"Girl why you be running?" "Stirring mandla up" the girls smirked "playing with fire there" "nah we good. What's going on?" Seeing two cars drive past, I grabbed Shania "girl what the.." hearing shots, i pushed Shania to the ground as i got tackled. Hearing them stop, I looked up then behind me. "Thanks".
"Girls you good?" "Yep" "fine" "I'm good, thanks girl" "welcome".
"Get up off the damn ground" hearing the girls laugh at amari, I got up with Shania and mandla. "damn bastards that shot me last time" "you be careful girl. They be knowing you by ya skin" "who are they?" "Hound" "that's their name?" "Shit huh" I chuckled "yep". "Girl let's get ya home. You sure you are good?" "Yeah" this girl be worried "I'm taking my girl home. Don't need her getting shot" "we be talking soon girl" "catch cappuccino" I chuckled.

"Damn cappuccino now" Shania laughed "depends where you are at. With me and the girls its olive or yin. With the boys it's cora or olive and with them it's yin, babe or cappuccino. Don't know how you got in with them" "couldn't tell ya, I don't even know. Well with mandla I do, I beat his ass" Shania cracked up laughing "ya ain't letting him live it down are ya?" "Nuh. Not right now I ain't".

Mandla.

Damn cappuccino be fine. That boy be cheating, then not belting his boy for slapping her. Argh he better be looking after her, I be kicking his ass.
Taking a bullet for his mate and copping a damn stabbing. That girl don't be needing that shit.
Damn she has some cheek to her, I know she was messing around earlier. She fits in well here and I've got her back.
I want to be killing those who have touched her though. when I find those girls, i be hanging them from trees as damn decorations.
Damn she was quick, getting Shania out of aim but the damn girl didn't care about herself so I tackled her down. Hoping I didn't hurt her though. Shit I better message her.

- cappuccino I didn't be hurting you did I?
Cappuccino - nah I appreciate it. Thanks. Hope yas are all good too. Needed to get my girl home, she didn't seem alright
- hey, be here to save ya. Yeah we all good. She never been shot at huh?
Cappuccino - glad to hear it. Nah but I'm experienced these days...got that shit down pat
- hahaha damn cappuccino. Stay safe.
That girl be damn fine. 'argh mandla be keeping it real man'

Emmanuel.

"There's ya girl" seeing cora and Shania, I ran down the court to both of them. "Oi where you two been huh?" "The springs. Damn drive by. I'm getting this girl home" "Shania are you good?" "Yeah this one got me safe" "just worried about my girl. She ain't dealt with that before" damn it "go play Emmanuel" watching Shania and cora walk off, I was kicking myself. My sister was shot at. Wait why the fuck they be at the springs.
"Guys I'm out" "you good man?" "Yeah. see ya at school".
Running home when I walked in, Shania and cora were at the table. "ay why you two be at the springs?" "We be with angel, palesa, mandla and amari" "that shit be dangerous. You be going there, taking my sister?" "Whoa there. She's safe" "she could've got shot" "olive pushed me out of the way. That wouldn't have happened" "pushed or not. Fuck cora, ya put her in danger" "argh girl, I will let ya speak with Emmanuel" "don't be fucking walking away cora. You hanging out with them could kill my damn sister" "don't be going at her Emmanuel" "Shania this is fucking serious" "she was protecting me" "I don't give a fuck" "well maybe ya fucking should" "argh I need to stop her from talking to them. This is going to cause hell for us. She be putting my fucking sister in danger. Fucking hell" "Emmanuel just stop and relax, I'm fine" "yeah and it won't happen again" "EMMANUEL" "shut it" "damn boy shit".

Entering our room, cora was sitting on the bed "ya fucking be putting my sister in danger associating with them. You don't be caring. This is bullshit and I ain't dealing with it. Ya need to fucking stop" "you be telling me what to do huh?" "She could get fucking killed" "I didn't fucking drag her ass down there and I fucking protected her, but ya going me" "yeah I am. You need to stop this fucking shit right now" "who the fuck are you to tell me who I can and can't associate with. Where the fuck is the concern for ya girl huh. I thought you had my damn back too but ya fucking don't" "of course I have ya back olive" "oh yeah you be standing up to your precious boys when they be talking shit to my face?, you be standing up to junior when he slapped ya girl?. Nah ya fucking haven't, dont be telling me ya got my back" "STOP both of you please. Yins right she didn't be dragging my ass down there but she said she'd protect me and she did.." "I don't fucking care. You are my damn twin sister, I can't be fucking losing you" "Emmanuel she be your girl too yeah" "she be causing some damn trouble, that's what she is doing. The boys be right" standing up I looked at my stuff "alright" "yin don't be doing this" "nah do it" I shook my head. Grabbing my suit case once again. I put it down for only a moment. Removing the necklace from my neck, I grabbed my suitcase throwing the chain at Emmanuel "have ya damn boys and shit. Find yaself a girl who likes to be fucking spoken down to by them and you while she be protecting their damn ass" walking out Shania grabbed my arm "don't be leaving him cora" "he don't be giving a fuck about me, this is what he wanted, he got it" "stop please, don't do this. He just be angry" Shania pulled me to the far room and closed the door. "He gets this way when he be stressed. You be right about him and the boys but you be destroying him if you go" "I can't be sitting here and him blaming me for everything. He don't be caring Shania" "he be caring, I swear to you he is. That boy just needs to get his damn priorities straight" hearing Emmanuels door slam shut, Shania put her head down. "Just be staying"
