Grown Enough (On Hold)

Chapter Eleven

And I don't have to worry,
only worry is him
She do anything necessary for him
And I do anything necessary for her
So don't let the necessary occur
Yep!

"Look in every single abandoned building in this city and all of the surrounding ones. How he got my bitch, in my fuckin' city and my fuckin' niggas telling me y'all cannot find her?! It's our gotdamn city, how can we not?!" I yelled as I slammed my hands on the table.

My mind was about to blow. It's been 2 days and not a fuckin peep.

I can't sleep, I can't think.

I stepped in my office to cool down after I dismissed everyone.

I frustratedly ran my hands down my face a few times to fight off some tears.

They won't help me right now.

"I know we aren't Luke... but we are working nonstop to find her, she's our family. We won't let you down, Ace." Hakeem shut the door behind himself as he left out.

"Ryan, what's the traffic report?" I asked through the walkie talkie.

"Only seen 4 white vans like that exiting this city, 10 in the state. None of em, you know." He responded.

"I appreciate you." I nodded.

I took a deep breath, I ain't slept since.

I just need like 10 minutes but in those 10 minutes anything could happen.

I got in my car and headed home.

My body was begging me to crash but I can't. I can't let this girl down.

I can't never see her again.

I can't raise Adelynn without her.

And when I say can't, I really mean can't. That's the only thought that keeps me going although I feel so weak.

I just wanna surrender to everybody and be done with this shit.

How much pain can I promised in one fuckin' lifetime? Like I'm not truly a good man.

I pulled up to the house, going inside and having intentions on only crashing for 30 minutes.

When I woke up, someone was banging on my front door.

I quickly got myself together and headed to answer it.

"Yo." I swing it open to be greeted by Miller.

"Hakeem got shot. You know he's fine. Ethan said Winetop's boy agreed to work with us. Ryan is holding vans on the side of the road and... We couldn't find you... So we called Luke for direction."

This is why I don't sleep when shit is wrong.

"What time is it? What the fuck." I was so disoriented, I couldn't tell which way to go first.

"I'm sure Adelynn needs breakfast, can you take her and ma some food? I'll meet everyone at the trap. Tell Luke I said thanks, we got it now though."

"I got you." He snapped his fingers as he left.

I quickly got ready for the day and hit the streets.

My first stop is Winetop's boy.

I have been moving solo and quiet. I need to be a ghost in these times.
