If Tomorrow Never Comes
“All we need is a couple hundred dollars that should…tie us over” desperate blue eyes stared into the face of her mother-in-law. Adrien didn’t like having to ask for money but since Anthony had gone broke and what they did have went toward his drug habits. Peggy smiled and hugged Adrien she hated to lie. She knew should tell them, his family about his drug abuse but she knew all too well that another ‘fall’ into a wall or an accidental trip down a flight of stairs would be in order for if she mummed a word to anyone.
After reassuring Peggy that Anthony was just suffering jet lag and needed to get to a hotel room she grabbed Rajah and got back into the car. “Did you get it?” Adrien didn’t answer him instead she let tears stain her cheeks “Well?” “Yes” “How much?” he asked sipping a beer she didn’t answer. She felt his hand slap her cheek “How much dammit?” “Eight hundred” she gave it to him “Nice…” he smiled wickedly “I hate doing this why can’t I get a job to take care of you?” he smirked after putting the money in his pocket “Yeah like I’ll fall for that and let you whore around on me” “But I promise…” she stopped because he was about to yell and attack she just dropped the subject.
Back home in Los Angeles things didn’t progress and Adrien never mentioned the subject of getting a job again. It was late night Adrien was sleeping on the sofa with Rajah under. The front door slamming awoke her she turned a lamp on “Anthony?” he staggered into the living room “What are you doing up?” “I wasn’t when you came in the door woke me” he scowled “Why do you lie to me? Don’t think I can take care of myself! HUH BITCH?” he screamed at her “Please Anthony lets not do this tonight Rajah is sleeping” she lifted him in her arms “Where are you taking my son?” “Just to his bedroom” “LIAR!” she put him back on the sofa and moved away because she knew Anthony would start abusing her.
First a vase smashed against the wall then slowly but surely Anthony had Adrien cornered and started beating her. She screamed and begged for him to cease but he just accused her of everything under the sun. “Please Anthony…” she cried against the wall trying to still protect herself. Rajah awoke “Daddy?” Anthony left Adrien in the corner “Hey baby it’s really late…” “What was all the noise?” he asked in his little voice “Mommy and daddy were having a long talk” Rajah accepted this and opened his arms. Anthony lifted the small boy and headed upstairs. Adrien didn’t move from the corner because as soon as Rajah was safe behind his sound proof walls it would all start again.
Adrien looked in the mirror at her bruises and tried her best to mask them with foundation and concealers. Rajah was sitting at the table waiting for breakfast she prepared a bowl of cereal for him “Here you go precious” she kissed his forehead. The doorbell rang she went into the hall and answered it. Flea’s comfortable face stared back “Is Anthony awake yet?” she nodded no. She knew if Anthony wasn’t up or home she wasn’t to invite any men inside their home. But it was raining and she didn’t think Flea wanted to wait outside “Come in please…” he entered. Anthony was atop the steps “Hey there you are” Anthony trotted down the steps Adrien disappeared to the kitchen “Hurry sweetie” she rushed Rajah into eating faster. “Did you feed your dog this morning?” he nodded no “Well take him upstairs to your room and feed him then I want you to get dressed that means brushing your teeth and all mister” she knew he’d play before doing as she said. She got Rajah upstairs and safe for when Flea left because it would be war once he left that home.
“You little slut…” he was on her “It was raining outside…I couldn’t ask him to freeze to death out there could I?” she tried to reason he slapped her “SHUT UP I don’t need your bullshit excuses!” he pushed her down and punched her a couple of times then ran upstairs. She grabbed the banister and ran upstairs “Rajah…”
She didn’t see Rajah’s door open instead she saw their bedroom door open. Anthony came out dressed “Where are you going?” she asked “Out…and if you so much as call anyone today I’ll beat you until there’s an inch left of your life” she knew he was serious. “And…” he added grabbed her keys and all keys “…I’m locking the doors of the house so you can’t go anywhere” “What if Rajah or I get hurt?” he scowled at her “I suggest you be careful” he pulled her close. Adrien noticed his eyes were glazed over he kissed her hard and fast then dropped her.
Adrien and Rajah sat in the living room reading a book when she heard the doorbell “Shhh” they stopped “Lets go up to your room” she whispered carrying him up. They hid out until the person left and Blu and Buster stopped barking. Adrien held Rajah close as he was playing with two action figures she drifted off to sleep.
It was pitch black when Adrien woke up again Rajah wasn’t in her arms she felt around in the dark and felt him laying on the floor. She silently got up and went to the door the lights were on in the hall. She heard Anthony calling for her “Adrien…you better show your fucking self before daddy has to get rough on you” she swallowed the lump in her throat she knew he’d get rough whether or not she gave in. For a moment Anthony looked at Rajah’s door she assumed he saw her so she silently moved into Rajah’s closet and hid from him in case he came in. Sure enough he came and turned Rajah’s light on and saw him on the floor sleeping she held her breath so he couldn’t hear her but she feared he could hear her pounding heart.
Anthony looked at the closet then turned the light off and left the room. About an hour later Adrien was packing Rajah’s things into an overnight bag she knew she had to work fast but silently. She crept out into the hallway and looked into her bedroom she didn’t see Anthony. Fear shot down her spine she never had run away from him before and if he caught her she knew the results would be tragic. She turned around and saw him in the guest room he was passed out on the bed she had to test how out of it he was “ANTHONY” she hollered but he didn’t move. She thought maybe he was waiting for her to make a move toward packing her belongings but instead he rolled over and emitted a long snore.
If memory served Adrien correct Anthony usually scattered all the keys on the desk in the hall. She took the bags downstairs when one fell down the steps it was a loud clatter then a BANG. Quickly she ran back to the guest room but he was still sleeping. She regained confidence she grabbed her keys and put hers and Rajah’s bags in the car then went upstairs to retrieve Rajah. He was gone from the floor she was beginning to panic “Rajah…?” she fumbled around in the dark he came out of the bathroom. The toilet was heard flushing she picked him up “Wha…?” he rubbed his sleepy eyes “Don’t ask questions just be quiet” she headed for the stairs. She turned to see Anthony “Where are you going?” “Don’t do anything stupid Anthony I’ve got our son and I’m taking us far away from you and until you seek help I’ll stay gone” she heard him following her she ripped the door open and ran to her car.
She got in and made Rajah crawl into the passenger’s seat. Anthony tried to open the door but she locked all the doors and the hatch “OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR ADRIEN…” he banged once more “Go ahead keeping making an ass of yourself in front of your son” he saw Rajah in the seat crying. Anthony came to his door “Hey buddy…it’s okay daddy isn’t going to hurt mommy he’s just upset she’s trying to separate us” Rajah looked at his father “Now unlock your door and let daddy in” Anthony looked at Adrien “Rajah don’t he doesn’t mean it he’ll beat mommy” “No I won’t I would never do that son just open the door and we can be a family” Rajah looked at his mother and saw the true fear in her eyes. He shook his head ‘no’ upon hearing that she started the car up “I’ll find you…I’LL KILL YOU BOTH DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?” she and Rajah both were crying while leaving.
“Adrien?” Julie answered her mother’s door she was holding a sleeping Rajah “Where’s Anthony?” “I left him” she swallowed her tears. She came in and laid Rajah on the couch “I left my car at a friend’s then flew here I contacted a friend here to bring me to here” she sat on the couch when her friend came in. He had her and Rajah’s bags “Well if you need anything else you call me cutie” she nodded he hugged her “Listen if it gets dangerous I mean it you pick up a phone and you call me” he kissed her forehead. “Why would it get dangerous?” Julie asked Adrien stood up and took off her jacket then her blouse.
Before Adrien knew it Blackie came over to Peggy’s house “Why didn’t you tell anyone?” she cried in her hands “I should’ve but I was afraid of him I didn’t want you to turn on me…” she let a loud sob escape her throat Peggy hugged her “I know all about abuse by a spouse but you shouldn’t have kept this bottled up he was making you steal from his own family and he’s endangering his son and he could’ve seriously hurt you not that the damage he’s already done hasn’t fucked you up royally” she squeezed her hand then continued to cry “I still love him I want to go home but only if he’s going to be himself again” “I know…but you have to understand it’s not safe here at my house he’ll suspect this sooner or later” “Peggy is right you can come stay with me that’ll be the last thing he expects” “I can’t…” she said quickly “Why not?” “It’s just…he’d kill me if he finds…” “It’s okay he doesn’t know where you are and John is not about to let something happen to you or Rajah” “That’s right” he nodded she looked at Rajah “Okay.”
Once they got to Blackie’s house Rajah was getting ready to sleep in James’ room with him “Do you want to talk about what has went on the past two days?” she asked him sitting on the edge of the bed. He didn’t speak “What’s wrong with daddy?” he finally asked “He’s an addict honey he let drugs take over his mind and body your daddy didn’t mean it when he said he’d kill us or the times he beat mommy he wasn’t himself but that doesn’t make it okay for daddy to do these things to us” Rajah sat up “Will daddy get better?” “I hope so baby” “If he does can we go home?” “I’m not sure” she tucked him back in then turned out the lamp.
She sat on the couch next to Blackie “How could I let him do this for so long?” “There’s nothing you could’ve done Anthony is too headstrong and would’ve used force to have his way about things so eventually this still would’ve happened” she laid her head on his shoulder “I love him and I feel guilty for leaving him there he threatened to kill me and Rajah both” “It’s good you got out before he did something to Rajah” “And to our unborn child” she stated “You’re pregnant?” she nodded “It was back two months ago when he came home and trashed the house while Rajah slept he beat me then forced sex on me” Blackie looked perplexed “I’ll tell you one thing I have half the mind to give that boy a good kick in the ass he sure as hell didn’t get this problem from me” she clutched his arm and stared into his eyes, her fear very visible “Please just let him be I don’t want him here” “Don’t worry I won’t let him know but if he does find you we have to make sure we move you fast enough” she broke down with frustration “I can’t run forever he’ll find me anywhere I go he has more than one influence on this earth” “So does his dear old dad I’m as sharp as an ace I can guarantee you three contacts that can protect you…”
It had been six months Rajah, Adrien, Alicia, James, and Blackie were out. They had stopped at a restaurant “I’ll be back I’m just going to the restroom” Adrien excused herself. She got into the stall and lock the door she heard someone enter. Not thinking much of it she finished up and opened the door. Anthony shoved her against the wall “I told you I’d find you…I don’t know who you’re with but I can easily trace you now” she went to scream he covered her mouth “There’ll be none of that…just listen to me I’m sorry I didn’t mean what I said I was fucked up I want you and Rajah to come home…”
Blackie’s cell phone started to ring he answered it “John he’s here and he’s very destructive he’s already been here while I wasn’t home” “Are you sure?” “Positive look I have to call Julie you get Adrien and Rajah somewhere safe” “We’ll do…Alicia go to the bathroom and get her out of there” she nodded getting up.
“Who are you staying with?” Anthony let go of her mouth “I’m not going to tell you even if you hurt me you won’t hurt Rajah” he hit the walls “I love you how many times do I have to say that?” “Until you actually mean it! You need help Anthony…” he cut her off by kissing her “I need my family home you, Rajah, and our new baby” she shoved his hands away “It will never be the same until you get help” she went to run out when Anthony pulled her back she fought then pulled out a piercing screamer keychain. He ran away by the time Alicia got there “He was here” Adrien cried.
“He’ll probably hit my house next then Julie’s but to make sure I’m checking you two in a hotel room” Blackie pulled into a small local hotel “I want Alicia to stay with us” Adrien requested “Too suspicious he’ll wonder where she is then he’ll be looking for all three of you I’ll come back for you I promise” he reassured taking her to the front desk.
Once inside the room Rajah hid under the blankets “My belongings are at your house he’ll know” “Maybe so but he won’t know what I’ve done with you but I will come back” he pulled the blankets up and lifted his grandson “You’ll be the man until I get back can you handle that?” Rajah shook his head ‘yes.’ Blackie hugged them both then left the room.
Blackie got home and started to pack Rajah and Adrien’s stuff up to take back to her. The phone rang “Hello?” it was Peggy and she was hysterical “Wait…calm down what’s going on?” “He came to Julie’s house and damn near killed Steve” “Shit! Look I’ve got to get these things to Rajah and Adrien just keep calm and call the police” he hung up “The police?” Alicia came to his side “He’s gone that far with this you keep the door locked and you DO NOT let ANYONE in that’s an order” Alicia nodded “James come here…” James came out of his room “If you see or hear Anthony you ARE NOT to open the door for him got me?” James nodded “Good!”
Adrien and Rajah were silent when Blackie came to the door “It’s me Adrien” she opened the door and swung her arms around his neck. He dropped their bags and hugged her back “It’s all right now the cops will soon be looking for him” she let go “What’d you mean…I don’t want him to go to jail” “He almost killed his brother-in-law” Blackie shut then locked the door Adrien covered her mouth in dismay “All this because of me I have to go back it’s the only way.” “Don’t let him think that he won’t get the help he needs if you come back things will just get worse…”
Back at Blackie’s house Alicia kept watch out the window “Someone’s coming down the driveway I heard a car turn off all the lights” Alicia and James turned all the lights in the house off. They could hear someone at the door they banged for a while. Alicia pulled James behind the sofa and shushed him. In the moonlight they could make out Anthony’s figure walking around to the glass doors he picked up a deck chair and broke the glass “I know someone’s home! James?” “Go to your room” she whispered he scurried lowly and silently. Alicia went to creep behind him to the phone Anthony grabbed her hand and pulled her off the floor “Where’s pop?” she didn’t answer he shoved her into a wall “He’s not here” “OBVIOUSLY NOT! WHERE THE FUCK IS HE?” “I don’t know he didn’t tell me” she cried “Bullshit! He’s got my wife and son doesn’t he?” she didn’t say anything “I’ll kill him!!! I’ll kill that motherfucker!” Anthony dropped her then ran out the doors.
Adrien kept to the window looking outside in the parking lot looking for Anthony to arrive any second. If she wasn’t at the window she was driving Blackie and Rajah crazy with her pacing “Why don’t you sit down?” she nodded ‘no’ “Are you nervous?” “No” she said “Well sit down you’re making me nervous” she sat straight down. Another hour had passed and Rajah was sleeping and the rain was pouring. Adrien placed a blanket over him he fell asleep on the floor. She sat back on the bed “Maybe you should call home to see if anything has happened” “Good idea” he picked up the phone but the line was dead “Great the rain has killed the reception” he hung up “Do you think your cell would be able to get through?” he pulled out his pocket “Fuck no this is a big dead spot” she shivered. He came to her side and wrapped his arm around her “It’ll be all right I promise Alicia and James are fine.” One look into his eyes set off a deep comfort into Adrien. The same comfort that Anthony gave her when they first met. Stares were getting closer as was Adrien and Blackie until their lips met.
Anthony sat in the car staring at the hotel room “C’mon come out of there I dare you to” he grinned maniacally. Four hours passed on very slowly when Anthony could see two people step out of the room. Blackie was putting his shirt back into his pants then kissed Adrien. Anthony clutched the wheel until his knuckles were white it was on.
“Yes, how may I help you?” Adrien opened the door to see two policemen “Are you Adrien Grant?” she nodded “We’re sorry to tell you this but after John Kiedis left your room he was maliciously attacked and has been hospitalized” Adrien felt sick in the deep parts of her stomach. “We have reason to believe it was your husband that attacked him and from talking to his other family members you aren’t very safe here at least not anymore” she nodded “Do you have somewhere to go?” she had to think “I can call someone” “Come down to the station with us for safety and until you can get a new place to stay.”
Rajah was up and down in his seat while Adrien made phone calls “Rajah sit still sweetie” he didn’t listen. Finally the line broke “Hello?” a groggy voice answered back “Mike?” “Last time I checked yeah…” she bit her lip “…do you have any idea what time it is in L.A.?” “Well nevermind that he found me and put Blackie in the hospital I need somewhere to go” since Flea was scatter brained he didn’t answer just yet. “Mike? Mike are you there? Mi…” “I’M HERE…I’m just thinking don’t panic look give me another hour and call back kay?” “Okay” she hung up. As soon as the hour had gone by she dialed his number again “We’ve got it worked out…” “Who’s we?” “John and me the two of us are heading up to Big Sur all you have to do is come back here” “But Anthony isn’t stupid he’s probably already halfway there” “Doubt it he’s probably still there admiring his ‘work’” a long silence “So just come back to L.A….” she was sobbing “…What’s wrong?” “I’m scared Mike this is all so scary” “It’ll be okay just do as I say.”
It was back to Los Angeles and on a vacation with Flea and John. Rajah and Clara were playing in the sand while Adrien was explaining to them what happened. She forgot [yeah right] to mention she slept with Blackie. She figured it wouldn’t do anyone a world of good to know. “He’s gotten into some pretty wild situations but none this complicated…” John didn’t finish for a second taking a piece of fruit from the plate before them they could tell Adrien was holding information back.
The silence grew into tension “I’m going to play with Rajah…” Flea got up. John didn’t feel like dismissing what Adrien had on her mind instead he probed her about it “Just how did Anthony find his path back to drugs again?” she didn’t answer “I dunno” John looked disbelievingly at her “You’re his wife and you never wondered how it happened?” “He’s a grown man he makes his choices…” she was getting high strung and nervous “I can understand if you don’t want to tell his family but you will tell me” she shot an angry glance at John “Is that so? I suppose you’re going to make me huh?” “I have my ways of making people talk” she got up from the table “I won’t let this go Adrien we’ll talk later” she turned around and flicked him off.
Stella and Clara were in the kitchen making dinner with Flea and Rajah. John skipped out to talk to Adrien again. She was in a guest room with the door locked. The closer you got to the door the sweeter the smell grew. John first had to find a way to pick the lock on the door with crafty skill he got it with a paper clip. He charged in the room to find Adrien getting high on the bed. He shut the door “I knew something wasn’t right!” “Oh John relax would you? Life’s too short to dwell on the negativity” “You little bitch! You’re the reason…it’s your fault” John was speaking fast. She was just laying there laughing “Adrien tell me…” she put her arms around him and started kissing him. He knew getting aggressive wouldn’t get him anywhere so he decided to just put up with the kisses and question her “What happened to Anthony?” “Hell if I know and hell if I care he destroyed the beautiful feelings we once had…I love you John” she kissed his neck “Whoa! Not there if I have to put up with this I don’t need evidence…no I mean about his addiction how did it happen?” “We started out just smoking pot then I introduced other things into the routine but he went too far with it” John tried to keep her mouth from slipping to his neck “Why did you let Anthony do that?” “Because I wanted to share it with him but he couldn’t handle it but maybe you can John…I always wanted someone who could handle what I want” she was starting to not make sense.
After John could get himself pulled apart from Adrien she followed him out the bedroom “So that’s it? You get your fucking info and rip yourself from me?” John looked oddly at her “Keep it down would you?” she was pacing and grabbing her head “I should’ve figured you wouldn’t understand GOD I’m so stupid! You’re just like Chad!” “What does Chad have to do with this?” John asked knowing he hadn’t been talking to Anthony much anymore “Nevermind that it’s none of your fucking business” “You slept with him didn’t you?” she stopped “Who told you?” he went to speak “It doesn’t matter that’s over now I’ve moved on I thought first to Blackie but damn if Anthony didn’t mess that up too and now you reject me?” “You slept with Blackie too? Damn this is much more complicated than we thought” he went to go to the kitchen when she hit him in the head with a candlestick. He wasn’t unconscious “Trying to kill me? Sorry but you hit like a kid” “I’LL STAB YOU” she squealed trying to use the candlestick as a knife.
Stella and Flea ran in “OH GOD MIKE!” she ran to the scene “I’LL KILL YOU!” Adrien squeaked through her sobs she just stopped fighting with John and laid on his chest. Flea and Stella pulled her off him Rajah was standing in the doorway just staring at his mother “Rajah? Baby it’s okay Mommy didn’t mean to fight with John they just were talking and it got out of control” “Like daddy?” he pouted “You lied to me…I want daddy” he began to cry. He hugged Clara’s legs to sob into “This isn’t like his situation” “You’re the reason he’s in this mess” John said “SHUT UP IT’S NOT MY FAULT” she screamed “Little tramp pushed him into drugs again somewhere along the line fucked around with Chad and most recently Blackie then tried her hand with me” John confessed. Stella let her go “Mike hold me back…” Flea didn’t take her seriously when Stella swung her fist into Adrien’s eye. Adrien went to retaliate when Flea pushed her onto the sofa “Seduce my boyfriend you…you slut!” “Ouch hurt me some more” Adrien said sarcastically.
Silence then hard knocking on the door followed by hollering “OPEN THIS FUCKING DOOR NOW” it was Anthony. No one moved he was moving around the cabin until he could see them in the living room “IF I GET IN THERE I’LL KILL YOU TWO” he was referring to Flea and John. Adrien and Stella started arguing, “We should throw you out there it’s you he wants” “Ladies stop this! Now the four of you stay in here and don’t open the door until it’s safe again Flea or I will come back for you” it was down the basement steps they locked the door once it shut. Stella banged on it before John left she opened it they kissed “Please don’t get violent” “No promises Stel” she shut the door again.
John came back into the living room to see the glass to the doors broke “Flea? Anthony?” John moved around until he saw Flea on his stomach “Fru stands alone eh? Great!” “I hear you…get this fucking shit off me I can’t move!” John pushed off the random items and helped him up “When I find that bastard his ass is grass!” they looked at the door “Lets get to mowing.” They went to the basement door they listened but it was no good you couldn’t hear what was going on down there.
Downstairs Anthony was trying to get in the door that led outside. “He can’t get in can he?” Adrien asked “Only if he has the code that door is the only one with a key pad lock” he stopped banging they heard beeping of the numbers “SHIT!” they ran to the door his hand entered grabbing Stella’s sleeve “HE’S GOT ME!” “Just keep pushing the door shut…Rajah go upstairs to Flea and John” Rajah nodded.
The door opened Flea and John fell down knocking Rajah down with them Adrien saw them reach the bottom. They were out except for Rajah “SHIT!” “WHAT?” Clara asked she saw her father and John laying there “Get up Papa!” “He’s out of commission for right now so is John” “What do we do now?” Stella asked, “Just keep pushing the door what else all three of us can’t take him” “I don’t know about that I mean the way Stella hits…forget that I never said anything” Clara had a quick laugh. Anthony went away finally they shut the door “OH GOD! Clara shut the top door and lock it” Adrien ran to Rajah and scooped him up then ran up to Clara she handed him Rajah “I’ll go find him and try to talk to him you and her try to take care of Flea and John and Rajah” she kissed his head before going out the room.
Not a second later Anthony busted into the basement door “HOW DID YOU GET IN?” Stella screamed. Clara unlocked the door and ran with Rajah. “LET GO OF ME…” “Shut up NOW!” he hollered, “Where are they?” “I don’t know” she cried “Yes you do. I’m giving you one last chance to tell me or I’ll go over there and skin you lovey dovey boyfriend alive” he pulled out a knife. The information she held was vital to more than just John’s life but also to Rajah’s and Adrien’s and now Clara’s “Adrien’s looking for you that’s all I know” “I don’t care about her anymore I want my son where is he? Is he with Adrien?” “Yes” she answered quickly “You can let me go now right?” she grinned “Oh no not yet Stella the fun has just began…I find out you’re lying to me it’s lights out forever for John and Flea” he shoved her up the steps.
Adrien was looking around the house some more when she saw a flash run by. Unsure of what it was she stopped and slid against a wall. She looked again it was gone she went to proceed when she saw Anthony with Stella knife blade to her neck “Oh looks like Stella loses fifty points for not being able to tell the truth” “NO DAMMIT!” she screamed trying to wriggle free from his grasp before Adrien could account for what was going on Anthony knocked them both out by shoving their heads into one another.
Clara grabbed her father’s keys to his vehicle she clutched Rajah’s hand tightly “I’m scared sissy” he referred to her as sister “It’s okay I’m going to drive somewhere and get some help” “Will you leave me?” he was tearful “No of course not” they went back through the living room to see Stella and Adrien unconscious “Lets go” she hurried him along.
Anthony stood atop the steps then proceeded down them “FUCK!” he didn’t see Flea and John anywhere until the open door led him to believe they were outside. Clara and Rajah were almost to the car when they felt someone grab them Clara went to emit a scream “Shhh it’s us what are you doing out here?” Flea asked then saw his keys in her hand “Clara Leigh Balzary! You weren’t really going to steal my car were you?” “Well…” “Let John ride with you and no joy rides this isn’t the time” she and John got Rajah in then left.
Flea had to stay alive long enough to get Stella and Adrien or find Anthony without Anthony finding him first. He decided the most sticky approach would be the aerial approach. Flea took to the roof by climbing vines on the side of the house “Lousy fucker if I ever get my hands on him I swear…” he muttered then he heard something. He looked down to see Anthony looking around “Shit…his car’s gone if I ever get my hands on Flea I swear…” Anthony said. Flea had to have this calculated properly or he’d die of the fall he was going to jump on Anthony. Sure enough Flea was right on target and Anthony was out cold.
Stella and Adrien tore out of the house to see the cops and several ambulances on the scene. “Did somebody order a half a pound of bacon?” Clara asked running to Flea. Rajah and John came to Adrien and Stella “What happened?” Stella asked “Dunno but they’ve got Anthony.”
“I love you…” Adrien said to Anthony through the glass “You fucked my life up and now I’m in here” he said “But only for two more months” “Yeah and you should know after the two months we’re divorced and I’m Rajah’s sole guardian” “I want to work things out” “Fuck you bitch! Work yourself out of my life for good!” there was nothing she could say to convince him to stay with her “I love you Anthony” “The feeling isn’t mutual…tell Rajah I love him and in two months we’ll see one another” she shook her head then parted.
