Lance nodded “okay love I’ll watch Quincy!” He said Alice smiled she got up kissing quincy’s forehead and hugging lance kissing him afterwards she grabbed her keys and left.

She had a smile Alice looked at her and Alice looked back at her Emily was one of the friends that drugged her causing her to get pregnant and to have to leave the acting (entertainment) world Emily hadn’t known Alice known.
The only reason Alice hadn’t confronted her was because she wanted enough proof to put her behind bars “so Alice how’s my favorite person Quincy?” Emily said Alice looked down then back up at her smiling “he’s... great just last week he started school he’s learning about numbers and stuff I wouldn’t know much though.” Alice said Emily nodded “Alice I wanted to tell you something that I haven’t told Eric.” Emily said Alice nodded as she knew she would find out sooner or later.
She smiled “I’m a month pregnant with Eric’s baby!” She said Alice smiled “that’s good for you maybe our kids would hang out when their older.” Alice said Emily nodded she waved bye and left Alice turned around entering her work space she closed and locked the door she silently screamed “that bitch I’ll make her pay!” She said Alice calmed down she immediately sat down.
Alice looked at her phones lock it had been of her, Quincy and lance at The Brooklyn bridge it had been months since they lived in the city they had moved a few months ago to westChester Quincy had gained a lot more friends than when they lived in the great big apple.

Alice walked towards the main room Emily had been waiting she looked at Alice smiling, she quickly sat down “so Emily what brings you to my humble aboat?” She said Emily smiled “nothing just.... just wanted to visit.” She said Alice nodded.
Alice sighed “I’m going to be making some food do you mind if you set the plates?” Alice said Emily smiled she nodded Alice and emily got up Alice and Emily walked towards the kitchen she felt a sharp pain in her side along with a warm liquid dripping she looked down there had been blood on her clothes she turned around Emily had a knife she had stabbed Alice in the back “w-why?” Alice said Emily looked at her nervous “y-you weren’t supposed to come back alive when we sold you to that gang... I’m sorry I’m just finishing a debt to them.”
Emily had let go of the knife that was lodged into Alice’s side Alice fell hitting her head on the hard cold floor her vision soon faded the last thing she saw was a flash of blue and red lights she closed her eyes.
She slowly began to regain consciousness slowly she looked next to her, her boss had been sitting across the room while her son was next to her Michael noticed her gaze, Alice looked at him confused “w-what happened wh-where am I?” Alice felt a sharp pain at her side she looked where it had hurt there she saw the many bandages blood had by now seaped through “Alice your in a hospita”. He said Alice looked at him confused.
“W-why am I in a hospital?!” She said Michael got up trying to calm her “Alice don’t you remember Emily stabbed you.” He said Alice looked at him her eyes began to tear up she looked down at her hands “w-why why me?” She said Michael looked at her shrugging.
