Chapter 12

March 10, 2020

Janet looked at Victoria and her heart sank. She looked extremely stressed out. "Victoria what happened?"

"I- Ma I just..I'm so sorry Ma." Victoria broke into tears and so did Kendra. Tupac was heated. It looked like steam was coming from his ears. "Who did this to y'all? I want names immediately."

"No Pac, go calm down. Get an ice pack cause you're red in the face and somewhat sweating. Shania, you take Eissa upstairs and stay with him okay?" Tupac grabbed an ice pack to calm himself down while Shania took Eissa upstairs. Janet grabbed a first aid kit to care for Victoria and Kendra. "Who did this to you? Please tell me."

"I'll go first. I met this girl while I was in California and she seemed like a nice person. I decided to go out with her and then it sprung from there. She was out of touch with so much and I taught her so much, I even let her have me sexually. Then she began to change and I addressed it. We got into an argument a few times and she hit me one day. That's when it continued, I'd have to lock myself in certain rooms so she'd stop."

"Who is she??? Tell me."

"Her name is Ida." When Janet heard her name, her heart stopped. All the memories of everything Ida had done was coming back to her. The night Ida drugged them, the morning after, the times she'd come and sexually touch Janet so Ida would keep quiet, and the day she hit on Shania and tried to touch her inappropriately. It made her blood boil. "Victoria go upstairs and take a nice warm bath okay?" Victoria nodded and walked upstairs. "Kendra what-"

"His name is Trevante and he's in Los Angeles, California, I'll give you the apartment number and everything."

"His name and where he resides is enough for me." When Kendra and Victoria were sleeping, Janet took a drive to Los Angeles. She found Ida's address and kept a gun and knife on her for safety. "Well well well, i didn't think I'd ever see you again. Come in sweet stuff." Janet walked in slowly and sat on the couch.

"So what brings you back to me hmm? You miss me or something?" Janet didn't respond. "Cat got your tongue beautiful?" Janet starred at Ida. "Well whatever you're here for, you'll tell me." Janet fired two warning shots in the air. "Have you lost your fuckin mind?"

"No..I actually have gained intelligence unlike you." Janet aimed the gun at Ida who was slowly backing up. "You kill me, and that's the end of your career Ms. Jackson."

"You think I haven't done this shit before? You don't think I don't know you have Trevante and some hussy upstairs recording our conversation? You don't think I didn't disconnect the security system and the phone lines stupid bitch? You see here's the thing. I was best friends with Tupac since 1992. I've learned so much from him, not only him, but friends around him. I hung out with him so much, that certain shit comes so naturally, especially killing a bitch. You don't think he hasn't put a bitch like you infront of my gun and I haven't blown out her fuckin brains? You think I'm that gullible and fuckin stupid?"

Ida was in absolutely shock and was scared. How did Janet even know Trevante was upstairs with someone trying to record the conversation? How did she disconnect everything? All these questions were running in her head and it was making her more scared. "Tell Trevante bring his ass downstairs with the hussy and the recording. By the way, the recorder doesn't work, it's useless." Trevante came downstairs and saw Janet pointing her gun towards Ida. "Look, we mean no harm-"

"Shut the fuck up before I blow all you bitches so fucking far through this house, it'll look like the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre." The mystery woman started to come down the steps slowing with her hands up. "Janet..please don't do this..it's absolutely not worth it I promise you." Janet knew the voice sounded familiar but when she saw the face she almost lost it. "Shawnette? Oh I know damn well." Shawnette came downstairs and tried to get as close as she could to Janet. "I'll cut your ass if you get any closer."

"I swear to god I'm not in any of this with them. Please, don't shoot."

"How do I know you're not lying?"

"Because..I cut the phone lines for you. I'm here against my will and they're trying to kill me." Trevante made a move and Janet fired her gun but it hit no one. Ida tackled Janet and fought with her on the floor. The gun slipped out her gun as she struggled with Ida. "SHAWN GET THE GUN!" Shawn ran to get the gun but when it was time to shoot, she couldn't get a clear focus on who to shoot. Janet pinned Ida onto the floor and pulled out her knife. "Move bitch and I'll stab you." Ida stopped fighting her and gave in. Janet looked at her phone and saw that police were on their way. "Shawn we gotta go. You bitches better get fuckin ready! This shit? This is fuckin war." Janet grabbed her gun and Shawnette and they get got into the car. Janet aimed her gun at Shawnette as she drove off. "You got any wires, weapons, or bullshit you wanna get rid of before you tell me what the fuck is going on Shawn?"

"I don't have anything I swear." Shawnette emptied whatever was in her pockets and Janet uncocked the gun and put it on safety. "Shawnette how the fuck did you even get into this bullshit?"

"I met Ida a few months ago and she asked to work along beside me. I didn't know the bitch was potentially nuts." Janet sighed as she drove off. The car ride was extremely awkward and quiet, considering they hadn't talked in years. "Jan? Where are we going?"

"Right now, I need to think." Janet pulled up in front of her Malibu home. Shawn got out the car with her and followed her inside. There were photos of Shania and Victoria as kids and a  picture from time Janet and Pac were filming Poectic Justice was blown up and put into a huge frame that was above the fireplace.

Janet was on the couch in deep thought while Shawnette continued to examine the room. "Touch anything and I'll kill ya."

"What happened to you Jan? You use to be so quiet and un-violent. Well you checked off into ass but you weren't like this."

"I got older and had kids and married somebody who'd I know would protect me, what you think?"

"If he's protecting you, why didn't he come with you?"

"I can handle myself Shawnette." Shawnette sat next to a stressed out Janet. "You're scared to death. Obviously this man isn't doing much protecting."

"Are you saying you can do better?" Janet and Shawnette made eye contact. Janet realized that it wasn't awkwardness that was happening during the car ride, it was sexual tension. "Are you gonna let me prove it?" Janet could feel how thick the tension was and it almost made her jump. This was the second time that Janet was getting caught up with her past and it was starting to make her weak. Shawn started to unbutton her blouse and made Janet watch. "C'mon, give in Jan." Shawnette leaned in and kissed Janet's lips. "No! Unt uh Shawn I got over you once and it's stayed like that."

"You know what Jan? You sound like you scared to touch pussy."

"Scared to touch- bitch didn't we fuck? Didn't we fuck? Yes or no Shawn?"

"I was your first."

"You thought you were my first, but you weren't."

"Ooh so you fuckin lied to me? Oh so it's like that?" Janet and Shawn continued to argue but when they heard a door open they stopped. There stood, a very visibly angry Tupac. "You betta have a good ass explanation to why the fuck you're all the way in Malibu."
