Yesterday was probably one of the most exciting days that I've had in a very long time.
I got a call from B early in the morning asking me if I could help him do something but that he didn't want to talk about it over the phone. So we met up and he filled me in on what is/was a crazy situation that is/was much larger than he anticipated (I will not disclose on here just in case.) Long story short he needed help getting his car back from his cousin who would not give it up willingly.
We met up with them at Ranch Market and I waited in my vehicle while he went with them in the check cashing facility. I'm not sure what happened when they got back to the car but shortly after I heard screaming "he's killing me, he's killing me..help me, help me.." I just sat and waited. Next thing you know cops pull up (two) and I was thinking to myself oh gheez...So I wait a while and then I step out the car and everyone was quiet and no one was cuffed so I let out a sign of relief. I knew if no one was cuffed by the time I got out everything would be alright. So the cops told him if he wants to get the car back (because legally he is the rightful owner,and they were illegally driving it) to do it legally with the help of police.
He dropped them off home and left the car with them because they were begging him saying they needed to take the kids to an event in the evening at their school. He wanted to see if that was really what they were going to do so he let them keep it for the time being. Later on his cousins (who's children go to the same school) said they never showed up so..he decided it was time to take it. He called the cops who met up with us and were going to escort us to the vehicle and acquire it back
We get there and you could feel the tension in the air...The cops told them they had to give him the keys and take whatever out the car that belonged to them. Taira was saying "you're really going to do this to me" over and over. The kids were screaming and crying and Valerie yelled "you did this to my life" and they were yelling my name. I didn't feel anything. I knew it was for the better. The kids don't understand. They have no idea what's going on. They are in a bad place and my parents are considering calling CPS on them because they are using drugs in the house. The car was just their means of going about the dirt they do. All of the neighbors were all outside and people looking and walking by. B looked at me and said "I feel like at any point someone could pop out the window and shoot" and honestly I was nervous..you could feel it in the air. But we got the car and met back at Rob and Lei's house. I wanted to talk to Keesha, face to face. I knew she was mad and I wanted to let her know she had no reason to be at this point. I helped THEM out as a team. I felt really good having done so. The whole day he made sure he kept in touch with her and let her know what was going on and while we were waiting for the cops I told him he should let her know we were waiting and that it could be a while.
ME...looking out for HER feelings. Cause I know if that was me I'd want every phone call...and every update.
She was initially upset that I was there or maybe she was mad but she took off with her cigarette down a few blocks walking fast. I told him I was just going to go. I called later and asked to speak to her because woman to woman I wanted to let her know she had/has no reason to worry. I feel confident that I don't want him like that...I rather they stay with each other and work things out because I know how much they mean to one another even though their relationship is turbulent. I am understanding. Today she met up with me briefly on their way to sort some things out and we hugged. I feel so much better. I am really happy that I can help them.
Their wacky drugged up fam that we got the car back from have been harassing me and my family business, they have been texting and calling making random threats (nothing violent) but I'm not thinking much of it at all..it's going to blow over on my end. I didn't do anything to hurt them in anyway. I can't say I feel bad because they treated me shitty and were two faced to me. ANYWHO...
What about my feelings for him? It's okay. Yes I do have feelings for him and I've been slowly breaking them down and knowing the difference between the kinds of feelings we have toward people in general. When he mentioned me "loving" him or whatever okay I would say yes I do as a friend but would I ever date him again no, probably not and I know him all too well..that works out for the better for me. I'll find my own eventually. Someone who's right for me. He's not right for me. I rather things be this way where we can all get along. I think it's funny though that she had been the one threatening to fight me before and cursed me out before and here she was hugging me :) I'd really like for them to be happy together. For now, I've done my job. Actually ending this one on a good, happy note in regards to that idiot (for once!)
I have a lot more to say about what this experience has taught me about certain things but I'll hold off for now..THIS WAS KINDA LONG!
