I was riding home from school today on my bus, listening to music and
not paying attention to anything. As we were stopping at one of the bus
stops, a girl in the back started screaming. I looked back and saw her
pointing out the window, and I followed her stare. Out in an unfenced
yard were three guys. Two of them standing, one of them was on the
ground, bloody. The taller of the two men had a baseball bat and was
about ready to smash it into the downed man's head again, when the men
realized a whole busload of kids was looking at them. As the bus driver
radioed in the 911 call, the other man, who hadn't been doing anything,
took a pistol out of his pocket and shot the guy in the head.
At this point, the whole bus was in shock and glued to the morbid
scene. The two men got into a car and sped off. When I came home I was
visibly shaken. I told my mom what I had just seen. Then she got scared
and said, "You're moving with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air." I
whistled for a cab and when it came near, the license plate said
"FRESH" and it had dice in the mirror. If anything I could say that
this cab was rare but I thought "Nah, forget it, yo homes to Bel-Air!"
I pulled up to the house about 7:00 or 8:00 and I yelled to the cabby,
"Yo homes, smell ya later!" Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there,
to sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air.
