BRONX, NY📍"Why the fuck she ain't answering her phone" Xavier spoke under his breath as the call went to voicemail again for the fifth time.
Last time he checked Diamond and him were on good terms so there wasn't any reason for her not to answer her phone.
Xavier smacked his lips leaving his phone down on his bed to continue charge before he went in Alex's room to check on him.
He could be overthinking stuff when she might be busy doing something where her phone wasn't in reach.
"You ready for breakfast?" Xavier asked, stepping into his room.
Alex was too busy playing the game to notice Xavier was even in the room.
"Hey I'm talking to you!" Xavier raised his voice a lil which caught his attention.
Alex turned his head to see what he wanted.
"You brush your teeth when you woke up before getting on the game" Xavier questioned him.
"Yes dad I'm not a baby" Alex rolled his eyes.
Xavier shook his head chuckling to himself. He acting like he grown since he turned four years old a few days ago.
"Whatchu want for breakfast?" Xavier asked again.
"Ummm pancakes, bacon, and eggs"
"Ok come take a break from the game and come help" Xavier gestured for him to come over.
"Can't I play some more?" Alex pouted.
"Nope let's go you been playing non stop since last night."
"Ok" Alex sighed putting the game down following behind Xavier into the kitchen to see Ty eating a strawberry pop tart.
"Yo I got some stuff I need to take care of I'll catch ya later" Ty dapped him up.
"Yeah no problem" Xavier nod his head checking the time on the oven. "Wait 7 in the morning" he raised an eyebrow at him.
"Yeah I gotta job and my boss gon go crazy if I'm late"
"Oh shii that's great man" Xavier grinned dapping him up again.
"Yeah I'll see you later tho" Ty spoke before leaving the kitchen.
"Ok Alex lets makes some food" Xavier sighed rubbing his hands together.
"Can I crack the eggs?" Alex questioned.
"Yes but the eggs are last were doing the pancakes first" Xavier told him.
"Ok"
"Can I get ice cream for breakfast instead?"
"Does your momma let you get ice cream for breakfast" Xavier questioned him.
Alex shook his head.
"Ok let's go but don't tell your momma we got some ok?" Xavier pointed a finger at him.
"Ok you're the best daddy in the whole world!" Alex hugged his leg.
"Alright Alex go and get ready." Xavier chuckled.
BROOKLYN, NY📍
"Lemme out!!" Diamond yelled, kicking and screaming trying to get out of the the chair she was currently tied down to.
"Yo boss she up" a six foot tall nigga standing off to the side of her spoke through the walkie talkie in his hand.
Diamond looked around her surroundings taking everything in. The whole room was dim lit filled with labeled boxes of hard drugs and the smell of weed was strong in the air.
The sound of a door opening and a beam of light peaking through it caught her attention.
"I'll take it over from here" Dre dapped up the guy before he left the room.
"You want some water?" he offered her a bottle.
"I don't want shit from you" Diamond spit out.
Dre stopped down infront of her clasping his hands together. "I didn't wanna do this Diamond." he had a look of sympathy and his face.
"So don't just lemme go and I won't speak about this"
"Its not that simple. You've seen my business and you're a risk I'm not willing to take. If news get out about any of this I'll end up in jail and we don't want that do we?"
"Who will I tell? I just want to get home to my son. Please " she pleaded her voice cracking.
Dre caressed her cheek. "Im sorry but it has to be this way."
"Don't touch me" she jerked her head more to the side.
Then came a hard slap to her cheek which stinged like a bitch. "Your mine therefore I'll touch you wherever I want" he growled.
Diamond looked at him with pure disgust and hatred in her eyes.
"Boss this stupid ass phone keep ringing in my ears. Some guy named Xavier." a voice spoke through the walkie talkie hanging from a string around his neck.
"Yo lil boyfriend must be wondering where you are now" Dre smirked squatting up.
"He'll find me I know he will"
"Ha find you?" he chuckled. "Were deep in the trenches but lets say if he does I got fifteen men upstairs equipped with guns. If he takes one step inside this house he's dead"
"You think athlete boy gonna save you huh. He ain't bout this life. He can't do nun to save yo ass which finna be dead soon if you won't give me what I want"
"What do you want from me?" Diamond cried out.
"I want to be in your life is that so hard for you to consider?" he cocked his head to the side.
"But you have me in ya life already just please please don't kill me" she whimpered.
"You think a friendship is what I want huh" he yelled in her face clenching his jaw. " I want a family with you. I'm suppose to be the only man in ya life but naw you bitch ass babydaddy keep getting in the way so you know what I'm finna do" he took out a glock out the waistband of his jeans.
"I'm finna shoot his ass" he lightly tapped on the trigger.
"No please no" Diamond begged, tears streaming downcher face.
"Well you gonna do what I say bitch" he pointed the gun at her.
Without another word he left the room.
"Sorry boss I'm late I got caught up in traffic" Ty came running through the hallway.
"Next time you late I'm a put a cap in yo head." Dre mugged him. I got something for you to do get the bitch from down there" he pointed to the door he exited out of. "And bring her to my office"
"Ight boss but why she lockee away from the rest" Ty questioned scrunching up his eyebrows.
"Do what I say and stop asking questions."
"Ight" Ty replied before entering the room.
Diamond held her breath once she saw someone was coming in the room again.
"Oh my god what the fuck are you doing here Diamond" Ty asked once he spotted her in the chair.
"Ty" Diamond's eyes widened. "W-what are you doing here?"
"Fuck" he whispered clasping his hands on the back of his head. What have he gotten himself into.
"Please Ty you have to help me get outta here" Diamond begged.
"I-I can't" he avoided her stare proceeding to untie her wrists from behind the chair. If he did he would be dead.
"C'mon lets go" he lift her up by the arm.
