Random Story story: Should i hide the body?

     *Ring ring ring* "Hello?" says  a very sleepy Alexandra. "Wake up i need you." with out even another word she knew who it was. That's the thing about best friends they don't need names or numbers in your phone. Just one word and by the voice alone you know who is on the phone. "Address." is all Alexandra says. "350 pine. Please hurry." She hopped in her car and went to get her friend. she pulls up and there she stand. "I didn't mean to but i killed him." Alexandra looked at her shaking friend. "We need to call the police." Alexandra suggest. "No they wont believe me on what happen he came after me, well he tried to." Alexandra knows exactly what they are saying. "They would be believe you if you don't speak out." Alexandra is just trying to help. "Come on get real. He is a star athlete and me a nobody. We aren't exactly on the high end of the food chain. And well you know there is the whole its me thing." K looks down. Alexandra looks at K. "The truth is better then any lie i will fight for you K. Rape is not a maybe thing. If he tried it isn't right, it is perfectly normal for you to put up a fight." K sits there thinking of the options, what to do? "Call your mom please Alexandra. She will be able to help." Alexandra smiles calls her mom and then the cops.
     Alexandra and K told the cops everything that happened. The cops didn't want to listen, they couldn't believe that their star athlete could wanted K. Before you know it K was taken away, off to jail for murder. Alexandra couldn't believe what she was seeing. She really did believe the truth would help, her and her mother stood there hand in hand. "This is wrong, K didn't do anything wrong but yet this is happening." Alexandra mom hugs her. "Its time to take it to the most powerful people of all." Alexandra looks a little lost. "The Man?" Thinking her mom is talking about the jurisdictional system. "No to the public perception they decide everything."
    Alexandra stand in front of the jail with cameras on her. "Today i am here to speak out on a great injustice happening here today. In there they are holding my friend K. K defend agonist a rapist and won. The rapist is now dead and K is on trail. It doesn't matter your beliefs on many things. Rape is wrong. The only reason K is on trail is because K is a man. The cops didn't believe him, that a seemingly straight football player tried to rape him. If K stood for Karen and not Kevin, this would be a different story. But because Kevin is the male, he is be booked for a murder. Wrong he is a victim and we need to stop victim shaming. Like i said no matter your beliefs Kevin fought back and did the right thing. He called the cops and turned himself in. Never let your personal beliefs cloud your judgement of what is right. Gay or straight no one has the right to harm your body. Thank you for your time." I wish to say Kevin was let go. but this isn't a prefect world and he is doing life. Alexandra often wishes she would of just helped K hide the body. For even if the younger generation understands, it is still the old generation in power and there is nothing yet we can do to change that. Just teach our kids that no matter your beliefs EVERY HUMAN HAS A RIGHT TO PROTECT THEIR BODY!
