fucka.”
“Bitch please. You don’t scare me; and just to let you know, you don’t scare JoJo either. Leave that damn girl alone.”
At that moment, the room became really quiet. It was so quiet you could have heard a rat piss on cotton. I looked at Re and then back at Dirty. There was a storm brewing in my auntie’s living room. Re smiled at Dirty. It was a ‘bitch, you lucky you my friend’ smile.
“E, you can’t save that bald-headed bitch. When I want her, I’ma go get that ass.”
I was confused.
“Ya’ll, what does JoJo have to do with anything?”
“Tell her E!”
I looked at E and waited for an explanation.
“Okay, let’s play catch-up. Lil Man was causing so much havoc around here that I got in touch with the one person that I knew could find him. She started feeding me all type of information on him. She wasn’t lying, because everything she said he was going to do he did. She even set him up for me.”
“So what happened then?”
“After me and Re shot up JoJo’s sister’s crib trying to get him, she couldn’t go back there.”
“So where she at?”
“She’s been staying with me.”
I didn’t know how to respond to that one.
“I mean E, ain’t this girl the enemy?”
“Yeah and no. Let’s be real for a minute. We’ve done some fucked up shit. She’s connected to our situation because we killed her brothers and her cousin. Not that I’m sorry for it, I’m just stating facts. She may have been plotting on me; but when shit got real, she changed her mind. All that girl wanna do is move away and raise her baby.”
“Baby? Who got her pregnant?”
“Lil Man.”
“Eeew, she gave that lil’ dirty-ass nigga some pussy?”
“Yeah, and now all she trying to is get out of town and raise her baby.”
I looked at Re.
“So Re, what’s the problem on your end?”
“The bitch gots to go! Point blank and period. She was in cahoots with Lil Man and that’s unforgivable. I don’t give a fuck about how she came into the picture.”
I could see there was no changing her mind, but I still had to try.
“But Re, she’s pregnant.”
“With Lil Man’s baby. He killed Tiki. I’ma kill that bastard-ass baby.”
I could see that E was getting mad.
“Re, we ain’t no monsters. Haven’t enough people died? After Lil Man killed Tiki, he started a war. Yeah, he gotta go . . . and that bitch, Mia. Let that girl live. We need to get back on our shit. Money ain’t no problem. This shit has gone too far. Let’s finish school and try to live a somewhat normal life.”
“Ain’t shit gon’ be normal without Tiki.”
“Okay, we can get Lil Man and Mia, but after that no more, Re.”
I looked at Re.
“I agree. My lil’ jail experience was not pleasant. If we keep doing all this killing, we gon’ end up in jail forever.”
“E, you better keep that hoe as far away from me as you can.”
I needed to keep a close eye on that damn girl.
Chapter 8
Lil Man
I was going through it big time. That bitch, JoJo, ran off with my baby. I didn’t know that I could want something so bad other than bloodshed. I just wanted to get revenge for Pancho. In the process of it all, I lost damn near my whole family. I just want my baby. I wasn’t trying to go to jail for killing nobody; but if anybody got in my way while I was on this mission to find that no good-ass bitch, JoJo, I was going to murk they asses. I’ve been trying to lay low but my pockets are suffering. I was tired of asking that bitch Mia for shit. The bitch think’s I’m stupid. I know she’s tryin’ to play nice with me because she knows I’m a killer. I may be young, but you can’t manipulate a manipulator. I’ll play her little game until I find JoJo. After I find her, I’ma take my baby and kill that hoe. Me and my cousin KeeKee plan on moving down south with some family. His mother put him out because she said that it was all his fault that Baby Dro and BayBay got killed. I was so deep in,
