It Ain't Easy

Chapter 10

A short recap from last chapter since some couldn't read it.

Jalen and Erica do what they do best. While Erica and Sasha were at the mall they ran into Elaine and Erica and Elaine fought. Both were arrested and are now in a holding cell.

-Jalen

I huffed as I picked my keys up off Erica's table. Her ass done went and I got into a fight and now I have to bail her out. The crazy part is she fought her own sister which happens to be my baby moms. I felt that I owed it to my son to bail her out to. I shook my head thinking about the type of cash I was about to spend because they ass wanted to "disturb the peace". I mean the money wasn't the problem but giving it to these fuck niggas at the jail is.

"I'm here to post bail", I said to the women at the service booth.

She looked at me up and down before looking back into my face. Her face read disgust and I'm pretty sure mine did to.

"Name?"

"Erica and Elaine Johnson."

I watched as she typed on her computer than looked back up at me with a smirk. "That will be 11,000 dollars."

I smirked cause I guess she thought a lil nigga like me ain't have it. I quickly pulled out the cash and sat it in the desk. She looked at it wide eyed before typing. "The bail has been posted but it will take at least 30 minutes for them to be released."

I nodded before going to sit in one of the chairs. I pulled out my phone and called little man.

"Wassup little man", I said when I heard his little voice.

"Hi daddy, I miss you."

"I miss you too buddy, you having fun at Granny's house?"

"Yes! We made cookies and drank milk with them", he said. He was so excited and it brought a smile to my face, everything I do is for this lil boy.

"Really? That's nice, you being good for Granny?"

"Of course, when are you coming to get me daddy", his little voice whined.

"First thing tomorrow?"

"So at 12 a.m", I laughed this little boy was to smart for his age.

"Nah, around 10 and we can do whatever you want."

"Can we go back to Aunt Erica's house, I like her house."

"Of course little man, whatever you want."

"Okay daddy, I have to go. Granny is taking me to the park", he said before hanging up.

I laughed as I removed the phone from my face. That little boy was something else. I looked up once I heard heels clacking my way. I knew it wasn't Erica so it had to be Elaine.

"Ugh thank you, I knew you would come get me. Your little stripper decided to attack me", Elaine said standing in front of me.

"Lie again bitch", Erica said from behind her. Elaine's head swung around so fast then she turned to stare at me.

"Really nigga, first your fucking her now your bailing her out. You have got to be kidding me", she fumed.

"Fuck out my face with that shit", I said standing up pushing past her.

I got up and walked out of the police station with them following behind me. I got in the car after Erica did and Elaine just stood there.

"You gone get in or not", I asked rolling the window down.

"Tell her to get out the front", she stood with her arms folded.

"Girl get yo ass in the damn car and stop being petty for yo ass be walking."

"Fine", she huffed before getting in the back seat and slamming my door.
"And don't be slamming my shit!" She rolled her eyes and didn't say anything. I saw Erica smirk in the rearview mirror and I shook my head.

First I dropped of Elaine after going through hell with her. Her mouth was too much and I had to keep Erica from jumping on her again.

Once we pulled up to Erica's house we got out and she went straight to the kitchen. Fat ass, I don't know how she eat so much but still stay her size.

I kicked off my shoes and sat on the couch pulling out my phone. I saw a text from one of my workers saying it was a problem at one of the trap houses. I sighed before telling him I was on my way.

"Where you going", she asked as I slipped my shoes on.

"Something went down at the trap and now I gotta go see what it is", I sighed. To be honest this shit was getting tiring.

"Oh okay, I guess I'll see you a little later then", she said eating a sandwich.

"Alright baby", I said pulling her into me. I know we wasn't together but this my baby. I pecked her lips a couple of times before walking out.

I hopped in my whip and rode all the way to the trap on the north side.

I walked in and everything seemed to be moving smoothly until I got to the office. I walked in and seen the head man of the trap sitting at my desk with somebody tied up in a corner. I shook my head cause I already knew what was going on.

"Who sent you youngin", I asked pulling out a blunt. I lit it and took a seat behind the desk. He stood silent and I nodded.

"So we playing the quiet game huh?" I blew the smoke into the air and pulled out my gun.

"Fine then", I aimed the gun at his knee and shot.

He yelped in pain and tears fell from his eyes. I shook my head soft ass nigga.

"You wanna tell now", I smirked. He mumbled something but it was barely audible. "Speak up young nigga."

"Angie", he grunted. I laughed I shook my head.

"Number one rule yougin, loyalty and obviously you ain't got none." I aimed the gun between his eyes and fired two shots as he body slumped to the floor.

-Omniscient

Meanwhile at the park with Xavier and Grandma Shannon a mysterious car circled the park but none of the parents took it into consideration.

"Higher Granny higher", Xavier laughed as he swung on the swing.

The two were having a great time bonding but Zay really wanted to be with his father. He was excited that he would get to see him and Aunt Erica tomorrow.

"Granny can we get ice cream", Xavier asked pointing towards the ice cream truck.

Shannon stopped the swing and waited for  Xavier to get off. She held his hand as they walked over to the ice cream truck.

"Wait right here", Shannon said as she walked in line. Just as she was ordering everyone heard a round of shots ring out. Everyone screamed and Shannon turned around swiftly.

She ran over to where she left Xavier to see his limp body on the ground with blood pouring from his back.

"NOOOO", she yelled as she held his body. "Somebody help me", she screamed as people stood watching.

Xavier tried to speak but choked on his own blood. He felt woozy and soon he fell into darkness.
