(Vonne POV)

I ran up the concrete steps as fast as I could as the sound of my heels lit up the dark street. I panted and banged my fist lightly on the building door while also taking glances around the street to make sure no one was around.

"Cmon...open the door please hurry.." I muttered to myself as I slowly started to panic. The door finally opened as my friend Canary stood in front of the doorway.

"Holy shit Vonnie!" She said as she quickly pulled me inside and locked the door. The 3 of my other friends were walking around. 2 of them were taking off their lingerie because they just got back from work and the other one was on the couch.

I exhaled out of relief and started taking off my thigh high heeled boots.

"Vonnie why the hell are you just now getting home? Do you not know that Mike is looking for you idiot?!" She scolded. It still irks me that everyone in the house was taller than me so I felt like a child even though I'm 27.

"Look I know! I didn't think it would get out of hand!" I said while making my way over to the couch.

"Michael is a psycho and when it comes to butting into his business just once he'll go far as to killing you" Zink said while carrying her shoes and going upstairs.

"Look as soon as we get enough money to fly out to Vegas we will be home free! And for right now all we can do is try to survive the streets because Michael literally has eyes and ears EVERYWHERE" My friend Proxie said. She then turned around and continued watching tv. I furrowed my eyebrows and sat on the armrest of the couch.

"How come you didn't go to work today?" I asked her.

"I didn't have a ride back here and I am not brave enough to walk THESE streets at night" She replied with her eyes still on the TV. I raised my eyebrows.

"Touché" I said. I got up and grabbed an apple from off the counter.

"Vonne, please be careful out there tomorrow because you've already missed days of work and Mike is pissed. Don't you remember what happened to Candy when she missed 3 days? You're messing with his money here." Canary said, getting into the "Mom" role as usual.

I started getting flashbacks of the scene that happened with Candy and Mike. She walked in his office and never came back out.

"I'll try to be...." Then a lightbulb went off in my head.

"OU! GUYS" they all turned their heads towards me. I already know what I'm about to say is going to be absolutely crazy.

"How about....we try stealing from Mike?" I smiled with my mouth open while glancing around the room at everyone, hoping they'd agree with me.

It was 3 seconds of dead silence as everyone just stared at me.

"Hey guys, how about we all shoot ourselves? I mean if we steal from Mike we'll get the same outcome" Proxie asked. I rolled my eyes and sighed.

As I started walking up the stairs like a kid who just got grounded, I kind of seen the bright side of Michael but I could never tell my friends what happened between us or they wouldn't trust me anymore. They'll start thinking I'm a little spy for Michael but really it's like a love-hate relationship.
