"Where the fuck is Ahmad? Nigga was supposed to be here an hour ago." Akira said.  "That's it, I'm calling him."

Moments later, Ahmad rushed through the door.  He was breathing hard, and he sat on the couch.  He was breathing back and forth non stop.  Monique grabbed him a bottle of water, tossed it to Mariah, and Mariah handed the bottle to Ahmad.  Once he took a sip, Ahmad was getting back to normal. 

"Ahmad where the fuck have you been? You know we was supposed to be here an hour ago!" Akira yelled.

"I know bae, but I had to go see my son, and check and see how my daughter is doing." Ahmad said.  Akira rolled her eyes, and didn't say a word.  Ahmad and Akira have been arguing on and off about him going to see Brianna.  She told Ahmad that she didn't trust Akira so she wanted him to come see his kids at her place.  Ahmad didn't want to do it at first, but he would do anything just to see his kids. 

"Alright.  Everyone is here.  Now why we here?" Amya asked. 

"Somebody been texting Monique on some bullshit.  Moral of the story, Monique is in danger.  We are in danger.  And from the looks of it, we gotta get out of New Orleans ASAP." Mariah stated. 

"Maaaaa!" Monique dragged. 

"What? I'm being serious.  I told y'all I'm done doing reckless shit.  That was back in the day, and now I'm grown enough, and I would think everyone in here is the same." Mariah said looking at everybody in the room. 

"So what the fuck are we supposed to do then ma? I mean think about it.  Somebody is after me, and I don't know who it is, but I know Sherrie knows exactly who it is." Monique said.

"Sherrie? You talking about the one Yung used to smash?" Ahmad asked, and Amya smacked him in the face. 

"Dude!" Akira said.  "Not cool."

"I'm sorry sis.  My fault Yung." Ahmad said, and put his face down.  Monique sighed, and sat down on the couch beside her mother.  August shook his head, and stayed quiet as well. 

"I'll tell you what though, we need to figure out who's after Monique." Amya said. 

"Agreed." August said eyeing Monique. 

"Well, y'all know what the fuck we gotta do." Monique said getting up, and grabbing her glock 40. 

"See NO! NO NO AND NO." Mariah yelled.  "Monique what did I just say? We are not going back to that.  There's gotta be another way to find out who's after you."

"Oh really? Okay ma, what way is that? Other than the way to get us killed." Monique said. 

"Monique, do you not know what happened 10 years ago? I'm not going through that tragedy anymore.  It's dangerous and plus you're pregnant.  For God sakes, what if something happens to my grandson? Then what?!" Mariah said.
