Ch. 32: Set Boundaries

Spencer James

*Two weeks later*

"Hello?" Spencer sleepily answered his phone. "It's two in the mornin', Chyna. What chu want?" he inquired as he rubbed his eyes to clear his vision.

"I...I need to tell you something" Chyna answered.

"If it ain't about Angel, I don't want to hear it" Spencer yawned tiredly. He wanted nothing more than to go back to sleep, he had an outing planned with Liv and his friends later on in the day.

"I'm outside" she said and Spencer immediately rose up in his bed.

"Outside for what?" He questioned as he quickly got out of the bed.  He then grabbed his shirt and walked toward the bathroom to quickly freshen up.

"I need to tell you somethin' important, Spencer. It couldn't wait til later either" Chyna said. "I have Angel with me" she continued and he scrunched his face.

"You brought my daughter out-"

"Spencer! You can yell at me later, just open the fuckin' door!" Chyna hung up on him and Spencer heaved a big sigh.

He walked out of the bathroom and toward the living room. He then peeked out the window and noticed Chyna's car parked in front of Mr. A's home. Sighing, he opened the front door and let the both of them inside.

"This couldn't wait-"

"You remember when you came by the other day?" Chyna questioned as she handed Angel to him. "You mentioned something about a dude named BH?" she continued as she removed her shoes.

"Yes, I do" He said as he locked the front door. "This couldn't wait til later?" he questioned as he followed her to the living room.

"I think he was involved in the shootout" Chyna ignored his question as she sat on the couch. "I was goin' to bed and it just clicked in my head" she said.

"Wait..." He slightly chuckled. "You think BH was involved in the shootout?" Spencer questioned as he sat next to her with a sleeping Angel in his arms.

"I remember that same day, I was on Jay's phone and he got a text message from BH" Chyna recalled. "It said somethin' about a package being delivered? He got upset when I told him about the text and snatched the phone from me" she explained.

"That could literally mean anything, C" He lightly chuckled. "You drove all the way out here and woke me up for this?" Spencer chuckled, shaking his head.

"Come on, Spencer. You're a smart dude" Chyna started. "You've been in this shit for too long to just dismiss this as nothing. I know you don't want to believe the OG played a part in the attempted hit, but let's not act like it isn't possible" she continued.

"You're right, I don't want to believe it C" Spencer sighed as he laid Angel in the space between them. "Why would he team up with Jay? The shit I've done for him and this damn gang!" He whispered-yelled.

"Maybe...maybe he sees that you're trying to elevate and that you no longer want to benefit him and the gang anymore?" Chyna hypothesized.

"So the solution for that is to kill me?" Spencer lightly chuckled. "That's not a smart move, he'll do more damage than good" he said, shaking his head.
