabs a few items for dinner. Stoped at a gas station got gas. I called one of my close female childhood friends. By the way when I say ( I don’t have friends ) I DONT! So she is considered a true friend till this day. I love her and I couldn’t pay her a million but what she didn’t know was her life was about to take a big turn that night… I’m truly sorry she has known me for 10 years of my life she never knew ANYTHING about me as far as personal life she was my partner in crime ALWAYS.

So on the night of Jan 17,2017 my phone Rang ( iphone flashing ) while making noise before I could answer a feeling of fear came over me but never the less I didn’t care I answered. Hello ? Tanazha ? Helllllo ????

What boy ( rolling my eyes ) it’s my Ex boyfriend. We was supposed to be moving on after dating at that time for about 5 years! He was my LOVER! So I thought I’ll later on show you why… Once the relationship turns from love to hate . It’s TIME TO WALK AWAY but we stayed and the outcome wasn’t good (we are not in contact nomore) but nevertheless here we go I answered and it changed my life!! I would do ANYTHING to change the situation I was about to put myself in.

Conversation between me and my lover

Him : HELLLLLLLO why are you not answering my calls!!! He yelled loudly through my ear .

Me : boy leave me alone!!! Ain’t we done??

Him: whatttttttttttt? No we not

Me : whatever!

But in reality I was tired of dealing with the relationship I had found me a OLDHEAD as y’all would say! Not to mention his birthday was on the same exact day as One of my baby sisters I adore so much! So you know how me and him was 🫶🏾

Him : what do you mean whatever!! So toxic

Me : I hangs up!!! Don’t wanna be bothered Where is my old head with the good sex!

Phone rings again!!!!

My ex boyfriend AGAIN

Him : what are you doing ?

Me : NOTHING what’s up!

Him : you got the strap?? (a handgun)

Me : Yeahhhhhhh what’s up? ( rolls eyes ) because I already Know what he about to say next!

Him : come Get me Let’s go on a run ONE more time?

Me not knowing this will Literally BE MY LAST RUN! ( feeling uneasy, my gut feeling)

I ignored it. Because for the ones who know me they know me they know that I like to take RISK!

Picks up ex- Boyfriends & others!!!!!

So now it’s me & my childhood friend, my ex boyfriend & 4 of his friends!!

Yeah I said 4 of HIS friends you will later on see why They was never friends to begin with. So yeah it’s 2 girls 4 boys we ridding out .

Me & ex boyfriend & his FRIENDS know what the plan is!! They know what we get into. Guess who didn’t know the game plan??? My Child hood friend she didn’t know that part of me! I never showed that side nor did she EVER in a million Years expect what I’ve been getting my hands dirty doing. She just Knew that I was going to get my ex boyfriend who she knew was my lover we all knew each other me , her & him. She didn’t know any other parties involved this night.

Okay here it go!!! I stop at a gas station gets gas ! ,( nervous about the whole situation) yet I got myself together and still pulled myself to do this last run remember “JUST ONE MORE TIME” I just knew at this very giving moments all my troubles might catch up to me if I get caught! All I could think about is JAIL ! Prison ( GORGE W HILL) was where I was headed that night & I had NO IDEA that it was gone play out like this.

Of course one last run meant “ robbery” stick sum shit up! I get a rush I’m a female I shouldn’t be into this type of stuff but I was. I was 19 & young.

So we jumps on the highway & heads towards Philly (Philadelphia) and we looking for some shit to stick up. Ok not my idea for what this pick was ( laughing) because if it was me we was gone hit the BANK next to it! Shit like I said I like to take RISK so they chose where they wanted to hit & i chose to park up! Not make my car HOT ( noticeable) but of course I couldn’t hide no big ass Chevy Tahoe ( rolling eyes ) still thought I could. So I did and boy was that a bad decision.

Gives ex boyfriend my new nigga gun and yeah you heard it correct ( My OLDHEAD )

He would kill me if he knew how this story ended man REST IN PEACE to my boy !!! He was one of the real ones.

So they exited the car and did the robbery …

Later came back to the car and we pulled off and the feelings that I had about my gut feeling! ( it’s always right ) I should have listened is what I will be saying by the end of this “ LAST RUN “ so I’m driving we are now approaching what’s considered ( Chester ) & you know the famous chicken spot right there on that strip I can’t recall the name but anyway ( there go 12) somebody yells from the back seat!!

Me : Check mirror after passing him (12 ) What looked like it was nothing was now about to turn BIG! The cop signaled me to pull over . HAHA ! I’m laughing because what I’m about to do next is HISTORY it made the news.. to be continued I can’t give you the whole story just yet! I’m still WRITTING MY BOOKS . You’ve heard this part of my book now still around and age how it turned out
